See https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C02UUATR7RC/p1656581877604649 It's not for implementing right away. I'm not sure if it's the best idea, it would lead to having action-typing.yml file not self-contained. Let's wait until there's higher...

Optimize `Unit` returns

Originally created by @SerVB. If it's just `Unit`, just return Python's `None`; if it's nullable (`Unit?`), then do some more complex logic like `null` -> `None` and `Unit` -> `Unit.getInstance()`....

Build on `python-backend` branch occasionally fails

See e. g. https://github.com/krzema12/kotlin-python/runs/4344104341?check_suite_focus=true It looks like an issue not relevant to our changes. Compiling the compiler fails.

Remove unneeded lowerings and refactor needed ones

Implement DCE

Something is already inherited from JS backend, maybe it can be reused easily. I also hope that DCE is a solution to MemoryError in MicroPython.

See for example this generated commit: https://github.com/krzema12/kotlin-python/pull/97/commits/7fba4c045cc355b7db5deb91b827bdc15dab5322 The lists of failed tests were updated, but the plot wasn't.
