## Message

```
Value: add `intern` and `unintern` to facilitate code conversion

This allows some code (like struct initializers) to use interned types
while other code (such as comptime mutation) continues to use legacy
types.

With these changes, an `zig build-obj empty.zig` gets to a crash on
missing interned error union types.

```
