Standard library save/loadable (#1592)

* #include an absolute path didn't work - because paths were taken to always be relative.

* Fix handling of access modifiers inside type definition.

* Fix access problem for AST node.
Make dumping produce a single function with switch, to potentially make available without Dump specific access.

* WIP on serialization design doc.

* Remove project references to previously generated files.

* More docs on serialization design.

* Improve serialization documentation.
Remove unused function from IRSerialReader.

* Small fixes around naming. Remove long comment from slang-serialize.h - as covered in serialization.md

* Remove long comment in slang-serialize.h as covered in serialization.md

* More information about doing replacements on read for AST and problems surrounding.

* Typo fix.

* Spelling fixes.

* Value serialize.

* Value types with inheritence.

* Use value reflection serial conversion for more AST types

* Use automatic serialization on more of AST.

* Get the types via decltype, simplifies what the extractor has to do.

* Update the serialization.md for the value serialization.

* Small doc improvements.

* Update project.

* Remove ImportExternalDecl type
Added addImportSymbol and ImportSymbol type
Fixed bug in container which meant it wouldn't read back AST module

* Because of change of how imports and handled, store objects as SerialPointers.

* First pass symbol lookup from mangled names.

* Cache current module looked up from mangled name.

* Fix SourceLoc bug.
Improve comments.

* Added diagnostic on mangled symbol not being found

* Fix typo.

* WIP serializing stdlib.

* WIP serializing stdlib in.

* Fix problem serializing arrays that hold data that is already serialized.

* Remove clash of names in MagicTypeModifier.

* Make conversion from char to String explicit.
Fix reference count issue with SerialReader.

* Add code to save/load stdlib.

* Use return code to avoid warning -                 SerialContainerUtil::write(module, options, &stream))

* Make all String numeric ctors explicit.
Added isChar to UnownedStringSlice.
Added operator== for UnownedStringSlice to String to avoid need to convert to String and allocate.

* Add error check to readAllText.

* tabs -> spaces on String.h

* tab -> spaces String.cpp

* Remove msg for StringBuilder, just build inplace for exceptions.

* Check SerialClasses - for name clashes.
Renamed Modifier::name as Modifier::keywordName

* Handling of extensions when deserializing AST - updating the moduleDecl->mapTypeToCandidateExtensions
