feat: generic Array<T> + fix method lookup ambiguity

- Rewrite Std::Array as fully generic struct Array<T> with generic methods
- Use sizeof(T) for allocation/reallocation instead of hardcoded 8
- Fix method call lowering to lookup receiver type specifically instead of
  iterating all methodTable entries (prevents Array_Get matching for Box type)
- Add resolveTypeExpr typeSubst check for unknown named types
- Rename Array method parameters from 'arr' to 'self' for auto-registration
