Have a method on headerStacks called elementType that returns the type of an element

I propose in exchange to have an expression that returns a type which can be used only in typedef:
typedef typeof(expression) name
where typeof does not evaluate expression, but only returns its type.

In the interest of tidying up the set of active issues on the P4 specification repository, I'm marking this as "stalled" and closing it. Of course, we can always re-open it in the future if there is interest in resurrecting it.
