M4+M5: Optimizer passes, type casting, bank switching, math runtime

Milestone 4 — Optimization & Polish:
- Strength reduction: multiply by power-of-2 → shift left
- Zero-page promotion analysis: rank variables by access frequency
- `as` type casting expression in parser/AST/analyzer
- `scroll(x, y)` statement
- `--asm-dump` flag for viewing generated assembly
- Extended optimizer tests (strength reduction, frequency analysis)

Milestone 5 — Bank Switching & Release:
- Mapper support: MMC1 (1), UxROM (2), MMC3 (4) in parser and ROM builder
- Bank declarations: `bank Name: prg` / `bank Name: chr`
- Linker::with_mapper for mapper-aware ROM generation
- Software multiply (8x8→16, shift-and-add algorithm)
- Software divide (8÷8→8, restoring division algorithm)
- ROM tests for mapper encoding round-trip
- Integration test for MMC1 compilation

210 tests total (18 new), all pre-commit checks pass.
