In a component-based source code organization of Coq `intf` doesn't
fit very well, as it sits in bit of "limbo" between different
components, and indeed, encourages developers to place types in
sometimes random places wrt the hierarchy. For example, lower parts of
the system reference `Vernacexpr`, which morally lives in a pretty
higher part of the system.
We move all the files in `intf` to the lowest place their dependencies
can accommodate:
- `Misctypes`: is used by Declaremod, thus it has to go in `library`
or below. Ideally, this file would disappear.
- `Evar_kinds`: it is used by files in `engine`, so that seems its
proper placement.
- `Decl_kinds`: used in `library`, seems like the right place. [could
also be merged.
- `Glob_term`: belongs to pretyping, where it is placed.
- `Locus`: ditto.
- `Pattern`: ditto.
- `Genredexpr`: depended by a few modules in `pretyping`, seems like
the righ place.
- `Constrexpr`: used in `pretyping`, the use is a bit unfortunate and
could be fixed, as this module should be declared in `interp` which
is the one eliminating it.
- `Vernacexpr`: same problem than `Constrexpr`; this one can be fixed
as it contains stuff it shouldn't. The right place should be `parsing`.
- `Extend`: Is placed in `pretyping` due to being used by `Vernacexpr`.
- `Notation_term`: First place used is `interp`, seems like the right place.
Additionally, for some files it could be worth to merge files of the
form `Foo` with `Foo_ops` in the medium term, as to create proper ADT
modules as done in the kernel with `Name`, etc...

This file was only used during ocamldebug sessions (in the dev/db
script). It was containing a large subset of the core cma files,
up to the printing functions. There were a few notable exceptions,
for instance no kernel/vm.cmo to avoid loading dllcoqrun.so in ocamldebug.
But printers.cma was troublesome to maintain : almost each time an ML file
was added/removed/renamed in the core of Coq, dev/printers.mllib
had to be edited, in addition to the directory-specific .mllib
(kernel/kernel.mllib and co). So I propose here to kill this file,
and put instead in dev/db several "load_printer" of the core cma files.
For that to work, we need to compile kernel/kernel.cma with the right
-dllib and -dllpath options, but that shouldn't hurt (on the contrary).
We also source now the camlpX cma in dev/db, via a new generated file
dev/camlp4.dbg containing a load_printer of either gramlib.cma or
camp4lib.cma.
If one doesn't want to perform the whole "source db" at the start
of an ocamldebug session, then the former "load_printer printers.cma"
could be replaced by:
source core.dbg
load_printer top_printers.cmo
See for instance the minimal dev/base_db.
