fix(joinir): Phase 132 P1 - k_exit continuation classification fix

Problem: k_exit with TailCall(post_k) was classified as skippable continuation,
causing post_k block to become unreachable.

Root cause:
- Continuation classification was name-based ("join_func_2")
- Skippable continuation check didn't examine function body
- k_exit with tail call to post_k had its block skipped during merge

Solution:
- Check function body structure before classifying as skippable
- Non-skippable pattern: continuation with TailCall to another function
- Properly emit tail call as Jump instruction

Changes:
- src/mir/builder/control_flow/joinir/merge/mod.rs:
  - Add structural check in is_skippable_continuation()
  - Detect TailCall(other_func) pattern
  - Skip only if function is truly empty (1 block, Return only)

- src/mir/builder/control_flow/joinir/merge/instruction_rewriter.rs:
  - Improve k_exit continuation handling
  - Properly rewrite TailCall → Jump for post_k

Test results:
- Phase 132 LLVM EXE: PASS (exit code 3)
- Phase 132 VM: PASS
- Phase 131 regression: PASS
- Phase 97 regression: PASS
