Hi,
this patch removes layout subclasses which were deemed unnecessary for
this memory access API:
* Address (this API is about contiguous memory access)
* Unresolved (by name references is especially useful in combination
with pointers)
This patch also removes the Value::contents method, on the basis that
for now there's nothing sensible the API can do with it (this will
change once we can rely upon the Vector API).
Note: the removed layouts are not gone forever, and will likely be
re-added by higher level layers.
