* The generated options data file is sorted now in a way that
makes sure longer prefixes are first. This prevents collisions
with some parameters.
* Add support for `-fPIC`, `-fno-PIC`, `-nostdlib`, `-shared`,
`-rdynamic`, `-Wl,-soname`, `-Wl,-rpath`
* Better support for `-o`.
* Disable generating h files
* Shared library support.
* Better positional argument support.
because it uncovered a result location bug, and I need to get this
branch merged before going into a result location rabbit hole.
also fix the result type of slicing when the indexes are runtime known
and the result should be sentinel terminated.
* Don't add an extra slot for the sentinel. Most of the code keeps using
the constant value from the type descriptor, let's harmonize all the
code dealing with sentinels.
* Properly write out sentinel values when reinterpreting pointers at
comptime.
* Allow the reading of the 0th element in a `[0:S]T` type.
* Underscores `_` may be placed between two digits in a int/float literal
* Consecutive underscores are not allowed
* Fixed parsing bug in exponents of hexadecimal float literals.
Exponents should always be base 10, but hex characters would be parsed
inside the exponent and everything after them would be ignored. eg:
`0x1.0p1ab1` would be parsed as `0x1.0p1`.
When building an object file from only one source file, instead of
having a two-stage cache system, we special case it and use the cache
directory that the .o file is output to as the final cache directory for
all the build artifacts.
When there are more than 1 source file, the linker has to merge objects
into one, and so the two stage approach makes sens. But in the case of
only one source file, this prevents needlessly copying the object file.
This commit fixes an issue with the previous one, where zig with cache
enabled would print a directory that actually did not have any build
artifacts in it.
