This adds an interface for code generation to GDScript. In itself it does not make much of a difference, but it does make it easier to add a new backend without having to worry about the parse tree, instead just implementing a lower-level interface.
This will be useful for the new typed VM, since it can be made without creating a new compiler code. Could also be useful in the future if we want to compile GDScript to other targets.
Also includes a disassembler for the current VM which I used to debug the code generation. It can't be accessed currently since the command for the old tests isn't available anymore, but this is useful to have for when we have a new way to trigger those.
