* bitreverse - give bswap behavior
* bitreverse, comptime_ints, negative values still not working?
* bitreverse working for negative comptime ints
* Finished bitreverse test cases
* Undo exporting a bigint function. @bitreverse test name includes ampersand
* added docs entry for @bitreverse
* 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

* added mem.littleToNative
* added mem.bigToNative
* added mem.toNative
* added mem.nativeTo
* added mem.nativeToLittle
* added mem.nativeToBig
* codegen: LLVMConstInlineAsm is deprecated.
* codegen: replace commas in asm constraint strings by pipes as required by LLVM.
* ir: enforce usage of '=' constraint modifier for inline assembly outputs.
Others are not currently supported and this was just asserted alter in `ir_render_asm`.
* asm: forbid comptime_int/floats as inputs in favor of explicitely sized constants.
Fixes a crash due to comptime_int/floats having no type_ref.
* asm: handle inputs with integers of <8 or non power of 2 bitsize.
We widen them to the next highest power of two.
* introduce --disable-pic option which can generally be allowed to be
the default. compiler_rt.a and builtin.a get this option when you
build a static executable.
* compiler_rt and builtin libraries are not built for build-lib
--static
* posix_spawn instead of fork/execv
* disable the error limit on LLD. Fixes the blank lines printed
We were caching the ConstExprValue of string literals,
which works if you can never modify ConstExprValues.
This premise is broken with `comptime var ...`.
So I implemented an optimization in ConstExprValue
arrays, where it stores a `Buf *` directly rather
than an array of ConstExprValues for the elements,
and then similar to array of undefined, it is
expanded into the canonical form when necessary.
However many operations can happen directly on the
`Buf *`, which is faster.
Furthermore, before a ConstExprValue array is expanded
into canonical form, it removes itself from the string
literal cache. This fixes the issue, because before an
array element is modified it would have to be expanded.

we need somewhere to put .o files and leave them while the user
executes their program, so that stack traces on MacOS can find
the .o files and get at the DWARF info.
if we try to clean up old global tmp dir files, first of all that's
a hard and complicated problem, and secondly it's not clear how
that is better than dumping the .o file inside zig-cache locally.
closes#1381
The union was generated as a 3 byte struct when it needed to be
4 bytes so that the packed struct bitcast could work correctly.
Now it recognizes this situation and adds padding bytes to become
the correct size so that it can fit into an array.
* add almost all the input parameter state to the hash
- missing items are the detected MSVC installation on Windows
and detected libc installation on POSIX
- also missing are C files and .h files that libclang finds
* artifacts are created in global cache directory instead of
zig-cache.
- exception: builtin.zig is still in zig-cache
* zig run uses the new cache correctly
* zig run uses execv on posix systems
