* introduce LazyPath.cwd_relative variant and use it for --zig-lib-dir. closes#12685
* move overrideZigLibDir and setMainPkgPath to options fields set once
and then never mutated.
* avoid introducing Build/util.zig
* use doc comments for deprecation notices so that they show up in
generated documentation.
* introduce InstallArtifact.Options, accept it as a parameter to
addInstallArtifact, and move override_dest_dir into it. Instead of
configuring the installation via Compile step, configure the
installation via the InstallArtifact step. In retrospect this is
obvious.
* remove calls to pushInstalledFile in InstallArtifact. See #14943
* rewrite InstallArtifact to not incorrectly observe whether a Compile
step has any generated outputs. InstallArtifact is meant to trigger
output generation.
* fix child process evaluation code handling of `-fno-emit-bin`.
* don't store out_h_filename, out_ll_filename, etc., pointlessly. these
are all just simple extensions appended to the root name.
* make emit_directory optional. It's possible to have nothing outputted,
for example, if you're just type-checking.
* avoid passing -femit-foo/-fno-emit-foo when it is the default
* rename ConfigHeader.getTemplate to getOutput
* deprecate addOptionArtifact
* update the random number seed of Options step caching.
* avoid using `inline for` pointlessly
* avoid using `override_Dest_dir` pointlessly
* avoid emitting an executable pointlessly in test cases
Removes forceBuild and forceEmit. Let's consider these additions separately.
Nearly all of the usage sites were suspicious.
This change allows the following types to appear in extern structs:
* Zero-bit integers
* void
* zero-sized structs and packed structs
* enums with zero-bit backing integers
* arrays of any length with zero-size elements
When acessing a packed struct member via a byte aligned ptr (from the optimisation in Sema.structFieldPtrByIndex())
the codegen must apply the parent ptr packed_offset in addition to the field offset itself.

Before, iteration would stop whenever an installation with vcruntime.lib was found, but that may not be the most recent installed version. Instead, we now iterate all installed instances and choose the one with the newest version.
This mirrors the behavior of the progress indicator for the actual
compilation. Not doing this was causing sporadic CI failures due to the
(non-existent) fetches taking long enough to appear in stderr.
The C++ version of this code used this logic, and it turns out it is able to find some setups that the current registry/Vs7 methods cannot.
For example, if only the "Build Tools for Visual Studio" are installed but not Visual Studio itself, then only the ISetupEnumInstances method seems to find it.
Follow up to #15657, fixes a regression caused by moving from the C++ version to the Zig version
