==================== Summary ====================

Name: FFI-Kernel-nice.118
Author: nice

UUID: a8c48997-991d-4e32-9b67-6d93fc0dabe0
Ancestors: FFI-Kernel-mt.117

Add the ability to allocate: an ExternalType or an ExternalStructure/Alias.

It's equivalent to new: but we want a specific idiom, C types are not exactly classes.

Add the ability to compare aliases (at least for equality)
