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".

  Resolves #14.
  Resolves #13.

Glen Whitney 84a8b9d5c4 feat: Allow self-reference in implementations (#4)
This PR also uses such self-reference to define negate and add
  for Complex numbers in a way that is independent of component types.

  Also adds a bigint type and verifies that pocomath will then handle
  Gaussian integers "for free".

  Ensures that if one function is invalidated, then any that depend on it will be.

Glen Whitney b82336e590 feat: Add complex numbers
No negation (and therefore no subtraction) since that needs self-reference.

Glen Whitney b59a8c2ca9 feat: Allow nonrecursive whole-function dependencies (#2)
And implement negate on numbers, and use dependencies to define subtract.
