With this, only main.cpp instantiates an arena. Maybe we'll want to split that up more later (e.g., so that the runtime interpreter uses its own arena), but given the intent to have type-checking update the AST, I thought this was a reasonable approach for now in order to avoid ownership complexities.
Fixes#769
This is intended to:
- Standardize use of line_num (and highlight where no line_num is available).
- Standardize indications of runtime/compilation errors.
- Make it incrementally easier to write new errors.

- Give unary `-` and `not` the same precedence as in C++
- Add detail to parse error messages, and make the --trace flag also enable parser debug tracing
- Make any new shift-reduce conflicts into build errors
- Use `%precedence` rather than `%nonassoc` where possible, in order to catch more grammar bugs at build time
Slowly bringing this into line with Bison's C++ example parser
so we can use strong semantic values for symbols rather than
leaking pointers. First step is to thread a `ParseAndLexContext`
object through the whole syntactic analysis state, like the
example has. In the example, it's called `driver`.
