Hyperscript conformance: 372→373 — hide/show strategy, generator toEqual

Parser: hide/show handle `with opacity/visibility/display` strategy,
target detection for then-less chaining (add/remove/set/put as boundary).
Generator: inline run().toEqual([...]) pattern for eval-only tests.
Compiler: hide/show emit correct CSS property per strategy.
