Will Hawkins 61d8f601e8 compiler, language, runtime: Separate Parser Type From Instances
Continuous Integration / Grammar Tests (push) Successful in 4m2s
Continuous Integration / Library Format Tests (push) Successful in 5m0s
Continuous Integration / Library Tests (push) Successful in 8m1s
In P4, parsers are considered types. Those parsers are instantiated.
The instantiated parsers are values. Previously, gp4 treated a parser
type and a parser value as identical. This PR makes that difference
clear _and_ sets the stage for the future.

TODO: Make the same distinction between control and action types and
values.

Will Hawkins 7c660b2b0c compiler, runtime: Refactor P4Type to P4QualifiedType
Also, refer to the different pieces of the qualified type as
qualifiers and not attributes.

Will Hawkins bd262e5b73 runtime: Parameterize Runtime
Parameterize Runtime (nee ParserRuntime) so that it can run anything
that is LibraryCallable. TODO: Refactor its API -- left mostly as
it was because changing unit tests will be laborious.
