1511161 - Add support for template-string-based codegen to ipdl's lower.py

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: IPC, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Nika Layzell [:nika] (ni? for response)]

This approach augments the AST used to generate IPDL's C++ code to support template string based substitutions. This is somewhat complicated by the way that the AST & ast codegen currently functions, but appears to function well.

The logic for these new entrypoints are implemented in code.py, and the outputted AST tries to be fairly straightforward, although it doesn't try to optimize itself for simplicity.
