made mrb_print_error() handle NULL by printing "Failed to allocate
mrb_state" when mrb is NULL. since mrb_close() already handles NULL,
this allows simplified error checking pattern:
if (!MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb)) {
mrb_print_error(mrb); // handles NULL
mrb_close(mrb); // handles NULL
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
updated all binary tools (mruby, mirb, mrdb, mrbtest) to use this
simplified pattern, removing nested if checks.

changed mrb_open() and mrb_open_core() to return mrb_state with mrb->exc
set (instead of NULL) when initialization fails. this allows callers to
programmatically inspect error details, which is essential for embedded
systems without stderr. return NULL only for true allocation failure.
added MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb) macro to check initialization success, since
mrb != NULL no longer guarantees success. updated all binary tools
(mruby, mirb, mrdb, mrbtest) to use new pattern: check MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS,
print exception details via mrb_print_error if available, then mrb_close.
mrb_core_init_protect now preserves exception in mrb->exc instead of
printing and clearing it, giving caller control over error handling.
breaking change: callers must use MRB_OPEN_SUCCESS(mrb) or check both
mrb != NULL && mrb->exc == NULL. old NULL-only checks will miss
initialization failures.

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`.
Instead of including `mruby/presym.h` everywhere, we provided the
fallback `mruby/presym.inc` under `include/mruby` directory, and specify
`-I<build-dir>/include` before `-I<top-dir>/include` in `presym.rake`.
So even when someone drops `-I<build-dir>/include` in compiler options,
it just compiles without failure.
In addition, update the documents referring `build_config.rb` which is
no longer used. The new `build_config.rb` describes the new configuration
structure in the comment.
- `mrb_check_intern()` to return `mrb_value`
- `mrb_intern_check()` to return `mrb_sym` [NEW]
Other new functions:
- `mrb_intern_check_cstr()`
- `mrb_intern_check_str()`
They used to return `mrb_value` but now return `mrb_sym` for consistency
with other `intern` functions. If symbols are not defined, `check`
functions return `0`, instead of `nil` in the past.
It causes API incompatibility but I believe few people use those
functions out of the core, and those changes are very easy to handle,
hopefully.
The addresses for packed inline symbols reference `mrb->symbuf` that
could be overridden by the later call of `mrb_sym2name_len`. Since
file names in call stack information are kept as symbols, keeping the
address in the C structures could cause problems like #4342.
This changes small incompatible changes in function prototypes:
* `mrb_parser_get_filename`: return value changed to `mrb_sym`.
* `mrb_debug_get_filename`: add `mrb_state*` as a first argument.
* `mrb_debug_get_line`: ditto.
I believe above functions are almost internal, and no third-party
mrbgem use them.
