    Improved glossary/terminology at start - added unpointed and unboxed.
    Created a section at start to describe the source language.  At the moment,
     all it contains is a description of unboxed tuple constructors.
    Replaced erroneous uses of "closure" with "heap object".  According to
     the glossary, closures are enterable - things like stack objects
     are not enterable so they can't be closures.
    Clarified section 2.7 (heap and stack checks): why should we not move Hp
     during heap check?
    Added comment that I don't believe in the notion of fixed headers.
