- A new type of plugin: defaulting plugins. These plugins can propose
defaults for ambiguous variables that would otherwise cause errors

Adds an automatic ``SCC`` annotation to all top level bindings late in the core pipeline after
the optimizer has run. This means these cost centres will not interfere with core-level optimizations
and the resulting profile will be closer to the performance profile of an optimized non-profiled
