* `-isystem` instead of `-I` for system include directories
fixes a problem with native system directories interfering with zig's
bundled libc.
* separate Stage2Target.is_native into Stage2Target.is_native_os and
Stage2Target.is_native_cpu.
* `std.Buffer.print` is removed; use `buffer.outStream().print`
* `std.fmt.count` returns a `u64`
* `std.Fifo.print` is removed; use `fifo.outStream().print`
* `std.fmt.bufPrint` error is renamed from `BufferTooSmall`
to `NoSpaceLeft` to match `std.os.write`.
* `std.io.FixedBufferStream.getWritten` returns mutable buffer
if the buffer is mutable.
Zig now supports a more fine-grained sense of what is native and what is
not. Some examples:
This is now allowed:
-target native
Different OS but native CPU, default Windows C ABI:
-target native-windows
This could be useful for example when running in Wine.
Different CPU but native OS, native C ABI.
-target x86_64-native -mcpu=skylake
Different C ABI but otherwise native target:
-target native-native-musl
-target native-native-gnu
Lots of breaking changes to related std lib APIs.
Calls to getOs() will need to be changed to getOsTag().
Calls to getArch() will need to be changed to getCpuArch().
Usage of Target.Cross and Target.Native need to be updated to use
CrossTarget API.
`std.build.Builder.standardTargetOptions` is changed to accept its
parameters as a struct with default values. It now has the ability to
specify a whitelist of targets allowed, as well as the default target.
Rather than two different ways of collecting the target, it's now always
a string that is validated, and prints helpful diagnostics for invalid
targets. This feature should now be actually useful, and contributions
welcome to further improve the user experience.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTheTarget` is removed.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTarget` is updated to take a CrossTarget
parameter.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTargetGLibC` is removed. glibc versions are
handled in the CrossTarget API and can be specified with the `-target`
triple.
`std.builtin.Version` gains a `format` method.
