Add docs for implementing infinite types in a value based language.
Since we are a value based language and do not have the concept of
pointers, then if we want to lay out the memory of datatypes we run
into a problem when the types represent recursive datastructures:
these are infinite in size. So we have an algorithm for turning
some types into pointer-like things, such that we can lay everything
out in memory.
