refactor(joinir): Extract common carrier update validation to reduce Pattern2/4 duplication

## Summary

- **130 lines of duplicate code eliminated** (66 from Pattern2 + 64 from Pattern4)
- **40 lines net reduction** (130 duplicates - 90 new common code)
- **New utility function**: `CommonPatternInitializer::check_carrier_updates_allowed()`

## Changes

### Added
- `common_init.rs`: New `check_carrier_updates_allowed()` function (90 lines)
  - Validates carrier updates allow only simple expressions (Const, Variable, StringLiteral)
  - Rejects complex expressions (method calls, nested BinOp)
  - Shared by Pattern2 and Pattern4

### Refactored
- `pattern2_with_break.rs`: Simplified `can_lower()` (-66 lines)
  - Removed 60-line duplicate carrier validation logic
  - Now calls `CommonPatternInitializer::check_carrier_updates_allowed()`

- `pattern4_with_continue.rs`: Simplified `can_lower()` (-64 lines)
  - Removed 60-line duplicate carrier validation logic
  - Now calls `CommonPatternInitializer::check_carrier_updates_allowed()`

## Benefits

1. **Single source of truth**: All Pattern2/4 carrier validation uses same logic
2. **Maintainability**: Updates to carrier validation only need to happen once
3. **Consistency**: Uniform error messages and validation behavior
4. **Testability**: Common function can be tested independently

## Tests

✅ All tests passing (788 passed, 0 failed, 64 ignored)
