minimal value types proposal

[John Rose]

Brian and I have been working on finding a minimal subset
of value-type functionality that will allow current experiments
to move forward.  Here is what we have come up with.

Please let us know what you think.

(I sent a separate notification to valhalla-spec-experts, for those
who are unable to participate on this dev list or browse links on OJN.)
