- DONE: start by making ptr.value++ work , and ptr.value = ptr.value+20, and ptr.value = cx16.r0L+20+ptr.value Likewise for subtraction. DON'T FORGET C POINTER SEMANTICS. Other operators are nonsensical for ptr arith
- DONE: support @dirty on pointer vars -> uninitialized pointer placed in BSS_noclear segment
- DONE: support comparison operators on pointers
- fix REGRESSION: passing adress to array element errors with "at the moment it is not possible to chain array syntax" see unit test "block scoping still parsed correctly" https://discord.com/channels/547559626024157184/926342257290903552/1369394392980263022
- implement augmented assignment on pointer dereference; ptr^^ += 10
- implement augmented assignment on pointer dereference; ptr^^ *= 5
- fix actual _msb/_lsb storage of the split-words pointer-arrays
- pointer types in subroutine signatures (both normal and asm-subs)
- support chaining pointer dereference on function calls that return a pointer. (type checking now fails on stuff like func().field and func().next.field)
- make typeForAddressOf() be even more specific about the typed pointers it returns for the address-of operator. + unit test.
- are the ARRAY_POINTER and ARRAY_STRUCT data type enums realy needed? can't we just use ARRAY?
- fixing the pointer dereferencing issues (cursed hybrid beween IdentifierReference, PtrDereferece and PtrIndexedDereference) may require getting rid of scoped identifiers altogether and treat '.' as a "scope or pointer following operator"
- add unit tests for all changes
