shared/runtime/pyexec: Provide support for compile-only mode.

When `MICROPY_PYEXEC_COMPILE_ONLY` is enabled and the global
`mp_compile_only` is True, code is compiled but not executed.

Also add comprehensive tests for compile-only functionality covering both
successful compilation and syntax error detection.
