// trans.rs: Translate the completed AST to the LLVM IR.
//
// Some functions here, such as trans_block and trans_expr, return a value --
// the result of the translation to LLVM -- while others, such as trans_fn,
// trans_obj, and trans_item, are called only for the side effect of adding a
// particular definition to the LLVM IR output we're producing.
//
// Hopefully useful general knowledge about trans:
//
//   * There's no way to find out the ty::t type of a ValueRef.  Doing so
//     would be "trying to get the eggs out of an omelette" (credit:
//     pcwalton).  You can, instead, find out its TypeRef by calling val_ty,
//     but many TypeRefs correspond to one ty::t; for instance, tup(int, int,
//     int) and rec(x=int, y=int, z=int) will have the same TypeRef.
