mruby does not provide `begin ... end while cond` that behave at-least-once
loop, like CRuby does. It remains in TODO.md for long time. But finally we have
implemented the behavior.
This commit introduces NODE_BEGIN as a distinct AST node type for
explicit begin...end blocks, separate from NODE_STMTS which represents
general statement sequences. This distinction will be essential for
implementing CRuby-compatible begin...end while/until constructs.
Key changes:
- Added NODE_BEGIN enum in node.h
- Added new_begin() function in parse.y using optimized cons() structure
- Modified begin...end grammar rule to generate NODE_BEGIN nodes
- Added NODE_BEGIN codegen support in codegen.c
- Added NODE_BEGIN to parser dump functionality
NODE_BEGIN uses a simpler cons() structure instead of list2() for
better memory efficiency, as it only contains a single body node.

Since we have introduced lrama, everyone can generate same `y.tab.c`
on any platform, without installing Bison. That was the reason we have
removed `y.tab.c` from the repository. But this change cause #6515 and
bothered out-of-tree builds. So we (reluctantly) added `y.tab.c` again.
This change itself does nothing good, but it is a preparation for the
future Bison to Lrama migration. As of 0.6.9, Lrama has a compatibility
issue for grammar files without `@n`.
This is to keep the local variables of the previously created blocks consistent in case the `mrbc_context` passed to `mrb_load_exec()` is `NULL` or different.
Switching between `mrbc_context` pointers that are non `NULL` can be done safely by calling `mrbc_cleanup_local_variables()`.
Before this patch, the result of the following code is not as expected.
```console
% cat loadstr.c
#include <mruby.h>
#include <mruby/compile.h>
int
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open();
mrb_load_string(
mrb,
"(a, b, c, d, e, f, g) = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] \n"
"$lambda = -> { p [a, b, c, d, e, f, g] }");
mrb_load_string(mrb, "$lambda.call");
mrb_close(mrb);
return 0;
}
% $(bin/mruby-config --cc --cflags --ldflags) loadstr.c $(bin/mruby-config --libs) && ./a.out
[main, nil, nil, main, nil, nil, main]
```
Also, since `mrb_env_unshare()` was not used before, the internal stack of simply detached `env` objects could show invalid addresses by `stack_extend()`.

- remove `lex_strterm_before_heredoc` that does not nest
- remove `all_heredocs` that cannot distinguish nested and followed
here-doc
- replace `lex_strterm` represented by cons list by C struct
- push/pop `lex_strterm` before/after interpolation
Internal functions can only be called from within the library.
Functions listed in `mruby/internal.h` can be called from:
* core (src/*.c)
* gems (mrbgems/**/*.c)
But not from the application linked with `libmruby`.
Allow void expression on some places e.g. right hand of `rescue`
modifier. In addition, checks added on some places, e.g. left hand of
logical operators.
