This is a step towards the new language spec. The `type` keyword now means something. So we now have
```
type Maybe a
Some (from_some : a)
None
```
as a thing one may write. Also `Some` and `None` are not standalone types now – only `Maybe` is.
This halfway to static methods – we still allow for things like `Number + Number` for backwards compatibility. It will disappear in the next PR.
The concept of a type is now used for method dispatch – with great impact on interpreter code density.
Some APIs in the STDLIB may require re-thinking. I take this is going to be up to the libraries team – some choices are not as good with a semantically different language. I've strived to update stdlib with minimal changes – to make sure it still works as it did.
It is worth mentioning the conflicting constructor name convention I've used: if `Foo` only has one constructor, previously named `Foo`, we now have:
```
type Foo
Foo_Data f1 f2 f3
```
This is now necessary, because we still don't have proper statics. When they arrive, this can be changed (quite easily, with SED) to use them, and figure out the actual convention then.
I have also reworked large parts of the builtins system, because it did not work at all with the new concepts.
It also exposes the type variants in SuggestionBuilder, that was the original tiny PR this was based on.
PS I'm so sorry for the size of this. No idea how this could have been smaller. It's a breaking language change after all.
`main` method is now special because it is trully static i.e. no
implicit `self` is being generated for it.
But since REPL's `main` isn't called `main` its invocation was missing
an argument.

# Important Notes
Will work on adding a CI test for REPL to avoid problems with REPL in a
follow up PR.
This change modifies the current language by requiring explicit `self` parameter declaration
for methods. Methods without `self` parameter in the first position should be treated as statics
although that is not yet part of this PR. We add an implicit self to all methods
This obviously required updating the whole stdlib and its components, tests etc but the change
is pretty straightforward in the diff.
Notice that this change **does not** change method dispatch, which was removed in the last changes.
This was done on purpose to simplify the implementation for now. We will likely still remove all
those implicit selfs to bring true statics.
Minor caveat - since `main` doesn't actually need self, already removed that which simplified
a lot of code.
I was modifying `Date_Spec.enso` today and made a mistake. When executing with I could see the error, but the process got stuck...
```

...had to kill it with Ctrl-C. This PR fixes the problem by moving `getAssociatedConstructor` call into `try` block, catching the exception and exiting properly.
This PR adds sources for Enso language support in IGV (and NetBeans). The support is based on TextMate grammar shown in the editor and registration of the Enso language so IGV can find it. Then this PR adds new GitHub Actions workflow file to build the project using Maven.
In order to analyse why the `runner.jar` is slow to start, let's _"self sample"_ it using the [sampler library](https://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-sampler/org/netbeans/modules/sampler/Sampler.html). As soon as the `Main.main` is launched, the sampling starts and once the server is up, it writes its data into `/tmp/language-server.npss`.
Open the `/tmp/language-server.npss` with [VisualVM](https://visualvm.github.io) - you should have one copy in your
GraalVM `bin/jvisualvm` directory and there has to be a GraalVM to run Enso.
#### Changelog
- add: the `MethodsSampler` that gathers information in `.npss` format
- add: `--profiling` flag that enables the sampler
- add: language server processes the updates in batches
Finally this pull request proposes `--inspect` option to allow [debugging of `.enso`](e948f2535f/docs/debugger/README.md) in Chrome Developer Tools:
```bash
enso$ ./built-distribution/enso-engine-0.0.0-dev-linux-amd64/enso-0.0.0-dev/bin/enso --inspect --run ./test/Tests/src/Data/Numbers_Spec.enso
Debugger listening on ws://127.0.0.1:9229/Wugyrg9Nm4OUL9YhzdcElmLft71ayZW3LMUPCdPyNAY
For help, see: https://www.graalvm.org/tools/chrome-debugger
E.g. in Chrome open: devtools://devtools/bundled/js_app.html?ws=127.0.0.1:9229/Wugyrg9Nm4OUL9YhzdcElmLft71ayZW3LMUPCdPyNAY
```
copy the printed URL into chrome browser and you should see:

One can also debug the `.enso` files in NetBeans or [VS Code with Apache Language Server extension](https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Apache+NetBeans+Extension+for+Visual+Studio+Code) just pass in special JVM arguments:
```bash
enso$ JAVA_OPTS=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000 ./built-distribution/enso-engine-0.0.0-dev-linux-amd64/enso-0.0.0-dev/bin/enso --run ./test/Tests/src/Data/Numbers_Spec.enso
Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 8000
```
and then _Debug/Attach Debugger_. Once connected choose the _Toggle Pause in GraalVM Script_ button in the toolbar (the "G" button):
![obrazek](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/26887752/167235598-98266c7e-beb5-406b-adc6-8167b3d1b453.png)
and your execution shall stop on the next `.enso` line of code. This mode allows to debug both - the Enso code as well as Java code.
Originally started as an attempt to write test in Java:
* test written in Java
* support for JUnit in `build.sbt`
* compile Java with `-g` - so it can be debugged
* Implementation of `StatementNode` - only gets created when `materialize` request gets to `BlockNode`
Debug is not imported by default (let me know if it should be?)
# Important Notes
When Debug was part of Builtins.enso everything was imported. Let me know if the new setup is not as expected.
