Implement compile_test() entry point that emits a C test harness instead
of a normal program. Test blocks (previously skipped) now compile to
static functions with per-assertion pass/fail tracking. Assert statement
added to parser and codegen. Runtime extended with now_ns, fs_list_json,
json_build_object, json_build_array, json_escape_string, state_has,
state_get_or. Fix float negation codegen, float equality comparisons,
time_to_parts return type (JSON string), time_format empty-fmt, json_set
raw-value semantics, state_keys JSON array return. All 310 native tests
pass across 9 suites (core, text, string, math, env, state, json, time, fs).
test "name" { ... } blocks were not recognized by the self-hosted
compiler. The body { } was parsed as a Map literal, creating a huge
AST with O(n²) string concatenation in the toplevel_exec_stmts loop
(which had no arena scope). A 272-line test file would consume 400MB+
and a 720-line file importing the full compiler source caused 150GB
usage and crashed the machine.
Two fixes:
1. Skip Test tokens in codegen_streaming before parse_one() —
advance past "name" and skip_to_rbrace on the body block.
Test blocks are never compiled; self-hosted compiler has no test runner.
2. Add per-statement arena scope to toplevel_exec_stmts emission loop,
matching the el_main_body loop. Frees intermediate strings after
each statement to prevent O(n²) accumulation from any unrecognized
construct that reaches that path.
Result: test_string.el (272 lines, 27 test blocks): 0MB peak (was 400MB+).
test_compiler.el (720 lines + 8728 imported): 15MB peak (was 150GB).
