Refine the type of function results in AST.signature
Before it was "option typ". Now it is a proper inductive type that can also express small integer types (8/16-bit unsigned/signed integers). One benefit is that external functions get more precise types that control better their return values. As a consequence, the CompCert C type preservation property now holds unconditionally, without extra typing hypotheses on external functions.
