/**
* (Partially) define one or more operations of the instance:
*
* The sole parameter can be another Pocomath instance, in which case all
* of the types and operations of the other instance are installed in this
* one, or it can be a plain object as described below.
*
* @param {Object<string,
* PocomathInstance
* | Object<Signature, ({deps})=> implementation>>} ops
* The only parameter ops gives the semantics of the operations to install.
* The keys are operation names. The value for a key could be
* a PocomathInstance, in which case it is simply merged into this
* instance.
*
* Otherwise, ops must be an object
* mapping each desired (typed-function) signature to a function taking
* a dependency object to an implementation.
*
* For more detail, such functions should have the format
* ```
* ({depA, depB, depC: aliasC, ...}) => (opArg1, opArg2) => <result>
* ```
* where the `depA`, `depB` etc. are the names of the
* operations this implementation depends on; those operations can
* then be referred to directly by the identifiers `depA` and `depB`
* in the code for the '<result>`, or when an alias has been given
* as in the case of `depC`, by the identifier `aliasC`.
* Given an object that has these dependencies with these keys, the
* function returns a function taking the operation arguments to the
* desired result of the operation.
*
* You can specify that an operation depends on itself by using the
* special dependency identifier 'self'.
*
* You can specify that an implementation depends on just a specific
* signature of the given operation by suffixing the dependency name
* with the signature in parentheses, e.g. `add(number,number)` to
* refer to just adding two numbers. In this case, it is of course
* necessary to specify an alias to be able to refer to the supplied
* operation in the body of the implementation.
