Make $^R writable and auto-update on matches (+2,266 tests) 🚀

This commit fixes a critical blocker preventing 2,266 tests from running
in pat_rt_report.t by making $^R writable and auto-updating it on matches.

## Problem

$^R (last regex code block result) was implemented as a read-only
ScalarSpecialVariable, causing "Modification of a read-only value attempted"
errors when tests tried to assign to it:

```perl
$^R = 'Nothing';  # ERROR: read-only!
```

This blocked 2,321 tests in pat_rt_report.t at test 193.

## Solution

1. **Made $^R writable:** Changed from ScalarSpecialVariable to regular
   RuntimeScalar (like $_), initialized in GlobalContext

2. **Auto-update on matches:** Added code to update $^R automatically
   when regex with (?{...}) blocks matches successfully

3. **Performance optimization:** Added hasCodeBlockCaptures flag to
   RuntimeRegex to only update $^R when needed (avoid overhead)

## Implementation Details

**GlobalContext.java:**
- Removed ScalarSpecialVariable registration for $^R
- Initialize as regular writable variable: getGlobalVariable(encodeSpecialVar("R"))

**RuntimeRegex.java:**
- Added hasCodeBlockCaptures boolean field
- Set flag after pattern compilation by checking for 'cb' named groups
- Update $^R on successful matches if hasCodeBlockCaptures is true
- Preserves previous value on failed matches (Perl behavior)

## Performance

The hasCodeBlockCaptures flag ensures $^R updates only occur when:
1. The regex has (?{...}) code blocks
2. The match succeeds

This avoids expensive global variable lookups for 99% of regex operations.

## Perl Compatibility Verified

```perl
$^R = 'initial';           # Now works! ✅
"abc" =~ /xyz(?{ 42 })/;   # Failed match
print $^R;                  # Still 'initial' ✅
"abc" =~ /abc(?{ 99 })/;   # Successful match
print $^R;                  # Now 99 ✅
```

## Test Results

**pat_rt_report.t:**
- Before: 193/2514 passing (7.7%) - crashed on "read-only" error
- After: 2459/2514 passing (97.8%)
- **Improvement: +2,266 tests** (unlocked entire test suite!)

Remaining 55 failures are due to unimplemented regex verbs (*:NAME),
not related to $^R.

## Files Modified

- GlobalContext.java: Changed $^R initialization
- RuntimeRegex.java: Added flag, detection, and auto-update logic

## Impact Summary

This single fix unlocked **2,266 tests** by correcting a fundamental
misunderstanding about $^R's mutability. Combined with earlier fixes:
- Pack.t alignment: +3,753 tests
- Empty (?{}) blocks: enabled
- **$^R writable: +2,266 tests**

Total improvements this session: **6,019+ tests!** 🎉
