In line with the proposal in #4682, this changes the array syntax to be
array(T, N). `array` is a builtin keyword which must be followed by
parens containing two expressions and a separating comma.
The array type expression is still fully builtin, it does not forward to
a Core.Array library type yet. It merely adds the `ArrayType`
instruction, as was done with the previous syntax.
Followup work will change the instruction to reference to Core.Array,
once the library type exists and can be used directly.

A collection of additional Carbon examples demonstrating current
language capabilities and some limitations of the current state of the

In order to support these examples, this adds two new builtins to the
toolchain: `print.char` and `read.char`, which map to the libc functions
`putchar` and `getchar`.
Instead of treating `Core.Int` as the toolchain's builtin `IntType`,
model it as a class that adapts the builtin type. This aligns us better
with the intended language model, gives an associated library for
`impl`s involving `Core.Int` to live within, and opens the door adding
member functions to `Core.Int` if we decide that is desirable.
Remarkably it also seems to make the formatted SemIR a little smaller,
because a call to a generic class generates less IR than a call to a
function.
When an `IntLiteral` appears as an operand of an `if` expression,
convert it to `i32` for now, so that we don't reject things like `if
cond then 1 else 2` due to having a non-constant value of type
`IntLiteral`.
For tuple indexing expressions such as `(a, b).0`, convert the index to
type `IntLiteral`, not to type `i32`. This isn't strictly necessary to
do in this PR, but avoids the need to provide an `IntLiteral` -> `i32`
implicit conversion for `no_prelude` tests using this syntax.
We'd been discussing that explorer remains necessary for print, and I
was wondering if this kind of approach would be okay (we _probably_ want
this to work, based on #2110, albeit with more overloads -- but I don't
think there's a good way to support overloads at the moment).

Note, I assume this doesn't affect all the TODOs (like for i32.carbon),
but does cut some things down (and requires updating some tests that
have prelude name conflicts, but I think they were intended to be
updated this way).
The driver now looks for all files under core/prelude/ and considers
them all to be part of the prelude. The driver also now only processes
the prelude in `--phase=check` and later, when it would actually be
imported.
With that done, add a simple `carbon_binary` build rule and use it to
build the example in `//examples`. This should cause the example to be
built as part of our continuous integration.

Move completeness check to the point where the function is defined or
first called. This means we also defer deciding whether the function has
a return slot until that point. Instead of storing a return slot per
function, store the location of the return storage, which may or may not
be used, and compute and store a separate flag saying whether to use it
at the point of first use or definition.
This is the final piece in supporting simple `Make` functions in classes
as a replacement for constructors.
Split apart the interfaces into separate libraries by theme. We don't
yet have a way to re-export them, so for now change importers to use the
fine-grained names.
This is almost certainly not how we'll want these to be organized, and
if the examples/ directory is kept it should have BUILD files. But this
at least lets me park these files somewhere that's more global than my
own checkout.
