If we pretty print to a file and read it back in, we expect to
get the same cerl data structures back.

Annotations would not be accepted for all constructs.

We are about to deprecate core_lib:get_anno/1 and core_lib:set_anno/2,
so we should stop using them in the compiler.

Use the same syntax for map pairs in Core Erlang code as in the
Erlang Code. This Erlang code:
M#{x:=42,y=>1}
will look like this in Core Erlang:
~{'x':=42,'y'=>1|M}~

v3_core is careful to always create literals whenever possible.
Correct core_parse so it, too, always creates literals out
of literal conses. With that correction, we can remove the
workaround in sys_core_fold (introduced in 26a5dea3cb5e101)
that handles non-literal flags in a binary.

Maps have certain invariants that must be preserved:
(1) A map as a pattern must be represented as #c_map{} record,
never as a literal. The reason is that the pattern '#{}' will
match any map, not just the empty map. The literal '#{}' will
only match the empty map.
(2) In a map pattern, the key must be a literal, a variable, or
data (list or tuple). Keys that are binaries or maps *must* be
represented as literals.
(3) Maps in expressions should be represented as literals if possible.
Nothing is broken if this invariant is broken, but the generated
code will be less efficient.
To preserve invariant (1), cerl:update_c_map/3 must never collapse
a map to a literal. To preserve invariant (3), cerl:update_c_map/3
must collapse a map to a literal if possible.
To preserve both invariants, we need a way for cerl:update_c_map/3 to
know whether the map is used as a pattern or as an expression. The
simplest way is to have an 'is_pat' boolean in the #c_map{} record
which is set when a #c_map{} record is initially created.
We also need to update core_parse.yrl to establish the invariants
in the same way as v3_core, to ensure that compiling from a
.core file will work even if all optimizations on Core Erlang are
disabled.

Not only variables are allowed as arguments, the name should reflect that.
Change cerl Map argument interface
* cerl:map_arg/1 is more suitable then cerl:map_val/1 in this case.

Ex.
Instead of:
M~{~<K,V>}~
The format is now:
~{~<K,V>|M}~
This also removes a shift/reduce warning.
The changes in core_pp now requires compiler-5.0 to compile
because of is_map/1 guard, i.e. a need for a compiler with Maps know-how.

Simplify compiler internals and parsing of core format.
