/**
* @file to_string.c
* @brief Implements the OP_TO_STRING opcode for converting values to strings in the VM.
*
* This file handles the OP_TO_STRING instruction, which converts a value of any type
* into its string representation and pushes the result onto the stack.
*
* Behavior:
* - Pops a value from the stack.
* - Converts the value to a string based on its type:
* - Integers: Convert to decimal string (e.g., 42 → "42")
* - Strings: Return a copy of the string
* - Arrays: Convert to "[array n=<length>]"
* - Maps: Convert to "{map n=<length>}"
* - Functions: Convert to "<function@<address>>"
* - Nil: Convert to "nil"
* - Pushes the resulting string onto the stack.
*
* Error Handling:
* - Exits with an error if memory allocation fails during string creation.
*
* Example:
* - Bytecode: OP_TO_STRING
* - Stack before: [42]
* - Stack after: ["42"]
