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 parenthese `|(- |a|)|`.
NYI: CLEANUP: Due to #3081, we need `postfix |` as the first operation, should be
`prefix |` first

create a String from this instance. Unless redefined, `a.as_string` will
create `"instance[T]"` where `T` is the dynamic type of `a`
create `"instance[T]"` where `T` is the dynamic type of `a`
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 hierachy of types. So for Type values, dynamic_type is redefined
to just return Type.type.

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.

Type Features

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.

used for IEEE semantics.
The total order is provided by the usual comparison of

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`.
