Feature: SWC Compatibility

[jankapunkt]

The new SWC compiler in Meteor 3.3 is throwing errors with Blaze, because of the usage of arguments.
This PR attempts to replace all arguments with spread operator ...args

[Copilot]

Pull request overview

This draft PR migrates Blaze from using the arguments object to the ES6 spread operator (...args) to ensure compatibility with Meteor 3.3's new SWC compiler. The changes are systematic and comprehensive, affecting the core Spacebars runtime, Blaze templating engine, HTML visitors, and related test files.

Key Changes

• Replaced all arguments object usage with spread operator parameters (...args) across Spacebars, Blaze, HTMLjs, and observe-sequence packages
• Eliminated Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments) patterns in favor of using spread parameters directly as arrays
• Updated function signatures to use rest parameters and destructuring where appropriate
