Shift functions

The shift functions « and » are two new primitives added to BQN based on a pattern used heavily in the compiler and a reasonable amount everywhere else. Shifts resemble but are more general than the bit-based shift operations used in low-level languages. They replace the APL pattern of a 2-wise reduction after appending or prepending an element (APL's 2≠/0,v translates to »⊸≠v), one of the more common uses of 2-wise reduction.

The result of a shift function always has the same shape as its right argument. The function adds major cells to the beginning (») or end («) of 𝕩, moving the cells already in 𝕩 to accomodate them. Some cells on the opposite side from those added will "fall off" and not be included in the result.
