tree-wide: shuffle headers around for about 30s compile time
This didn't really feel so worth it afterwards, but I did untangle a
bunch of stuff that should not have been tangled.

The general gist of this change is that variant bullshit was causing a
bunch of compile time, and it seems like the only way to deal with
variant induced compile time is to keep variant types out of headers.
Explicit template instantiation seems to do nothing for them.

I also seem to have gotten some back-end time improvement from
explicitly instantiating regex, but I don't know why. There is no
corresponding front-end time improvement from it: regex is still at the
top of the sinners list.
