fix: follow-up fixes from develop commit review (2026-05-06)

Description

What is the purpose of this pull request?

This pull request:

• Follows up on commits merged to develop between 2026-05-05 15:11 PT and 2026-05-06 04:46 PT (range 74e79f9..1481c95, 25 commits, 121 files) with high-signal corrections to the two new ndarray/base packages introduced in the window.

Fixes grouped by package:

ndarray/base/output-order (commit 52bc84e)

• Fix benchmark in lib/node_modules/@stdlib/ndarray/base/output-order/benchmark/benchmark.js (52bc84e) where the loop body erroneously wrapped arr[ i%arr.length ] in an extra array literal, causing outputOrder to receive [ [ ndA, ndB ] ] and always fall back to the default order; drop the outer brackets so the benchmark exercises the intended code path.
• Fix argument spacing in lib/node_modules/@stdlib/ndarray/base/output-order/benchmark/benchmark.js (52bc84e): three array() calls were missing the required space before the closing parenthesis per the stdlib style guide.
• Fix $ExpectType annotation in lib/node_modules/@stdlib/ndarray/base/output-order/docs/types/test.ts (52bc84e): Layout was incorrect; return type is Order, consistent with ndarray/base/order conventions.

ndarray/base/consensus-order (commit b3ec3d3)

• Fix lib/node_modules/@stdlib/ndarray/base/consensus-order/docs/types/test.ts (b3ec3d3): rename copy-paste alias consensusLayout to consensusOrder and correct $ExpectType annotation from Layout to Order.

Any other information relevant to this pull request? This may include screenshots, references, and/or implementation notes.

Validation. The window's union diff was scanned by four independent reviewers (two style-guide compliance audits against docs/style-guides and reference packages ndarray/base/order / blas/base/ndarray/dscal; two bug audits — one diff-only, one logic/security on the introduced code). Only findings that were either reported by two or more reviewers or independently re-verifiable from the diff were retained.

Deliberately excluded.

• to-reversed-dimensions/README.md <related-links> placeholder comments: verified false positive — those markers are an established stdlib convention present in 29 other ndarray/base packages.
• consensus-order/package.json description ("Resolve the most common underlying storage layout."): subjective; the description is a complete sentence and not a clear style violation.
• Cauchy validation reorderings, C API_SUFFIX wrapper fixes, internal-utility replacements in blas/ext/{linspace,unitspace} and ndarray/concat*: reviewed and confirmed correct.

• Code generation (e.g., when writing an implementation or fixing a bug)
• Test/benchmark generation
• Documentation (including examples)
• Research and understanding

Disclosure

If you answered "yes" to using AI assistance, please provide a short disclosure indicating how you used AI assistance. This helps reviewers determine how much scrutiny to apply when reviewing your contribution. Example disclosures: "This PR was written primarily by Claude Code." or "I consulted ChatGPT to understand the codebase, but the proposed changes were fully authored manually by myself.".

This PR was prepared by Claude Code: a multi-agent review of commits merged to develop in the previous 24 hours surfaced the high-signal issues, and the fixes were applied programmatically. Each finding was cross-validated by at least two reviewers or independently re-verified against the diff before inclusion.
