* pad out (non-packed) struct fields when lowering to bytes to be
saved in the binary - prior to this change, fields would be
saved at non-aligned addresses leading to wrong accesses
* add a matching test case to `behavior/struct.zig` tests
* fix offset to field calculation in `struct_field_ptr` on `x86_64`
Clarify that `astgen.advanceSourceCursor` already increments absolute
values of the line and columns numbers; i.e., `GenZir.calcLine` is thus
not only obsolete but wrong by design.
Incidentally, this clean up allows for specifying the `FnDecl` line
numbers for DWARF use correctly as relative values with respect to
the start of the parent `Decl`. This `Decl` in turn has its line number
information specified relatively to its parent `Decl`, and so on, until
we reach the global scope.
This commit fixes two related things:
1. If the loop goes all the way through the slice without a match, on
the last iteration `mid == symbols.len - 1` which causes
`&symbols[mid + 1]` to be out of bounds. End one step before that
instead.
2. If the address we're looking for is greater than the address of the
last symbol in the slice, we now match it to that symbol. Previously,
we would miss this case since we only matched if the address was _in
between_ the address of two symbols.
which is the index of the key that already exists in the hash map.
This enables the use case of using `AutoArrayHashMap(void, void)` which
may seem surprising at first, but is actually pretty handy!
This commit includes a proof-of-concept of how I want to use it, with a
new InternArena abstraction for stage2 that provides a compact way to
store values (and types) in an "internment arena", thus making types
stored exactly once (per arena), representable with a single u32 as a
reference to a type within an InternArena, and comparable with a
simple u32 integer comparison. If both types are in the same
InternArena, you can check if they are equal by seeing if their index is
the same.
What's neat about `AutoArrayHashMap(void, void)` is that it allows us to
look up the indexes by key, *without actually storing the keys*.
Instead, keys are treated as ephemeral values that are constructed as
needed.
As a result, we have an extremely efficient encoding of types and
values, represented only by three arrays, which has no pointers, and can
therefore be serialized and deserialized by a single writev/readv call.
The `map` field is denormalized data and can be computed from the other
two fields.
This is in contrast to our current Type/Value system which makes
extensive use of pointers.
The test at the bottom of InternArena.zig passes in this commit.
I hit the "quotes in an RSP file" issue when trying to compile gRPC using
"zig cc". As a fun exercise, I decided to see if I could fix it myself.
I'm fully open to this code being flat-out rejected. Or I can take feedback
to fix it up.
This modifies (and renames) _ArgIteratorWindows_ in process.zig such that
it works with arbitrary strings (or the contents of an RSP file).
In main.zig, this new _ArgIteratorGeneral_ is used to address the "TODO"
listed in _ClangArgIterator_.
This change closes#4833.
**Pros:**
- It has the nice attribute of handling "RSP file" arguments in the same way it
handles "cmd_line" arguments.
- High Performance, minimal allocations
- Fixed bug in previous _ArgIteratorWindows_, where final trailing backslashes
in a command line were entirely dropped
- Added a test case for the above bug
- Harmonized the _ArgIteratorXxxx._initWithAllocator()_ and _next()_ interface
across Windows/Posix/Wasi (Moved Windows errors to _initWithAllocator()_
rather than _next()_)
- Likely perf benefit on Windows by doing _utf16leToUtf8AllocZ()_ only once
for the entire cmd_line
**Cons:**
- Breaking Change in std library on Windows: Call
_ArgIterator.initWithAllocator()_ instead of _ArgIterator.init()_
- PhaseMage is new with contributions to Zig, might need a lot of hand-holding
- PhaseMage is a Windows person, non-Windows stuff will need to be double-checked
**Testing Done:**
- Wrote a few new test cases in process.zig
- zig.exe build test -Dskip-release (no new failures seen)
- zig cc now builds gRPC without error

compiler_rt already provides __muloti4 but libc++ is also providing it and when linking libc++ it causes a crash on my windows x86_64 machine.
* comptime known 0 as a numerator returns comptime 0 independent of
denominator.
* negative numerator and denominator are allowed when the remainder is
zero because that means the modulus would be also zero.
* organize math behavior tests
