This implementation tries to do the right thing (TM) by treating the
sign as part of the number itself, therefore the alignment parameter
applies to both the sign and the digits.
In other words the format string `{:>4}` with -1 as input will not
output `- 1` but ` -1`.
And let's default to right alignment for everything as that's what users
want, especially when printing numbers. Many implementations use
different defaults for numeric vs non-numeric types, let's strive for a
consistent behaviour here.
Speed up a little the slicing-by-8 code path by replacing the
(load+shift+xor)*4 sequence with a single u32 load plus a xor.
Before:
```
iterative: 1018 MiB/s [000000006c3b110d]
small keys: 1075 MiB/s [0035bf3dcac00000]
```
After:
```
iterative: 1114 MiB/s [000000006c3b110d]
small keys: 1324 MiB/s [0035bf3dcac00000]
```
It turns out that the kernel won't read or write more than 0x7fffffff
bytes in a single call, failing with EINVAL when trying to do so.
Adjust the limit and curse whoever is responsible for this.
Closes#6332
A profiler run showed that the main bottleneck was the naive decoding of
the Huffman codes, replacing it with a nice trick borrowed by Zlib gave
a substantial speedup.
Replacing a `%` with a `and (mask-1)` gave another significant
improvement (yay for low hanging fruits).
A few numbers obtained by decompressing a 22M file:
Before:
```
./decompress 2,39s user 0,00s system 99% cpu 2,400 total
```
After:
```
./decompress 0,79s user 0,00s system 99% cpu 0,798 total

This commit changes the behavior of stage1 to emit libfoo.so instead
of libfoo.so.0.0.0 when none of the --ver-major, --ver-minor, or
--ver-patch flags are set.
It also makes it possible to create unversioned shared libraries
using the zig build system, changing the version parameter of
addSharedLibrary() to a tagged union.
std.event.Loop does not yet work in single threaded builds. However,
using evented io on a single thread can be very convenient. This commit
allows settind @import("root").event_loop_mode to .single_threaded
in order to allow this without reimplementing the startup code in
start.zig
Fixes a bug where the last written load command would accidentally
override the beginning of the __text section. Also defines missing
MachO constants and relocation structs/enums.
