Motivated by #3210, this PR should make these bugs impossible.
We add an identity type internal to the compiler, called
sealed
, withseal
andunseal
operations just like in user space. This type isbehind an interface so we must use seal and unseal correctly otherwise
the typechecker will reject it. This type constructor can now get an
embedding instance (e_sealed) and trigger automatically whenever needed.
