refactor(proofs): decompose SwitchCaseBodyBridge axiom into proved theorem + narrower axiom
Replace the `SwitchCaseBodyBridge` axiom with: 1. `exec_switchCaseBody_continue_of_long` (proved theorem) — when dispatch guards are safe and calldata arity is sufficient, the guard prefix (comment + optional callvalue guard + calldatasize guard) of `switchCaseBody fn` steps through as a no-op, reducing execution to `fn.body` in the same state. 2. `SwitchCaseBodyBridge_body` (narrower axiom) — purely Yul-level: executing a statement list with `__has_selector` set and dispatch fuel gives the same rollback-wrapped result as total `execYulStmts` execution. Captures variable irrelevance and fuel adequacy without mentioning IR types. 3. `SwitchCaseBodyBridge` (proved theorem) — composes the above two pieces to match the original axiom interface used by `yulCodegen_preserves_semantics`. The active axiom count remains at 4, but the trusted surface is strictly smaller: the new axiom is purely Yul-level and does not mention `IRFunction`, `IRTransaction`, `execIRFunction`, `resultsMatch`, or `interpretYulRuntime`.

**Purpose**:
49-
Bridges from the single-function body equivalence theorem to the remaining matched, arity-safe runtime-dispatch execution shape (`switchCaseBody`, `__has_selector`, and rollback shaping after the dispatch guards have been proved to pass).
49+
Captures that executing a Yul statement list `body` with the `__has_selector`
50+
variable set and dispatch-level fuel gives the same rollback-wrapped result as
51+
executing `body` via the total `execYulStmts` wrapper (which uses `sizeOf`-adequate
52+
fuel without the extra variable).
53+
54+
This axiom is purely Yul-level — it does not mention IR types, transactions, or
55+
`resultsMatch`. It captures two sub-properties:
56+
1. **Variable irrelevance**: `__has_selector` is not read by generated function
57+
bodies, so setting it has no effect on execution.
58+
2. **Fuel adequacy**: dispatch-level fuel (minus the guard prefix) is at least
59+
`sizeOf body + 1`, which suffices for total execution.

**Why this is currently an axiom**:
52-
This remains the last contract-level proof gap between body-level Yul equivalence and full selector-dispatch preservation, but the theorem surface is now smaller than before.
53-
The checked theorem surface now requires both `DispatchGuardsSafe fn tx` and an explicit arity fact `fn.params.length ≤ tx.args.length`.
54-
The short-calldata failure branch is no longer axiomatized: it is proved by the checked helper lemmas `execYulStmtsFuel_cons_continue`, `execYulStmtsFuel_cons_revert`, `exec_callvalueGuard_noop`, `exec_calldatasizeGuard_revert_of_short_noWrap`, `exec_switchCaseBody_revert_of_short`, and `SwitchCaseBodyBridge_short`.
55-
What remains axiomatized is only the matched-case bridge from `interpretYulRuntime fn.body ...` to executing the full `switchCaseBody fn` wrapper after the value guard and calldata-size guard are known to pass.
56-
The remaining blocker is therefore narrower and local: proving the success-path prefix normalization around the leading dispatch comment, optional `callvalueGuard`, and successful `calldatasizeGuard` no-op so the proof can hand control to the already-checked body equivalence theorem without an axiom.
62+
Variable irrelevance requires showing that `fn.body` never reads `__has_selector`,
63+
and fuel adequacy requires a monotonicity property over execution fuel. Both are
64+
understood but not yet mechanized.
5765

58-
**Risk**: Medium.
66+
The former `SwitchCaseBodyBridge` axiom has been decomposed: the guard-prefix
67+
stepping (comment, optional `callvalueGuard`, `calldatasizeGuard`) is now fully
68+
proved by `exec_switchCaseBody_continue_of_long`, and `SwitchCaseBodyBridge`
69+
itself is now a theorem that composes the proved guard stepping with this axiom.
70+
The short-calldata failure branch was already proved by
71+
`exec_switchCaseBody_revert_of_short` and `SwitchCaseBodyBridge_short`.
72+
73+
**Risk**: Low. This axiom is purely Yul-level and strictly narrower than its
74+
predecessor.

/-! ### switchCaseBody body bridge axiom
644+
645+
After the guard prefix has been proved to pass (by `exec_switchCaseBody_continue_of_long`),
646+
the remaining gap is connecting fuel-bounded execution of `fn.body` in a state
647+
where `__has_selector = 1` to the total `interpretYulRuntime fn.body ...`.
648+
649+
This axiom captures two sub-properties:
650+
1. **Variable irrelevance** — `__has_selector` is not read by `fn.body`, so
651+
`execYulStmtsFuel fuel' (state.setVar "__has_selector" 1) fn.body` behaves
652+
identically to execution without the extra variable.
653+
2. **Fuel adequacy** — `fuel'` (derived from dispatch-level fuel minus the
654+
guard prefix) is at least `sizeOf fn.body + 1`, which suffices for
655+
`execYulStmts` (the total execution wrapper).
656+
657+
Neither sub-property introduces IR-level types: this axiom is purely Yul-level.
