816589b667 NIR: Nim intermediate representation (#22777)
Theoretical Benefits / Plans: 

- Typed assembler-like language.
- Allows for a CPS transformation.
- Can replace the existing C backend by a new C backend.
- Can replace the VM.
- Can do more effective "not nil" checking and static array bounds
checking.
- Can be used instead of the DFA.
- Easily translatable to LLVM.
- Reasonably easy to produce native code from.
- Tiny memory consumption. No pointers, no cry.

**In very early stages of development.**

Todo:
- [x] Map Nim types to IR types.
- [ ] Map Nim AST to IR instructions:
  - [x] Map bitsets to bitops.
  - [ ] Implement string cases.
  - [ ] Implement range and index checks.
  - [x] Implement `default(T)` builtin.
  - [x] Implement multi string concat.
- [ ] Write some analysis passes.
- [ ] Write a backend.
- [x] Integrate into the compilation pipeline.

a8d55fdec7 deprecates newSeqUninitialized replaced by newSeqUninit (#22739)
ref #19727
closes #22586

https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/22554 needs it to move on.
`newSeqUnsafe` can be introduced later.
