Yukihiro "Matz" Matsumoto e3d52cec12 mruby-compiler: implement variable-sized AST nodes for assignment operations
Add support for variable-sized AST nodes for assignment operations including
simple assignment, multiple assignment, and operator assignment.

Changes:
- Add variable-sized node structures for assignment nodes in node.h
- Add casting and value access macros for assignment nodes
- Modify existing assignment functions to conditionally use variable-sized versions
- Implement variable-sized node creation functions (new_asgn_var, new_masgn_var, new_op_asgn_var)
- Add codegen support for variable-sized assignment nodes
- All assignment types (simple, multiple, operator) now support variable-sized allocation

mruby-compiler

This mrbgem provides the mruby compiler, which is responsible for parsing Ruby code and generating mruby bytecode.

Functionality

The mruby-compiler gem includes the following components:

  • Parser: Translates Ruby source code into an abstract syntax tree (AST).
  • Code Generator: Traverses the AST to produce executable mruby bytecode.
  • mrbc executable: A command-line tool for compiling .rb files into .mrb bytecode files.

Usage

The mrbc (mruby-bin-mrbc) executable will generate compiled binary from Ruby programs via this gem.

Example of using mrbc:

# Compile a Ruby script to bytecode
bin/mrbc my_script.rb

# Run the compiled script
bin/mruby my_script.mrb
