+/// frozen, plain-number for raw-f64, and the process-global inline-enable flag
+/// unset). Everything else — first-time shapes, typed-feedback enabled,
+/// descriptors in use, polymorphic / non-pointer receivers, frozen / accessor /
+/// non-writable / setter-in-chain — falls here.
+///
+/// The body reproduces TODAY'S full semantics for every case the inline compare
+/// doesn't cover:
+///
+///   1. Run the same `js_typed_feedback_class_field_set_guard` (so the typed-
+///      feedback observation/recording is identical to the old inline path).
+///   2. On a guard PASS (e.g. typed-feedback now says fast-ok, or a first-time
+///      shape that matches the contract), do the SAME slot store the inline
+///      fast path would have done:
+///        * `require_raw_f64` slot → a bare `f64` store into the field slot
+///          (the inline path emits a plain `store double` with no GC barrier —
+///          the slot is pointer-free by typed-shape descriptor and the guard
+///          already proved `is_plain_number_bits(value)`).
+///        * boxed slot → `js_object_set_field`, which performs the identical

+///          inline `emit_jsvalue_slot_store_on_block` emits.
+///   3. On a guard FAIL, record the fallback (matching the old inline fallback
+///      block's `js_typed_feedback_record_fallback_call`) and route through the
+///      by-name setter `js_object_set_field_by_name`, which handles
+///      frozen / accessor / non-writable / setter-in-chain semantics.

+/// `class_field_set` fallback block used to emit, collapsed into ONE call so the
+/// cold arm costs a single instruction per site instead of two.
+///
+/// Byte-identical semantics to the old inline fallback:
+///   1. `js_typed_feedback_record_fallback_call(site_id)` — record the miss.
+///   2. `js_object_set_field_by_name(obj_bits, key_raw, value)` — route the
+///      write by name (handles frozen / accessor / non-writable / setter-in-
+///      chain). `obj_bits` keeps the full NaN-box tag (the by-name setter
+///      inspects it for proxy/exotic dispatch before masking to the heap
+///      address); `key_raw` is the POINTER_MASK-stripped key handle.
+///
+/// Cold-path only, so the extra call frame has zero hot-loop cost; the win is
+/// purely in emitted IR size (2 calls + operand list → 1 call per set site).
