This moves all multi-function related code in the `functions` module
into a new `multi_function` namespace. This is similar to how there
is a `lazy_function` namespace.
The main benefit of this is that many types names that were prefixed
with `MF` (for "multi function") can be simplified.
There is also a common shorthand for the `multi_function` namespace: `mf`.
This is also similar to lazy-functions where the shortened namespace
is called `lf`.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.

While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.

This implements an optimization pass for multi-function procedures.
It optimizes memory reuse by moving destruct instructions up.
For more details see the in-code comment.
In very large fields with many short lived intermediate values, this change
can improve performance 3-4x. Furthermore, in such cases, peak memory
consumption is reduced significantly (e.g. 100x lower peak memory usage).
