## Description

Create the main DSL method that allows classes to define auxiliary tables

## Acceptance Criteria

- [x] aux_table method is defined
- [x] Method accepts table name and block
- [x] Method stores auxiliary table configuration
- [x] Method validates input parameters

## Implementation Plan

1. Design the aux_table DSL method signature and options\n2. Implement table name validation and storage\n3. Add support for block-based table definition\n4. Store configuration in aux_table_configurations hash\n5. Add validation for duplicate table definitions\n6. Write comprehensive tests for the DSL method

## Implementation Notes

Successfully implemented the aux_table DSL method with the following features:\n\n- Created aux_table method that accepts table name and block\n- Added Configuration class to store table definitions\n- Implemented comprehensive parameter validation (nil checks, type checks, block requirement)\n- Added duplicate table definition protection\n- Stored configurations in aux_table_configurations hash\n- Updated aux_table_config and has_aux_tables? methods to work with configurations\n- Created comprehensive test suite with 26 passing tests covering all functionality\n\nAll acceptance criteria completed:\n- ✓ aux_table method is defined and accepts table name and block\n- ✓ Method stores auxiliary table configuration properly\n- ✓ Method validates input parameters thoroughly\n- ✓ All tests pass with comprehensive coverage
