/**
 * @file index_of.c
 * @brief Implements the OP_INDEX_OF opcode for finding the index of a value in an array in the VM.
 *
 * This file handles the OP_INDEX_OF instruction, which finds the index of a value in an array.
 * The value and array are popped from the stack, and the index (or -1) is pushed back.
 *
 * Behavior:
 * - Pops the value and array from the stack.
 * - Finds the index of the value in the array.
 * - Pushes the index (or -1 if not found) onto the stack.
 *
 * Error Handling:
 * - Exits with an error if the array is of the wrong type.
 *
 * Example:
 * - Bytecode: OP_INDEX_OF
 * - Stack before: [20, [10, 20, 30]]
 * - Stack after: [1]
