Plumb through the standard context.Context so that a function can be
cancelled if someone requests this. It makes it less awkward to write
simple functions that might depend on io or network access.
This adds a unification optimizations API, and uses it to optimize the
embedded provisioner. With these turned on, type unification drops from
around 1m45s to 2.5s which is a 40x speedup.
This commit adds the ability to build a standalone provisioning tool.
This is the first useful public mcl code base as well. It is not
perfect, but does serve as a rough starting point to show what is
possible. In the future as the language and the engine evolve, this will
likely get more elegant, and also grow new features.
To build this, run `make clean && GOTAGS='embedded_provisioner' make`.
To run this, run `mgmt provisioner`.
