boot: methods (fn T.m, self by address, mutation analysis), str() of any value

Methods are functions whose first parameter is the receiver's address; a method
that changes self can't be called on a temporary or a read-only value, and
calling one on a variable keeps a parameter from being borrowed. An argument
that lives inside the receiver is copied (c.merge(c)). str(x) and print of
arrays and structs go through one formatter, as in the C++ compiler.
