 * # Categorization
 *
 * The job of the categorization module is to analyze an expression to
 * determine what kind of memory is used in evaluating it (for example,
 * where dereferences occur and what kind of pointer is dereferenced;
 * whether the memory is mutable; etc)
 *
 * Categorization effectively transforms all of our expressions into
 * expressions of the following forms (the actual enum has many more
 * possibilities, naturally, but they are all variants of these base
 * forms):
 *
 *     E = rvalue    // some computed rvalue
 *       | x         // address of a local variable, arg, or upvar
 *       | *E        // deref of a ptr
 *       | E.comp    // access to an interior component
 *
 * Imagine a routine ToAddr(Expr) that evaluates an expression and returns an
 * address where the result is to be found.  If Expr is an lvalue, then this
 * is the address of the lvalue.  If Expr is an rvalue, this is the address of
 * some temporary spot in memory where the result is stored.
 *
 * Now, cat_expr() classies the expression Expr and the address A=ToAddr(Expr)
 * as follows:
 *
 * - cat: what kind of expression was this?  This is a subset of the
 *   full expression forms which only includes those that we care about
 *   for the purpose of the analysis.
 * - mutbl: mutability of the address A
 * - ty: the type of data found at the address A
 *
 * The resulting categorization tree differs somewhat from the expressions
 * themselves.  For example, auto-derefs are explicit.  Also, an index a[b] is
 * decomposed into two operations: a derefence to reach the array data and
 * then an index to jump forward to the relevant item.
