operations including AND, OR, RETURN, YIELD, and SUPER.
Changes:
- Add variable-sized node structures for expression nodes in node.h
- Add casting and value access macros for expression nodes
- Modify existing expression functions to conditionally use variable-sized versions
- Implement variable-sized node creation functions (new_and_var, new_or_var, etc.)
- Add codegen support for variable-sized expression nodes
- All expression types (AND, OR, RETURN, YIELD, SUPER) now support variable-sized allocation

Add variable-sized node structures for all control flow statements:
- IF/ELSIF/ELSE statements with optimized condition handling
- WHILE and UNTIL loops with proper jump generation
- FOR loops with iterator support
- CASE/WHEN statements with multiple condition matching
Key changes:
- Added variable-sized node structures (mrb_ast_if_node, mrb_ast_while_node,
mrb_ast_until_node, mrb_ast_case_node, mrb_ast_for_node) to node.h
- Implemented parser functions with size class allocation in parse.y
- Added comprehensive codegen support with proper jump handling and
stack management in codegen.c
- All control flow nodes now use NODE_VARIABLE wrapper for consistency
- Variable-sized nodes enabled by default for improved memory efficiency
This provides memory-efficient storage for control flow constructs while
maintaining full compatibility with existing functionality.

This completes the implementation of variable-sized AST nodes for control flow
structures (if, while, for, case), further reducing memory usage. Changes were
verified with AddressSanitizer.

Introduces variable-sized AST nodes for method calls (NODE_CALL),
arrays (NODE_ARRAY), and hashes (NODE_HASH). This change improves
memory efficiency by storing elements directly within the AST node,
avoiding an extra layer of pointer indirection for their data.
This is achieved by adding new data structures and functions in both
the parser and the code generator to handle these new node types.
Variable-sized nodes are now enabled by default.

This commit introduces the core infrastructure for variable-sized AST
nodes, designed to improve memory efficiency. The previous fixed-size
nodes are replaced by nodes that can store data inline, such as
strings and integers, reducing pointer indirection and memory overhead.
Key changes include:
- A generic variable-sized node header (`mrb_ast_var_header`).
- A size-class-based memory allocation system for these nodes.
- Implementation of variable-sized nodes for core types: symbols,
strings, integers, and variables (lvar, gvar, ivar, cvar).
- Integration into the parser and code generator, controlled by a
feature flag.
- Centralized and improved type-casting macros for AST nodes.

This implements a memory optimization for AST nodes that stores location
information (lineno, filename_index) only in head nodes rather than in
every node, reducing memory usage for structure nodes.
Key changes:
- Split node types: mrb_ast_node (structure nodes without location),
mrb_ast_head_node (with location info). Sizes are platform-dependent:
8/12 bytes on 32-bit, 16/24 bytes on 64-bit platforms
- Separate allocation: cons() creates structure nodes, cons_head()
creates head nodes with location information
- Node recycling: all nodes are recycled when freed, but only smaller
structure nodes are reused from the free list to maintain type safety
- Updated macro: added headn() for consistent head node casting
- Removed NODE_LINENO macro: eliminated redundant location copying
since head-only optimization already provides adequate location info
- Fixed codegen to properly access location fields via head node casts
This optimization reduces AST memory usage while preserving all
debugging and location information functionality.

Move the definition of struct mrb_ast_node to a private header to
hide implementation details from the public API.

Move STR_FUNC_* macros, enum mrb_string_type, and struct
mrb_parser_heredoc_info from include/mruby/compile.h to
mrbgems/mruby-compiler/core/node.h.
These types are internal to the mruby compiler gem and are used by
both parse.y and codegen.c. Moving them to node.h encapsulates them
within the compiler gem, cleaning up the public mruby/compile.h header.

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.

Rename NODE_BEGIN to NODE_STMTS to better reflect its purpose as a
container for statement sequences, not specifically begin-end blocks.
This prepares for adding a dedicated node type for explicit begin-end
constructs.
- Rename NODE_BEGIN enum to NODE_STMTS in node.h
- Update all references in parse.y and codegen.c
- Rename new_begin function to new_stmts
