mruby-compiler: implement variable-sized nodes for control flows

added variable-sized nodes for control flow and string/regex variants:
- control flow: break, next, redo, retry, while_mod, until_mod
- string/regex: xstr, dxstr, dregx, heredoc, dsym
- proper integration with existing codegen patterns
- maintains backward compatibility with traditional nodes
- tested with control flow and string interpolation
