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

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