In codegen.zig, the std.Target.Cpu.Arch is now generally available as a
comptime value where needed. This is a tradeoff that causes the compiler
binary to be more bloated, but gives us higher performance, since the
optimizer can optimize per architecture (which is usually how compilers
are designed anyway, with different code per-architecture), and it also
allows us to use per-architecture types, such as a Register enum that is
specific to the comptime-known architecture.
Adds abiSize method to Type.
I'm allowing incremental compilation of ZIR modules to be broken. This
is not a real use case of ZIR, and the feature requires a lot of code
duplication with incremental compilation of Zig AST (which works great).
* anonymous decls have automatically generated names and symbols, and
participate in the same memory management as named decls.
* the Ref instruction is deleted
* the DeclRef instruction now takes a `[]const u8` and DeclRefStr takes
an arbitrary string instruction operand.
* introduce a `zir.Decl` type for ZIR Module decls which holds
content_hash and name - fields that are not needed for `zir.Inst`
which are created as part of semantic analysis. This improves the
function signatures of Module.zig and lowers memory usage.
* the Str instruction is now defined to create an anonymous Decl and
reference it.
zig fmt previously would write a temp file, and then either rename it
into place if necessary, or unlink it if nothing was changed. Now zig
fmt renders into a memory buffer, and only writes the temp file and
renames it into place if anything changed.
Based on the performance testing I did this actually did not have much
of an impact, however it's likely that on other operating systems and
other hard drives this could make a big difference.
* `std.fs.Dir.Entry.Kind` is moved to `std.fs.File.Kind`
* `std.fs.File.Stat` gains the `kind` field, so performing a stat() on
a File now tells what kind of file it is. On Windows this only will
distinguish between directories and files.
* rework zig fmt logic so that in the case of opening a file and
discovering it to be a directory, it closes the file descriptor
before re-opening it with O_DIRECTORY, using fewer simultaneous open
file descriptors when walking a directory tree.
* rework zig fmt logic so that it pays attention to the kind of
directory entries, and when it sees a sub-directory it attempts to
open it as a directory rather than a file, reducing the number of
open() syscalls when walking a directory tree.
