//! The type system. We currently use this to infer types for completion.
//!
//! For type inference, compare the implementations in rustc (the various
//! check_* methods in librustc_typeck/check/mod.rs are a good entry point) and
//! IntelliJ-Rust (org.rust.lang.core.types.infer). Our entry point for
//! inference here is the `infer` function, which infers the types of all
//! expressions in a given function.
//!
//! The central struct here is `Ty`, which represents a type. During inference,
//! it can contain type 'variables' which represent currently unknown types; as
//! we walk through the expressions, we might determine that certain variables
//! need to be equal to each other, or to certain types. To record this, we use
//! the union-find implementation from the `ena` crate, which is extracted from
//! rustc.
