js-on-sx: js-new-call accepts list-typed constructor returns

new Array(1,2,3) was returning an empty wrapper object because
js-new-call only honoured a non-undefined return when
(type-of ret) === "dict"; SX lists (representing JS arrays) were
silently discarded. Widened the check to accept "list" too.
Fixes new Array(1,2,3).length, String(new Array(1,2,3)), and any
constructor whose body returns a list. built-ins/String:
67/99 → 69/99 (canonical). conformance.sh: 148/148.

+- 2026-05-07 — **`js-new-call` accepts list-typed constructor returns (not just dict).** `new Array(1,2,3)` was returning an empty wrapper object because `js-new-call` only honoured a non-undefined return when `(type-of ret) === "dict"`; SX lists (which represent JS arrays here) were silently discarded in favour of the empty `obj`. Widened the check to accept `"list"` returns. Fixes `new Array(1,2,3).length`, `String(new Array(1,2,3))`, and any constructor whose body returns a list. built-ins/String 67/99 → 69/99 (canonical), 70/99 → 71/99 (isolated). conformance.sh: 148/148.

 - 2026-05-07 — **`js-num-from-string` uses `pow` (float) instead of `js-pow-int` for the exponent.** Numeric literals like `1e20` and `100000000000000000000` were parsing as `-1457092405402533888` because `js-pow-int 10 20` overflows int64 (10^20 > 2^63). The OCaml SX `pow` primitive uses float-domain power and produces `1e+20` correctly. Replaced the single `(js-pow-int 10 e)` call in `js-num-from-string` with `(pow 10 e)`. Fixes `String(1e20)`, `String(1e30)`, `String(100000000000000000000)`, etc. With isolation built-ins/String 67/99 → 70/99. conformance.sh: 148/148.
 
 - 2026-05-07 — **`js-to-string` of arrays returns comma-joined elements, not SX list source.** `String([1,2,3])` was returning `"(1 2 3)"` (SX `(str v)` formatting) — should be `"1,2,3"`. Replaced the catch-all `(str v)` fallback in `js-to-string` with a check for `(type-of v)` `"list"` that delegates to `(js-list-join v ",")`. Fixes `String(new Array(...))`, `"" + arr`, and any implicit array-to-string coercion. built-ins/String 65/99 → 67/99. conformance.sh: 148/148.
