After this commit, a value of type 'expr' cannot be a reference to nullptr.
This commit also fixes several bugs due to the use of 'null' expressions.
TODO: do the same for kernel objects, sexprs, etc.

operator bool() may produce unwanted conversions.
For example, we had the following bug in the code base.
...
object const & obj = find_object(const_name(n));
if (obj && obj.is_builtin() && obj.get_name() == n)
...
obj.get_name() has type lean::name
n has type lean::expr
Both have 'operator bool()', then the compiler uses the operator to
convert them to Boolean, and then compare the result.
Of course, this is not our intention.
After this commit, the compiler correctly signs the error.
The correct code is
...
object const & obj = find_object(const_name(n));
if (obj && obj.is_builtin() && obj.get_name() == const_name(n))
...

The directory bindings/lua was getting too big and had too many dependencies.
Moreover, it was getting too painful to edit/maintain two different places.
Now, the bindings for module X are in the directory that defines X.
For example, the bindings for util/name.cpp are located at util/name.cpp.
The only exception is the kernel. We do not want to inflate the kernel
with Lua bindings. The bindings for the kernel classes are located
at bindings/kernel_bindings.

The new hash code has the property that given expr_cell * c1 and expr_cell * c2,
if c1 != c2 then there is a high propbability that c1->hash_alloc() != c2->hash_alloc().
The structural hash code hash() does not have this property because we may have
c1 != c2, but c1 and c2 are structurally equal.
The new hash code is only compatible with pointer equality.
By compatible we mean, if c1 == c2, then c1->hash_alloc() == c2->hash_alloc().
This property is obvious because hash_alloc() does not have side-effects.
The test tests/lua/big.lua exposes the problem fixed by this commit.

For example, this feature is useful when displaying the integer value 10 with coercions enabled. In this case, we want to display "nat_to_int 10" instead of "10".

The printer and formatter objects are not trusted code.
We moved them to the kernel to be able to provide them as an argument to the trace objects.
Another motivation is to eliminate the kernel_exception_formatter hack.
With the formatter in the kernel, we can implement the pretty printer for kernel exceptions as a virtual method.

The actual implementation of these two operators is outside of the
kernel. They are implemented in the file 'library/printer.cpp'.
We declare them in the kernel to prevent the following problem.
Suppose there is a file 'foo.cpp' that does not include
'library/printer.h', but contains
expr a;
...
std::cout << a << "\n";
...
The compiler does not generate an error message. It silently uses the
operator bool() to coerce the expression into a Boolean. This produces
counter-intuitive behavior, and may confuse developers.
