The JS parser transpiled from parser.sx used tail-recursive functions
(readStrLoop, skipWs, readListLoop, etc.) which overflow the stack on
large inputs — the bootstrapper page highlights 100KB of Python and
143KB of JavaScript, producing 7620 spans in a 907KB response.
The bootstrapper now detects zero-arg self-tail-recursive functions and
emits them as while(true) loops with continue instead of recursive
calls. Tested with 150K char strings and 8000 sibling elements.
Also enables SX_USE_REF=1 in dev via x-dev-env anchor.

Two fixes for sx-browser.js (spec-compiled) vs sx.js (hand-written):
1. CSS meta tag mismatch: initCssTracking read meta[name="sx-css-hash"]
but the page template uses meta[name="sx-css-classes"]. This left
_cssHash empty, causing the server to send ALL CSS as "new" on every
navigation, appending duplicate rules that broke Tailwind responsive
ordering (e.g. menu bar layout).
2. Stale verb info after morph: execute-request used captured verbInfo
from bind time. After morph updated element attributes (e.g. during
OOB nav swap), click handlers still fired with old URLs. Now re-reads
verb info from the element first, matching sx.js behavior.
Also includes: render-expression dispatch in eval.sx, NIL guard for
preload cache in bootstrap_js.py, and helpers.py switched to
sx-browser.js.

engine.sx now contains only pure logic: parsing, morph, swap, headers,
retry, target resolution, etc. orchestration.sx contains the browser
wiring: request execution, trigger binding, SSE, boost, post-swap
lifecycle, and init. Dependency is one-way: orchestration → engine.
Bootstrap compiler gains "orchestration" as a separate adapter with
deps on engine+dom. Engine-only builds get morph/swap without the
full browser runtime.
