start using zig-fmt-pointer-reform branch build of zig fmt
to fix code to use the new syntax
all of test/cases/* are processed, but there are more left
to be done - all the std lib used by the behavior tests
* refactor std.zig.parser
* fix compiler crashing for some compile errors
* take advantage of @field in std.zig.ast
* move ast.NodeFoo to ast.Node.Foo
* comment preservation is more explicit
See #911
* remove @cmpxchg, add @cmpxchgWeak and @cmpxchgStrong
- See explanations in the langref.
* add operand type as first parameter
* return type is ?T where T is the operand type

'zig run file.zig' builds a file and stores the artifacts in the global
cache. On successful compilation the binary is executed.
'zig run file.zig -- a b c' does the same, but passes the arguments a,
b and c as runtime arguments to the program. Everything after an '--' are
treated as runtime arguments.
On a posix system, a shebang can be used to run a zig file directly. An
example shebang would be '#!/usr/bin/zig run'. You may not be able pass
extra compile arguments currently as part of the shebang. Linux for example
treats all arguments after the first as a single argument which will result
in an 'invalid command'.
Currently there is no customisability for the cache path as a compile
argument. For a posix system you can use `TMPDIR=. zig run file.zig` to
override, in this case using the current directory for the run cache.
The input file is always recompiled, even if it has changed. This is
intended to be cached but further discussion/thought needs to go into
this.
Closes#466.

coro return was reading from a value that coro await was
writing to. that wasn't how it was designed to work, it
was an implementation mistake.
this commit also has some work-in-progress code for fixing
error return traces across suspend points.
