A caml_apply function generated for a typ_val argument or result can also be used with a tagged immediate in the same argument or result position. At present, this fact is not exploited, meaning that we are generating many more caml_apply functions than we should be.

This patch uses a new Extended_machtype.t type which distinguishes tagged immediates, unlike Cmm.machtype. This is sufficient to make use of the above fact.

More than 80% of the caml_apply functions in ocamlopt.opt are removed by this scheme.

Tested using Closure, Flambda 1 and Flambda 2.
Still needs porting to the ocaml/ subdirectory.

Mostly good, see comments. I think we need the same for caml_curry functions to avoid explosion for them as well.

OK this now fixes the problem for caml_curry as well. I've done the backport to ocaml/.
Manually checked for Closure, Flambda 1 and Flambda 2 with the flambda-backend build that the problem is fixed for caml_apply, caml_curry and caml_send. Checked the same for the build in the ocaml/ subdirectory for Closure and Flambda 1.
