irc/parser: use explicit IR nodes for patterns and interpolation

Replaces lambda pattern desugaring with direct `LambdaPatternNode`
generation, which:

- Separates required and optional fields in pattern structure
- Preserves @-binding and ellipsis information in IR
- Remove like 50 lines of Let-binding desugaring logic

and replace string interpolation concatenation tree with
`StringInterpolationNode` to:

- Use `StringPart::make_literal/make_expr` for cleaner representation
- Optimize single-literal strings to `ConstStringNode`
- Remove `toString` builtin wrapper generation
