* docgen supports obj_err code kind for demonstrating
errors without explicit test cases
* add documentation for `extern enum`. See #367
* remove coldcc keyword and add @setIsCold. See #661
* add compile errors for non-extern struct, enum, unions
in function signatures
* add .h file generation for extern struct, enum, unions
* error return tracing is disabled in release-fast mode
* add @errorReturnTrace
* zig build API changes build return type from `void` to `%void`
* allow `void`, `noreturn`, and `u8` from main. closes#535
closes#672
the crash and compile errors are fixed but structs
inside functions still get named after the functions
they're in. this will be fixed later.
Before:
* IR basic blocks are in arbitrary order
* when doing an IR pass, when a block is encountered, code
must look at all the instructions in the old basic block,
determine what blocks are referenced, and queue up those
old basic blocks first.
* This had a bug (See #667)
Now:
* IR basic blocks are required to be in an order that guarantees
they will be referenced by a branch, before any instructions
within are referenced.
ir pass1 is updated to meet this constraint.
* When doing an IR pass, we iterate over old basic blocks
in the order they appear. Blocks which have not been
referenced are discarded.
* After the pass is complete, we must iterate again to look
for old basic blocks which now point to incomplete new
basic blocks, due to comptime code generation.
* This last part can probably be optimized - most of the time
we don't need to iterate over the basic block again.

...field to const slice parameter
we use a packed struct internally to represent a const array
of disparate union values, and needed to update the internal
getelementptr instruction to recognize that.

regression: translate-c can no longer translate switch statements.
after #629 we can ressurect and modify the code to utilize arbitrarily
returning from blocks.
* add @noInlineCall - see #640
This fixes a crash in --release-safe and --release-fast modes
where the optimizer inlines everything into _start and
clobbers the command line argument data.
If we were able to verify that the user's code never reads
command line args, we could leave off this "no inline"
attribute.
* add i29 and u29 primitive types. u29 is the type of alignment,
so it makes sense to be a primitive.
probably in the future we'll make any `i` or `u` followed by
digits into a primitive.
* add `aligned` functions to Allocator interface
* add `os.argsAlloc` and `os.argsFree` so that you can get
a `[]const []u8`, do whatever arg parsing you want, and then free
it. For now this uses the other API under the hood, but it could
be reimplemented to do a single allocation.
* add tests to make sure command line argument parsing works.
