Interface REnvironmentInformation

An environment describes a (scoped) mapping of names to their definitions (BuiltIns).

The BuiltIns|BuiltInEnvironment holds R's built-in functions and constants; during serialization use builtInEnvJsonReplacer to avoid inlining it.

define - to define a new identifier definition within an environment
resolveByName - to resolve an identifier/name to its definitions within an environment
makeReferenceMaybe - to attach control dependencies to a reference
pushLocalEnvironment - to create a new local scope
popLocalEnvironment - to remove the current local scope
appendEnvironment - to append an environment to the current one
overwriteEnvironment - to overwrite the definitions in the current environment with those of another one
