feat: replace IO class with System class and remove separate IO module

- Delete wren_io.c, wren_io.h, and io.wren source files
- Remove multi-arity print overloads and IO.read/IO.time methods
- Add System class with print, printAll, write, writeAll methods to core.wren
- Update all documentation examples and README to use System.print instead of IO.print

^title System Class
^category core
The System class is a grab-bag of functionality exposed by the VM, mostly for
use during development or debugging.
## Static Methods
### System.**print**()
Prints a single newline to the console.
### System.**print**(object)
Prints [object] to the console followed by a newline. If not already a string,
the object is converted to a string by calling `toString` on it.
:::dart
System.print("I like bananas") // Prints "I like bananas".
### System.**printAll**(sequence)
Iterates over [sequence] and prints each element, then prints a single newline
at the end. Each element is converted to a string by calling `toString` on it.
:::dart
System.printAll([1, [2, 3], 4]) // Prints "1[2, 3]4".
### System.**write**(object)
Prints a single value to the console, but does not print a newline character
afterwards. Converts the value to a string by calling `toString` on it.
:::dart
System.write(4 + 5) // Prints "9".
In the above example, the result of `4 + 5` is printed, and then the prompt is
printed on the same line because no newline character was printed afterwards.
### System.**clock**
Returns the number of seconds (including fractional seconds) since the program
was started. This is usually used for benchmarking.
