After the Phase 286C-4 refactoring, carrier_inputs was not being
collected when a tail call's TailCallKind is ExitJump and the target
is a skippable continuation. This caused json_lint_vm to fail with:
[joinir/phase118/exit_phi/missing_carrier_phi]
exit_bindings carrier 'i' is missing from exit_carrier_phis
Root cause: The 3-stage pipeline refactoring separated Return→Jump
conversion (which collected carrier_inputs) from tail call handling.
When found_tail_call=true, the Return processing was skipped entirely,
but tail call handling didn't collect carrier_inputs.
Fix: Add carrier_inputs collection in the ExitJump (skippable) path
at lines 901-934. This mirrors the fallback logic from the Return
processing path.
Test results: 45/46 PASS (same as before refactoring)
- json_lint_vm: PASS (was FAIL)
- core_direct_array_oob_set_rc_vm: FAIL (unchanged, known issue)
