When there are no format parameters, it simply calls `writeAll`. This
has the effect of no longer emitting a compile error for using `{}` and
not having any parameters, however, at this point in the development
process of Zig I think that tradeoff is worthwhile.
On the other hand, it might be OK to simply define formatting to work
this way. It's a common pattern to use the formatting function's format
string `"like this", .{}` instead of `"{}", .{"like this"}`, which can
lead to accidentally putting control characters in the formatting
string, however, with this change that works just fine.

Building from Source
Note that you can download a binary of master branch.
Stage 1: Build Zig from C++ Source Code
Dependencies
POSIX
- cmake >= 2.8.5
- gcc >= 5.0.0 or clang >= 3.6.0
- LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 10.x, compiled with the same gcc or clang version above
- Use the system package manager, or build from source.
Windows
- cmake >= 3.15.3
- Microsoft Visual Studio. Supported versions:
- 2015 (version 14)
- 2017 (version 15.8)
- 2019 (version 16)
- LLVM, Clang, LLD development libraries == 10.x
- Use the pre-built binaries or build from source.
Instructions
POSIX
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make install

MacOS
brew install cmake llvm
brew outdated llvm || brew upgrade llvm
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$(brew --prefix llvm)
make install
You will now run into this issue:
homebrew and llvm 10 packages in apt.llvm.org are broken with undefined reference to getPollyPluginInfo
or
error: unable to create target: 'Unable to find target for this triple (no targets are registered)',
in which case try -DZIG_WORKAROUND_4799=ON
Hopefully this will be fixed upstream with LLVM 10.0.1.
Windows
