* There is now a main_pkg in addition to root_pkg. They are usually the
same. When using `zig test`, main_pkg is the user's source file and
root_pkg has the test runner.
* scanDecl no longer looks for test decls outside the package being
tested. honoring `--test-filter` is still TODO.
* test runner main function has a void return value rather than
`anyerror!void`
* Sema is improved to generate better AIR for for loops on slices.
* Sema: fix incorrect capacity calculation in zirBoolBr
* Sema: add compile errors for trying to use slice fields as an lvalue.
* Sema: fix type coercion for error unions
* Sema: fix analyzeVarRef generating garbage AIR
* C codegen: fix renderValue for error unions with 0 bit payload
* C codegen: implement function pointer calls
* CLI: fix usage text
Adds 4 new AIR instructions:
* slice_len, slice_ptr: to get the ptr and len fields of a slice.
* slice_elem_val, ptr_slice_elem_val: to get the element value of
a slice, and a pointer to a slice.
AstGen gains a new functionality:
* One of the unused flags of struct decls is now used to indicate
structs that are known to have non-zero size based on the AST alone.
When using `build-exe` or `build-lib -dynamic`, `-fcompiler-rt` means building
compiler-rt into a static library and then linking it into the executable.
When using `build-lib`, `-fcompiler-rt` means building compiler-rt into an
object file and then adding it into the static archive.
Before this commit, when using `build-obj`, zig would build compiler-rt
into an object file, and then on ELF, use `lld -r` to merge it into the
main object file. Other linker backends of LLD do not support `-r` to
merge objects, so this failed with error messages for those targets.
Now, `-fcompiler-rt` when used with `build-obj` acts as if the user puts
`_ = @import("compiler_rt");` inside their root source file. The symbols
of compiler-rt go into the same compilation unit as the root source file.
This is hooked up for stage1 only for now. Once stage2 is capable of
building compiler-rt, it should be hooked up there as well.
This breaking change disambiguates between overriding the lib dir when
performing an installation with the Zig Build System, and overriding the
lib dir that the Zig installation itself uses.

Conflicts:
* src/clang.zig
* src/llvm.zig
- this file got moved to src/llvm/bindings.zig in master branch so I
had to put the new LLVM arch/os enum tags into it.
* lib/std/target.zig, src/stage1/target.cpp
- haiku had an inconsistency with its default target ABI, gnu vs
eabi. In this commit we make it gnu in both places to match the
latest changes by @hoanga.
* src/translate_c.zig
restore cmake to be capable of figuring out the zig version
restore config.h and config.zig. config.h is used to detect whether we
should propagate cmake configuration information to build.zig; however
it can be overridden with -Dstatic-llvm.
fix not passing -DZIG_LINK_MODE with zig build.
when using the cmake build path, build.zig no longer tries to call
llvm-config. Instead it relies 100% on the LLVM_LIBRARIES cmake variable.
build.zig logic reworked and simplified.
The main idea here is that there are now 2 ways to get a stage1 zig
binary:
* The cmake path. Requirements: cmake, system C++ compiler, system
LLVM, LLD, Clang libraries, compiled by the system C++ compiler.
* The zig path. Requirements: a zig installation, system LLVM, LLD,
Clang libraries, compiled by the zig installation.
Note that the former can be used to now take the latter path.
Removed config.h.in and config.zig.in. The build.zig script no longer is
coupled to the cmake script.
cmake no longer tries to determine the zig version. A build with cmake
will yield a stage1 zig binary that reports 0.0.0+zig0. This is going to
get reverted.
`zig build` now accepts `-Dstage1` which will build the stage1 compiler,
and put the stage2 backend behind a feature flag.
build.zig is simplified to only support the use case of enabling LLVM
support when the LLVM, LLD, and Clang libraries were built by zig. This
part is probably sadly going to have to get reverted to make package
maintainers happy.
Zig build system addBuildOption supports a couple new types.
The biggest reason to make this change is that the zig path is an
attractive option for doing compiler development work on Windows. It
allows people to work on the compiler without having MSVC installed,
using only a .zip file that contains Zig + LLVM/LLD/Clang libraries.
* std.log: still print error messages in ReleaseSmall builds.
- when start code gets an error code from main, it uses std.log.err
to report the error. this resulted in a test failure because
ReleaseSmall wasn't printing `error: TheErrorCode` when an error
was returned from main. But that seems like it should keep working.
So I changed the std.log defaults. I plan to follow this up with a
proposal to change the names of and reduce the quantity of the
log levels.
* warning emitted when using -femit-h when using stage1 backend; fatal
log message when using -femit-h with self-hosted backend (because the
feature is not yet available)
* fix double `test-cli` build steps in zig's build.zig
* update docgen to use new CLI
* translate-c uses `-x c` and generates a temporary basename with a
`.h` extension. Otherwise clang reports an error.
* --show-builtin implies -fno-emit-bin
* restore the compile error for using an extern "c" function without
putting -lc on the build line. we have to know about the libc
dependency up front.
* Fix ReleaseFast and ReleaseSmall getting swapped when passing the
value to the stage1 backend.
* correct the zig0 CLI usage text.
* update test harness code to the new CLI.
These CLI options are now forwarded to the stage1 backend.
We're not going to support the -mllvm CLI option any longer. As a
compromise, we unconditionally tell LLVM to output intel x86 syntax when
using -femit-asm.
Simplify stage1 logic; it no longer has the concept of an output
directory. --output-dir is no longer a valid CLI option. cmake uses
the `-femit-bin=[path]` option.
Note the changes to test/cli.zig. This breaks the CLI API that Godbolt
is using so we're going to want to open a PR to help them upgrade to the
new CLI for the upcoming Zig 0.7.0 release.
