The patch below changes the first line of `C-h f` from something like:

    car is a built-in function in ‘C source code’.

to

    car is a primitive-function in ‘C source code’.

i.e. print the actual type rather than an English description.
The type is buttonized so users can click on it to see a description of
the type (and its super/subtypes).

Beside exposing those types (and their related information), another
advantage is that it simplifies the code since we don't need to
enumerate all the different kinds of functions we may have (well, we
still do for those "function-like objects" which don't have a dedicated
type such as macros, keymaps, aliases, keyboard macros, yadda yadda, but
a single case covers all of special forms, primitive functions,
byte-code functions, module functions, and native-compiled functions).

Any comment/objection?
