Performance: changes in build paths and typer's application

E. Rivas requested to merge er433/build/context into dev

Motivation and Context

It was reported that Checker project was slow to type with current versions of LIGO after #include was replaced with #import.

Description

In this MR we apply two changes:

  • We use Melwyn's observation that paths are not normalized in the build system (and apply his path).
  • Then, we optimize application of type-checker to only do work in case there's some case to work (texists_var).
  • Finally, it adds an usage of remove_unused for compile expression.
