Glen Whitney f68c7bd1fb fix(Types): Move distinct types into distinct identifiers
This allows types to be collected; prior to this commit they
   were conflicting from different modules.

   Uses this fix to extend sqrt to bigint, with the convention
   that it is undefined for non-perfect squares when 'predictable'
   is false and is the "best" approximation to the square root when
   'predictable' is true. Furthermore, for negative bigints, you might
   get a Gaussian integer when predictable is false; or you will just get
   your argument back when 'predictable' is true because what other
   bigint could you give back for a negative bigint?

   Also had to modify tests on the sign in sqrt(Complex) and add functions
   'zero' and 'one' to get types to match, as expected in #27.

   Adds numerous tests.

Glen Whitney 9fb3aa2959 feat: Switch to function-based specification of dependencies
Allows dependencies to be economically expressed and used.
  For example, see the new definition of subtract.
  Credit for the basic idea goes to James Drew, see

Glen Whitney 0069597a76 fix: Separate typed instance for each PocomathInstance (#15)
Also starts each PocomathInstance with no types at all, and uses the new
  situation to eliminate the need for a Complex "base case".
