Add compiler support for calling async functions directly with `await fn(args)` syntax, automatically translating to `await fn.call(args)`. Introduce `create_merge` Makefile target for merging Wren source files. Include new `apps/generator.wren` source code generator using OpenRouter API, `apps/phonebook.wren` CLI phonebook with SQLite backend, and `apps/minitut.md` Wren tutorial reference. Update `example/await_demo.wren` with parameterized async functions, nested awaits, and expression usage. Fix JSON parsing in `example/openrouter_demo.wren` to strip markdown code fences. Document new await syntax in `manual/api/scheduler.html`.
