[cfe-dev] Decoupling semantics from parsing

[McCorney Severin via cfe-dev]

Hello,

1. What I meant was very clear: currently, type checking is embedded into
the parsing logic and AST node creation and it would be really clean if
they were decoupled.
2. Yep, I have been spending time with the codebase for the past couple of
years ... just never contributed.
