Trying to switch gears a bit and scope out how much is left. Code-generation
should be a lot less work since few signatures need to change. Hopefully
getting to 55% down mu.subx will really be 90% of the way. In particular,
there are 17 signature changes remaining that need to patch their calling
functions as well.

I'm just cleaning up the final call to append-list, and it's internally
consistent if `block` can be an `addr`. I don't know yet if that makes
sense for callers.
I think I also found a bug in append-to-block: it was clobbering eax.

populate-function-header _almost_ done. I think we just need to fix `push`
next.

This is all very superficial. I'm not going to be able to run tests for
a long time.

Update offset declarations in function data structures for starters. We
still need to go over the entire file to actually use them.

So far it's unclear how to do this in a series of small commits. Still
nibbling around the edges. In this commit we standardize some terminology:
The length of an array or stream is denominated in the high-level elements.
The _size_ is denominated in bytes.
The thing we encode into the type is always the size, not the length.
There's still an open question of what to do about the Mu `length` operator.
I'd like to modify it to provide the length. Currently it provides the
size. If I can't fix that I'll rename it.

At the lowest level, SubX without syntax sugar uses names without prepositions.
For example, 01 and 03 are both called 'add', irrespective of source and
destination operand. Horizontal space is at a premium, and we rely on the
comments at the end of each line to fully describe what is happening.
Above that, however, we standardize on a slightly different naming convention
across:
a) SubX with syntax sugar,
b) Mu, and
c) the SubX code that the Mu compiler emits.
Conventions, in brief:
- by default, the source is on the left and destination on the right.
e.g. add %eax, 1/r32/ecx ("add eax to ecx")
- prepositions reverse the direction.
e.g. add-to %eax, 1/r32/ecx ("add ecx to eax")
subtract-from %eax, 1/r32/ecx ("subtract ecx from eax")
- by default, comparisons are left to right while 'compare<-' reverses.
Before, I was sometimes swapping args to make the operation more obvious,
but that would complicate the code-generation of the Mu compiler, and it's
nice to be able to read the output of the compiler just like hand-written
code.
One place where SubX differs from Mu: copy opcodes are called '<-' and
'->'. Hopefully that fits with the spirit of Mu rather than the letter
of the 'copy' and 'copy-to' instructions.

I had to amend commit 6148 three times yesterday as I kept finding bugs
by inspection. And yet I stubbornly thought I didn't need a test.

This is quite inefficient; don't use it for very large objects.

This could be a can of worms, but I think I have a set of checks that will
keep use of addresses type-safe.

Using these is quite unsafe. But what isn't, here?
