It makes definition of principal constraint clearer: principal constraint is a constraint that has at least one arg of type node<> and passes to it ruleOrigin in at least one rule. Such constraints are most likely meant to define relations of nodes to terms, e.g. `typeOf` -- which is what we're interested in. At the same time semantics of values inside terms is less defined. TermFeatures are also untyped, and so complete analysis of ValueFeatures would require full code traversal of coderules program to find out whether a value feature is used to carry smth of `node` type. Relevant to MPSCR-62. |

Code Rules - Implementation Notes
Structure
The project modules are separated into several groups to separate levels of abstraction.
Logic
Define fundamental ideas used throughout the implementation, such as «data form» (a.k.a. term), logical variables, and others.
Code rules
Modules in this group define the core concepts of coderules and the logic behind it. This includes constraints, predicates, handlers, as well as code rule templates.
Constraints activation trace view for debugging the process of evaluating constraint rules.
Once finished, constraint rules produce inferred types and type errors, which are added as highlighter annotations to the editor.
Type checking
Defines a custom aspect «types», which is used to store the typing rules in the language source code.
Type checking plugin for MPS provides the actions for checking the types in a currently opened root.
Control flow
Declares only control flow aspect. All functionality is inherited from coderules language.
