M.V. Hutz e85cf7ceff refactor: make lambda expression types immutable (#38)
## Summary

- Change Abstraction, Application, and Variable to use private fields with getter methods.
- Return value types instead of pointers from constructors.
- Update all type switches to match value types instead of pointer types.

## Test plan

- [x] All existing tests pass (`make test`).
