Value Constructors
absolute value using `|a|` built from a `prefix |` and `postfix |` as an operator
alias of `a.abs`
Due to the low precedence of `|`, this works also on expressions like `|a-b|`, even
with spaces `| a-b |`, `|a - b|`, `| a-b|` or `|a-b |`.
Nesting, however, does not work, e.g, `| - |a| |`, this requires parentheses `|(- |a|)|`.
NYI: CLEANUP: Due to #3081, we need `postfix |` as the first operation, should be
`prefix |` first

Functions
convert a float value to i32 dropping any fraction.
the value must be in the range of i32
the value must be in the range of i32
NaN is converted to 0
anything greater than i64.max as well as ∞ is i64.max
anything lower than i64.min as well as -∞ is i64.min
anything greater than i64.max as well as ∞ is i64.max
anything lower than i64.min as well as -∞ is i64.min
convert this to a string.

ceiling: the smallest integer greater or equal to this
Get the dynamic type of this instance. For value instances `x`, this is
equal to `type_of x`, but for `x` with a `ref` type `x.dynamic_type` gives
the actual runtime type, while `type_of x` results in the static
compile-time type.
There is no dynamic type of a type instance since this would result in an
endless hierarchy of types. So for Type values, dynamic_type is redefined
to just return Type.type.

the normalized mantissa
convenience prefix operator to create a string from a value.
This permits usage of `$` as a prefix operator in a similar way both
inside and outside of constant strings: $x and "$x" will produce the
same string.

preconditions for basic operations: true if the operation's result is
representable and defined for the given values
default implementations all return `true` such that children have to
redefine these only for partial operations such as those resulting in
an overflow or that are undefined like a division by zero for most
types.

equality
This provides an equivalence relation in the mathematical
sense and therefore breaks the IEEE semantics. infix = should
be used for IEEE semantics.
The equivalence relation is provided by the usual comparison
of floating-point numbers, with the definition of NaN = NaN.

special handling for floats:
although -0.0 and 0.0 are different in bit representation,
they are considered equal by both type.equality and IEEE
standard, hence they should have the same hash.
all NaNs are considered equal by type.equality (but not
the IEEE standard), so the hash of any NaN is the hash of
the "canonical" NaN.

infinity
Is this type assignable to a type parameter with constraint `T`?
The result of this is a compile-time constant that can be used to specialize
code for a particular type.
is_of_integer_type(n T : numeric) => T : integer
say (is_of_integer_type 1234) # true
say (is_of_integer_type 3.14) # false
it is most useful in conjunction preconditions or `if` statements as in
pair(a,b T) is

This provides a total order in the mathematical sense and
therefore breaks the IEEE semantics. infix <= should be
used for IEEE semantics.
The total order is provided by the usual comparison of
floating-point numbers, with the definition that NaN <= x,
for any x (including x = NaN).

Get a type as a value.
This is a feature with the effect equivalent to Fuzion's `expr.type` call tail.
It is recommended to use `expr.type` and not `expr.type_value`.
`type_value` is here to show how this can be implemented and to illustrate the
difference to `dynamic_type`.
