This PR replaces
unique_ptrusage in the AST witharena_ptr, a like-behaved alternative backed by an arena.This solves difficulties with the unique ownership model, for example allowing an expression to be used in two places without requiring deep copies, or having to risk lifetime issues with weak references.
The main entry point was modified so that the arena owns every node, including the top-level
ModDecl. Additionally, theTypeTablewas lifted out as well, fixing crashes when printing the AST after a failed implicit substitution.
