Apart from the representational changes below, this patch renames
AstNodeMath to AstNodeExpr, and AstCMath to AstCExpr.
Now every expression (i.e.: those AstNodes that represent a [possibly
void] value, with value being interpreted in a very general sense) has
AstNodeExpr as a super class. This necessitates the introduction of an
AstStmtExpr, which represents an expression in statement position, e.g :
'foo();' would be represented as AstStmtExpr(AstCCall(foo)). In exchange
we can get rid of isStatement() in AstNodeStmt, which now really always
represent a statement
Peak memory consumption and verilation speed are not measurably changed.
Partial step towards #3420
In non-static contexts like class objects or stack frames, the use of
global trigger evaluation is not feasible. The concept of dynamic
triggers allows for trigger evaluation in such cases. These triggers are
simply local variables, and coroutines are themselves responsible for
evaluating them. They await the global dynamic trigger scheduler object,
which is responsible for resuming them during the trigger evaluation
step in the 'act' eval region. Once the trigger is set, they await the
dynamic trigger scheduler once again, and then get resumed during the
resumption step in the 'act' eval region.

Use the same style, and reuse the bulk of astgen to generate DfgVertex
related code. In particular allow for easier definition of custom
DfgVertex sub-types that do not directly correspond to an AstNode
sub-type. Also introduces specific names for the fixed arity vertices.
No functional change intended.
This is only a debugging aid at this point, so compile out of the
release build. This reduces peak memory consumption by 4-5%. We still
keep the global counters to detect the tree have changed, to avoid
unnecessary dumps.
Use astgen to generate a more thorough version of AstNode::checkTree,
which checks that operands are or consistent structure and type, as
described in the @astgen op directives. Also change checkTree to always
run when --debug-check is given.
Fix discovered fallout.
