Remove Enum_Access AST node type — reuse Id_AST_Node for enum value
lookups by combining "EnumName::ValueName" at parse time. Replace
std::set with std::vector for valid value tracking (enums are small).
Net removal of ~18 lines.

Adds the ability to define enums inside ChaiScript with syntax:
enum Color { Red, Green, Blue }
enum Priority { Low = 10, Medium = 20, High = 30 }
Enum values are strongly typed Dynamic_Objects accessed via :: syntax
(e.g. Color::Red). A validating constructor from int is registered that
rejects values outside the defined range. Functions declared with an enum
parameter type (e.g. def fun(Color val)) correctly reject plain integers,
enforcing type safety at the dispatch level.

The assign_remainder (%=) case in Boxed_Number::go was missing the
check_divide_by_zero guard, causing a hardware SIGFPE on integer
modulo by zero. Also moved a misplaced check_divide_by_zero from
assign_bitwise_and (&=) where it was erroneous. Additionally, the
catch block in Equation_AST_Node::eval_internal was masking the
arithmetic_error exception as a generic "unsupported operation" error;
arithmetic_error is now re-thrown to provide the correct error message.

* 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.

Add Function_Push_Pop to Switch_AST_Node case comparison to properly
manage the lifetime of temporaries created during type conversions.
Make Binary_Operator_AST_Node::do_oper static and public so it can be
reused by Switch_AST_Node for case equality checks, ensuring consistent
lifetime management across all operator invocations.

Fix this by replacing the lambda with a simple ternary operator
expression.
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
There are two warnings when compiling with GCC 7.4.1 or clang 5.0.1.
1. warning: explicit by-copy capture of ‘this’ redundant with by-copy capture default
2. warning: typedef ... locally defined but not used [-Wunused-local-typedefs]
This change removes [2] and it compacts the lambda capture clause in [1].
This modifies no logic, it simply adds the keyword `noexcept`
I believe this is 100% correct. It calls methods that are not
guaranteed to be `noexcept`, such as `operator[]` but have
no logically way of throwing.
