There's a lot to look at, especially in the event of failure. Further, I
wanted to add additional statistics that could be eyeballed.
Right now, tamec is too fast (at least on my machine) for the precision of
/usr/bin/time: we need milliseconds, but we only get hundredths of a
second. So it'll all show as 0:00.00s. Which is okay, for now; it just
shouldn't exceed that. ;)

This extends the POC a bit by beginning to reconstruct rate blocks (note
that NIR isn't producing sub-expressions yet).
Importantly, this also adds the first system tests, now that we have an
end-to-end system. This not only gives me confidence that the system is
producing the expected output, but serves as a compromise: writing unit or
integration tests for this program derivation would be a great deal of work,
and wouldn't even catch the bugs I'm worried most about; the lowering
operation can be written in such a way as to give me high confidence in its
correctness without those more granular tests, or in conjunction with unit
or integration tests for a smaller portion.
