Implement the implicit 'auto' type.

An implicitly typed local variable is strongly typed just as if it had been declared the type, but the compiler determines the type. The following two declarations of $i are functionally equivalent:
int $i = 10; // Explicitly typed.
auto $i = 10; // Implicitly typed.
