Spec (eval.sx, primitives.sx):
- Named let: (let loop ((i 0)) body) — self-recursive lambda with TCO
- letrec: mutually recursive local bindings with closure patching
- dynamic-wind: entry/exit guards with wind stack for future continuations
- eq?/eqv?/equal?: identity, atom-value, and deep structural equality
Implementation (evaluator.py, async_eval.py, primitives.py):
- Both sync and async evaluators implement all four forms
- 33 new tests covering all forms including TCO at 10k depth

Meta-circular evaluator: the SX language specifying its own semantics.
A thin bootstrap compiler per target (JS, Python, Rust) reads these
.sx files and emits a native evaluator.
Files:
- eval.sx: Core evaluator — type dispatch, special forms, TCO trampoline,
lambda/component/macro invocation, higher-order forms
- primitives.sx: Declarative specification of ~80 built-in pure functions
- render.sx: Three rendering modes (DOM, HTML string, SX wire format)
- parser.sx: Tokenizer, parser, and serializer specification
Platform-specific concerns (DOM ops, async I/O, HTML emission) are
declared as interfaces that each target implements.
