compile :: Options -> [Module] -> Either String (String, String, Environment)

Compile a collection of modules

The compilation pipeline proceeds as follows:

• Sort the modules based on module dependencies, checking for cyclic dependencies.
• Perform a set of desugaring passes.
• Type check, and elaborate values to include type annotations and type class dictionaries.
• Regroup values to take into account new value dependencies introduced by elaboration
• Generate Javascript, and perform optimization passes.
• Pretty-print the generated Javascript
