32/// The bootstrap chunk initializes the source module once and yields either
33/// the target callable or `[fixture, target]`. [`crate::Vm`] owns invocation:
34/// it calls the optional fixture, prepends that value to the explicit
35/// arguments, invokes the target through the ordinary callable arity/type
36/// path, and runs the pipeline-finish lifecycle once around the whole entry.

39/// compiler bytecode conventions or smuggling arguments through VM globals.
