Summary:
LLVM and Llair use a form of records, in particular for values of
constant structs and arrays. In Llair, these use standard `select` and
`update` operations a la McCarthy's theory of functional arrays, with
a compact `record` operation for constructing complete records. This
is fine and logically well-understood. The issue is that once
constructed, these values are accessed using instructions that (may)
operate over byte-ranges, rather than struct member indices. The
backend uses a theory of sequences to represent such values (the
contents of memory). So some code depends on high fidelity
interoperation between these two views.
This diff resolves this by removing the record theory from the backend
and instead encoding them using the sequence theory. The approach
taken keeps records in Llair and translates them to sequences in
Llair_to_Fol. This choice is made since the encoding into the sequence
theory involves terms that do not have types that are expressible in
terms of the source types. In particular, `(update r i e)`, is encoded
as the concatenation of the prefix of `r` up to the offset of index
`i`, followed by `e` (possibly with padding), and then the suffix of
`r` from index `i+1` on. The prefix and suffix sequences do not
necessarily have source-expressible types.

Summary:
The support for recursive references to globals from within their
initializers is enough to handle all the cases of recursive structs
that have been encountered so far. Therefore this diff removes the
complication of recursive records entirely.

Since floats of any width are interpreted the same (as exact rationals

Summary:
Change the type of `fold` functions to enable them to compose
better. The guiding reasoning behind using types such as:
```
val fold : 'a t -> 's -> f:('a -> 's -> 's) -> 's
```
is:
1. The function argument should be labeled. This is so that it can be
reordered relative to the others, since it is often a multi-line
`fun` expression.
2. The function argument should come last. This enables its
arguments (which are often polymorphic) to benefit from type-based
disambiguation information determined by the types of the other
arguments at the call sites.
3. The function argument's type should produce an
accumulator-transformer when partially-applied. That is,
`f x : 's -> 's`. This composes well with other functions designed
to produce transformers/endofunctions when partially applied, and
in particular improves the common case of composing folds into
"state-passing style" code.
4. The fold function itself should produce an accumulator-transformer
when partially applied. So `'a t -> 's -> f:_ -> 's` rather than
`'s -> 'a t -> f:_ -> 's` or `'a t -> init:'s -> f:_ -> 's` etc.

The changes in set_intf.ml dictate the rest. The previous API
minimized changes when changing the backing implementation. But that

Summary:
The treatment of comparison and exceptions in Core/Core_kernel/Base
makes them questionable as the default. This diff changes nonstdlib so
that Core is no longer opened in the global namespace, and makes a few
changes to handle the resulting minor API changes. This leads to a
lighter-touch nonstdlib, which makes a few definitions of its own, and
selects and extends modules from several libraries, including base,
core_kernel, containers, iter.

Summary:
Change the representation of Fol terms to use polynomials for
arithmetic. This is a generalization and simplification of those used
in Ses. In particular, the treatment of division is stronger as it
captures associativity, commutativity, and unit laws, plus being the
inverse of multiplication.
Also, the interface is staged and factored so that the implementation
of polynomials and arithmetic is separate from the rest of terms.

The translation from Llair to Fol can now be implemented using only
