0.4.0

[xTrayambak]

This is a new Bali release, and as usual, brings new features and improvements.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where JavaScript code could call internal Bali APIs, which'd make fingerprinting the runtime very trivial.
• Initializing a mutable array would result in the address index pointing to its last element instead of the container itself (Array address points to last atom in its container instead of full sequence atom #45)
• Fixed decrement parsing, yet again
• Improved loop elision algorithm (Loop elision optimizes away loop with side effects #46)
• Value capture would result in invalid codegen (Value capture results in invalid codegen #44)
• ToNumber now handles floats correctly instead of reaching the unreachable branch

Dependencies

• Bali now uses Sanchar 2.0.2, which brings improvements to the URL parser

New Features

• Added array indexing. You can now access elements of an array. If you do an out-of-bounds read, undefined will be returned.

Breaking Changes

There should be no breaking changes in this release. You can safely upgrade to it.
