d11bbde5f9 compiler: remove anonymous struct types, unify all tuples
This commit reworks how anonymous struct literals and tuples work.

Previously, an untyped anonymous struct literal
(e.g. `const x = .{ .a = 123 }`) was given an "anonymous struct type",
which is a special kind of struct which coerces using structural
equivalence. This mechanism was a holdover from before we used
RLS / result types as the primary mechanism of type inference. This
commit changes the language so that the type assigned here is a "normal"
struct type. It uses a form of equivalence based on the AST node and the
type's structure, much like a reified (`@Type`) type.

Additionally, tuples have been simplified. The distinction between
"simple" and "complex" tuple types is eliminated. All tuples, even those
explicitly declared using `struct { ... }` syntax, use structural
equivalence, and do not undergo staged type resolution. Tuples are very
restricted: they cannot have non-`auto` layouts, cannot have aligned
fields, and cannot have default values with the exception of `comptime`
fields. Tuples currently do not have optimized layout, but this can be
changed in the future.

This change simplifies the language, and fixes some problematic
coercions through pointers which led to unintuitive behavior.

Resolves: #16865

2a6b91874a stage2: pass most test cases under InternPool
All but 2 test cases now pass (tested on x86_64 Linux, native only). The
remaining two signify an issue requiring a larger refactor, which I will
do in a separate commit.

Notable changes:
* Fix uninitialized memory when allocating objects from free lists
* Implement TypedValue printing for pointers
* Fix some TypedValue printing logic
* Work around non-existence of InternPool.remove implementation
