I recently saw a user hit the "comptime call of extern function" error,
and get confused because they didn't know why the scope was `comptime`.
So, use `explainWhyBlockIsComptime` on this and related errors to add
all the relevant notes.
The added test case shows the motivating situation.
Turns out this was already fixed in #21964.
I have no idea why GitHub showed an incorrect diff in #21273, or how applying the diff to master was even possible, but here we are.
* `std.builtin.Panic` -> `std.builtin.panic`, because it is a namespace.
* `root.Panic` -> `root.panic` for the same reason. There are type
checks so that we still allow the legacy `pub fn panic` strategy in
the 0.14.0 release.
* `std.debug.SimplePanic` -> `std.debug.simple_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.NoPanic` -> `std.debug.no_panic`, same reason.
* `std.debug.FormattedPanic` is now a function `std.debug.FullPanic`
which takes as input a `panicFn` and returns a namespace with all the
panic functions. This handles the incredibly common case of just
wanting to override how the message is printed, whilst keeping nice
formatted panics.
* Remove `std.builtin.panic.messages`; now, every safety panic has its
own function. This reduces binary bloat, as calls to these functions
no longer need to prepare any arguments (aside from the error return
trace).
* Remove some legacy declarations, since a zig1.wasm update has
happened. Most of these were related to the panic handler, but a quick
grep for "zig1" brought up a couple more results too.
Also, add some missing type checks to Sema.
Resolves: #22584

When using the self-hosted backends, especially in incremental mode, the
.eh_frame_hdr section may be incomplete, so we can't treat it as authoritative.
Instead, if we started out intending to use .eh_frame_hdr but find that it's
incomplete, load .eh_frame/.debug_frame on demand and use that info going
forward.
This will mainly be used when targeting our wasm2c implementation which has no
problem with zero-length bulk memory operations, as a non-standard extension.
I think it would be better if this invisible doc comments is top-level
doc comments rather than doc comments. Because it is at the start of a
source file. This makes the doc comments visible.
However, the last paragraph replaces doc comments with normal comments.
This is because I thought that normal comments would be more
appropriate than top-level doc comments given the context of the last
paragraph.

It's now unnecessary to explicitly pass this, because it receives an
implicit error trace parameter anyway, so can just use
`@errorReturnTrace()`. The previous commit updated Sema to expect this
new interface. This saves an AIR instruction at all `returnError` call
sites.
Acts as a replacement for `addSharedLibrary` and `addStaticLibrary`, but
linking mode can be changed more easily in build.zig, for example:
In library:
```zig
const linkage = b.option(std.builtin.LinkMode, "linkage", "Link mode for a foo_bar library") orelse .static; // or other default
const lib = b.addLibrary(.{
.linkage = linkage,
.name = "foo_bar",
.root_module = mod,
});
```
In consumer:
```zig
const dep_foo_bar = b.dependency("foo_bar", .{
.target = target,
.optimize = optimize,
.linkage = .static // or dynamic
});
mod.linkLibrary(dep_foor_bar.artifact("foo_bar"));
```
It also matches nicely with `linkLibrary` name.

This is not *quite* using the same features as the spec'd lime1 model because
LLVM 19 doesn't have the level of feature granularity that we need for that.
This will be fixed once we upgrade to LLVM 20.
Part of #21818.
As discussed in #21818, generic is a poor baseline model because that model is a
moving target in LLVM. Instead, use mvp, which has no features enabled.
