New CLI parameter: --c-source [options] [file]
It even works with `--cache on` when there are transitive dependencies.
Instead of `builder.addCExecutable`, use `builder.addExecutable` and pass
`null` for the root source file. Then use `builder.addCSourceFile`,
which takes the path to the C code, and a list of C compiler args.
Be sure to linkSystemLibrary("c") if you want libc headers to be
available.
Merge TestStep into LibExeObjStep. That was long overdue.
* When you do field access of a type which only has one possible
value, the result is comptime-known.
* StorePtr instructions which operate on pointers to types which
only have one possible value, the result is a comptime no-op.
closes#1554
* Separate LoadPtr IR instructions into pass1 and pass2 variants.
* Define `type_size_bits` for extern structs to be the same as
their `@sizeOf(T) * 8` and allow them in packed structs.
* More helpful error messages when trying to use types in
packed structs that are not allowed.
* Support arrays in packed structs even when they are not
byte-aligned.
* Add compile error for using arrays in packed structs when the
padding bits would be problematic. This is necessary since
we do not have packed arrays.
closes#677
* `type_size_store` is no longer a thing. loading and storing a pointer
to a value may dereference up to `@sizeOf(T)` bytes, even for
integers such as `u24`.
* fix `types_have_same_zig_comptime_repr` to not think that the
same `ZigTypeId` means the `ConstExprValue` neccesarily has the
same representation.
* implement `buf_write_value_bytes` and `buf_read_value_bytes` for
`ContainerLayoutPacked`
closes#1120
* also fix extern variables with initialiaztion values to generate runtime code
* remove the workaround in example/shared_library/mathtest.zig
* introduce the ability for global variables to have Weak and LinkOnce
linkage
* fix `@export` to work for non-functions. this code needs to be
audited though.
* fix comptime ptrcast not keeping bigger alignment
* fix linker warnings when targeting darwin
closes#1903
* Fixes breaches of the guarantee that `@sizeOf(T) >= @alignOf(T)`
* Fixes std.mem.secureZero for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached
* Fixes std.mem.Allocator for integers where this guarantee previously
was breached

There's an unfortunate footgun in the current design of error sets.
The debug info type for every error set is the same as the debug info
type of the global error set, which is essentially an enum forward
declaration. The problem is that when we "replace" the forward
declaration with the final value, once we know all the possible errors,
we have to update the pointers of every error set.
So the footgun is that if you ever copy the debug info type of the
global error set, you have to add the address of the pointer to a list
of pointers that need to be updated once we "replace" the forward
declaration. I activated the footgun when I introduced the optimization
that `?anyerror` types are the same size as `anyerror` types (using 0 as
the null value), because I introduced a pointer copy of the global error
set debug info type, but forgot to add it to the list.
I'm sure that there is a better way to code this, which does not have
the footgun, but this commit contains only a fix, not a reworking of the
logic.

Previously, std.debug.assert would `@panic` in test builds,
if the assertion failed. Now, it's always `unreachable`.
This makes release mode test builds more accurately test
the actual code that will be run.
However this requires tests to call `std.testing.expect`
rather than `std.debug.assert` to make sure output is correct.
Here is the explanation of when to use either one, copied from
the assert doc comments:
Inside a test block, it is best to use the `std.testing` module
rather than assert, because assert may not detect a test failure
in ReleaseFast and ReleaseSafe mode. Outside of a test block, assert
is the correct function to use.

This commit contains everything from the copy-elision-2
branch that does not have to do with copy elision directly,
but is generally useful for master branch.
* All const values know their parents, when applicable, not
just structs and unions.
* Null pointers in const values are represented explicitly,
rather than as a HardCodedAddr value of 0.
* Rename "maybe" to "optional" in various code locations.
* Separate DeclVarSrc and DeclVarGen
* Separate PtrCastSrc and PtrCastGen
* Separate CmpxchgSrc and CmpxchgGen
* Represent optional error set as an integer, using the 0 value.
In a const value, it uses nullptr.
* Introduce type_has_one_possible_value and use it where applicable.
* Fix debug builds not setting memory to 0xaa when storing
undefined.
* Separate the type of a variable from the const value of a variable.
* Use copy_const_val where appropriate.
* Rearrange structs to pack data more efficiently.
* Move test/cases/* to test/behavior/*
* Use `std.debug.assertOrPanic` in behavior tests instead of
`std.debug.assert`.
* Fix outdated slice syntax in docs.
