Previously, the abstract syntax tree (AST) used static types, meaning
that an ast_function_t would always have a ast_return_stmt_t as
its body. However, this assumption is not always true, as we may have
void functions that do not have a return statement. Additionally, the
ast_return_stmt_t always had a number associated with it, but this too
is not always the case.
To make this possible, I need to perform a few changes in the whole
project. One of the main changes is that there is no longer the
inheritance hack. That mechanism was replaced by composition and
pointers where required for recursive type reference.
It is important to mention that I decided to use union type to implement
the composition. There is two main advantages in this approach:
1. There is only one function to allocate memory for all kind of nodes.
2. There is no need to cast the data.
In summary, this commit introduces changes to support dynamic typing
in the AST, by replacing the inheritance hack with composition and
using union types to simplify memory allocation and type casting.

With this function now it is possible to assert a token
given an index.

We want to tokenizer arithmetic expressions.
We are handling exceptional cases with UNKNOWN token.

We are allocating heap memory to create tokens value, we can minimize the
number of allocations if we start using string_view.
We have other problems, right now the tokens value ownership are quite
unclear once the AST nodes also share the memory allocation done by
token_get_next_token function.
It's important to clarify we also have memory leaks on the current
implementation. Hence, we are going to start using string_view to make
the memory management easier. :^)
