/**
 * @file max.c
 * @brief Implements the OP_MAX opcode for finding the maximum of two values in the VM.
 *
 * This file handles the OP_MAX instruction, which finds the maximum of two integer values.
 * The values are popped from the stack, and the result is pushed back.
 *
 * Behavior:
 * - Pops two integer values from the stack.
 * - Finds the maximum of the two values.
 * - Pushes the result onto the stack.
 *
 * Error Handling:
 * - Exits with an error if the operands are not integers.
 *
 * Example:
 * - Bytecode: OP_MAX
 * - Stack before: [10, 42]
 * - Stack after: [42]
