Michael Schimmel cb94f20c0b Refactor native function registration and instantiation
Introduces `register_native` for direct registration of `NativeFunction`
and `register_native_fn` for convenience from closures. The
`Environment::run`
method is removed, and its functionality is now handled by
`Environment::instantiate`,
which packages the linked AST into an invokable `NativeFunction`. This
streamlines
the execution path and better separates compilation/linking from runtime
execution.

Michael Schimmel a726b79d8a Refactor Purity enum and NativeFunction struct
Move `Purity` enum definition from `optimizer.rs` to `types.rs` and
create a `NativeFunction` struct to hold the function and its purity.
Update `Value::Function` to store `Rc<NativeFunction>` and
`Value::make_function`
helper to simplify creation.

This change allows tracking the purity of native functions, which is
useful
for optimization and static analysis.

Michael Schimmel 589c13896f Add now() built-in function
This commit introduces the `now()` built-in function, which returns the
current timestamp in milliseconds. It also includes an integration test
to ensure that `now()` is not constant-folded during AST dumping,
verifying its non-deterministic nature.

Michael Schimmel f35606616b Introduce Purity enum for optimizer
Refactor the optimizer to use a Purity enum instead of a boolean for
tracking function purity. This allows for a more granular representation
of purity:

- `Impure`: Functions with side effects.
- `SideEffectFree`: Functions without side effects but may not be
  deterministic (e.g., `now()`, `random()`).
- `Pure`: Functions without side effects and are deterministic.

This change enhances the optimizer's ability to perform more aggressive
optimizations by accurately determining function purity.

Michael Schimmel 0107264026 feat: Implement purity inference for optimization
This commit introduces purity inference to the compiler's optimizer.
This allows for more aggressive constant folding and dead code
elimination by tracking which functions and global variables
are free of side effects.

Key changes include:

- Added `global_purity` field to `Optimizer` and `Environment`.
- Modified `Optimizer::is_pure` to recursively determine if an
  AST node represents a pure computation.
- Introduced `Optimizer::try_fold_pure` to replace the old
  `try_fold_intrinsic`, enabling folding of pure function calls
  with constant arguments.
- Updated `Environment::register_native` and
  `Environment::register_constant`
  to optionally record purity.
- Added purity flags to several built-in functions in `core.rs` and
  `datetime.rs`.
- A new example `optimizer_purity.myc` demonstrates the new feature.

Michael Schimmel e2279f214b Refactor lambda binding and parameter handling
Introduce `BoundKind::Parameter` to represent function parameters.
Modify `Binder` to correctly handle parameters within lambda
definitions, ensuring they are only defined within function scopes.
Update `LambdaCollector` to register the body of lambdas as templates
for global definitions.
Adjust `Dumper` to accurately represent lambda parameters.
Update `Specializer` and `TCO` to handle the new `BoundKind::Parameter`.
Refactor `Call` and `TailCall` to use a single `args` node, often a
tuple.
Adjust type signatures in RTL to use `StaticType::Tuple` for function
parameters.

Michael Schimmel 07bf59eb47 Add RTL functions for arithmetic and comparisons
This commit introduces a new module `ast::rtl` to house the standard
runtime library functions for the language. It includes implementations
for arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /, //, %), logical operators (and,
or, xor, not), bitwise shifts (<<, >>), and comparison operators (=, <>,
<, >, <=, >=).

Additionally, a `date` function for parsing datetime strings has been
added. This enhances the language's capability to handle basic
mathematical and logical operations.
Add RTL functions for arithmetic and comparisons

This commit introduces the runtime library (RTL) functions for basic
arithmetic operations, logical/bitwise operations, and comparisons. It
also includes a `date` function for parsing datetime strings.
Integration tests have been updated to cover these new functionalities.
