Parse_type was partially taken from an old ocamldoc codebase which had a
conflicting license. Rewrite essentially from scratch, following the
structure of OCaml 4.03's driver/compile.ml `implementation` function.

Combined module compilation and linking was not fully correct, modules
would only be output when opened, but not referenced.
All output now wrapped in the appropriate module object.
Still todo is a process of linking the dependencies together and
addition of module or file name to the logged output.

Thomas' commit was nearly there, and his intuition spot on. It seems that trying to update module_code inline with the new module code added to the front resulted in the other created modules being dropped from the list.

OPening a module multiple times may still be an issue (I haven't found a check against mod_gen)

1. Now, the call to ./main.byte produces three files:
        - a (buggy) logged version
        - a version without annotation
        - the Format that is being used (for debug purpose).

2. Modules are quite soapy to handle:
        - Name shadowing (supported).
        - Inclusion of opened modules (no log information is
                included)
        - Accessed but not opened modules (kind of break the
                default parameters handled with attributes).

To play with:
        ./main.byte tests/stack.ml
        ./main.byte tests/calc.ml -I tests
And behold:
        <cmd> tests/calc.js
        where <cmd> is something like `nl', `cat [-n]', `less', `more'.
