The print_string and println_string functions were previously registered as static
functions writing directly to stdout, making it impossible to redirect ChaiScript
output to custom destinations (e.g., GUI windows, loggers, or buffers). This moves
their registration from Bootstrap::bootstrap() to ChaiScript_Basic::build_eval_system()
as lambdas that dispatch through configurable std::function handlers, allowing each
ChaiScript instance to independently redirect its output via set_print_handler() and
set_println_handler().

* 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.
