Lean.Compiler.IR.Boxing

Add explicit boxing and unboxing instructions. Recall that the Lean to λ_pure compiler produces code without these instructions.

      Infer scrutinee type using case alternatives. This can be done whenever alts does not contain an Alt.default _ value.

            We create auxiliary declarations when boxing constant and literals. The idea is to avoid code such as

            let x1 := Uint64.inhabited;
            let x2 := box x1;
            ...
            

            We currently do not cache these declarations in an environment extension, but we use auxDeclCache to avoid creating equivalent auxiliary declarations more than once when processing the same IR declaration.

                Auxiliary function used by castVarIfNeeded. It is used when the expected type does not match xType. If xType is scalar, then we need to "box" it. Otherwise, we need to "unbox" it.
