 * A code generation operation that's involved in the construction of a Type Check Block.

 * The generation of a TCB is non-linear. Bindings within a template may result in the need to
 * construct certain types earlier than they otherwise would be constructed. That is, if the
 * generation of a TCB for a template is broken down into specific operations (constructing a
 * directive, extracting a variable from a let- operation, etc), then it's possible for operations
 * earlier in the sequence to depend on operations which occur later in the sequence.
 *
 * `TcbOp` abstracts the different types of operations which are required to convert a template into
 * a TCB. This allows for two phases of processing for the template, where 1) a linear sequence of
 * `TcbOp`s is generated, and then 2) these operations are executed, not necessarily in linear
 * order.
 *
 * Each `TcbOp` may insert statements into the body of the TCB, and also optionally return a
 * `ts.Expression` which can be used to reference the operation's result.
