Summary0000504: make checked shifts builtins
DescriptionAt the moment, we generate inline code for unchecked shifts, but a call
to a library function for checked shifts. We should generate inline code
for the latter as well. This would require extending the simple_code type
in builtin_ops.m to be able to handle not just a test *or* an assignment,
but a test *and* an assignment (if the test succeeds) *and* an abort
(if it fails).

That functionality should also allow us to generate inline code for
checked quotients and remainders.
