Implement HTTP client using POSIX sockets:
- Http.get(url) - GET request
- Http.post(url, body) - POST request
- Http.put(url, body) - PUT request
- Http.delete(url) - DELETE request
Features:
- Self-contained implementation (no libcurl dependency)
- URL parsing for host, port, and path
- HTTP/1.1 protocol with Connection: close
- Response body extraction
All Http operations use evidence passing for handler customization.

New effects with evidence passing support:
Random effect:
- int(min, max) - random integer in range
- float() - random float 0-1
- bool() - random boolean
Time effect:
- now() - milliseconds since epoch
- sleep(ms) - pause execution
File effect:
- read(path) - read file contents
- write(path, content) - write file
- append(path, content) - append to file
- exists(path) - check if file exists
- delete(path) - delete file
- isDir(path) - check if directory
- mkdir(path) - create directory
Also fixed:
- Function calls as statements now properly emit in generated C
- Return type inference for all effect operations

C backend now fully threads evidence through effectful function calls:
- Track effectful functions via effectful_functions HashSet
- Add has_evidence flag to track context during code generation
- Add LuxEvidence* ev parameter to effectful function signatures
- Transform effect operations to use ev->console->print() when evidence available
- Update function calls to pass evidence (ev or &default_evidence)
- Update main entry point to pass &default_evidence
Generated code now uses zero-cost evidence passing:
void greet_lux(LuxEvidence* ev) {
ev->console->print(ev->console->env, "Hello!");
}
This completes the evidence passing implementation for both interpreter
(O(1) HashMap lookup) and C backend (direct function pointer calls).

Interpreter changes:
- Add evidence HashMap for O(1) handler lookup instead of O(n) stack search
- Update eval_run to manage evidence when entering/exiting run blocks
- Modify handle_effect to use evidence.get() instead of stack iteration
C backend infrastructure:
- Add handler structs (LuxConsoleHandler, LuxStateHandler, LuxReaderHandler)
- Add LuxEvidence struct containing pointers to all handlers
- Add default handlers that delegate to built-in implementations
- Add Console.readLine built-in implementation
Documentation:
- Create docs/EVIDENCE_PASSING.md explaining design and implementation
- Update docs/C_BACKEND.md with current progress
