<p>
An implementation of generic functions based on CLOS and the
protocols defined in the Art of the Metaobject protocol, adapted for
JS. These adaptations include using the prototype chain instead of
classes and additionally providing extensible specializers (as in
<a href="https://github.com/sbcl/specializable"
>https://github.com/sbcl/specializable</a
>). For the moment, this is only used to provide a Shape
specializer, as the details of the interaction between such
specializers and subtyping are an open question.

<p>
Defining a function works by calling with some information about
the function name and arguments. Methods are then added by calling
the appropriate methods with a pair of arguments: a list of
specializers (prototypes in the simple case, although there are
other options) and a function to run if those specializers match.

<p>
After a generic function has been defined, you can get the
function to call it by accessing its attribute.

maintained, you can add methods like so:
