whoawhoa hang on, only do that if you're happy that SimdLayout should derive 
from ast.Shape, that layout() should take a dict *only* (not have
signed/unsigned
because, obviously, by deriving from ast.Shape() SimdLayout *already has*
a signed member, and *only* if you can guarantee to have it 100% completed
within one day.

the reason is because if not i have to completely stop all ongoing
work on PartitionedSignal because it becomes too much to merge
new submodules into the altered code.

(i am currently investigating how to add __getattr__, Part, and Slice,
all of which are interrelated)

welcome to planning on large complex projects, sigh.
