Summary: public Two cases were not handled properly so far:
1. Declaration of a reference variable missed reference bit in type
2. Parameters to a function expecting T& had type T.
The way to distinguish reference types from value types is to look
whether parameter is type 'T rvalue' or type 'T lvalue' (xvalue probably as well)
Unfortunately, we can't just say 'T lvalue' = 'T&' because it would break
a lot of things in our frontend.
However, we know that when parameter to a function call has type 'T lvalue', it has to be 'T&' type.
Same applies when init_expression type is lvalue.
So, the solution is to add wrapper function that looks at results of `instruction` function and
expected expression type. Then if it's lvalue, wrap the type in reference.
Do this wrapping magic only when we know that lvalue mean reference type.
The rest of the changes is to make frontend tests pass - since we use different fields
in the AST, some of them were incorrectly set before and no one noticed.
