Add a first-class bytes type to the DSL, with b"..." literals and base64/hex codecs (#2122)
* Add MT_BYTES mlrval type: foundation and disposition tables

First step toward a first-class bytes type in the DSL (#1231).
Adds MT_BYTES (payload []byte, rendered as lowercase hex in all output
formats, JSON-encoded as a hex string), extends every disposition
matrix/vector with the new row/column -- real cells for comparison,
sorting, and dot-concat of bytes with bytes; type-error stubs
elsewhere -- and adds sweep tests asserting no table has nil cells,
since Go zero-fills short array literals when MT_DIM grows.

Bytes values are not yet constructible from the DSL; b"..." literals
and constructor/codec functions follow in subsequent commits.

* Add b"..." bytes-literal syntax to the DSL

Adds a bytes_literal token to the grammar (regenerating the PGPG lexer
and parser) and a BytesLiteralNode in the CST which evaluates to an
MT_BYTES mlrval. Escape handling reuses UnbackslashStringLiteral,
which is already byte-oriented: b"\xff" is the single byte 0xff.
Unlike string literals, bytes literals never participate in
regex-capture replacement. A bare identifier b is unaffected.

Part of #1231.

* Add bytes DSL functions: conversions, codecs, and bytes-aware built-ins

- bytes(x) converts strings to bytes; string(b) reinterprets raw bytes
  as UTF-8 text (the reverse)
- base64_decode now always returns bytes (superseding the interim
  string-or-hex behavior); base64_encode accepts string or bytes
- New hex_encode/hex_decode functions
- is_bytes and asserting_bytes predicates
- md5/sha1/sha256/sha512 accept bytes, hashing the raw payload
- strlen of bytes is the byte count; substr/substr0/substr1 on bytes
  slice by byte position and return bytes

The Cyrillic-LDAP scenario from #1231 now works without exec
workarounds: string(base64_decode($x)) recovers the text, and binary
payloads survive undamaged as bytes.

Closes #1231.

* Add bytes-type docs and regression cases

Documents the bytes type on the data-types page, regenerates the
function-reference/man-page material, and adds regression coverage:
literal escape forms, operators (concat/compare/slice/sort and
type errors), conversions and codec round-trips, and CSV-to-JSON
output rendering of bytes fields.

Part of #1231.

* Reposition MT_BYTES to sort adjacent to MT_STRING in the type enum

MT_BYTES was appended after MT_ABSENT for index stability; move it
right after MT_STRING instead, since that's where it conceptually
belongs and where it already sorts in the cmp disposition matrices.
Mechanically re-derive all ~40 disposition tables in pkg/bifs and
pkg/mlrval accordingly.
