I have added support for automatically querying the available
annotations from the compiler to the esml-mlb-mode.

This may not be what you want. The forceUsed annotation
doesn't actually allow an argument:
parseArgs = fn args' =>
case args' of
[] => SOME ()
| _ => NONE},
Below is a trivial patch that changes the output of -show-anns
on forceUsed to
forceUsed {}
An alternative (perhaps better?) would be to change the syntax
of forceUsed to require an argument (using makeBool). This would
have the advantage of making forceUsed like all the other bool
annotations.
