`-l :path/to/lib.so` behavior on gcc/clang is:
- the path is recorded as-is: no paths, exact filename (`libX.so.Y`).
- no rpaths.
The previous version removed the `:` and pretended it's a positional
argument to the linker. That works in almost all cases, except in how
rules_go[1] does things (the Bazel wrapper for Go).
Test case in #15743, output:
gcc rpath:
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libversioned.so.2]
0x000000000000001d (RUNPATH) Library runpath: [$ORIGIN/x]
gcc plain:
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libversioned.so.2]
zig cc rpath:
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libversioned.so.2]
0x000000000000001d (RUNPATH) Library runpath: [$ORIGIN/x]
zig cc plain:
0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libversioned.so.2]
Fixes#15743

* move `ptrBitWidth` from Arch to Target since it needs to know about the abi
* double isn't always 8 bits
* AVR uses 1-byte alignment for everything in GCC
* build.zig: the result of b.option() can be assigned directly in many
cases thanks to the return type being an optional
* std.Build: make the build system aware of the
std.Build.Step.Compile.BuildId type when used as an option.
- remove extraneous newlines in error logs
* simplify caching logic
* simplify hexstring parsing tests and use a doc test
* simplify hashing logic. don't use an optional when the `none` tag
already provides this meaning.
* CLI: fix incorrect linker arg parsing
Since the owner can either be a `Decl` or a `LazySymbol` we need
to preserve this information at the codegen generate function level
so that we can then correctly work out the corresponding `Atom`
in the linker.
* docs(std.math): elaborate on difference between absCast and absInt
* docs(std.rand.Random.weightedIndex): elaborate on likelihood
I think this makes it easier to understand.
* langref: add small reminder
* docs(std.fs.path.extension): brevity
* docs(std.bit_set.StaticBitSet): mention the specific types
* std.debug.TTY: explain what purpose this struct serves
This should also make it clearer that this struct is not supposed to provide unrelated terminal manipulation functionality such as setting the cursor position or something because terminals are complicated and we should keep this struct simple and focused on debugging.
* langref(package listing): brevity
* langref: explain what exactly `threadlocal` causes to happen
* std.array_list: link between swapRemove and orderedRemove
Maybe this can serve as a TLDR and make it easier to decide.
* PrefetchOptions.locality: clarify docs that this is a range
This confused me previously and I thought I can only use either 0 or 3.
* fix typos and more
* std.builtin.CallingConvention: document some CCs
* langref: explain possibly cryptic names
I think it helps knowing what exactly these acronyms (@clz and @ctz) and
abbreviations (@popCount) mean.
* variadic function error: add missing preposition
* std.fmt.format docs: nicely hyphenate
* help menu: say what to optimize for
I think this is slightly more specific than just calling it
"optimizations". These are speed optimizations. I used the word
"performance" here.
Rather than using a function call to verify if an error fits within
the global error set's length, we now store the error set' size in
the .rodata segment of the linear memory and load that value onto
the stack to check with the integer value.
Creates a global undefined symbol when this instruction is called.
The linker will then resolve it as a lazy symbol, ensuring it is
only generated when the symbol was created. In `flush` it will then
generate the function as only then, all errors are known and we can
generate the function body. This logic allows us to re-use the same
functionality of linker-synthetic-functions.
