loxigen: generate legacy type_maps data from the IR

The C backend (and, for the moment, the python and java backends) still need
the type_maps data. Duplicating it between the type_maps file and the input
files is not ideal because adding a new object would require editing both
places.

This change does the minimal work to generate most of the type_maps data from
the IR. There are some stragglers where LOXI is particularly unclean (stats and
flow-mod subtypes not really using inheritance) but the goal is for a developer
who needs to add a new object to be able to do it without modifying Python
code.
