Several STL bootstrap functions unconditionally instantiated copy-dependent
operations (copy constructor, assignment, push_back/push_front by const ref,
insert_at, and resize with fill value), causing compilation failures when
registering containers of move-only types like std::unique_ptr. Guard these
operations with if constexpr(std::is_copy_constructible_v<value_type>) so they
are only compiled when the element type supports copying.

The function_less_than comparator used by std::stable_sort violated the
strict-weak ordering requirement in two ways: (1) functions with different
arities but matching overlapping parameters were treated as equivalent,
breaking transitivity, and (2) the dynamic_object_type_name comparison
silently fell through when one side had an empty type name. Fixed by
ordering by arity when overlapping parameters match, and imposing a total
order on dynamic object type names.

* Fix#655: Join async threads before engine destruction to prevent heap-use-after-free
Issues #632 and #636 (PRs #651 and #653) both stem from the same root cause: async
threads spawned via async() can outlive the Dispatch_Engine, accessing shared state
(global objects map, type maps) after it has been destroyed. The fix moves async()
registration from the stdlib module into ChaiScript_Basic, where spawned threads are
tracked via Dispatch_Engine. The engine's destructor now joins all outstanding async
threads before destroying shared data structures.

Previously, to_<type> only accepted a string or the same type (identity),
and <type>() constructors only accepted Boxed_Number. This left gaps such as
to_int(char), to_char(int), char(string), int(string), and to_double(char).
Add two overloads to bootstrap_pod_type: to_<name>(Boxed_Number) enables
cross-type numeric conversions (e.g. to_int('A') → 65, to_char(65) → 'A'),
and <name>(string) via parse_string enables construction from strings
(e.g. char("A") → 'A', int("65") → 65, double("3.5") → 3.5).

* Fix#405: push_back() on script-created vector has no effect with vector_conversion
When both vector_type<T> and vector_conversion<T> are registered, the
dispatch scoring treats all parameter mismatches equally. This causes
the C++ push_back (for the converted type) to be selected over the
built-in one when both have the same number of type differences. The
converted function operates on a temporary copy of the vector, silently
discarding the mutation. The fix deprioritizes overloads that require
type conversion on the first parameter (the object/receiver), ensuring
functions matching the receiver type exactly are always tried first.

* Fix#17: Add const local variable support to ChaiScript
Adds `const var`, `const auto`, and `const` as variable declaration
syntax that creates immutable local variables. A const_override flag
on Boxed_Value enables script-level constness without changing the
C++ type system integration. The parser, optimizer, and evaluator
are extended with Const_Var_Decl and Const_Assign_Decl AST nodes
that mirror their non-const counterparts but mark the value as const
after initialization.

* Address review: remove const_override, set const flag directly on Type_Info
Replace the m_const_override bool on Boxed_Value::Data with a
Type_Info::make_const() method that sets the const bit in m_flags
directly. This ensures constness is visible everywhere consistently,
including places that check get_type_info().is_const() directly.

* Fix#201: Add class inheritance support with Derived : Base syntax
Classes can now inherit methods and attributes from a base class using
C++-style syntax: `class Derived : Base { ... }`. Base class methods and
attributes are automatically available on derived objects. Derived classes
can override base methods by defining a method with the same name.
Inheritance relationships are tracked to support proper type matching
in the dispatch system.

* Address review: use implicit derived-to-base matching instead of copying base class functions
Instead of copying all base class methods/attributes into derived classes,
make the type matching system recognize inheritance relationships. Base class
methods now naturally match derived objects through dynamic_object_typename_match,
and dispatch ordering ensures derived overrides are preferred over base methods.
This is simpler (net -25 lines) and avoids duplicating function registrations.

* Add tests for passing derived objects to functions expecting Base
Tests cover: free functions calling base methods on derived objects,
polymorphic dispatch through containers, base attribute access on
derived objects, and multi-level inheritance (GrandChild : Derived : Base).

* Add typed parameter tests for class inheritance
Use typed function signatures (e.g., `def call_do_something(Base obj)`)
instead of untyped parameters to test that derived objects are accepted
by functions expecting a base type, with correct polymorphic dispatch.

I initially tried to use the existing .clang-format file,
but it does not match the code style (at least with clang-format 11)
and the formatting is not consistent across files.
Therefore, I decided to rewrite the .clang-format with some personal
preferences.
Used command
find . -iname "*.hpp" -o -iname "*.cpp" | xargs clang-format -i -style=file
is_pod_v was deprecated in C++20, is_pod_v can be
replaced with is_trivial_v && is_standard_layout_v.
I don't see any benefit from is_standard_layout_v,
but I could have missed something.
The underlying pair that is dereferenced from the iterator has always `const` qualified `first` member (key type). Therefore, an unnecessary temporary was created and bounded to the const ref to the pair. This could be also fixed with `for (const auto &p : from_map)`.
- code (on MSVC) was asserting due to trying to dereference invalid
pointers (dereferencing the end iterator, even if only to get its
address!).
- when a Function_Params is constructed with an empty vector, you
can't return the address of the vec.front() -- instead we use
nullptr for the m_begin and m_end pointers.
