This change means you can make assertions on a multi-commodity account
balance (asserting one commodity at a time). On the flip side, you can
no longer assert the complete balance of an account (new unexpected
commodities will not be detected.) We might restore that ability later,
using the == syntax.
Can be helpful when reading Ledger files, where assertions may have
different semantics; or for getting some answers from your journal
to help you fix your assertions.
Could be called --no-assertions, but this might create surprise when it
has an effect contrary to --no-new-accounts.
I had to add another flag throughout the parsers & journal read
functions, ok for now.
Amounts and journal values are often rendered too verbosely in debug
output, obscuring what's important. Here we try adjusting the level
of detail in the Show instance based on the global debug level.
Needs more work.
This refactoring fixes an O(n^2) slowdown in the balance command with
large numbers of accounts. It's now speedy, and the implementation is
clearer. To facilitate this, the Account type now represents a tree of
accounts which can easily be traversed up or down (and/or flattened
into a list).

- use new query system for command line too, filterspec is no more
- move unit tests near the code they test, run them in bottom up order, add more
- more precise Show instances, used for debugging not ui
Like ledger, price amounts are now "unobserved", ie their precision does
not affect the canonical display precisions used when displaying amounts,
and transaction balancing is done based on display precision, ie amounts
are considered to balance if their sum appears to be zero when using the
canonical display precision.
