Orkuncakilkaya a38195128f feat(stdlib): namespaced standard library (issue #2)
Implement the bulk of the namespaced-stdlib proposal (workshopsoft/ludic#2):
156 namespace methods across Math, Text, List, Ease, Collide, World, Net,
Sys, Save, Mem, extended Screen, Color functions, extended Random, and Time.
All deterministic fixed-point; self-hosting (C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds).

Compiler (selfhost/):
- Math.*: sqrt/sin/cos/tan/atan2/asin/acos (fixed-point runtime prelude —
  bit-by-bit isqrt, 256-entry interpolated sine table, Ross atan2), plus
  hypot/dist/dist2/deg_to_rad/rad_to_deg/posmod/wrap/ping_pong/snapped/
  move_toward/smoothstep/lerp/remap/sign/floor/ceil/round.
- Text.* (complete): upper/lower/trim/repeat/pad, split/join/replace,
  and the libc-backed queries.
- List.* (complete): insert/remove_at/remove/sort plus the earlier ops.
- Ease.* (in/out/in_out/back/bounce) and Collide.* (rects/point_rect/
  circles/rect_circle).
- Phase 3: World/Net/Sys/Save namespaced over the bare builtins (byte-
  identical IR) and Mem.* (bytes/words/copy/fill/peek/poke).
- Screen.* extended (line/circle/fill_circle/triangle/fill_triangle via new
  runtime primitives; sprite/sprite_scaled aliases), Color.* functions,
  Random.* (value/int/sign), Time.* (frame/delta/elapsed/now — new
  game-loop frame counter).
- Fix a lexer bug: fixed-point literals with >4 fractional digits overflowed.

Docs & tooling:
- 129 new per-symbol doc pages; gen.py made data-driven (namespaces
  discovered from the docs, no hardcoded list); new check-impl.py enforces
  that every implemented namespace method / keyword / type / phase has a
  doc page, wired into `x test-tools`. Document the previously-undocumented
  keywords (break/continue/where/entry/new/public + and/or/not tokens).
- LSP: namespaced signature help (ns_method_sig) covering every namespace.

Tests: 12 new self-host/regression tests + a golden render for the drawing
primitives. All suites green (selfhost 21, regression 45, tools 29).

kw-break break control keyword break break Leave the enclosing loop immediately. 9

break exits the innermost while or for loop at once, skipping the rest of the body and any remaining iterations, and continues with the code after the loop. Use it to stop early the moment you have what you need — the first match in a scan, a collision that ends the sweep, or a guard inside while true that decides when to leave. It affects only the loop that contains it; an outer loop keeps running.

program FindFirst {
  var found: int = 0 - 1

  handler Scan phase Update {
    for i in 0 .. 10 {
      if i * i > 20 {
        found = i
        break        # stop at the first i whose square exceeds 20
      }
    }
  }
}
