Library methods such as 'listOf' are resolved
to have the package fragments as their parents,
but JVM expects their containing file classes as parents.
This fix generates those file classes and
uses them as parent replacements for such library methods.
Before this commit we had two statements blocks for 'for' loops:
range variable declaration + iterator variable declaration + while loop.
However, BE requires a bit different loop structure to make lowerings
properly so in this commit iterator declaration & while loop were
extracted to separate block.
last-exclusive progressions (i.e., "until" progressions and loop over
array indices).
This change makes it possible to correctly implement the handling of
"step" progressions. Computing the last element of a stepped progression
requires that the last is inclusive.
Also invert the while loop (into if + do-while) that is used when
lowering for-loops over progressions that cannot overflow. This keeps
the performance characteristics closer to the ForLoopsLowering in
kotlin-native, since the goal is to converge to this shared version.
Also used IrType instead of KotlinType, where possible.

NB: for-in-until loop is generated as precondition loop, because the
corresponding range is right-exclusive (and thus we have no problems
with integer overflows).
