  Log Message:

  distinguish FINAL phase from CHECK phase

CHECK phase is always after the parsing of the current compilation
unit.  FINAL phase is after the main application's CHECK phase,
when the application as a whole commits to optimization policies.
In other words, a FINAL block defined in a module is not run when the
module is compiled (that would be a CHECK instead), but rather when the
application using the module is completing its compilation and linking.

  more set/bag list clarifications

We're not trying to override explicit < at > or .keys here, merely the
implicit policy for a default of item in list context.

Also, set/bag constructors are simply slurpies, and shouldn't care at all
what was passed as the objects in those slurpies.  Generally one should
be using "union" to combine sets or bags anyway, not relying on implicit
constructor semantics to do that.

  distinguish structural unaries by 'is nodal' trait

People naturally expect structural unaries like subscripts to be flat
but non-structural unaries to recurse when hypered.  The best place to
hang this info is on the top-level function/method/proto that will be
passed to the hyper controller as object representing the operation
in question.  Subscripts and methods like .values are considered
"nodal".  For static functions on static shapes of known type, this
enables compile-time knowledge of what can be sent to the GPU.

Fixes #42
