beam_validator: Refactor type management
Our current type management (based on set_type_reg etc) is rather
error-prone, often requiring special cases on a per-instruction
basis. This commit replaces nearly all ad-hoc mechanisms with more
general abstractions:
* assign - Moves a term.
* create_term - Creates a new term.
* extract_term - Extracts a term from another, maintaining
fragility as required.
* update_type - Adds more type information about a register.
* type_test - Helper function for type tests that subtracts on
failure and meets on success.
