#36285 refactor: Use static const over inline const to work around ld64 bug

• Fix build failures on macOS developer environments caused by a platform linker bug
• Ensure affected macOS toolchains can successfully compile the project

This PR partially reverts commit fa74f58 to replace inline const declarations with static const across two files. It works around an ld64 linker bug on macOS that mishandles initialization dependencies, trading a 70 kB binary size increase for working builds.

Problem: Recent refactoring using inline const causes the macOS linker ld64 to fail due to initialization dependencies, breaking builds on macOS environments such as Nix devShells.

P2 · platform fix

• P2 because broken builds directly block macOS developers and automated tooling
• Restores reliable compilation for the upcoming 32.0 release and backports

Supported-platform build breakage blocks developers and automated tooling on macOS. The PR restores successful compilation on affected environments and is milestoned for 32.0 with a backport label.

Membership: Fixes a platform-specific linker failure on macOS toolchains.

Factors: security/stability 0, bug 2, performance 0, user value 1, leverage 1

• Ready for review, with a minimal diff and verified fixes on macOS

The change is an 8-line workaround with a clean merge state, green CI, and verified testing on affected macOS setups.

Open concerns:

• Whether the issue affects all ld64 versions or only the specific patched version packaged by Nix.

• Verified by successfully building and running tests on Nix macOS (janb84)
• Asked whether the bug affects all ld64 linkers or just Nix's patched version (fanquake)
• Recommends merging the workaround for 32.0 to unblock affected users (maflcko)

Positive, with tested verification on Nix macOS and clarification requested regarding toolchain scope

One member provided a tested ACK confirming it resolves the build on macOS with Nix, while another asked about the upstream scope of the ld64 bug.

• janb84 tested ACK: 'This builds, runs and all the test work, on (my) macOS with nix.'
• fanquake asked if ld64 generally or Nix's patched version is affected.
• maflcko noted lack of macOS hardware to isolate further and recommended merging the workaround for 32.0.
