Tokenizer already had 'lazy' as a keyword. This commit wires it through:
parser : parse-prefix emits (:lazy EXPR), like the existing 'assert'
handler.
eval : creates a one-element cell with state ('Thunk' expr env).
host : _lazy_force flips the cell to ('Forced' v) on first call
and returns the cached value thereafter.
runtime : module Lazy = struct let force lz = _lazy_force lz end.
Memoisation confirmed by tracking a side-effect counter through two
forces of the same lazy:
let counter = ref 0 in
let lz = lazy (counter := !counter + 1; 42) in
let a = Lazy.force lz in
let b = Lazy.force lz in
(a + b) * 100 + !counter = 8401 (= 84*100 + 1)
