Records and Extended Objects

### Description

<shortdoc> In KASH3 records serve multiple purposes. First of all they allow the construction of complex structures. These data structures can easily be assigned new types by simply adding a 'type' component. They can also be used to extend existing data structures: if a record contains a 'base' component, then it is treated like its 'base' component by most functions. Furthermore records can be used to overload the operations '+', '-', '*', '/', '>', '=', 'mod' by including in an 'operations' component. </shortdoc>
