Introduce make_symbol.
- make_symbol provides a means to construct a full symbol (kind, value,

- parameterized by the symbol kind so that overloading would prevent
- incorrect kind/value pairs. Unfortunately parameterized constructors do
- not work well in C++ (unless the parameter also appears as an argument,
- which is not acceptable), hence the use of a function instead of a
- constructor.

Fuse the three stacks into a single one.
