Amend per-function-bindings to per-usage-bindings 
It was pointed out in an external channel that this alternative was unnecessarily restrictive. The original intent was to allow flexibility for each usage of `T`.

* library names to luacase

* table runtime representation still depends on VM

* addressing comment: boolean is equivalent to true | false

* getname() should return string not table

* Added a section about type function type checking as one of future works

* type functions can call other type functions but not regular functions

* user configurable timeout added

* Type functions can not refer to outer scopes

* lType -> typelib

* print to warn; error/return nothing to fail reduction

* removed getname() as there aren't real usecases

* fix typos in method names

* Starlark approach without execution limit

* big revision on library methods, reason for using userdata, illegal constructs in type functions; need to add support for generic types and list of supported libraries/globals

* colon to invoke methods

* comment: ~ to not

* Added indexer methods for Class types

* using colons instead of periods to invoke method calls

* added globals/libraries to a list of illegal constructs

* revising typelib library and method descriptions

* renaming methods, overloading __eq __le __newindex, metatable as representation of tables

* small fix to reflect table method name change to class method names

* make nil, unknown, never, any an instance attribute of typelib; merge getindextype/getindexresulttype into one function

* Removed overloading metamethods for now

* added tbl:getprop(key) to obtain a single value

* addprop(key, ty.nil) != delprop(key)

* merge addprop() and delprop() into one
