Sorry about the big change, this is hard to split. ParenContents is used by both, templated, and expects the same pointer type. While I could duplicate ParenContents with some ExpressionParenContents or PatternParenContents, that seems a little kludgy versus a single large change handling both. The worst of it is that Expression is already pretty sweeping, Pattern is really just incrementally adding.
That said, I believe this includes a couple fixes I found with incorrect use of dyn_cast in typecheck.cpp (checked nullptr at the wrong step in 2 code locations). There's also a missing `*` in member.cpp this caught. I adjust passing of expressions for Return due to nullness (I felt adding another constructor was the best solution).
I add a `.Release()` to BisonWrap due to things like `$3.first` needing some way to work through BIsonWrap. I felt this was better than `operator->`, but feel free to comment if you prefer the other path (`.Release()` conveniently lets me do pair unwrapping, so it felt a better solution).
I do add a TODO to think about better Ptr-to-Ptr cast<> support too, though, as that doesn't work cleanly with LLVM's infra. But so far it seems to only come up in one spot, so I'm not prioritizing it.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
This ensures that the factory functions correspond 1:1 with expression kinds, and MakeOp covers their use cases with minimal syntactic overhead now that it can take initializer list arguments.
