This commit resolves the long-standing limitation where non-char pointer differences didn't work correctly. The root cause was incorrect ARM instruction encoding for arithmetic right shift, not a parser issue.
The fix enables proper pointer differences for all types:
Summary by cubic
Fixes pointer arithmetic across all pointer types by correcting ARM SRA encoding and unifying pointer arithmetic in the parser. Pointer differences now return element counts for int*, struct*, typedef pointers, and complex expressions.
