Extending an existing generic for a particular type name

The use of first class modules there is essentially because we cannot talk about a variable of kind * -> k val register1 : 'a 't Typerep.t -> ('a computation -> 'a 't computation) -> unit ...

val register1 : (module S1) -> unit
val register2 : (module S2) -> unit
val register3 : (module S3) -> unit
val register4 : (module S4) -> unit
val register5 : (module S5) -> unit
val register : 'a Typerep_lib.Std_internal.Typerep.t -> 'a computation -> unit

special less scary type when the type has no parameters. this is equivalent as using register0

val of_typerep : 'a Typerep_lib.Std_internal.Typerep.t -> [ `generic of 'a computation ]

main function : compute the generic computation from the typerep

exported to build a computation on top of a previous one
