/**
 * Return the portion(s) of interval A not covered by interval B.
 *
 * - Uses `Temporal.Instant.compare` for comparison (via `.toInstant()`).
 * - Returns `[]` when B fully covers A.
 * - Returns `[{ start, end }]` when B overlaps one edge of A (or equals A).
 * - Returns `[{ start, end }, { start, end }]` when B is fully inside A with gaps on both sides.
 * - Returns `[]` if either interval is invalid (`start > end`).
 * - Returns `[]` on invalid input (wrong type, malformed strings, leap seconds).
 * - Accepts GMT calendar-annotated zoned strings (as produced by `convertZonedToCalendar`) as
 *   well as bare ISO ones — E7 (issue #152) — but **rejects a mismatched pair**: every endpoint
 *   must name the same calendar system (E7's D4-zoned). Unlike the ordering functions, this one
 *   returns a *value* the caller reads back as a datetime, and there is no principled way to pick
 *   one endpoint's calendar as the answer's. Rejection also keeps a uniform policy across all
 *   eight value-returning zoned set operations, four of which return arrays — a per-element
 *   "winner's tag" would produce a result set whose members disagree about which calendar they
 *   are in. (`intervalUnionZoned`'s existing "winning endpoint's *time zone* wins" is not
 *   precedent: the zone is a property of the surviving point, the calendar is a property of the
 *   answer.) A mismatch returns the sentinel.
 * - Output boundaries are re-derived in the resolved calendar via `formatZonedInCalendar`, never
 *   copied from an input string (E7's D7-zoned).
 * - Still rejects Temporal's own `[timeZone][u-ca=...]` RFC 9557 ordering — see
 *   `regex/calendar-zoned-date-time.ts`.

 * @param aStart ISO 8601 zoned datetime string for the first interval start
 * @param aEnd ISO 8601 zoned datetime string for the first interval end
 * @param bStart ISO 8601 zoned datetime string for the second interval start
 * @param bEnd ISO 8601 zoned datetime string for the second interval end
 * @returns array of `{ start, end }` records representing A minus B, or `[]` on invalid input
