compiler/next: canInstantiate and getInstantiationType

This PR continues the effort of filling in canInstantiate and
getInstantiationType logic for the compiler/next prototype resolver.

In particular it:

  • in can-pass.h / can-pass.cpp:
    • moves isSubtype to include canPassSubtype since some subtype
      conversions also instantiate so we'd like to be able to track that
    • adds canInstantiateBuiltin and canInstantiate helpers to handle
      some of the cases
    • adds checks for subtype for class conversions
    • fixes param formals with unknown value as needing instantiation
    • adds logic in canPass to handle the variety of intents (e.g. out,
      inout) and to consider generic formals
  • in types/
    • adds instantiatedFrom to CompositeType and children
    • adds isSubtypeOf and instantatedFrom helpers in BasicClassType
    • adds instantiatedFromCompositeType and isInstantiationOf helpers to
      CompositeType
    • renames isAnyPtrType to isPtrType, isAnyNilablePtrType to
      isNilablePtrType to reduce confusions with typed named things like
      AnyType.
    • adds isUserRecordType
    • adds a few builtin types that were overlooked so far
  • in resolution-queries.h / resolution-queries.cpp:
    • renames typeForTypeDecl to initialTypeForTypeDecl to reflect that
      the final type might be a result of instantiation and to better
      match the initial / instantiated terminology for functions
    • resolves parent class types
    • adds an implementation of getInstantiationType
    • uses canPass result including instantiation to decide when to add a
      substitution for a formal
    • handle more cases in the resolveIntent implementation

Future work: Look into recursive type declarations & better factor the
repeated calls to the struct Resolver.
