Three parser changes:
1. at-app-start? returns true on op '~' or '?' so the app loop
keeps consuming labeled args.
2. The app arg parser handles:
~name:VAL drop label, parse VAL as the arg
?name:VAL same
~name punning -- treat as (:var name)
?name same
3. try-consume-param! drops '~' or '?' and treats the following
ident as a regular positional param name.
Caveats:
- Order in the call must match definition order; we don't reorder
by label name.
- Optional args don't auto-wrap in Some, so the function body sees
the raw value for ?x:V.
Lets us write idiomatic-looking OCaml even though the runtime is
positional underneath:
let f ~x ~y = x + y in f ~x:3 ~y:7 = 10
let x = 4 in let y = 5 in f ~x ~y = 20 (punning)
let f ?x ~y = x + y in f ?x:1 ~y:2 = 3
