style: align outliers with sibling packages in blas/ext/base

[Planeshifter]

Description

Follow-up fixes for commits merged to develop between 11fb87da (2026-05-07 13:37 -0500) and 5fd5c85c (2026-05-08 16:47 +0500). Three sibling-consistency fixes across recently-added blas/ext/base packages:

• blas/ext/base/dindex-of-column — Documentation and interface descriptions in 5fd5c85c use "stride of the first/second dimension" for matrix parameters across lib/dindex_of_column.js, docs/types/index.d.ts, README.md, and src/main.c, deviating from the established "stride length for the" terminology used in sibling packages (dindex-of-row, sindex-of-row, glast-index-of-row, slast-index-of-row) and inconsistent with vector stride language in the same JSDoc blocks. Standardized to "stride length for the" across all parameter descriptions to align with the blas/ext/base convention.

• blas/ext/base/slast-index-of-row — The error message in lib/slast_index_of_row.js and lib/slast_index_of_row.native.js (03cd59e4) lacks the lower bound specification that sindex-of-row and sibling packages include; updated both files and their JSDoc @throws tags to use the form 'invalid argument. Fifth argument must be greater than or equal to max(1,%d). Value: \%d`.'with both stride andLDA` parameters.

• blas/ext/base/glast-index-of-row — 7c02336d has incomplete stride validation messaging in lib/main.js: the runtime throw omits the required lower bound and the @throws tag lacks context. Aligned both the error format string and documentation with the sibling gindex-of-row implementation, which provides the full constraint max(1,N) for auditability.

Validation

What was checked:

• stdlib code-style compliance for the four new blas/ext/base packages (cwhere, dindex-of-column, slast-index-of-row, glast-index-of-row) and supporting commits, comparing each against established sibling packages.
• Bug scan over the diff (loop bounds, stride math, NaN/inf handling, N-API argument validation, row-major vs column-major branching, negative-stride paths, format-string arity, JSDoc/runtime contract agreement).

What was deliberately excluded:

• Anything requiring interpretation, judgement calls, or context outside the diff window to validate.
• The auto-generated REPL data dump (ddb2fb7e) and TypeScript declaration auto-updates (cecfaba8, 583a8336) — spot-checked only.
• Subjective preferences, "could be cleaner" suggestions, and nitpicks.

Disclosure

This PR was authored end-to-end by Claude Code as part of an automated 24-hour commit-review pass. Findings were produced by parallel reviewer agents, independently re-verified against sibling packages before any edit, and limited to high-signal sibling-consistency fixes. A maintainer should audit before promoting out of draft.
