fix(arrays): free array buffers when their scope ends
Register every array as a stack object so its buffer is freed on scope end, re-DECLARE, RETURN and unwinding; run the element-destroy loop only for types that need destruction. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

- **Arrays cross function boundaries only as parameters.** `ArrayTable` is scoped per
function, so referencing another function's array fails cleanly as
"Undeclared array". Whole arrays pass as `ARRAY OF T` / `ARRAY[l:u,...] OF T`

argument against a scalar parameter is still a compile error. FUNCTIONs cannot
RETURN arrays. A whole-array variable is also rejected as an operand or as a
value of its element type.
