This is an important optimization for module.cpp. The benchmark tests/lua/slow/mod2.lua is a good example where the cost of is_descendant was neutralizing the benefit of the replace method.

A particular macro definition may use the extra information to retrieve information necessary to expand/type a given macro application. Example: it may need to invoke whnf.

The method is_proposition was using an optimization that became incorrect after we identified Pi and forall.
It was assuming that any Pi expression is not a proposition.
This is not true anymore. Now, (Pi x : A, B) is a proposition if B is a proposition.

There is a lot to be done. We should do the same for Nat, Int and Real.
We also should cleanup the file builtin.cpp and builtin.h.

"Pre-compiled" .olean files were already type checked. The flag -t instructs to Lean to skip
type checking when importing these files.
TODO: add a check-sum.

After this commit, in the type checker, when checking convertability, we first compute a normal form without expanding opaque terms.
If the terms are convertible, then we are done, and saved a lot of time by not expanding unnecessary definitions.
If they are not, instead of throwing an error, we try again expanding the opaque terms.
This seems to be the best of both worlds.
The opaque flag is a hint for the type checker, but it would never prevent us from type checking a valid term.

The environment object is a "smart-pointer".
Before this commit, the use of "const &" for environment objects was broken.
For example, suppose we have a function f that should not modify the input environment.
Before this commit, its signature would be
void f(environment const & env)
This is broken, f's implementation can easilty convert it to a read-write pointer by using
the copy constructor.
environment rw_env(env);
Now, f can use rw_env to update env.
To fix this issue, we now have ro_environment. It is a shared *const* pointer.
We can convert an environment into a ro_environment, but not the other way around.
ro_environment can also be seen as a form of documentation.
For example, now it is clear that type_inferer is not updating the environment, since its constructor takes a ro_environment.

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))
...
