register mechanism to customize the behavior of this generic
val register0 : (module S0) -> unit
Extending an existing generic for a particular type name

The use of first class modules there is essentially because we cannot talk about a variable of kind * -> k val register1 : 'a 't Typerep.t -> ('a computation -> 'a 't computation) -> unit ...

val register1 : (module S1) -> unit
val register2 : (module S2) -> unit
val register3 : (module S3) -> unit
val register4 : (module S4) -> unit
val register5 : (module S5) -> unit
val register : 'a Std_internal.Typerep.t -> 'a computation -> unit
special less scary type when the type has no parameters. this is equivalent as using register0
val of_typerep : 'a Std_internal.Typerep.t -> [ `generic of 'a computation ]
main function : compute the generic computation from the typerep
module Computation: Type_generic.Computation  with type 'a t = 'a t
exported to build a computation on top of a previous one
