feat: Add Go testscript compatibility for stdout/stderr commands (#45)

- Add @R syntax for regex quoting in environment variables (${VAR@R})
- Add -count=N option support for stdout/stderr commands
- Fix empty quoted string parsing in command tokenization
- Add comprehensive test coverage for stdout/stderr matching behavior
