With derived type description tables now available to the
runtime library, it is possible to implement the concept
of "child" I/O statements in the runtime and use them to
convert instances of derived type I/O data transfers into
calls to user-defined subroutines when they have been specified
for a type. (See Fortran 2018, subclauses 12.6.4.8 & 13.7.6).
- Support formatted, list-directed, and NAMELIST
transfers to internal parent units; support these, and unformatted
transfers, for external parent units.
- Support nested child defined derived type I/O.
- Parse DT'foo'(v-list) FORMAT data edit descriptors and passes
their strings &/or v-list values as arguments to the defined
formatted I/O routines.
- Fix problems with this feature encountered in semantics and
FORMAT valiation during development and end-to-end testing.
- Convert typeInfo::SpecialBinding from a struct to a class
after adding a member function.

This is *not* user-defined derived type I/O, but rather Fortran's
built-in capabilities for using derived type data in I/O lists
and NAMELIST groups.
This feature depends on having the derived type description tables
that are created by Semantics available, passed through compilation
as initialized static objects to which pointers can be targeted
in the descriptors of I/O list items and NAMELIST groups.
NAMELIST processing now handles component references on input
(e.g., "&GROUP x%component = 123 /").
The C++ perspectives of the derived type information records
were transformed into proper classes when it was necessary to add
member functions to them.
The code in Semantics that generates derived type information
was changed to emit derived type components in component order,
not alphabetic order.

Define Fortran derived types that describe the characteristics
of derived types, and instantiations of parameterized derived
types, that are of relevance to the runtime language support
library. Define a suite of corresponding C++ structure types
for the runtime library to use to interpret instances of the
descriptions.
Create instances of these description types in Semantics as
static initializers for compiler-created objects in the scopes
that define or instantiate user derived types.
Delete obsolete code from earlier attempts to package runtime
type information.
