I originally called the Slice variants to work around
comptime code not supporting `@ptrCast`, but I fixed that
in 757d0665 so now the workaround is no longer needed.
* add `@bswap` builtin function. See #767
* comptime evaluation facilities are improved to be able to
handle a `@ptrCast` with a backing array.
* `@truncate` allows "truncating" a u0 value to any integer
type, and the result is always comptime known to be `0`.
* when specifying pointer alignment in a type expression,
the alignment value of pointers which do not have addresses
at runtime is ignored, and always has the default/ABI alignment
* threw in a fix to freebsd/x86_64.zig to update syntax from
language changes
* some improvements are pending #863closes#638closes#1733

Relevant #764
dwarf debug info is modified to use this instead of std.os.File
directly to make it easier for bare metal projects to take advantage
of debug info parsing
closes#1414
std.io.InStream.read now can return less than buffer size
introduce std.io.InStream.readFull for previous behavior
add std.os.File.openWriteNoClobberC
rename std.os.deleteFileWindows to std.os.deleteFileW
remove std.os.deleteFilePosix
add std.os.deleteFileC
std.os.copyFile no longer takes an allocator
std.os.copyFileMode no longer takes an allocator
std.os.AtomicFile no longer takes an allocator
add std.os.renameW
add windows support for std.os.renameC
add a test for std.os.AtomicFile
To make dump testable added dumpToSteam which takes a stream as input
and added the stream as a paraemter to dumpRecursive.
Added test "std.atomic.Queue dump"
And to make the test more robust SliceOutStream.pos is now public. This
allows the user of SliceOutStream to know the length of the data captured.
SliceStream is a read-only stream wrapper around a slice of bytes. It
allows adapting algorithms which work on InStreams to in-memory data.
PeekStream is a stream wrapper which allows "putting back" bytes into
the stream so that they can be read again. This will help make
look-ahead parsers easier to write.
* enable slicing for single-item ptr to arrays
* disable slicing for other single-item pointers
* enable indexing for single-item ptr to arrays
* disable indexing for other single-item pointers

This will convert all & into *. Due to the syntax
ambiguity (which is why we are making this change),
even address-of & will turn into *, so you'll have
to manually fix thes instances. You will be guaranteed
to get compile errors for them - expected 'type', found 'foo'
* move std.io.File to std.os.File
* add `zig fmt` to self hosted compiler
* introduce std.io.BufferedAtomicFile API
* introduce std.os.AtomicFile API
* add `std.os.default_file_mode`
* change FileMode on posix from being a usize to a u32
* add std.os.File.mode to return mode of an open file
* std.os.copyFile copies the mode from the source file instead of
using the default file mode for the dest file
* move `std.os.line_sep` to `std.cstr.line_sep`
Before we accepted a nullable allocator for some stuff like
opening files. Now we require an allocator.
Use the mem.FixedBufferAllocator pattern if a bound on the amount
to allocate is known.
This also establishes the pattern that usually an allocator is the
first argument to a function (possibly after "self").
fix docs for std.cstr.addNullByte
self hosted compiler:
* only build docs when explicitly asked to
* clean up main
* stub out zig fmt
