Previously, when lowering AIR instructions `wrap_errunion_payload`,
`wrap_errunion_err`, and `wrap_optional`, the LLVM backend would create
an alloca instruction to store the result, but did not set the alignment
on it. This caused UB which went undetected for a long time until we
started enabling the stack protector.

This reverts commit 8bf3e1f8d0902abd4133e2729b3625c25011c3ff, which
introduced miscompilations for peer expressions any time they needed
coercions to runtime types.
I opened #11957 as a proposal to accomplish the goal of the reverted
commit.
Closes#11898
* `?E` where E is an error set with only one field now lowers the same
as `bool`.
* Fix implementation of errUnionErrOffset and errUnionPayloadOffset to
properly compute the offset of each field. Also name them the same
as the corresponding LLVM functions and have the same function
signature, to avoid confusion. This fixes a bug where wasm was
passing the error union type instead of the payload type.
* Fix C backend handling of optionals with zero-bit payload types.
* C backend: separate out airOptionalPayload and airOptionalPayloadPtr
which reduces branching and cleans up control flow.
* Make Type.isNoReturn return true for error sets with no fields.
* Make `?error{}` have only one possible value (null).
* Sema: avoid unnecessary safety checks when an error set is empty.
* Sema: make zirErrorToInt handle comptime errors that are represented
as integers.
* Sema: make empty error sets properly integrate with
typeHasOnePossibleValue.
* Type: correct the ABI alignment and size of error unions which have
both zero-bit error set and zero-bit payload. The previous code did
not account for the fact that we still need to store a bit for
whether there is an error.
* LLVM: lower error unions possibly with the payload first or with the
error code first, depending on alignment. Previously it always put
the error code first and used a padding array.
* LLVM: lower functions which have an empty error set as the return
type the same as anyerror, so that they can be used where
fn()anyerror function pointers are expected. In such functions, Zig
will lower ret to returning zero instead of void.
As a result, one more behavior test is passing.
* Sema: store the precomputed monomorphed_funcs hash inside Module.Fn.
This is important because it may be accessed when resizing monomorphed_funcs
while this Fn has already been added to the set, but does not have the
owner_decl, comptime_args, or other fields populated yet.
* Sema: in `analyzeIsNonErr`, take advantage of the AIR tag being
`wrap_errunion_payload` to infer that `is_non_err` is comptime true
without performing any error set resolution.
- Also add some code to check for empty inferred error sets in this
function. If necessary we do resolve the inferred error set.
* Sema: queue full type resolution of payload type when
`wrap_errunion_payload` AIR instruction is emitted. This ensures the
backend may check the alignment of it.
* Sema: resolveTypeFully now additionally resolves comptime-only
status.
closes#11306
All tests have been manually verified which are now passing. This means that any remaining
TODO is an actual to-be-fixed or to-be-implemented test case.
This includes various fixes/improvements to the C backend to improve
error/union support. It also fixes up our handling of decls, where some
decls were not correctly marked alive.
Introduce `Module.ensureFuncBodyAnalyzed` and corresponding `Sema`
function. This mirrors `ensureDeclAnalyzed` except also waits until the
function body has been semantically analyzed, meaning that inferred
error sets will have been populated.
Resolving error sets can now emit a "unable to resolve inferred error
set" error instead of producing an incorrect error set type. Resolving
error sets now calls `ensureFuncBodyAnalyzed`. Closes#11046.
`coerceInMemoryAllowedErrorSets` now does a lot more work to avoid
resolving an inferred error set if possible. Same with
`wrapErrorUnionSet`.
Inferred error set types no longer check the `func` field to determine if
they are equal. That was incorrect because an inline or comptime function
call produces a unique error set which has the same `*Module.Fn` value for
this field. Instead we use the `*Module.Fn.InferredErrorSet` pointers to
test equality of inferred error sets.
* Reduce branching in Type.eql and Type.hash for error sets.
* `Type.eql` uses element-wise bytes comparison since it can rely on
the error sets being pre-sorted.
* Avoid unnecessarily skipping tests that are passing.
This implements type equality for error sets. This is done
through element-wise error set comparison.
Inferred error sets are always distinct types and other error sets are
always sorted. See #11022.
The checks detecting such no-op branches (essentially instructions
that branch to the instruction immediately following the branch) were
tightened to catch more of these occurrences.
* Fix compile error for `zirErrorUnionType`.
* Convert zirMergeErrorSets logic to call `Type.errorSetMerge`.
It does not need to create a Decl as the TODO comment hinted.
* Extract out a function called `resolveInferredErrorSetTy`.
* Rework `resolvePeerTypes` with respect to error unions and
error sets. This is a less complex implementation that passes all the
same tests and uses many fewer lines of code by taking advantage of
the function `coerceInMemoryAllowedErrorSets`.
- Always merge error sets in the order that makes sense, even when
that means `@typeInfo` incompatibility with stage1.
* `Type.errorSetMerge` no longer overallocates.
* Don't skip passing tests.
