Thanks for the patch! Here are the comments, most of which are nits.
Could you add the high level description of what we are doing somewhere or
maybe just describe the meaning of FunctionSpec since it encodes how functions
are modeled.
Also, we should explain why we are not using BodyFarm somewhere in the comment.

Please, use a typedef for the type as you are using it below in getArgType.

Are the types in FunctionSpec already canonical? If so, please, add a comment.

nit: If you could factor these out into separate helper functions, it would be
easier to read. Lot's of nesting..

What happens when NewState == State? I guess addTransition would just not do
anything, but maybe we should just make the intent explicit and not call it at
all.
