New instrucions: CTOS and MKSTR. CTOS creates a string containing
a single (input) character. MKSTR creates a new blank string. Unit
tests included.

This commit adds addressing modes for boolean and character data.
The Address enum is extended, along with its TryFrom<u8> implementation
and its operand_size function. The access macro is extended to handle
the new modes. The CONST instruction can now create Char and Bool data.
The instructions.toml has information on the new addressing modes. Unit
tests have been added to test new CONST logic.

This commit provides some but not all unit tests for VM instructions.
All tests pass, and this commit includes modifications to logic to allow
for that.

The following instructions are modified to act on strings:
- INDEX: Now pulls a char out at index
- SUBSL: Now pulls a substring out of a source string
- INSER: Now inserts a char into a string at index
- LENGTH: Now returns length of a string
In addition to the above instructions, additional instructions
are now implemented to handle strings:
- CONCAT: appends a string onto another string
- S_APPEND: appends a char on to the end of a string

This commit removes the dependency upon Mycelium::sexpr::Datum from Hyphae
and instead adds a heap.rs module including three types:
- Gc: This is essentially a Box<Rc<T>> but passed around as a *const Rc<T>.
not only does this allow the wrapped T to be passed around in a format
that fits completely within a single physical register, this also
applies a greedy reference counting garbage collection to each and
every object allocated in the VM.
- Datum: This is a simplified enum for type polymorphism. Similar to the
original Mycelium::sexpr::Datum.
- Cons: This is a very standard Cons cell type.
Additionally, two new instructions are added:
- DUPL: a deep copy instruction
- CONST: an instruction to create number datum from embedded constants
- NTOI: casts a number to its inexact form
- NTOE: casts a number to its exact form

This commit is a WORK IN PROGRESS for the base implementation of the
HyphaeVM. This will be squashed into a larger commit eventually when
the work of implementing the HyphaeVM is finished.
Of note, the ISA is mostly finished and much of the VM design is in
place. Yet to be done are a few traps in mycelium, migrating pieces
like the number package and the sexpr package into the VM package,
and of course much testing.
