* move inferred error sets into InternPool.
- they are now represented by pointing directly at the corresponding
function body value.
* inferred error set working memory is now in Sema and expires after
the Sema for the function corresponding to the inferred error set is
finished having its body analyzed.
* error sets use a InternPool.Index.Slice rather than an actual slice
to avoid lifetime issues.
The idea here is to move towards a future where anonymous decls are
represented entirely by an `InternPool.Index`. This was needed to start
implementing `InternPool.getFuncDecl` which requires moving creation and
deletion of Decl objects into InternPool.
* remove `Namespace.anon_decls`
* remove the concept of cleaning up resources from anonymous decls,
relying on InternPool instead.
* move namespace and decl object allocation into InternPool
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.
Now you can add new calling conventions that you confirmed to work with
variadic functions simply in a single place and the rest will work
automatically.
All of the std except these few functions call it "eql" instead of "eq".
This has previously tripped me up when I expected the equality check function to be called "eql"
(just like all the rest of the std) instead of "eq".
The motivation is consistency.
If search "eq" on Autodoc, these functions stick out and it looks inconsistent.
I just noticed there are also a few functions spelling it out as "equal" (such as std.mem.allEqual).
Maybe those functions should also spell it "eql" but that can be done in a future PR.
This implements the semantics as discussed in today's compiler meeting,
where the alignment of pointers to fields of default-layout unions
cannot exceed the field's alignment.

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
I achieved this through a major refactor of the logic of analyzeMinMax.
This change should be compatible with vectors of comptime_int, which
Andrew said are supposed to work (but which currently do not).
Calling into coercion logic here is a little opaque, and more to the
point wholly unnecessary. Instead, the (very short) logic is now
implemented directly in Sema.
Resolves: #16033
Previously, this logic was split between Sema.coerceValueInMemory and
InternPool.getCoerced. This led to issues when trying to coerce e.g. an
optional containing an aggregate, because we'd call through to
InternPool's version which only recurses on itself so could not coerce
aggregates. Unifying them is fairly simple, and also simplified a bit of
logic in Sema.
Also fixes a key lifetime bug in aggregate coercion.
