WIP: Generate an IR.

The compiler has come a long way, but we still can't do int64, because it requires a non-cell storage size. There's no (sane) way to express conversions between int32 and int64 within the AST, because we have no uniform way of inserting conversion nodes. This is already a deep problem that has been hacked around for operator overloads and property accessors, and it doesn't scale. The solution is obvious: transform the AST into an IR. That's what we should have done from the beginning but didn't. Unfortunately it requires a *lot* of refactoring and a ton of boilerplate. So far, I have most of the boilerplate done, but the refactoring is only halfway there. CodeGenerator has not been ported to the IR yet. Once this gigantic patch is done, we'll have the following changes: - `struct value` will be eliminated, and good riddance. - The AST will be immutable after parsing. - The semantic analysis phase will output a new IR tree. - CodeGenerator will generate off the IR instead. Since the IR is a transformation of the AST, I'm expecting minimal changes to the end result. - functag_t will be replaced by FunctionType. V2: CG-IR can now assemble trivial programs. V3: CG-IR supports basic calls.
