Implement -XStaticValues
Summary:
As proposed in [1], this extension introduces a new syntactic form
`static e`, where `e :: a` can be any closed expression. The static form
produces a value of type `StaticPtr a`, which works as a reference that
programs can "dereference" to get the value of `e` back. References are
like `Ptr`s, except that they are stable across invocations of a
program.
The relevant wiki pages are [2, 3], which describe the motivation/ideas
and implementation plan respectively.
