Michael Schimmel ce166f39e3 Introduce Value::Cell for mutable upvalues, allowing closures to
modify captured variables.
Implement `capture_upvalue` and `get_value`/`set_value` methods in the
`VM` to handle these mutable upvalues.

Refactor number parsing to support integers and floats

Separate the `TokenKind::Number` into `TokenKind::Integer` and
`TokenKind::Float`.
Update the lexer to distinguish between integer and float literals.
Update the parser to correctly map these new token kinds to their
respective `Value` types.

Add integration tests for parsing integers and floats, and for closure
modification of captured variables.

Michael Schimmel 49a879045e feat: Add StaticType and type checking
This commit introduces `StaticType` and enhances the `Binder` to perform
basic type checking during the binding phase.

Key changes include:

- **`StaticType` enum:** Represents static types such as `Any`, `Void`,
  `Bool`, `Int`, `Float`, `Text`, `List`, `Record`, and `Function`.
- **`Node<K, T>`:** The generic `Node` now includes a `ty` field to
  store its inferred static type.
- **Binder enhancements:**
    - `CompilerScope` now stores `LocalInfo` containing the variable's
      slot and `StaticType`.
    - `FunctionCompiler` stores upvalues with their associated
      `StaticType`.
    - `Binder::bind` now returns `Node<BoundKind, StaticType>`,
      propagating type information.
    - Type checking is added for `If` conditions and `Assign`
      operations.
    - `Def` nodes now infer and store the type of the defined variable.
- **`Value::static_type()`:** A new method to determine the `StaticType`
  of a `Value`.
- **Environment modifications:** `global_names` now stores `(u32,
  StaticType)` to associate global variables with their types.
- **Parser modifications:** The `ty` field of nodes is initialized to
  `()` by default.
- **VM modifications:** `VM::run` and `VM::eval` now operate on
  `Node<BoundKind, StaticType>`.
- **Tests:** Added basic evaluation and type error tests.
  feat: Add StaticType and type checking

Introduces `StaticType` enum and integrates it into the AST. The binder
now performs type checking during compilation, ensuring that expressions
conform to expected types, especially for control flow structures like
`if`. This lays the groundwork for static type analysis and error
reporting.

Michael Schimmel 7042206ab6 feat: Implement AST binder and VM
Adds a new `Binder` struct that traverses the AST and resolves variable
references to concrete `Address` types (Local, Upvalue, Global). This
information is crucial for the Virtual Machine's execution phase.

Introduces the `BoundKind` enum to represent the AST after binding.

The `VM` is updated to handle `BoundKind` nodes and execute the bound
AST.
It now manages a call stack, local variables, and closures for function
calls and upvalue capturing.

The `Environment` struct is enhanced to manage global variables and
provide
a unified interface for parsing, binding, and executing scripts. It also
includes basic standard library functions.
