\TYPE {string_of_type : hol_type -> string}
\SYNOPSIS
Converts a HOL type to a string representation.
\DESCRIBE

as a string, similar to what is printed automatically at the toplevel, though 
without the surrounding quotes and colon.
\FAILURE

\EXAMPLE
{
  # string_of_type bool_ty;;
  val it : string = "bool"
}
