Louis Gesbert 0f9ee2c72e Refacter the main Driver module
- Use separate functions for successive passes in module `Driver.Passes`
- Use other functions for end results printing in module `Driver.Commands`

As a consequence, it is much more flexible to use by plugins or libs and we no
longer need the complex polymorphic variant parameter.

This patch leverages previous changes to use Cmdliner subcommands and
effectively specialises the flags of each Catala subcommand.

Other changes include:

- an attempt to normalise the generic options and reduce the number of global
  references. Some are ok, like `debug` ; some would better be further cleaned up,
  e.g. the ones used by Proof backend were moved to a `Proof.globals` module and
  need discussion. The printer no longer relies on the global languages and prints
  money amounts in an agnostic way.
- the plugin directory is automatically guessed and loaded even in dev setups.
  Plugins are shown by the main `catala` command and listed in `catala --help`
- exception catching at the toplevel has been refactored a bit as well; return
  codes are normalised to follow the manpage and avoid codes >= 128 that are
  generally reserved for shells.

French Law Libraries

This folder presents a working example of how Catala could be distributed and deployed inside existing applications. Each sub-folder is specialized for a particular programming language, and features a ready-to-use library of all the French public algorithms coded up using Catala so far.

General principles

Let us say you want to deploy a Catala program inside an application written in programming language X. The Catala compiler will translate the source Catala program into X, yielding a new .x source code file. This .x file will export functions corresponding to the scopes of the original Catala program. You can then reuse those exported functions in your application written in X.
