Use std.heap.FixedBufferAllocator combined with
std.heap.DirectAllocator instead.
std.mem.FixedBufferAllocator is moved to std.heap.FixedBufferAllocator
* 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
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.
* error return tracing is disabled in release-fast mode
* add @errorReturnTrace
* zig build API changes build return type from `void` to `%void`
* allow `void`, `noreturn`, and `u8` from main. closes#535
...field to const slice parameter
we use a packed struct internally to represent a const array
of disparate union values, and needed to update the internal
getelementptr instruction to recognize that.
