Description

Would be nice to support a Helmholtz free energy-based EOS in `NonIdealCompressibleEulerEquations`, for example from https://arxiv.org/pdf/2603.15112.

- [x] Basic infrastructure and ideal gas specialization: #2935
- [ ] Performance comparison between explicit EOS expressions and Helmholtz-based representations
- [ ] Helmholtz representations of vdW and Peng-Robinson

Research direction

Start by reviewing NonIdealCompressibleEulerEquations and the merged infrastructure and ideal-gas specialization in #2935. Compare explicit EOS expressions with Helmholtz-based representations, then investigate Helmholtz forms for van der Waals and Peng–Robinson EOS; done means the performance comparison and both representations are supported.
