use * for pointer type instead of &

See #770

To help automatically translate code, see the
zig-fmt-pointer-reform-2 branch.

This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'
