Optimize interpreter hot paths for arithmetic, comparisons, and control flow

[lahma]

Summary

• Add double (non-integer number) fast paths to arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /) that skip ToPrimitive/ToNumeric overhead for JsNumber operands
• Simplify CompareNumber to check integer type first with direct AsInteger(), handle NaN directly instead of falling back to expensive CompareComplex, remove unnecessary infinity check
• Move Remainder's integer check before ToNumeric conversion to skip redundant type conversion for integer operands
• Add GetBooleanValue() virtual method on JintExpression with overrides on comparison operators (<, >, <=, >=, ==, !=, ===, !==), used in for-loop, while-loop, and if-statement conditions to avoid JsBoolean wrapper and ToBoolean virtual dispatch
