Previously, we lacked a dynamic array for storing children elements in
our abstract syntax tree (AST). This commit introduces a new
implementation that dynamically adjusts its capacity as elements are
added, using a doubling strategy.
I considered two approaches for managing the vector's memory
allocation: allocating it on the heap, or providing a vector_init
function that allocates only the items array. Ultimately, I decided to
provide a vector_new function for instantiating the vector, as this
aligns with the expected usage pattern when there is a destroy function.
With this new implementation, we can efficiently store and manage AST
children, enabling more flexible and expressive tree structures.
