The introduced "constants" transformation can evaluate constant expressions. The
original use-sites of constant expressions are replaced by a new [ConstantExpression]
node, which points to a subclass of a new [Constant] class hierarchy. Constant
[Field]s and [VariableDeclarations]s will be removed, since all use-sites are
re-written.
The [Constant] class hierarchy is, similarly to the [DartType] class hierarchy, not
part of the AST tree (also has no parent pointer). The constants form a
DAG (directed acyclic graph).
There is no canonicalization requirement of the [Constant] objects referenced by the
AST (via [ConstantExpression]). Although it is beneficial to canonicalize them during
construction, since it reduces time spent in operator==/hashCode.
This CL furthermore adds support for a constant table in the binary format. Similarly
to [String]s, we canonicalize the constants before writing the table to the binary.
The constant table entries in the binary are written in a post-order way, to ensure
easy construction on the backend side.
The text format will be augmented with a "constants { ... }" section at the end,
which lists the constants in the same order as in the binary format.
The transformation can be used by those backends who choose to do so. It is not
enabled by default atm. It should therefore not affect analyzer, fasta or other
components.

This adds a class CanonicalName that can represent a library, class,
or member. All references now go through a Reference object, which is
linked to both the AST node and its CanonicalName, so either can be
created first.
dartk now accepts multiple input files:
- If multiple dart files are given, they are all compiled.
- If multiple binaries are given, they are linked together.
Mixed dart and binary input is not supported by dartk.
dartk now has a flag --include-sdk which includes the entire SDK in
the output. This is so the SDK can be compiled alone and then linked.
Example of compiling separately and then linking:
dartk foo.dart -o foo.dill
dartk main.dart -o main.dill
dartk --include-sdk -o sdk.dill
dartk main.dill foo.dill sdk.dill --target=vm --link -o program.dill
dartk still has incredibly slow cold start due to the analyzer loading
the dart sdk, so this does not actually speed things up at the moment.

We now check that classes and type parameters are not redeclared.
The verify_test also verifies that its test harness has no errors,
as this would make all the other tests useless.

This replaces the old --sanity-check flag from dartk. Some files have
been renamed to avoid the wording "sanity check".
Compared to --sanity-check, the following checks have been added:
- variables are not referenced out of scope
- variables are not redeclared
- class type parameters are not referenced from static context
A unit test has been added to check that the verifier rejects certain
invalid ASTs.
