This adds a few positions to the parser, and tweaks some others, vastly
improving the reporting of some errors (inconsistent functions definitions, but
also exceptions cycles, etc.)
* temporary and undocumented while waiting for discussion an approval
* previous patches already allowed definition (at toplevel) but there was no
syntax for calls
* no syntax for multi-args _local_ functions yet
Using them will lead to "not supported yet" errors soon after, but it's a start
to get to handling separate modules.
The idea is that `foo` can now also be `Bar.foo`, `Bar.Baz.foo`, `foo.Struc.fld`
can be `foo.Bar.Baz.Struc.fld`, etc.
The next steps are to enable the lookups to handle this paths, and to provide
ways to load the external modules to feed these lookups.
Closes#373
This forbids expressions such as `a and b or c`, avoiding the need to set an
implicit priority between `and`, `or` and `xor`, which I find error-prone.
Instead, when that appears, a message asking for explicit parentheses will be
shown to the user.
Implementation note: since that would be extremely tedious to do in the parser
directly, the parser is set to allow right-associativity without discrimination
for the logical operators, and the check is done during desugaring. This
required to explicit parentheses in the surface AST to discriminate the case
where the priority was explicit.
This uses the same disambiguation mechanism put in place for
structures, calling the typer on individual rules on the desugared AST
to propagate types, in order to resolve ambiguous operators like `+`
to their strongly typed counterparts (`+!`, `+.`, `+$`, `+@`, `+$`) in
the translation to scopelang.
The patch includes some normalisation of the definition of all the
operators, and classifies them based on their typing policy instead of
their arity. It also adds a little more flexibility:
- a couple new operators, like `-` on date and duration
- optional type annotation on some aggregation constructions
The `Shared_ast` lib is also lightly restructured, with the `Expr`
module split into `Type`, `Operator` and `Expr`.
Some typing errors are changed a little, because they get triggered during the
typing of the disambiguation pass, which does not specify the expected return
type (it's an expected invariant that it should not be needed for
disambiguation).
It would be possible to still specify these types during disambiguation just to
get the same errors, but since the newer ones don't appear to be clearly worse
at the moment, it has not been done.
This is just a bunch of `sed` calls:
```shell
sed -i 's/ScopeSet/ScopeName.Set/g' compiler/**/*.ml*
sed -i 's/ScopeMap/ScopeName.Map/g' compiler/**/*.ml*

... and reformat
