 - replace certain uses of inferredType.getOr(DataType.UNDEFINED) by i.getOrElse({ errorhandler })
 - see if we can remove more "[InferredType].getOr(DataType.UNDEFINED)"
 - use more of Result<> and Either<> to handle errors/ nulls better
-- fix the asm-labels problem (github issue #62)
 - can we get rid of pieces of asmgen.AssignmentAsmGen by just reusing the AugmentableAssignment ? generated code should not suffer
 - c64: make the graphics.BITMAP_ADDRESS configurable (VIC banking)
 - optimize several inner loops in gfx2 even further?
