This is a bit.. ugly, or at least seems suboptimal, but I can't think of
a better way to do it currently aside from demanding a uniform
representation, which we probably don't want to do.
Another option is something like the defunctionalization we perform
today, except also capturing potential uses of nested functions in the
closure tag of an encompassing lambda. So for example,
```
f = \x -> \y -> 1
```
would now record a lambdaset with the data `[Test.f
[TypeOfInnerClos1]]`, where `TypeOfInnerClos1` is e.g.
`[Test.f.innerClos1 I8, Test.f.innerClos1 I16]`, symbolizing that the
inner closure may be specialized to take an I8 or I16. Then at the time
that we create the capture set for `f`, we create a tag noting what
specialization should be used for the inner closure, and apply the
current defunctionalization algorithm. So effectively, the type of the
inner closure becomes a capture.
I'm not sure if this is any better, or if it has more problems.
@folkertdev any thoughts?

These changes reflect the builtins as they're currently implemented, but I wish that instead they worked as (previously) described. Should this PR be abandoned in favor of an actual argument swap?
This code has a shadowing error:
```
b = False
f = \b -> b
f b
```
but prior to this commit, the compiler would hit an internal error
during monomorphization and not even get to report the error. The reason
was that when we entered the closure `\b -> b`, we would try to
introduce the identifier `b` to the scope, see that it shadows an
existing identifier, and not insert the identifier. But this meant that
when checking the body of `\b -> b`, we would think that we captured the
value `b` in the outer scope, but that's incorrect!
The present patch fixes the issue by generating new symbols for
shadowing identifiers, so deeper scopes pick up the correct reference.
This also means in the future we may be able to compile and execute code
with shadows, even though it will still be an error.
Closes#2343
