before, when we initialized a variable by copying the
initialization value, it made the internal const value
references point to a duplicate value, resulting in
a phony duplicate global value being updated instead of
the real on. now the behavior is as expected.
thanks to hoppetosse for pointing out this bug on IRC.
if and switch are implicitly inline if the condition/target
expression is known at compile time.
instead of:
```
inline if (condition) ...
inline switch (target) ...
```
one can use:
```
if (comptime condition) ...
switch (comptime target) ...
```
* comptime expression is a block expression as it should be
* fix var args when number of args passed is 0
* implement const value equality for structs
* fix indent when rendering container decl AST
* IR: prevent duplicate generation of code when it is partially
compile-time evaluated
* implement compile time struct field pointer evaluation
* fix compile time evaluation of slicing
* Rip out legacy code for generics
* put scope in instruction instead of AST nodes
* separate top level decl stuff from AST nodes
- remove the assumption that there is a 1:1 correspondence
between an output instruction and an AST node
- This way we won't have to clone AST nodes for generics.
* add `setFnTest`, `setFnVisible`, `setFnStaticEval`,
`setFnNoInline` builtin functions to replace previous
directive functionality
* add `coldcc` and `nakedcc` as keywords which can be used as part
of a function prototype.
* `setDebugSafety` builtin can be used to set debug safety features
at a per block scope level.
* closes#169
This replaces the current generic syntax for functions and replaces
it with the concept of inline parameters.
This paves the way for the "all structs anonymous" proposal.
Closes#151.
