When acessing a packed struct member via a byte aligned ptr (from the optimisation in Sema.structFieldPtrByIndex())
the codegen must apply the parent ptr packed_offset in addition to the field offset itself.

When a signed integer's bitsize is not 32 or 64, but the given
bitsize and wanted bitsize are either both represented by Wasm's i32
or i64, we must either sign extend or wrap the integer.
Abridged summary:
* Move `Module.Fn` into `InternPool`.
* Delete a lot of confusing and problematic `Sema` logic related to
generic function calls.
This commit removes `Module.Fn` and replaces it with two new
`InternPool.Tag` values:
* `func_decl` - corresponding to a function declared in the source
code. This one contains line/column numbers, zir_body_inst, etc.
* `func_instance` - one for each monomorphization of a generic
function. Contains a reference to the `func_decl` from whence the
instantiation came, along with the `comptime` parameter values (or
types in the case of `anytype`)
Since `InternPool` provides deduplication on these values, these fields
are now deleted from `Module`:
* `monomorphed_func_keys`
* `monomorphed_funcs`
* `align_stack_fns`
Instead of these, Sema logic for generic function instantiation now
unconditionally evaluates the function prototype expression for every
generic callsite. This is technically required in order for type
coercions to work. The previous code had some dubious, probably wrong
hacks to make things work, such as `hashUncoerced`. I'm not 100% sure
how we were able to eliminate that function and still pass all the
behavior tests, but I'm pretty sure things were still broken without
doing type coercion for every generic function call argument.
After the function prototype is evaluated, it produces a deduplicated
`func_instance` `InternPool.Index` which can then be used for the
generic function call.
Some other nice things made by this simplification are the removal of
`comptime_args_fn_inst` and `preallocated_new_func` from `Sema`, and the
messy logic associated with them.
I have not yet been able to measure the perf of this against master
branch. On one hand, it reduces memory usage and pointer chasing of the
most heavily used `InternPool` Tag - function bodies - but on the other
hand, it does evaluate function prototype expressions more than before.
We will soon find out.
Previously, interned values were represented as AIR instructions using
the `interned` tag. Now, the AIR ref directly encodes the InternPool
index. The encoding works as follows:
* If the ref matches one of the static values, it corresponds to the same InternPool index.
* Otherwise, if the MSB is 0, the ref corresponds to an InternPool index.
* Otherwise, if the MSB is 1, the ref corresponds to an AIR instruction index (after removing the MSB).
Note that since most static InternPool indices are low values (the
exceptions being `.none` and `.var_args_param_type`), the first rule is
almost a nop.
This actually used to be how it worked in stage1, and there was this
issue to change it: #2649
So this commit is a reversal to that idea. One motivation for that issue
was avoiding emitting the panic handler in compilations that do not have
any calls to panic. This commit only resolves the panic handler in the
event of a safety check function being emitted, so it does not have that
flaw.
The other reason given in that issue was for optimizations that elide
safety checks. It's yet to be determined whether that was a good idea or
not; this can get re-explored when we start adding optimization passes
to AIR.
This commit adds these AIR instructions, which are only emitted if
`backendSupportsFeature(.safety_checked_arithmetic)` is true:
* add_safe
* sub_safe
* mul_safe
It removes these nonsensical AIR instructions:
* addwrap_optimized
* subwrap_optimized
* mulwrap_optimized
The safety-checked arithmetic functions push the burden of invoking the
panic handler into the backend. This makes for a messier compiler
implementation, but it reduces the amount of AIR instructions emitted by
Sema, which reduces time spent in the secondary bottleneck of the
compiler. It also generates more compact LLVM IR, reducing time spent in
the primary bottleneck of the compiler.
Finally, it eliminates 1 stack allocation per safety-check which was
being used to store the resulting tuple. These allocations were going to
be annoying when combined with suspension points.
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
Anecdote 1: The generic version is way more popular than the non-generic
one in Zig codebase:
git grep -w alignForward | wc -l
56
git grep -w alignForwardGeneric | wc -l
149
git grep -w alignBackward | wc -l
6
git grep -w alignBackwardGeneric | wc -l
15
Anecdote 2: In my project (turbonss) that does much arithmetic and
alignment I exclusively use the Generic functions.
Anecdote 3: we used only the Generic versions in the Macho Man's linker
workshop.
When lowering a decl value we verify whether its owner decl index
equals to the decl index of the decl being lowered. When this is not
the case, we are lowering an alias. So instead, we will now lower
the owner decl instead and call its symbol to ensure its type
is being correctly generated.
The main motivation for this commit is eliminating Decl.value_arena.
Everything else is dominoes.
Decl.name used to be stored in the GPA, now it is stored in InternPool.
It ended up being simpler to migrate other strings to be interned as
well, such as struct field names, union field names, and a few others.
This ended up requiring a big diff, sorry about that. But the changes
are pretty nice, we finally start to take advantage of InternPool's
existence.
global_error_set and error_name_list are simplified. Now it is a single
ArrayHashMap(NullTerminatedString, void) and the index is the error tag
value.
Module.tmp_hack_arena is re-introduced (it was removed in
eeff407941560ce8eb5b737b2436dfa93cfd3a0c) in order to deal with
comptime_args, optimized_order, and struct and union fields. After
structs and unions get moved into InternPool properly, tmp_hack_arena
can be deleted again.
This is neither a type nor a value. Simplifies `addStrLit` as well as
the many places that switch on `InternPool.Key`.
This is a partial revert of bec29b9e498e08202679aa29a45dab2a06a69a1e.
This is a bit odd, because this value doesn't actually exist:
see #15909. This gets all the empty enum/union behavior tests passing.
Also adds an assertion to `Sema.analyzeBodyInner` which would have
helped figure out the issue here much more quickly.
The Zig language allows the compiler to make this optimization
automatically. We should definitely make the compiler do that, and
revert this commit. However, that will not happen in this branch, and I
want to continue to explore achieving performance parity with
merge-base. So, this commit changes all InternPool parameters to be
passed by const pointer rather than by value.
I measured a 1.03x ± 0.03 speedup vs the previous commit compiling the
(set of passing) behavior tests. Against merge-base, this commit is
1.17x ± 0.04 slower, which is an improvement from the previous
measurement of 1.22x ± 0.02.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this to happen, and
it should become obsolete when comptime mutation is rewritten
and the remaining legacy value tags are remove, so keeping this
as a separate revertable commit.
One change worth noting in this commit is that `module.global_error_set`
is no longer kept strictly up-to-date. The previous code reserved
integer error values when dealing with error set types, but this is no
longer needed because the integer values are not needed for semantic
analysis unless `@errorToInt` or `@intToError` are used and therefore
may be assigned lazily.
