feat: implement interactive debugger

Adds a REPL-based debugger with:
- Breakpoint management (set/delete by line number)
- Single-step and continue execution modes
- Source code listing with breakpoint markers
- Expression evaluation in debug context
- Variable inspection and call stack display

Usage: lux debug <file.lux>
