This adds the division operator (/) to the language. - Implements unsigned division using x86 div instruction - Adds special handling in emit_div_op for division operations - Updates linter to recognize / as a valid operator - Updates grammar documentation - Adds test example demonstrating division The implementation emits "xor dx,dx; div cx" to perform unsigned division with the quotient returned in ax. Total size impact: 0 bytes (still fits in 512-byte boot sector) This was achieved by using xchg instead of mov in emit_op, saving the exact bytes needed for the division operator.
