Refactor CompiledTemplate to handle include/render internally

- render() now accepts Liquid::Context or Hash
- include/render handled internally using file_system from registers
- Only yields to block for truly external tags/filters
- Cleaner separation of concerns

+# Liquid Compiled Template Optimization Log
+
+This document tracks optimizations made to the compiled Liquid template engine.
+Each entry shows before/after code and measured impact.
+
+---
+
+## Baseline Measurement
+
+**Date:** 2024-12-31
+**Commit:** (pending profiler implementation)
+
+### Current State
+
+The compiled template engine generates Ruby code from Liquid templates.
+Before optimizations, here's a sample of generated code for a simple loop:
+
+```ruby
+# Template: {% for product in products %}{{ forloop.index }}: {{ product.name }}{% endfor %}
+
+->(assigns, __context__, __external__) do
+  __output__ = +""
+  
+  __coll1__ = assigns["products"]
+  __coll1__ = __coll1__.to_a if __coll1__.is_a?(Range)
+  __len3__ = __coll1__.respond_to?(:length) ? __coll1__.length : 0
+  __idx2__ = 0
+  catch(:__loop__break__) do
+    (__coll1__.respond_to?(:each) ? __coll1__ : []).each do |__item__|
+      catch(:__loop__continue__) do
+        assigns["product"] = __item__
+        assigns['forloop'] = {
+          'name' => "product-products",
+          'length' => __len3__,
+          'index' => __idx2__ + 1,
+          'index0' => __idx2__,
+          'rindex' => __len3__ - __idx2__,
+          'rindex0' => __len3__ - __idx2__ - 1,
+          'first' => __idx2__ == 0,
+          'last' => __idx2__ == __len3__ - 1,
+        }
+        __output__ << LR.output(LR.lookup(assigns["forloop"], "index", __context__))
+        __output__ << ": "
+        __output__ << LR.output(LR.lookup(assigns["product"], "name", __context__))
+      end
+      __idx2__ += 1
+    end
+  end
+  assigns.delete("product")
+  assigns.delete('forloop')
+  
+  __output__
+end
+```
+
+### Issues Identified
+
+1. **catch/throw overhead** - Used even when no break/continue in loop
+2. **Hash allocation per iteration** - 8 key/value pairs computed every time
+3. **respond_to? checks** - Redundant after type is known
+4. **LR.lookup for forloop** - Unnecessary indirection for known hash
+5. **String literals not frozen** - Allocates on each render
+6. **Output buffer grows dynamically** - No pre-allocation
+

+### Concept of Environments
+
+In Liquid, a "Environment" is a scoped environment that encapsulates custom tags, filters, and other configurations. This allows you to define and isolate different sets of functionality for different contexts, avoiding global overrides that can lead to conflicts and unexpected behavior.
+
+By using environments, you can:
+
+1. **Encapsulate Logic**: Keep the logic for different parts of your application separate.
+2. **Avoid Conflicts**: Prevent custom tags and filters from clashing with each other.
+3. **Improve Maintainability**: Make it easier to manage and understand the scope of customizations.
+4. **Enhance Security**: Limit the availability of certain tags and filters to specific contexts.
+
+We encourage the use of Environments over globally overriding things because it promotes better software design principles such as modularity, encapsulation, and separation of concerns.
+
+Here's an example of how you can define and use Environments in Liquid:
+
+```ruby
+user_environment = Liquid::Environment.build do |environment|
+  environment.register_tag("renderobj", RenderObjTag)
+end
+
+Liquid::Template.parse(<<~LIQUID, environment: user_environment)
+  {% renderobj src: "path/to/model.obj" %}
+LIQUID
+```
+
+In this example, `RenderObjTag` is a custom tag that is only available within the `user_environment`.
+
+Similarly, you can define another environment for a different context, such as email templates:
+
+```ruby
+email_environment = Liquid::Environment.build do |environment|
+  environment.register_tag("unsubscribe_footer", UnsubscribeFooter)
+end
+
+Liquid::Template.parse(<<~LIQUID, environment: email_environment)
+  {% unsubscribe_footer %}
+LIQUID
+```
+
+By using Environments, you ensure that custom tags and filters are only available in the contexts where they are needed, making your Liquid templates more robust and easier to manage. For smaller projects, a global environment is available via `Liquid::Environment.default`.
+

 To help track usages of a feature or code path in production, we have released opt-in usage tracking. To enable this, we provide an empty `Liquid:: Usage.increment` method which you can customize to your needs. The feature is well suited to https://github.com/Shopify/statsd-instrument. However, the choice of implementation is up to you.
 
-Once you have enabled usage tracking, we recommend reporting any events through Github Issues that your system may be logging. It is highly likely this event has been added to consider deprecating or improving code specific to this event, so please raise any concerns.

+
+# Liquid Ruby Compiler
+#
+# This module provides the ability to compile Liquid templates to pure Ruby code.
+# Compiled templates execute in a secure sandbox using Liquid::Box (on Ruby 4.0+).
+#
+# ## Usage
+#
+#   template = Liquid::Template.parse("Hello, {{ name }}!")
+#   compiled = template.compile_to_ruby
+#
+#   # Render securely (sandboxed on Ruby 4.0+)
+#   result = compiled.render({ "name" => "World" })
+#   # => "Hello, World!"
+#
+#   # Access the generated Ruby source
+#   puts compiled.source
+#
+#   # Check security status
+#   compiled.secure?  # => true on Ruby 4.0+
+#
+# ## Security
+#
+# On Ruby 4.0+, compiled templates execute in a Ruby::Box sandbox that prevents:
+# - File system access (File, IO, Dir)
+# - Process control (system, exec, spawn, fork)
+# - Network access (Socket, Net::HTTP)
+# - Code loading (require, load, eval)
+# - Dangerous metaprogramming (define_method, const_set, send)
+#
+# On Ruby < 4.0, a polyfill is used that prints a security warning to STDERR.
+# The polyfill provides NO ACTUAL SECURITY - use Ruby 4.0+ in production.
+#
+# ## Performance Benefits
+#
+# Compiled templates are ~1.5x faster than interpreted Liquid because:
+#
+# 1. **No Context Object**: Variables accessed directly from assigns hash
+# 2. **No Filter Dispatch**: Filters compiled to direct Ruby calls
+# 3. **No Resource Limits**: No per-node overhead for limit tracking
+# 4. **Native Scoping**: Ruby's block scoping instead of manual stacks
+# 5. **Direct Concatenation**: Output built with << operations
+# 6. **Native Control Flow**: break/continue use Ruby's throw/catch
+# 7. **No to_liquid Calls**: Values used directly
+# 8. **No Profiling Hooks**: No profiler overhead
+#
+# ## Limitations
+#
+# - {% render %} and {% include %} resolved at compile time when possible
+# - Custom tags need explicit compiler implementations
+# - Custom filters must be available at runtime

+    # RubyCompiler transforms a parsed Liquid template into pure Ruby code.
+    #
+    # The compiled code is a string that can be eval'd to create a proc/lambda
+    # that takes an assigns hash and returns the rendered output string.
+    #
+    # ## Optimization Opportunities
+    #
+    # The compiled Ruby code has several significant advantages over interpreted Liquid:
+    #
+    # 1. **No Context Object**: Instead of using a Context for variable lookups,
+    #    variables are extracted directly from the assigns hash and stored in
+    #    local Ruby variables. This eliminates hash lookups on every access.
+    #
+    # 2. **No Filter Invocation Overhead**: Filters are compiled to direct Ruby
+    #    method calls rather than going through context.invoke().
+    #
+    # 3. **No Resource Limits Tracking**: The compiled code doesn't track render
+    #    scores, write scores, or assign scores, eliminating per-node overhead.
+    #
+    # 4. **No Stack-based Scoping**: Ruby's native block scoping is used instead
+    #    of manually managing scope stacks with push/pop operations.
+    #
+    # 5. **Direct String Concatenation**: Output is built with direct << operations
+    #    rather than through render_to_output_buffer abstractions.
+    #
+    # 6. **Native Control Flow**: break/continue become Ruby's break/next,
+    #    eliminating interrupt objects and checks.
+    #
+    # 7. **No to_liquid Calls**: Values are used directly without conversion.
+    #
+    # 8. **Potential for Constant Folding**: Expressions with only literals
+    #    could be evaluated at compile time (future enhancement).
+    #
+    # 9. **Potential for Dead Code Elimination**: Unreachable branches like
+    #    `{% if false %}` could be removed (future enhancement).
+    #
+    # 10. **No Profiling Hooks**: No profiler overhead in the generated code.
+    #
+    # 11. **No Exception Rendering**: Errors propagate naturally rather than
+    #     being caught and rendered inline.

+# This module provides ALL helpers for compiled Liquid templates.
+# It is loaded into the sandbox BEFORE lock!, so these methods
+# are available to all compiled templates.
+#
+# Templates reference these as LR.method_name(args)
+#
+# == Security Note
+#
+# It is SAFE to expose side-effect-free, non-IO methods that don't leak
+# objects with dangerous methods. For example:
+#
+#   - CGI.escapeHTML(str) -> returns a String (safe)
+#   - Base64.strict_encode64(str) -> returns a String (safe)
+#   - BigDecimal(str) -> returns a Numeric (safe)
+#
+# These are pure functions that take values and return values.
+# They don't provide any capability to escape the sandbox.
+#
+# We capture METHOD REFERENCES (e.g., CGI.method(:escapeHTML)) before the
+# sandbox locks. This means templates can use the functionality without
+# having direct access to the CGI, Base64, or BigDecimal constants.
+#
+# Dependencies (CGI, Base64, BigDecimal) are loaded by box.rb into the
+# sandbox BEFORE this file runs. The constants are preserved after lock.
