Replaces the ~130-line nested switch in ConcreteRing::promote and the ~100-line nested switch in ConcreteRing::lift with a RingVariant + toVariant helper and a two-argument std::visit lambda that calls mypromote/mylift directly on the unwrapped concrete ring references. The old lift switch had three latent bugs now fixed automatically: - ring_RRi and ring_CCi source arms were missing (those mylift specializations in aring-translate.hpp were unreachable) - The ring_CC→ring_CCC and ring_CCC→ring_CC lift template args were swapped Structural drift is now impossible: adding a new ring type requires only adding it to RingVariant and toVariant; the compiler enforces coverage.
