Summary:
Global constants have reliable types, and their sizes can be used
instead of storing the size of the initializer separately.

Summary:
Distinguish expressions that name globals from registers. This leads
to clearer code, and globals are semantically distinct from general
registers. In particular, they are constant, so any machinery for
handling assignment does not need to consider them. This diff only
adds the distinction to LLAIR, it is not pushed through to FOL, which
will come later.

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.

Summary:
It happens so seldomly that it is not worth it to optimistically
assume that linking will make opaque types sized. In particular, it is
incongruent for `Typ.is_sized` to hold and then `Typ.size_of` to
raise.

Summary:
This information is needed to mediate between index-based
operations (such as on records) and offset-based operations (such as
load/store). Since it is fragile to recompute, the approach here is to
query llvm during translation and store the result.

If these failures are observed in real code of interest, they will

Summary:
While vector types can be translated, vector operations are not
currently handled. Translating type can lead to later failures (such
as bogus Convert expressions) that are not clearly identifiable as
originating from vector types. So fail eagerly when a vector type is
seen. Note that the only vectors that the frontend sees are due to
incompleteness of the LLVM vectorizer pass.

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.

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.
