This commit updates the benchmark and repeat counts for various example
files. These changes reflect potential performance improvements or
variations observed during testing.
Add `Output` comments to the example files to reflect the actual output
of the programs. This helps with verifying correctness and understanding
example behavior.
Introduces type specialization for reactive pipeline nodes and their
data buffers. This eliminates the overhead of generic `Value` enums and
`SharedValueSeries` when dealing with known scalar or record types.
The architecture shifts buffer instantiation from the VM to the runtime
(RTL), leveraging type information from the AST. A new `out_type` field
is added to `BoundKind::Pipe` to store the static type of the pipeline's
output, determined by the type checker.
This enables the creation of specialized `RingBuffer<T>` and
`SharedRecordSeries` (for Struct-of-Arrays layout) when the output type
is known, significantly improving memory usage and processing speed for
time-series data, especially in financial analysis.
