Element 8+ of a long tuple is read through the Rest field, which Roslyn
loads by value; ILSpy turned that into an addressof over the loaded
copy, hiding the tuple field chain from every downstream matcher. Elide
the copy when the enclosing expression only reads through it - the read
then goes directly through the original address and folds into the
usual Item_N chain. The deconstruction transform's use-shape guard also
learns to walk that chain; whether each read really is a consumable
element access remains the job of MatchTupleElementRead and the escape
check.

The C# debug-steps view highlights and centers the exact AST node a
transform changed; the ILAst view already had the step tree and
replay-at-step but produced no highlight. Bring it to parity.
IL rendering has no token-writer seam like the C# output visitor, so
per-instruction text spans are recorded by bracketing
ILInstruction.WriteTo via a new INodeTrackingOutput. The dominant
inst.ReplaceWith(newInst) transform pattern detaches the instruction
passed to Step, so ILTransformContext gains EndStep to record the
produced instruction; Stepper additionally records the position's
ancestor chain as fallback candidates before the step-limit throw, so
the "show state before" view -- which halts at the selected step --
still resolves to a surviving ancestor (ultimately the ILFunction).
The highlight-range resolver is shared with the C# language.

Runtime async is a compiler feature that emits ordinary async/await (a
C# 5 construct), so reconstructing it should not require selecting C# 15.
The dedicated RuntimeAsync setting was also redundant: AsyncAwaitDecompiler
already runs the runtime-async transforms only when AsyncAwait is enabled.
Fold the behavior into the AsyncAwait setting and drop the separate toggle.

Convert `call System.Runtime.CompilerServices.AsyncHelpers.Await(value)`
to the IL Await instruction whenever DecompilerSettings.RuntimeAsync is
enabled. The state-machine async pipeline (AsyncAwaitDecompiler) already
produces the IL Await for downstream transforms (UsingTransform's
MatchDisposeBlock pattern-matches on it via UnwrapAwait); doing the
conversion in EarlyExpressionTransforms gives the runtime-async output
the same canonical shape before any consumer runs.
