This allows the core NamedTuple constructor to be defined without generated functions.
With a bit of work in the front end it will also allow splatting inside new in general, which is kind of a neat feature. Done!

Unfortunately this does not yet do much for named tuples of Unions, but it's heading in the right direction.

You'll want to teach SROA about this also

I hoped it would be enough to inline this to a normal :new expression when the length is known, and otherwise just let it be slow. Is there something else I should do more specifically?

Yeah, I guess that's ok for now. There's fancier things one could do of course, but maybe that's future work.

The workaround for JuliaLang/julia#29970 causes newer versions of Julia
to hang in the precompilation step for TypedTables.

Since JuliaLang/julia#29970 has been addressed in JuliaLang/julia#30577
the code is avoided in newer versions of Julia.
