Subject: Language experiments (#2068)

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

* Moved to experiments.
Added some more tests.

* More tests around associated types.

* Return interface tests.

* More tests.

+.slang(43): error 30027: 'getValue' is not a member of 'Type'.

+
+From an error message point of view this perhaps somewhat confusing because there aren't any methods on Type in this context. 
+
+It would be possible for an implementation to determine intf is impl, and do the right thing, although not in general.
