Significantly improves the polyglot Date support (as introduced by #3374). It enhances the `Date_Spec` to run it in four flavors:
- with Enso Date (as of now)
- with JavaScript Date
- with JavaScript Date wrapped in (JavaScript) array
- with Java LocalDate allocated directly
The code is then improved by necessary modifications to make the `Date_Spec` pass.
# Important Notes
James has requested in [#181755990](https://www.pivotaltracker.com/n/projects/2539304/stories/181755990) - e.g. _Review and improve InMemory Table support for Dates, Times, DateTimes, BigIntegers_ the following program to work:
```
foreign js dateArr = """
return [1, new Date(), 7]
main =
IO.println <| (dateArr.at 1).week_of_year
```
the program works with here in provided changes and prints `27` as of today.
@jdunkerley has provided tests for proper behavior of date in `Table` and `Column`. Those tests are working as of [f16d07e](f16d07e640). One just needs to accept `List<Value>` and then query `Value` for `isDate()` when needed.
Last round of changes is related to **exception handling**. 8b686b12bd makes sure `makePolyglotError` accepts only polyglot values. Then it wraps plain Java exceptions into `WrapPlainException` with `has_type` method - 60da5e70ed - the remaining changes in the PR are only trying to get all tests working in the new setup.
The support for `Time` isn't part of this PR yet.
More and more often I need a way to only recover a specific type of a dataflow error (in a similar manner as with panics). So the API for `Error.catch` has been amended to more closely resemble `Panic.catch`, allowing to handle only specific types of dataflow errors, passing others through unchanged. The default is `Any`, meaning all errors are caught by default, and the behaviour of `x.catch` remains unchanged.
A semi-manual s/this/self appied to the whole standard library.

In the compiler promoted to use constants instead of hardcoded
`this`/`self` whenever possible.
# Important Notes
The PR **does not** require explicit `self` parameter declaration for methods as this part
of the design is still under consideration.
This introduces a tiny alternative to our stdlib, that can be used for testing the interpreter. There are 2 main advantages of such a solution:
1. Performance: on my machine, `runtime-with-intstruments/test` drops from 146s to 65s, while `runtime/test` drops from 165s to 51s. >6 mins total becoming <2 mins total is awesome. This alone means I'll drink less coffee in these breaks and will be healthier.
2. Better separation of concepts – currently working on a feature that breaks _all_ enso code. The dependency of interpreter tests on the stdlib means I have no means of incremental testing – ALL of stdlib must compile. This is horrible, rendered my work impossible, and resulted in this PR.
