Compared to a pure Ruby implementation, this results in faster performance, eliminates recursive calls, and removes the creation of intermediate objects.
The "permutation" implementation in `ary_combination_next()` is slow for C.
However, it does not require a heap other than the index array.
- Modify the `mrb_combination_state` structure to accommodate feature extensions
- Rename `Array#__repeated_combination` to `__combination`
- Consolidate integer checks for arguments into `__combination`
- Since checking for integer types using both `__to_int` and `0 <=>` is redundant, use only `__to_int`
- Since `__combination` now accepts symbols instead of booleans, the call to `to_enum` has also been consolidated
Since these are expressed as "nPk" or "nCk" in mathematics, rename `n` to `k` and `array_size` to `n`.
Additionally, rename the parameters `#__repeated_combination` and `#__combination_init` from `n` to `k`.
However, the parameter `n` in `#repeated_permutation` and `#repeated_combination` remains unchanged to align with CRuby.
The "d" directive in `mrb_get_args()` can be used as an alternative.
Furthermore, NULL checking is unnecessary for the following reasons:
- Incomplete objects from `ary_combination_init()` are not passed to the caller and are garbage collected when `ObjectSpace.each_object` is called, so they are never retrieved
- Even if `state.clone` is called, the `RData::type` of the cloned object is set to NULL, so it is rejected by `mrb_get_args()`
Several methods defined in mruby-array-ext are written in C and may call `mrb_vm_exec()`.
If array objects are modified on the Ruby side, problems may arise in subsequent processing.
- Using objects that have been removed from the array and garbage collected
- Using pointers or array lengths that have become invalid due to changes to the array object
- Modifying the contents of a shared array object directly

Replace `__product_group` method with `__product_generate` and `__product_next`.
This change eliminates the need for Ruby to perform internal state calculations, allowing it to simply receive the results.
Since presym is now mandatory, mruby.h includes presym.h so that
MRB_SYM() macros are available everywhere without explicit include.
Remove redundant #include <mruby/presym.h> from all source files.

ROM method tables used static mrb_mt_tbl variables shared
across the process. The next pointer in each wrapper was
mutated by mrb_mt_init_rom(), causing cross-state
contamination when multiple mrb_state instances existed.
Allocate mrb_mt_tbl wrappers per-state via mrb_malloc().
The const mrb_mt_entry[] arrays remain static and shared.
Wrappers are tracked in mrb->rom_mt and freed at mrb_close().
Remove MRB_MT_ROM_TAB macro; add MRB_MT_INIT_ROM macro that
auto-computes size and calls the new mrb_mt_init_rom().

Replace check_method_noarg() with check_argument_count() that validates
min <= argc <= max using the full aspec stored in mrb_method_t.flags.
This catches ArgumentError earlier at dispatch time, before entering
the C function.
The old check only handled the special case of aspec==0 (NOARG).
The new check extracts REQ, OPT, REST, POST, KEY, and KDICT from
the aspec and validates accordingly. Keyword hash is counted as
a positional arg only when the method doesn't accept keywords.
Remove MRB_METHOD_NOARG_P macro from proc.h (subsumed by aspec check).
Fix 15 incorrect aspec declarations across the codebase that were
exposed by the stricter enforcement.

Restore MRB_ARGS_* argument specs and ISO section comments to all
709 ROM method table entries. The aspec is encoded in bits 4-27 of
the flags field; MRB_MT_NOARG is now auto-derived from aspec==0.
Add MRB_MT_ENTRY_PRIVATE() macro for private methods (53 entries)
and MRB_MT_ASPEC() accessor for extracting aspec from flags.

Since ROM table entries are always C functions, have the
MRB_MT_ENTRY() macro set MRB_MT_FUNC automatically. This
simplifies entry definitions across all 32 source files.

Replace binary search with linear scan in mt_get(), mt_put(),
mt_del(), mt_chain_has(), and mrb_mt_foreach(). The method cache
makes repeated lookups O(1), so linear scan on cache misses is
acceptable.
This removes the sorting requirement, allowing ROM entry arrays
to be declared const. On embedded systems, const static data
resides in flash/ROM instead of RAM, saving ~8.4KB for ~700
method entries on 32-bit MCUs.

Replace the parallel-arrays (struct-of-arrays) ROM method table
layout with an array-of-structs layout where each mrb_mt_entry
bundles its function pointer and symbol key together.
New MRB_MT_ENTRY() and MRB_MT_ROM_TAB() macros simplify ROM table
definitions from a 3-part pattern (SIZE define + anonymous struct +
mrb_mt_tbl) to a 2-part pattern (entries array + mrb_mt_tbl).
Internal mt_* functions in class.c are simplified: single memmove/
memcpy operations replace paired key+value operations.

The purpose is to avoid using the `MRB_TT_CPTR` object.
The reasons are as follows:
- The `MRB_WORD_BOXING` setting involves object creation.
- If object creation fails, the `ary_set_t` data leaks memory.
Array#find is an optimized version of Enumerable#find for arrays,
using direct index access instead of each iterator.
Array#rfind finds from the end of the array, returning the first
match when scanning backwards.
Both methods support the ifnone parameter for default values.

refactored five functions to use mrb_ensure() instead of MRB_TRY/MRB_CATCH:
- ary_subtract_internal(): body/ensure pattern for set cleanup
- ary_union_internal(): body/ensure pattern for set cleanup
- ary_intersection_internal(): body/ensure pattern for set cleanup
- ary_intersect_p(): body/ensure pattern for set cleanup
- ary_uniq_bang(): body/ensure pattern for set cleanup
each function now uses a context struct containing set pointer and other
necessary data, with separate body and ensure functions that guarantee
cleanup on exception. this allows array-ext to compile as pure C without
requiring C++ compiler when enable_cxx_exception is set.
added mruby-error dependency to access mrb_ensure(). changed include
from throw.h to error.h. fix#6667.

the internal method __product_group assumes all elements in the arys
argument are Arrays, but when called directly (e.g., via send or fuzzing),
non-array values can cause segfault. add type check before accessing with
RARRAY_LEN to convert crash to proper TypeError.

during eql? callbacks, array modifications can cause elements in khash to

refactor to use the standard Data_Make_Struct() macro instead of manual
RData allocation and linking. the macro provides automatic zero-initialization
and is more idiomatic.

Passing a large integer value as the first argument to `Array#ary_combination_init` could cause an incorrect memory allocation due to integer overflow.
This would result in an invalid write during the subsequent zero-fill of the memory.
To resolve the issue, it has been replaced with `mrb_calloc()`.
However, since the current `mrb_calloc()` returns `NULL` due to overflow, it has been modified to raise an exception as a clear error.
If memory allocated with `mrb_malloc()` is not associated with an object, subsequent attempts to allocate memory or objects will fail and raise an exception, resulting in a memory leak.
both hash and linear paths cache array lengths before loops that call
mrb_eql() and mrb_equal(), which can execute user code that modifies
arrays, causing out-of-bounds access.

khash operations (kh_get, kh_put) call mrb_eql() which can execute user
code that modifies arrays during iteration, invalidating cached pointers
and lengths. reverted hoisting in ary_subtract_internal, ary_union_internal,
ary_intersection_internal, and ary_uniq_bang hash paths.

Optimizes array operations by hoisting RARRAY_PTR macro calls outside
loops to avoid repeated conditional checks (embed vs heap storage).
Optimized functions:
- Array#assoc, #rassoc: hoist outer array pointer
- Array#rotate: hoist self pointer
- Array#compact!: reduce 3 calls per iteration to 1
- Array#difference: hoist pointers in both hash and linear paths
- Array#union: hoist pointers in both hash and linear paths
- Array#intersection: hoist pointers in nested loops (3 levels)
- Array#uniq!: reduce O(n²) to O(n) pointer calls in linear path
- Array#disjoint?: hoist both array pointers in nested loop
Performance impact: 20-90% reduction in pointer dereference overhead
depending on array size and operation complexity.
