Summary

Successfully implemented LEAN project support with Mathlib dependencies. Fixed toolchain mismatch issue by automatically copying Mathlib's lean-toolchain file after downloading dependencies.

Key Changes

1. Bitwise operation support: Maps bitxor to Int.xor in LEAN formulas
2. Import management: Automatically includes import Mathlib.Data.Int.Bitwise when needed
3. LEAN project initialization: Creates temporary project with proper lakefile configuration
4. Version syntax fix: Changed from "0.1.0" to v!"0.1.0" to match Lake's StdVer type
5. Cross-platform compatibility: Replaced sh -c "cd ... && command" with executable wrapper scripts
6. Toolchain matching: Automatically copies Mathlib's lean-toolchain to avoid version conflicts

Latest Fix

The project no longer creates a hardcoded lean-toolchain file with leanprover/lean4:stable. Instead, after running lake update to download Mathlib, the update script copies Mathlib's lean-toolchain file to ensure version compatibility. This prevents the error:

Dependency Mathlib uses a different lean-toolchain
  Project uses leanprover/lean4:stable
  Mathlib uses leanprover/lean4:v4.24.0

All tests passing.

<issue_title>Create temporary LEAN project when running LEAN tests to install modules like Mathlib.Data.Int.Bitwise</issue_title>
<issue_description>When running the tests with the environment variable LODA_TEST_WITH_EXTERNAL_TOOLS=1, the tests will execute the LEAN tool to verify the correctness of the generated formulas. We use LeanFormula::eval() to run the LEAN tool. This should be extended such that it supports creating a temporary LEAN project before evaluating the formula. We want to use this to be able install additional dependencies and use them in the generated LEAN code, e.g.: import Mathlib.Data.Int.Bitwise. The LEAN project should be temporary and only created one in the beginning. It should be possible to initialize and build it using LEAN's lake command.

As a test, we want to support the bitxor function in the LEAN formula generator and map it to the LEAN function Int.xor. This requires import Mathlib.Data.Int.Bitwise. Use the test program A092242 to validate it.

Fixed in commit 0e0d9a8. Changed the version syntax from "0.1.0" to v!"0.1.0" to use Lake's StdVer type format instead of a plain String.

Fixed in commit [hash]. Replaced sh -c "cd ... && command" with temporary wrapper scripts to avoid shell command chaining issues. The scripts are created, made executable, run, and then cleaned up after execution.

The cache will not work unless your project's toolchain matches Mathlib's toolchain
This can be achieved by copying the contents of the file `.lake/packages/mathlib/lean-toolchain`
into the `lean-toolchain` file at the root directory of your project
You can use `cp .lake/packages/mathlib/lean-toolchain ./lean-toolchain`

Fixed in commit [hash]. Removed hardcoded lean-toolchain creation and instead copy Mathlib's toolchain file after lake update to ensure version compatibility. The update script now includes: cp .lake/packages/mathlib/lean-toolchain ./lean-toolchain to match the Mathlib dependency version.
