The purpose of this is:
* Only one way to do things
* Changing a function with void return type to return a possible
error becomes a 1 character change, subtly encouraging
people to use errors.
See #632
Here are some imperfect sed commands for performing this update:
remove arrow:
```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\)-> /\1/g' $(find . -name "*.zig")
```
add void:
```
sed -i 's/\(\bfn\b.*\))\s*{/\1) void {/g' $(find ../ -name "*.zig")
```
Some cleanup may be necessary, but this should do the bulk of the work.
Old:
```
while (condition; expression) {}
```
New:
```
while (condition) : (expression) {}
```
This is in preparation to allow nullable and
error union types as the condition. See #357
See #329
Supporting work:
* move std.cstr.Buffer0 to std.buffer.Buffer
* add build.zig to example/shared_library/ and add an automated test
for it
* add std.list.List.resizeDown
* improve std.os.makePath
- no longer recursive
- takes into account . and ..
* add std.os.path.isAbsolute
* add std.os.path.resolve
* reimplement std.os.path.dirname
- no longer requires an allocator
- handles edge cases correctly
* add `setFnTest`, `setFnVisible`, `setFnStaticEval`,
`setFnNoInline` builtin functions to replace previous
directive functionality
* add `coldcc` and `nakedcc` as keywords which can be used as part
of a function prototype.
* `setDebugSafety` builtin can be used to set debug safety features
at a per block scope level.
* closes#169
