feat: add String.fromCodePoint static method and refactor UTF-8 encoding into reusable utilities

Implement the `String.fromCodePoint(_)` primitive that creates a string from a Unicode code point, with validation for integer range 0–0x10ffff. Extract inline UTF-8 encoding logic from `readUnicodeEscape` in the compiler into new `wrenUtf8NumBytes` and `wrenUtf8Encode` utility functions in `wren_utils`, and add `wrenStringFromCodePoint` helper in `wren_value`. Update documentation for core classes to add "Methods" and "Static Methods" section headers, and include `String.fromCodePoint` docs with example. Add a test file `from_code_point.wren` covering various code points.

In general, methods on strings will work in terms of code units if they can do
so efficiently, and will otherwise deal in bytes.
## Static Methods
### String.**fromCodePoint**(codePoint)
Creates a new string containing the UTF-8 encoding of `codePoint`.
It is a runtime error if `codePoint` is not an integer between `0` and
`0x10ffff`, inclusive.
