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".

It was not a good idea to use heterogeneous equality as the default equality in Lean.
It creates the following problems.
- Heterogeneous equality does not propagate constraints in the elaborator.
For example, suppose that l has type (List Int), then the expression
l = nil
will not propagate the type (List Int) to nil.
- It is easy to write false. For example, suppose x has type Real, and the user
writes x = 0. This is equivalent to false, since 0 has type Nat. The elaborator cannot introduce
the coercion since x = 0 is a type correct expression.
Homogeneous equality does not suffer from the problems above.
We keep heterogeneous equality because it is useful for generating proof terms.

- Use hierarchical names instead of unsigned integers to identify metavariables.
- Associate type with metavariable.
- Replace metavar_env with substitution.
- Rename meta_ctx --> local_ctx
- Rename meta_entry --> local_entry
- Disable old elaborator
- Rename unification_problems to unification_constraints
- Add metavar_generator
- Fix metavar unit tests
- Modify type checker to use metavar_generator
- Fix placeholder module

Fix (relevant) warnings produced by http://cppcheck.sourceforge.net.
Most warnings produced were incorrect. The tool does not seem to support some of the C++11 new features.
