Pin the two native probes against drift

The split-literal squash is implemented twice: inline in apply.sh's runtime probe
and as compat._squash in the static checker. That subtlety already caused one
silent bug (the probe concluded iX had removed the nesting guard, which means
'retire the module'). Both are now exercised against the same inputs, including
the split-across-literals form stock actually uses.
