This commit marks the synthesized prelude and postlude functions for Algol68 modules as artificial. These functions are generated during the lowering of module-text. By setting DECL_ARTIFICIAL to 1, the compiler correctly identifies these as compiler-generated constructs rather than user-defined code. A new test case is added to verify this behavior.
