FUP to bug 430416, we need to provide first class support for union types in the type environment. Currently each inferred type object has exactly one 'type' but this is not always the case.

Some points to address:
1. have to support more than one unique type
2. have to make sure we do not report multiple types if one covers the other - for example a union of Object and String, where String includes Object
3. have to update how we resolve types
