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`.
This is just a bunch of `sed` calls:

... and reformat
Many changes got bundled in here and would be too tedious to separate.
Closes#330
See changes in `shared_ast/definitions.ml` to check the main point.
- the biggest change is a modification of the struct and enum types in
expressions: they are now stored as `Map`s throughout passes, and no longer
converted to indexed lists after scopelang. Their accessors are also changed,
and tuples only exist in Lcalc (they're used for closure conversion).
This implied adding some more information in the contexts, to keep the mapping
between struct fields and scope output variables. It should also be much more
robust (no longer relying on assumptions upon different orderings).
- another very pervasive change is more cosmetic: the rewrite of the main AST to
use inline records, labelling individual subfields.
- moved the checks for correct definitions and accesses of structures from
`Scope_to_dcalc` to `Typing`
- defining some new shallow iterators in module `Shared_ast.Expr`, and
factorising a few same-pass rewriting functions accordingly (closure
conversion, optimisations, etc.)
- some smaller style improvements (ensuring we use the proper compare/equal
functions instead of `=` in a few `when` closes, for example)
This will allow to unify with types used earlier in the
pipeline (`Scopelang.Ast.typ`).
It seems cleaner! But some areas may warrant a later clean-up, in particular
handling of options and their types in the backends, or possible name conflicts
of structs/enums with built-in types when printing.
Note that there were significant differences between the two printers (see the test diff!). Overall the `dcalc` one seemed newer so that's what I took, with only the required additions from `lcalc` (exceptions, raise and catch)
The AST structures track annotations (e.g., at the moment, source code
position information) in a lot of places. This patch tidies up a bit and
removes some duplication, ensuring a single level of annotation wrapping
at each AST recursion level.
This will be important when adding type information in these
annotations, because there will be consitency constraints to be ensured
and duplication is a likely source of mistakes.
this patch is just a bunch of `sed` commands
```shell
cd compiler
sed -i 's/Pos.marked/Marked.pos/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos.unmark/Marked.unmark/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos\.get_position/Marked.get_mark/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos\.same_pos_as/Marked.same_mark_as/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos\.map_under_mark/Marked.map_under_mark/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos\.mark/Marked.mark/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
sed -i 's/Pos\.compare_marked/Marked.compare/g' *.ml* **/*.ml*
```
This avoids many intermediate calls to e.g. `Format.asprintf`; should result in
some cases in "more correct" use of `Format`¹, avoid the computation of unused
debug strings, and make the code more readable.
¹ for `Format` to work as expected, all intermediate calls need to go through
it. Some cases of formatting to an intermediate string then printing through Format
again are still present, but this makes the situation better.
