- Modified how sail type error messages are displayed. The
typechecker, rather than immediately outputing a string has a
datatype for error types, which are the pretty-printed using a
PPrint pretty-printer. Needs more work for all the error messages.
- Error messages now attempt to highlight the part of the file where
the error occurred, by printing the line the error is on and
highlighting where the error message is in red. Again, this needs to
be made more robust, especially when the error messages span
multiple lines.
Other things
- Improved new parser and lexer. Made the lexer & parser handling of
colons simpler and more intuitive.
- Added some more typechecking test cases

backed.
Ocaml doesn't support undefined values, so we need a way to remove
them from the specification in order to generate good ocaml
code. There are more subtle issues to - like if we initialize a
mutable variable with an undefined list, then the ocaml runtime has no
way of telling what it's length should be (as this information is
removed by the simple_types pass).
We therefore rewrite undefined literals with calls to functions that
create undefined types, e.g.
(bool) undefined becomes undefined_bool ()
(vector<'n,'m,dec,bit>) undefined becomes undefined_vector(sizeof 'n, sizeof 'm, undefined_bit ())
We therefore have to generate undefined_X functions for any user
defined datatype X. initial_check seems to be the logical place for
this. This is straightforward provided the user defined types are
not-recursive (and it shouldn't be too bad even if they are).

The reason you want this is to do something like (note new parser only):
*********
default Order dec
type bits 'n:Int = vector('n - 1, 'n, dec, bit)
val zeros : forall 'n. atom('n) -> bits('n)
val decode : bool -> unit
function decode b = {
let 'datasize: {|32, 64|} = if b then 32 else 64;
let imm: bits('datasize) = zeros(datasize);
()
}
*********
for the ASL decode functions, where the typechecker now knows that the
datasize variable and the length of imm are the same.

Added a copy of the current parser/lexer in parser2.mly and
lexer2.mll. They can be used with the -new_parser flag. Currently they
are just copies of the existing files.
