   Scala primitive operations are represented as methods in `Any` and `AnyVal` subclasses.

   Scala primitive operations are represented as methods in `Any` and `AnyVal` subclasses. Here we demultiplex them by providing a mapping from their symbols to integers. Different methods exist for different value types, but with the same meaning (like plus, minus, etc.). They will all be mapped to the same int.

   Note: The three equal methods have the following semantics:

   - `"=="` checks for `null`, and if non-null, calls `java.lang.Object.equals` `(class: Any; modifier: final)`. Primitive: `EQ`
   - `"eq"` usual reference comparison `(class: AnyRef; modifier: final)`. Primitive: `ID`
   - `"equals"` user-defined equality (Java semantics) `(class: Object; modifier: none)`. Primitive: `EQUALS`

   Inspired from the `scalac` compiler.
