    Typing refactor:

      - Annotate all expressions with types
      - Refactor Typifier for cleaner information flow and better
        readability
      - Have iteration space and transformers typify newly created AST nodes

 - Add a `dtype` member to all expression nodes
 - Make the `Typifier` apply `dtype`s to all expressions
 - Adapt transformations and IterationSpace to set data types on created
   expressions
 - Refactor TypeContext and contextual typing interface to be more
   intuitive
 - Refactor the Typifier to apply more operations through the
   TypeContext
