Split reading/parsing tar file and writing results to the disk in two
separate steps. So we can later test parsing part without need to write
everyting to the disk.
zig fetch [options] <url>
zig fetch [options] <path>
Fetches a package which is found at <url> or <path> into the global
cache directory, printing the package hash to stdout.
Closes#16972
Related to #14280
Additionally, this commit:
* Adds uncompressed .tar support to package fetching
* Introduces symlink support to package fetching
Handles .extended_header type to parse PAX attributes and check if they override
the path of the next file. Increases file path limit to std.fs.MAX_PATH_BYTES.
Fixes#15342
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
Anecdote 1: The generic version is way more popular than the non-generic
one in Zig codebase:
git grep -w alignForward | wc -l
56
git grep -w alignForwardGeneric | wc -l
149
git grep -w alignBackward | wc -l
6
git grep -w alignBackwardGeneric | wc -l
15
Anecdote 2: In my project (turbonss) that does much arithmetic and
alignment I exclusively use the Generic functions.
Anecdote 3: we used only the Generic versions in the Macho Man's linker
workshop.
Unfortunately, due to the Windows equivalent of executable permissions
being a bit tricky, there is follow-up work to be done.
What is done in this commit is the hash modifications. At the fetch
layer, executable bits inside packages are ignored. In the hash
computation layer, executable bit is implemented for POSIX but not yet
for Windows. This means that the hash will not break again in the future
for packages that do not have any executable files, but it will break
for packages that do.
This is a hash-breaking change.
Closes#14308
