It was in my mind to add String in order to support libraries in `package`. `print` is added in order to have a String go to stdout. I've tried to do `print` in a way that won't be too hard to add other printable types, but it's probably also somewhat optional here -- that is, if desired, I could remove it. But it was a lot easier to doublecheck `\n` behavior with it, and I suspect it'll be helpful in other tests if it supports more value types.
On the side, this also fixes dereferencing in Pattern/Expression Print() calls, which I was noticing printing pointers instead of values. This may be another argument for moving away from passing pointers, since this seems to be a difficult-to-catch error.

This creates a ReturnExpression. A separate change should enforce that an implicit return of `()` is only allowed in functions that have an implicit return type of `()`, and I think the structure taken here should ease that.
`Pattern` is intended to pilot some changes I would like to apply to all our sum types:
- The alternatives are expressed as derived classes rather than members of a `std::variant`.
- The alternatives are classes in the [style guide sense](https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Structs_vs._Classes), meaning they can have invariants, but can't have public data members.
- Creating an object is expressed using a constructor rather than a factory function.
- Accessing an alternative is expressed as a cast (using LLVM's RTTI system) rather than `std::get` or a `Get` method.

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.

I was looking for something like this, I think it's a straightforward simplification for code. Internally, it handles skipping the separator on the first print.
See the bottom of: https://llvm.org/doxygen/StringExtras_8h_source.html
- Switch code to llvm::raw_ostream as part of standardizing output forms.
- Preferring llvm::raw_ostream over std::ostream because other tooling code should be expected to rely on llvm more closely, and an overall preference towards library consistency.
- There are a couple spots in syntax/ that still use std streams, but I'd prefer to take a separate PR to see how best to address those.
- std::boolalpha doesn't work with llvm, so I've implemented equivalent in a couple places (not enough that it felt like worth making a helper function).
- Implement Print(ostream) as consistently as we can, as an instance member.
- This facilitates the use of the common/ostream.h template to provide operators.
- Preferring this approach so that Print is easily accessible via gdb, per suggestion on #executable-semantics.
- Switch code currently calling `type->Print(ostream)` to instead do `ostream << *type`.
- Remove the unused `PrintTypeEnv`, nothing used it and the declaration didn't match the definition.
- Move Heap and Frame/Scope to their own headers.
- Move some functions to more appropriate headers (e.g. CopyValue -> value.h).
- Define a separate Bazel rule for each header/cpp pair.
- Modify PrintValue to not print the frames of a ContinuationValue. This was necessary to break a dependency cycle between PrintValue, PrintFrame, and Action::Print.

Note this makes some structural choices that I'm not sure how popular they'll be... Most notably, I could remove `DeclarationKind` because I'm using `std::visit` and `Declaration::Visitor` in reality. I could go to `switch(tag())` instead, but I'm wondering if this approach will be well received for the separation of ownership. Alternatively, I could move `Declaration` around so that it actually implements the things like `TopLevel` -- I did feel weird with the old structure of typecheck.cpp implementing members of declaration.h, though.
We will eventually need the ability to materialize temporaries eventually, but we don't really seem to need it yet, and when we do, I think we should do it in a way that gives uniform treatment to temporaries and local variables.
Also:
- Switch data members, and associated parameters and return types to be values/references rather than pointers, where applicable.
- Move Expression's TagVisitor to anonymous namespace, to avoid name collision.
- Switch to trailing return syntax (per style guide).
Pretty much any names will be awkward, since these types represent cases where an `Expression` is not an expression, and a `Value` is not a value, but we can at least be more explicit about the fact that they represent bindings rather than variable usages.
- `Kind` enumerator names always match the corresponding factory function, accessor, and type names (if any).
- All abbreviations in those names are expanded.
- Those names always have a suffix to disambiguate expressions from values.
`VarTV` is excluded from these changes because there's a pending PR to remove it.

The presence or absence of whitespace is used to determine which
operator is in use, following the rules described in #520.
Support for prefix * dereference operator follows #523.
