This commit implements comprehensive support for variadic functions, including: - Add built-in va_list typedef (int *) for variadic argument handling - Fix typedef pointer level preservation in parser - Add proper array indexing support for typedef pointers - Support pointer arithmetic with typedef pointers - Add expression dereferencing support: *(++p) The is_ptr field in type_t structure is used to track pointer levels for typedef'd pointer types, not as a boolean flag. This rename makes the field's purpose clearer and aligns with its actual usage as a counter throughout the codebase. This enables both traditional pointer arithmetic access to variadic arguments and modern va_list typedef forwarding between functions. Close #202

This commit adds va_list typedef for basic variadic function support and implement typedef pointer handling in parser (typedef char *string).
Close #202
Summary by Bito
This pull request introduces a new typedef for va_list to enhance variadic function support and improves pointer handling with a ptr_level field. These changes optimize type management in the parser and include comprehensive tests to validate the new features and their functionality.
