Compiler Libraries

[cristianoc]

Plan the future for compiler libraries.

The most likely scenario, as things stand today is:

• Core will be adopted and become part of the compiler
• Belt needs looking at next. One possibility is to create a data structure library with the same principles used for Core: take existing functionality, delete what not used, aim for compatibility, give uniform API. E.g. Promoting rescript-vector to a primitive data structure #6181 could fit right in here.
• Backwards compatibility will be preserved and an easy upgrade path will be offered.

I think lazy sequences should be included, as they are in most standard libraries.

Core was moved into the compiler repo as the new stdlib for v12.
