Rework clj base into janet:

identify all base functions used in the prelude
translate those into janet
ensure Prelude works with new Base

Rework clj base into janet: - [x] identify all base functions used in the prelude - [ ] translate those into janet - [ ] ensure `Prelude` works with new `Base`

Most base is complete in e468add325

Left to do:

into/2
~~doc~~
to_dict

All of these have some decisions left in them.

into is used in slice and set:

in slice it is redundant, since slices return arrays instead of seqs in Janet.
in set it is not enough, since Janet has no set type and we'll have to do some fancy footwork to get these functions to work properly.

We can remove into from base, although that will mean changes in base and/or prelude.

`into` is used in `slice` and `set`: - in `slice` it is redundant, since slices return arrays instead of seqs in Janet. - in `set` it is not enough, since Janet has no set type and we'll have to do some fancy footwork to get these functions to work properly. We can remove `into` from `base`, although that will mean changes in `base` and/or `prelude`.

to_dict is used in dict, to convert structs (which are no longer in the language) and nses (now pkgs) into dicts.

I'm perfectly happy to say you can't dictify a pkg, and ditch to_dict from base.

Now that doc! exists in base, that means we should be done with this particular discussion.
