"No warnings allowed" compiling mode over 1 year ago

AI Summary: Implement a "no warnings allowed" compilation mode for the Jou compiler, similar to the `-Werror` flag in C compilers. This mode should cause the compiler to exit with an error code if any warnings are generated, enforcing stricter code quality checks, especially useful in CI/CD pipelines.

Complexity: 4/5
