The m4/flex/bison commits are in, unreleased, but we can still go back to the canonical repo. Also updates the python version.
This pulls out the version statement mainly because it's typically repeated, not due to the m4/flex/bison verbosity. Pulling it out makes it more obvious and easier to change.
Per https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_cc this still isn't necessary. There's no build-time enforcement, so usage is inconsistent/incorrect. Rather than letting this linger, remove it pending Bazel tooling enforcing it.
Add support for nominal (or "named") classes with encapsulation. Inheritance will be in a later proposal. Here is an example of the proposed syntax:
```
class Circle {
fn Create(c: Point, r: f32) -> Self {
return {.center = c, .radius = r};
}
fn Diameter[me: Self]() -> f32 {
return me.radius * 2;
}
fn Expand[addr me: Self*](distance: f32);
private var center: Point;
private var radius: f32;
}
fn Circle.Expand[addr me: Self*](distance: f32) {
me->radius += distance;
}
```

This enables the interpreter logic to express its intent more directly, especially in the common cases, and enables us to get rid of ValAction. It's also a step toward simplifying and encapsulating `state->stack`.
This also eliminates the ctad wrapper for Stack: I think the leaning is to remove it. It felt worth keeping the constructor because constructing with a single element is a common use-case.
Adds a single-argument constructor for Scope because the `std::list<std::string>()` is common, and eliding it is consistent with what we've done for things like tuples.
I was considering a vector constructor due to the double-Push on line 1139, but thought the Push() semantics may mean that it's better not to provide.
I think Stack used to use ListNode, but you'd previously removed that dependency. This finalizes the split, and merges ListNode so that we don't accidentally accrue more dependencies. In part I think we'll eventually want to change how Dictionary is set up.
This opens up a path for switching `int line_num` to a `Location loc`, which I want to do for tracking filenames of code. But I don't think we should have a default constructor on `Location` to avoid mistakes, and switching FunctionDefinition to an arena alloc seems more consistent anyways.
Moving "Global variables" out of "Alternatives"; I don't think it's really been considered in the same way that others have, so there's no reference to provide.
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 proposal defines the very basics of `class` types, primarily focused on:
- use cases including: data classes, encapsulated types, inheritance with and without `virtual`, interfaces as base classes, and mixins for code reuse;
- anonymous data types for called _structural data classes_ or _struct types_. Struct literals are used to initialize class values and ad-hoc parameter and return types with named components; and
- future work, including the provisional syntax already in use for features that have not been decided.
The intent is to both make some small incremental progress and get agreement on direction. As such it doesn't include things like nominal types, methods, access control, inheritance, etc.
It proposes this struct type and literal syntax:
```
var p: {.x: Int, .y: Int} = {.x = 0, .y = 1};
```
Note that it uses commas (`,`) between fields instead of semicolons (`;`), and no introducer for types or literal values.
Incorporates decisions from #665 , #653 , #651

- `PATH` is a caching issue, as commented.
- `exec.map` is a correctness issue, the reference to `test` was incorrect on threading so it wasn't updating all tests.

I think the MS C++ extension is what was causing vscode to hang for me. I've been trying clangd and it seems to work better.
yash is syntax highlighting for ypp/lpp. The builtin markdown support's gotten better, so I'm removing the non-standard recommendation.
This implements decision #565 to use `T:! Type` to declare generic parameters, and `template T:! Type` for template parameters.

Establish a principle that understanding the meaning and performance should not depend on expensive context, and explain what makes context expensive.
