This commit addresses the critical rule regarding exhaustive `match`
expressions on AST node kinds. By explicitly listing all variants
instead of using wildcards (`_ =>`), we ensure that new AST node types
are consciously handled throughout the compilation pipeline. This
practice prevents subtle bugs and makes the compiler more robust against
future changes.
The `CLAUDE.md` file has been updated to reflect this critical rule.
The deleted `BUG_program_node_typeinference.md` file indicates that a
previously identified bug related to type inference with `Program` nodes
has been resolved, likely as a consequence of enforcing these exhaustive
matches.
This commit introduces two new files:
- `.claudeignore`: Specifies files and directories that should be
ignored by Claude, such as snapshot files and the `target` directory.
- `docs/bytecode-architecture.md`: Documents the architecture for
bytecode generation, outlining the hybrid execution model, the
transformation pipeline (Specializer and Lowering), and the role of
Tail Call Optimization (TCO).
