* also fix extern variables with initialiaztion values to generate runtime code
* remove the workaround in example/shared_library/mathtest.zig
* introduce the ability for global variables to have Weak and LinkOnce
linkage
* fix `@export` to work for non-functions. this code needs to be
audited though.
* fix comptime ptrcast not keeping bigger alignment
* fix linker warnings when targeting darwin

Mostly picking the same paths as FreeBSD.
We need a little special handling for crt files, as netbsd uses its
own (and not GCC's) for those, with slightly different names.
this adds the prototype of panic to @import("builtin")
and then uses it to do an implicit cast of the panic
function to this prototype, rather than redoing all the
implicit cast logic.

This deletes some legacy cruft, and produces leaner object files.
Example:
```
var x: i32 = 1234;
export fn entry() i32 {
return x;
}
```
This produces:
```
@x = internal unnamed_addr global i32 1234, align 4
@0 = internal unnamed_addr constant i32* @x, align 8
```
and @0 is never even used. After this commit, @0 is not produced.
This fixes a bug: Zig was creating invalid LLVM IR when one of these
globals that shouldn't exist takes the address of a thread local
variable. In LLVM 8.0.0rc2, it would produce a linker error. But
probably after my bug report is solved it will be caught by the IR
verifier.

this would work if @llvm.sadd.with.overflow supported
vectors, which it does in trunk. but it does not support
them in llvm 7 or even in llvm 8 release branch.
so the next commit after this will have to do a different
strategy, but when llvm 9 comes out it may be worth coming
back to this one.
this should actually improve CI times a bit too
See the description at the top of std/os/startup.zig (deleted in this
commit) for a more detailed understanding of what this commit does.

This adds another boolean to the test matrix; hopefully it does not
inflate the time too much.
std.event.Loop does not work with this option yet. See #1908
This commit contains everything from the copy-elision-2
branch that does not have to do with copy elision directly,
but is generally useful for master branch.
* All const values know their parents, when applicable, not
just structs and unions.
* Null pointers in const values are represented explicitly,
rather than as a HardCodedAddr value of 0.
* Rename "maybe" to "optional" in various code locations.
* Separate DeclVarSrc and DeclVarGen
* Separate PtrCastSrc and PtrCastGen
* Separate CmpxchgSrc and CmpxchgGen
* Represent optional error set as an integer, using the 0 value.
In a const value, it uses nullptr.
* Introduce type_has_one_possible_value and use it where applicable.
* Fix debug builds not setting memory to 0xaa when storing
undefined.
* Separate the type of a variable from the const value of a variable.
* Use copy_const_val where appropriate.
* Rearrange structs to pack data more efficiently.
* Move test/cases/* to test/behavior/*
* Use `std.debug.assertOrPanic` in behavior tests instead of
`std.debug.assert`.
* Fix outdated slice syntax in docs.
* 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

* 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.
