Functions like isMinGW() and isGnuLibC() have a good reason to exist: They look
at multiple components of the target. But functions like isWasm(), isDarwin(),
isGnu(), etc only exist to save 4-8 characters. I don't think this is a good
enough reason to keep them, especially given that:
* It's not immediately obvious to a reader whether target.isDarwin() means the
same thing as target.os.tag.isDarwin() precisely because isMinGW() and similar
functions *do* look at multiple components.
* It's not clear where we would draw the line. The logical conclusion before
this commit would be to also wrap Arch.isX86(), Os.Tag.isSolarish(),
Abi.isOpenHarmony(), etc... this obviously quickly gets out of hand.
* It's nice to just have a single correct way of doing something.
* arm_apcs is the long dead "OABI" which we never had working support for.
* arm_aapcs16_vfp is for arm-watchos-none which is a dead target that we've
dropped support for.
This is all of the expected 0.14.0 progress on #21530, which can now be
postponed once this commit is merged.
This required rewriting the (un)wrap operations since the original
implementations were extremely buggy.
Also adds an easy way to retrigger Sema OPV bugs so that I don't have to
keep updating #22419 all the time.
I don't think these belong in std, at least not in their current form.
If someone wants to add these back I'd like to review the patch before
it lands.

Clearing the analysis roots was very clever and all, but not actually
valid. We need to avoid *any* reference to the analysis errors if there
were any fatal files, and that includes sorting the errors!
Resolves: #22774
Sometimes we emit runtime instructions in comptime scopes. These
instructions will be discarded, but they allow comptime blocks to
contain intermediate runtime-known values, which is necessary for
expressions like `runtime_array.len` to work.
Since we will always throw away these runtime instructions, including
safety checks is a time waste at best and trips an assertion at worst!
Resolves: #20064
This commit allows using ZON (Zig Object Notation) in a few ways.
* `@import` can be used to load ZON at comptime and convert it to a
normal Zig value. In this case, `@import` must have a result type.
* `std.zon.parse` can be used to parse ZON at runtime, akin to the
parsing logic in `std.json`.
* `std.zon.stringify` can be used to convert arbitrary data structures
to ZON at runtime, again akin to `std.json`.
This commit effectively reverts 9e683f0, and hence un-accepts #19777.
While nice in theory, this proposal turned out to have a few problems.
Firstly, supplying a result type implicitly coerces the operand to this
type -- that's the main point of result types! But for `try`, this is
actually a bad idea; we want a redundant `try` to be a compile error,
not to silently coerce the non-error value to an error union. In
practice, this didn't always happen, because the implementation was
buggy anyway; but when it did, it was really quite silly. For instance,
`try try ... try .{ ... }` was an accepted expression, with the inner
initializer being initially coerced to `E!E!...E!T`.
Secondly, the result type inference here didn't play nicely with
`return`. If you write `return try`, the operand would actually receive
a result type of `E!E!T`, since the `return` gave a result type of `E!T`
and the `try` wrapped it in *another* error union. More generally, the
problem here is that `try` doesn't know when it should or shouldn't
nest error unions. This occasionally broke code which looked like it
should work.
So, this commit prevents `try` from propagating result types through to
its operand. A key motivation for the original proposal here was decl
literals; so, as a special case, `try .foo(...)` is still an allowed
syntax form, caught by AstGen and specially lowered. This does open the
doors to allowing other special cases for decl literals in future, such
as `.foo(...) catch ...`, but those proposals are for another time.

This check isn't valid in such cases, because the source and destination
pointers both refer to zero bits of memory, meaning they effectively
never alias.
