Rather than having the endian-suffixed functions be the preferred ones
the unsuffixed ones are the preferred ones and the tricky functions get
a special suffix.
Makes packed structs read and written the same as integers.
closes#12960
Add an additional check before emitting `.loop_switch_br` instead
of `.switch_br` in a tagged switch statement for whether any of the
continues referencing its tag are actually runtime reachable.
This fixes triggering an assertion in Liveness caused by the invalid
assumption that every tagged switch must be a loop if its tag is
referenced in any way even if this reference is not runtime reachable.
Basically everything that has a direct replacement or no uses left.
Notable omissions:
- std.ArrayHashMap: Too much fallout, needs a separate cleanup.
- std.debug.runtime_safety: Too much fallout.
- std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator: Lots of references to it remain, not
a simple find and replace as "debug allocator" is not equivalent to
"general purpose allocator".
- std.io.Reader: Is being reworked at the moment.
- std.unicode.utf8Decode(): No replacement, needs a new API first.
- Manifest backwards compat options: Removal would break test data used
by TestFetchBuilder.
- panic handler needs to be a namespace: Many tests still rely on it
being a function, needs a separate cleanup.
Apparently raw LLVM IR Bitcode files ("Bitstreams") may appear in
archives with LTO enabled. I observed this in the wild on
Chimera Linux.
I'm not yet sure if it's in scope for Zig to support these special
archives, but we should at least give a correct error message.
Alignment and fill options only apply to numbers.
Rework the implementation to mainly branch on the format string rather
than the type information. This is more straightforward to maintain and
more straightforward for comptime evaluation.
Enums support being printed as decimal, hexadecimal, octal, and binary.
`formatInteger` is another possible format method that is
unconditionally called when the value type is struct and one of the
integer-printing format specifiers are used.
