This creates a bit of extra cost in adding parse nodes in that a TODO must be added to semantics, but I think the link is going to last this way long-term. In semantics, it reduces the boilerplate of the main for loop and makes it more obvious what's missing, leaving stub functions to be filled in.
This is just the declaration, without initialization. Partly breaking it out because I'm changing the placeholder builtin types.
Might also need to separate out storage of the var from the name bind.
LLVM's bazel build has changed a bit, so this updates the tree for that.
LLVM is also moving `llvm::Optional` to match the standard API, but it seemed simpler to just switch to `std::optional`.

This is a first pass at what semantic type checking might look like. Types propagate along nodes, we use an InvalidType object when there's an error, and once there's an InvalidType we stop doing so much type checking.
This adds some RealLiteral handling in order to get type mismatches. I'm cautious about creating some real value for SemanticsIR (since the tokenized buffer version is a bit constrained), so I'm not doing that yet. But I will probably need to in order to maintain SemanticsIR having hermetic copies of its data, without a parse tree dependency.
This starts adding builtins with TypeType and IntegerLiteralType. Note, structurally that's all they are, and not directly accessible in any way.
Adds a type field to SemanticsNode. Now, IntegerLiteralType can be identified as having type=TypeType, and IntegerLiteral as type=IntegerLiteralType. The current iteration doesn't do anything for type propagation, because I wanted to avoid making this too big.
This also switches the Identifier IR to instead BindName, with some side-effects. I'd been trying to think how to provide a name for TypeType, and switching around how things worked seemed like a better approach. And while I think it's the right direction (e.g., alias should just be a BindName), I also realized I don't need to name TypeType: there's probably a keyword to refer to the builtin, so it shouldn't use regular name lookup.
As a step towards builtins, provide more blocks. The intent is that any significant scope change will become its own NodeBlock. Builtins should produce the first set of node blocks.
Note, SemanticsIR as set up here isn't handling ordering of import processing -- I haven't thought that through much beyond that we probably want some lighter-weight processing of the parse tree to achieve it. But I think the essence of loading builtins first as their own IR block is... probably right?
I'm thinking about how to handle multiple files, and I think the current IRFactory is useful as a file-focused thing. So shifting/renaming accordingly. (doing this in its own PR to make the history a little cleaner for git's move detection)
