feat(joinir): Phase 190 - LoopExitBinding boxification

Formalize exit PHI → variable_map reconnection with explicit LoopExitBinding
structure. Eliminates hardcoded variable names and prepares for Pattern 4+
multi-carrier support.

Key changes:

1. **New LoopExitBinding struct**:
   - carrier_name: String (e.g., "sum", "count")
   - join_exit_value: ValueId (JoinIR exit value)
   - host_slot: ValueId (variable_map destination)
   Makes it explicit: WHICH variable, FROM where, TO where.

2. **Updated JoinInlineBoundary**:
   - Replaced implicit host_outputs: Vec<ValueId>
   - With explicit exit_bindings: Vec<LoopExitBinding>
   - Old APIs marked #[deprecated] for backward compatibility

3. **Pattern 3 now uses explicit bindings**:
   Before: boundary.host_outputs = vec![sum_var_id]  // implicit
   After:  boundary.exit_bindings = vec![LoopExitBinding {
       carrier_name: "sum".to_string(),
       join_exit_value: ValueId(18),
       host_slot: sum_var_id,
   }]

4. **merge_joinir_mir_blocks() updated**:
   - Consumes exit_bindings instead of bare ValueIds
   - Enhanced debug output shows carrier names
   - Validates carrier name matches variable_map expectations

Benefits:
- Self-documenting code: bindings explain themselves
- Multi-carrier ready: Pattern 4+ just extend the vec![]
- Type-safe: No implicit semantics
- Debuggable: Explicit carrier name in logs

Test status:
- Build: ✅ SUCCESS (0 errors, 47 warnings)
- Pattern 3: ✅ PASS (no regressions)
- Backward compatibility: ✅ Maintained via #[deprecated]

Prepare for Phase 191: Pattern Router Table and Phase 192: JoinLoopTrace
