Phase 6 — deftype: named type aliases, unions, records, and parameterized
types. Type definitions stored as plain dicts in *type-registry*. Includes
resolve-type for named type resolution, substitute-type-vars for
parameterized instantiation, subtype-resolved? for structural record
subtyping, and infer-type extension for record field type inference via get.
Phase 7 — defeffect: static effect annotations. Effects stored in
*effect-registry* and *effect-annotations*. Supports :effects keyword on
defcomp and define. Gradual: unannotated = all effects, empty list = pure.
check-body-walk validates effect containment at call sites.
Standard types defined: (maybe a), type-def, diagnostic, prim-param-sig.
Standard effects declared: io, mutation, render.
84/84 type system tests pass. Both Python and JS bootstrappers succeed.

New spec file signals.sx defines the signal runtime: signal, computed,
effect, deref, reset!, swap!, batch, dispose, and island scope tracking.
eval.sx: defisland special form + island? type predicate in eval-call.
boundary.sx: signal primitive declarations (Tier 3).
render.sx: defisland in definition-form?.
adapter-dom.sx: render-dom-island with reactive context, reactive-text,
reactive-attr, reactive-fragment, reactive-list helpers.
adapter-html.sx: render-html-island for SSR with data-sx-island/state.
adapter-sx.sx: island? handling in wire format serialization.
special-forms.sx: defisland declaration with docs and example.

The entire parallel CSS system (StyleValue type, style dictionary,
keyword atom resolver, content-addressed class generation, runtime
CSS injection, localStorage caching) was built but never adopted —
the codebase already uses :class strings with defcomp components
for all styling. Remove ~3,000 lines of unused infrastructure.
Deleted:
- cssx.sx spec module (317 lines)
- style_dict.py (782 lines) and style_resolver.py (254 lines)
- StyleValue type, defkeyframes special form, build-keyframes platform fn
- Style dict JSON delivery (<script type="text/sx-styles">), cookies, localStorage
- css/merge-styles primitives, inject-style-value, fnv1a-hash platform interface
Simplified:
- defstyle now binds any value (string, function) — no StyleValue type needed
- render-attrs no longer special-cases :style StyleValue → class conversion
- Boot sequence skips style dict init step
Preserved:
- tw.css parsing + CSS class delivery (SX-Css headers, <style id="sx-css">)
- All component infrastructure (defcomp, caching, bundling, deps)
- defstyle as a binding form for reusable class strings

- Both bootstrappers (JS + Python) now gate shift/reset behind --extensions
continuations flag. Without it, using reset/shift errors at runtime.
- JS bootstrapper: extracted Continuation/ShiftSignal types, sfReset/sfShift,
continuation? primitive, and typeOf handling into CONTINUATIONS_JS constant.
Extension wraps evalList, aserSpecial, and typeOf post-transpilation.
- Python bootstrapper: added special-forms.sx validation cross-check against
eval.sx dispatch, warns on mismatches.
- Added shared/sx/ref/special-forms.sx: 36 declarative form specs with syntax,
docs, tail-position, and examples. Used by bootstrappers for validation.
- Added ellipsis (...) support to both parser.py and parser.sx spec.
- Updated continuations essay to reflect optional extension architecture.
- Updated specs page and nav with special-forms.sx entry.
