Summary

Layer 3 (second, deeper invariant): adds NullSafe (level 4) as a real checker over the existing Layer-2 query AST. A projected nullable column is null-safe iff the WHERE predicate guards it — with guards discovered by union under And and intersection under Or (disjunctive weakening). Context-sensitive and distinct from the structural InjectionFree (level 5)/SchemaBound/TypeCompat checkers.

New module Typedqliser.ABI.Invariants (imports the Layer-2 Semantics model): QueryNullSafe, sound+complete decQueryNullSafe, certifyNullSafeSound, level identity (= 4), 3 positive + 3 non-vacuity controls.

Testing

Idris2 0.7.0 --build → exit 0, zero warnings (8 modules). Adversarial: a false Guarded witness for an unguarded query was rejected. build/ removed. No believe_me/postulate/sorry.

Continues the flagship semantic-proof coverage (InjectionFree level 5,
SchemaBound level 2) with TypeCompat (level 3: "operand types compatible").
Adds `Typedqliser.ABI.TypeCompat`, to the same quality bar:

  * a small SQL type universe (`SqlType`) and a typed column environment
    (`ColEnv`) with a total `lookupType` resolver, reusing the existing
    `Query`/`Pred`/`Value` AST;
  * `ValueCompat`/`PredTypeCompat`/`QueryTypeCompat` — the proposition that
    every WHERE comparison compares a column against a value of a matching
    type (a bound parameter adopts the column's type; a literal is TInt; a
    raw splice is TText). There is no constructor for a type clash, so a
    mismatched comparison is uninhabited;
  * `decQueryTypeCompat` — a sound + complete `Dec`, so a "Proven" TypeCompat
    certificate is backed by a constructive witness and a type clash can
    never be certified;
  * `certifyTypeCompatSound` (a `Proven` verdict provably entails the
    property); `typeCompatIsLevelThree : levelNat TypeCompat = 3`;
  * positive control (a well-typed query, with the certifier computing to
    `Proven`) and negative control (`name : Text` compared to an integer
    literal provably cannot be certified).

Verified with idris2 0.7.0: `idris2 --build typedqliser-abi.ipkg` exits 0 with
zero warnings (all 7 modules). Adversarially checked — three deliberately-false
proofs (wrong level ordinal, a TInt literal certified against a TText column,
and a type-compatible witness for the clash query) are all rejected by the
type checker.

Adds Typedqliser.ABI.Invariants, a second, deeper, distinct machine-checked
property over the existing Semantics query model (Query/Pred/Value reused
verbatim). Where the Layer-2 flagship (Semantics.InjectionFree, level 5) is a
purely structural property, NullSafe (level 4) is context-sensitive: a projected
nullable column is safe only if the WHERE predicate guards it, with guards
discovered by union under And and intersection under Or (disjunctive weakening).

Includes a sound + complete decision procedure (decQueryNullSafe : Dec ...),
a certifier proven sound (certifyNullSafeSound), the level-ordinal identity
plus a proof it differs from InjectionFree, three positive controls and three
non-vacuity controls (unguarded projection, And/union, Or/intersection). Builds
clean with zero warnings; the deliberately-false adversarial proof is rejected.

No believe_me/postulate/assert_total/%hint; %default total throughout.
