This implements the `field_ptr` value for pointers. As the value only provides us with the index, we must calculate the offset from the container type using said index. (i.e. the offset from a struct field at index 2). Besides this, small miscellaneous fixes/updates were done to get remaining behavior tests passing: - We start the function table index at 1, so unresolved function pointers don't can be null-checked properly. - Implement genTypedValue for floats up to f64. - Fix zero-sized arguments by only creating `args` for non-zero-sized types. - lowerConstant now works for all decl_ref's. - lowerConstant properly lowers optional pointers, so `null` pointers are lowered to `0`.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
