Batch-compile all ~64 IR primitives into a single WASM module at startup.
Replaces 64 separate Module::new + Instance::new with 1 of each.
Reuses compile_consolidated_module() directly, removed compile_core_module() stub.
Boot time: 7.7ms -> 0.6ms (release), test suite: 5.1s -> 1.5s (debug).
13 of 14 optimizations now implemented. 392 tests passing.
- Add docs/OPTIMIZATIONS.md: catalog of 14 optimization passes with
status tracking and implementation roadmap
- Configure workspace-level clippy and rustc lints in Cargo.toml
- Add clippy.toml and deny.toml for clippy thresholds and dependency
auditing (licenses, advisories, bans)
- Set up pre-commit hook: cargo fmt, dprint, clippy, cargo deny,
cargo machete
- Update Justfile with deny/machete targets, dprint in fmt checks

Rename ABOUT_FORTH.md to FORTH.md and rewrite to cover Forth's unique
position as simultaneously low-level and high-level, where Forth is used
today (Philae lander, Open Firmware, embedded systems), and why Forth
maps naturally onto WebAssembly's stack machine architecture.
