Rose (n-ary) trees with both upwards- (i.e. cached) and downwards-traveling (i.e. accumulating) monoidal annotations. This is used as the core data structure underlying the diagrams framework, but potentially has other applications as well.

Abstractly, a DUALTree is a rose (n-ary) tree with data of one type at leaves, data of another type at internal nodes, and two types of monoidal annotations, one travelling "up" the tree and one traveling "down".
