The Value node struct is a weird construct. It is its own node type, but most of the time, it actually has a node type of Integer, Float, String, or BitString. As a consequence, the struct name and the node type don't match most of the time, and so it has to be treated specially a lot. There doesn't seem to be any value in the special construct. There is very little code that wants to accept all Value variants but nothing else (and even if it did, this doesn't provide any convenient way to check it), and most code wants either just one particular node type (usually String), or it accepts a broader set of node types besides just Value. This change removes the Value struct and node type and replaces them by separate Integer, Float, String, and BitString node types that are proper node types and structs of their own and behave mostly like normal node types. Also, this removes the T_Null node tag, which was previously also a possible variant of Value but wasn't actually used outside of the Value contained in A_Const. Replace that by an isnull field in A_Const.
