Merge code and output to make examples easier to read

I think this:
my Int $var;
say $var.WHAT;
my $var2;
say $var2.WHAT;
$var2 = 1;
say $var2.WHAT;
$var2 = "Hello";
say $var2.WHAT;
$var2 = True;
say $var2.WHAT;
$var2 = Nil;
say $var2.WHAT;
Output
(Int)
(Any)
(Int)
(Str)
(Bool)
(Any)
Would be easier to read as:
my Int $var;
say $var.WHAT; # (Int)
my $var2;
say $var2.WHAT; # (Any)
$var2 = 1;
say $var2.WHAT; # (Int)
$var2 = "Hello";
say $var2.WHAT; # (Str)
$var2 = True;
say $var2.WHAT; # (Bool)
$var2 = Nil;
say $var2.WHAT; # (Any)
Also, in places where you want to say, "evaluates to", #=>
would work. For example,
my @animals = ['camel','llama','owl'];
say @animals;
(where, it's output is not currently shown) could just be
my @animals = ['camel','llama','owl'];
#=> [camel llama owl]
(where the output is shown and included right next to the code that generated it).

@uvtc I updated the introspection example as you proposed.
