[ANN] clx 0.3.0 released

Hi,

clx is an open-source ahead-of-time (AOT) compiler that turns Lua programs 
into standalone native executables. Version 0.3.0 has now been released, 
with support for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

The main new feature is an optional embedded Lua 5.5 VM with a native 
bridge, enabling dynamic code execution through load(), loadfile(), and 
dofile() while seamlessly interacting with AOT-compiled code.

The VM is only included when requested with the --dynamic flag, so 
applications that don't need dynamic loading retain a minimal executable 
size and runtime footprint.

Compatibility has also improved significantly, with popular Lua libraries 
such as dkjson, serpent, middleclass, and lume now compiling and running 
out of the box.

This release also brings numerous optimizations, including native int64 
code generation, escape-analysis-driven arena allocation, per-table inline 
caches, SIMD optimizations, faster coroutine switching, improved Lua 5.5 
compatibility, and various runtime improvements. clx now matches or 
outperforms LuaJIT on several benchmark workloads.
