AstGen had the then-else logic backwards for if expressions
on error unions. This commit fixes it.
Turns out AstGen only really needs `is_non_null` and `is_non_err`,
and does not need the `is_null` or `is_err` variants. So I removed the
`is_null{,_ptr}` and `is_err{,_ptr}` ZIR instructions (-4) and
added `is_non_err`, `is_non_err_ptr` ZIR instructions (+2) for
a total of (-2) ZIR instructions, giving us a tiny bit more headroom
within the 256 tag limit. This required swapping the order of
then/else blocks in a handful of cases, but ultimately means the
ZIR will be in the same as source order, which is convenient
when debugging.
AIR code on the other hand, gains the `is_non_err` and `is_non_err_ptr`
instructions.
Sema: fix logic in zirErrUnionCode and zirErrUnionCodePtr returning the
wrong result type.

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.
