Changes / improvements

• Add $$PROJECT_PATH, accessible through env::PROJECT_PATH.
• Deprecate $field.get(a) and $field.set(a, b). Replaced by a.$field and a.$field = b.

• Add json pretty print.

• $vaarg[^1] is supported. #3276
• Improve error message when a keyword is used a block parameter. #3275

Stdlib changes

• Add math::TAU / math::TWO_PI
