Closes#2812
Unfortunately we don't have a great way to test this without scaffolding
a host since this happens while processing a variable exposed to the
host. In tests the root cause just yields a type error first and codegen
works, just bails during the runtime. But this works.
Note that is still pretty limited. We only permit opaque types to
implement abilities, abilities cannot have type arguments, and also no
other functions may depend on abilities
Closes#2535
See the referenced issue for longer discussion - here's the synopsis.
Consider this program
```
app "test" provides [ nums ] to "./platform"
alpha = { a: 1, b: 2 }
nums : List U8
nums =
[
alpha.a,
alpha.b,
]
```
Here's its IR:
```
procedure : `#UserApp.alpha` {I64, U8}
procedure = `#UserApp.alpha` ():
let `#UserApp.5` : Builtin(Int(I64)) = 1i64;
let `#UserApp.6` : Builtin(Int(U8)) = 2i64;
let `#UserApp.4` : Struct([Builtin(Int(I64)), Builtin(Int(U8))]) = Struct {`#UserApp.5`, `#UserApp.6`};
ret `#UserApp.4`;
procedure : `#UserApp.nums` List U8
procedure = `#UserApp.nums` ():
let `#UserApp.7` : Struct([Builtin(Int(I64)), Builtin(Int(U8))]) = CallByName `#UserApp.alpha`;
let `#UserApp.1` : Builtin(Int(U8)) = StructAtIndex 1 `#UserApp.7`;
let `#UserApp.3` : Struct([Builtin(Int(I64)), Builtin(Int(U8))]) = CallByName `#UserApp.alpha`;
let `#UserApp.2` : Builtin(Int(U8)) = StructAtIndex 1 `#UserApp.3`;
let `#UserApp.0` : Builtin(List(Builtin(Int(U8)))) = Array [`#UserApp.1`, `#UserApp.2`];
ret `#UserApp.0`;
```
What's happening is that we need to specialize `alpha` twice - once for the
type of a narrowed to a U8, another time for the type of b narrowed to a U8.
We do the specialization for alpha.b first - record fields are sorted by
layout, so we generate a record of type {i64, u8}. But then we go to
specialize alpha.a, but this has the same layout - {i64, u8} - so we reuse
the existing one! So (at least for records), we need to include record field
order associated with the sorted layout fields, so that we don't reuse
monomorphizations like this incorrectly!
