Mike Gerwitz dd2232b58b tamer: asg::graph: object_gen and object_rel macros
The previous commit demonstrated the amount of boilerplate necessary for
introducing new `ObjectKind`s; this abstracts away a lot of that
boilerplate, and allows for declarative relationship definition for the
ASG's ontology.

Mike Gerwitz 454b91dfce tamer: asg::graph::object: New Tpl object
There's quite a bit of boilerplate here that'll eventually need factoring
out.  But it's also clear that it is somewhat onerous to add new object
types.

Note that a good chunk of this burden is _intentional_, via exhaustiveness
checks---adding a new type of object is an exceptional occurrence (well, in
principle, but we haven't added them all yet, so it'll be more common
initially), and we'd rather be safe to ensure that everything is properly
considering how that new type of object interacts with it.

Let's not confuse coupling with safety---the latter causes a burden because
of the former, not because of itself; it provides a service to us.

But, nonetheless, we'll want to reduce this burden somewhat since there are
a number more to add.
