Michael Schimmel b0f139f389 feat: Add testing and benchmarking capabilities
This commit introduces a new `tester` module to the `ast` crate,
enabling functional tests and performance benchmarks for MYC scripts.

Functional tests are executed by reading `.myc` files from the
`examples` directory, parsing expected output comments, and comparing
them against the actual script execution results.

Benchmarking involves measuring the execution time of scripts,
calculating median durations, and comparing them against stored
baselines. The commit also adds support for updating these baselines.

The `ast.rs` CLI and the `main.rs` GUI application have been updated to
expose these new testing and benchmarking features. The `Cargo.toml` and
`Cargo.lock` files have been updated to include the `regex` dependency
required for parsing benchmark comments.

Michael Schimmel b1ca16149d Add chrono dependency and example files
This commit introduces the `chrono` dependency to the project, enabling
the use of time-related functionalities. Additionally, it adds several
example files (`closure.myc`, `fib.myc`, `hof.myc`) to showcase the
language's features like closures, recursion, and higher-order
functions.

The `Cargo.lock` and `Cargo.toml` files have been updated to reflect the
new dependency. The `integration_test.rs` file now includes a test to
run all `.myc` files found in the `examples` directory, ensuring their
correctness. The `main.rs` file has also been updated to load and
display these examples in the UI.

Michael Schimmel d55422272b Refactor: Use Rc/RefCell for shared mutable state
This commit replaces `Arc<Mutex<T>>` with `Rc<RefCell<T>>` for managing
shared mutable state within the AST and VM. This change is primarily an
internal refactoring to leverage Rust's standard library more
effectively for single-threaded scenarios, improving performance by
avoiding the overhead of mutexes.

The following types and their usage have been updated:
- `Environment.global_names` and `Environment.global_values`
- `Binder.globals`
- `bound_nodes::BoundKind::Lambda.body` (now `Rc<Node>`)
- `ast::types::NodeIdentity` (now `Rc<NodeIdentity>`)
- `ast::types::Value::List`, `Value::Record`, `Value::Function`,
  `Value::Object`, `Value::Cell`
- `ast::nodes::Scope` and `ast::nodes::Context`
- `ast::vm::Closure.function_node` and `Closure.upvalues`
- `ast::vm::VM.globals`

This change does not alter the external behavior of the library but
streamlines internal data management.

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.
