This rather large commit adds/fixes missing WASI functionality
in `libstd` needed to pass the `libstd` tests. As such, now by
default tests targeting `wasm32-wasi` target are enabled in
`test/tests.zig` module. However, they can be disabled by passing
the `-Dskip-wasi=true` flag when invoking the `zig build test`
command. When the flag is set to `false`, i.e., when WASI tests are
included, `wasmtime` with `--dir=.` is used as the default testing
command.
Since the majority of `libstd` tests were relying on `fs.cwd()`
call to get current working directory handle wrapped in `Dir`
struct, in order to make the tests WASI-friendly, `fs.cwd()`
call was replaced with `testing.getTestDir()` function which
resolved to either `fs.cwd()` for non-WASI targets, or tries to
fetch the preopen list from the WASI runtime and extract a
preopen for '.' path.
The summary of changes introduced by this commit:
* implement `Dir.makeDir` and `Dir.openDir` targeting WASI
* implement `Dir.deleteFile` and `Dir.deleteDir` targeting WASI
* fix `os.close` and map errors in `unlinkat`
* move WASI-specific `mkdirat` and `unlinkat` from `std.fs.wasi`
to `std.os` module
* implement `lseek_{SET, CUR, END}` targeting WASI
* implement `futimens` targeting WASI
* implement `ftruncate` targeting WASI
* implement `readv`, `writev`, `pread{v}`, `pwrite{v}` targeting WASI
* make sure ANSI escape codes are _not_ used in stderr or stdout
in WASI, as WASI always sanitizes stderr, and sanitizes stdout if
fd is a TTY
* fix specifying WASI rights when opening/creating files/dirs
* tweak `AtomicFile` to be WASI-compatible
* implement `os.renameatWasi` for WASI-compliant `os.renameat` function
* implement sleep() targeting WASI
* fix `process.getEnvMap` targeting WASI
After this commit there are no more bit rotted files.
The testing program that was in ir.zig has been moved to main.zig
Unsupported command line options have been deleted, or error messages
added.
The compiler repl is available from the build-exe, build-lib,
build-obj commands with the --watch option.
The main zig build script now builds the self-hosted compiler
unconditionally. Linking against LLVM is behind a -Denable-llvm
flag that defaults to off.
Rather than stuffing configuration information into the Zig binary, the
build script reads it from config.h. This solves a problem for package
maintainers and improves the use case of deterministic builds.

The self-hosted compiler is still bit rotted and still not compiling
successfully yet. I have a more serious rework of the code in a
different branch.
Zig now supports a more fine-grained sense of what is native and what is
not. Some examples:
This is now allowed:
-target native
Different OS but native CPU, default Windows C ABI:
-target native-windows
This could be useful for example when running in Wine.
Different CPU but native OS, native C ABI.
-target x86_64-native -mcpu=skylake
Different C ABI but otherwise native target:
-target native-native-musl
-target native-native-gnu
Lots of breaking changes to related std lib APIs.
Calls to getOs() will need to be changed to getOsTag().
Calls to getArch() will need to be changed to getCpuArch().
Usage of Target.Cross and Target.Native need to be updated to use
CrossTarget API.
`std.build.Builder.standardTargetOptions` is changed to accept its
parameters as a struct with default values. It now has the ability to
specify a whitelist of targets allowed, as well as the default target.
Rather than two different ways of collecting the target, it's now always
a string that is validated, and prints helpful diagnostics for invalid
targets. This feature should now be actually useful, and contributions
welcome to further improve the user experience.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTheTarget` is removed.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTarget` is updated to take a CrossTarget
parameter.
`std.build.LibExeObjStep.setTargetGLibC` is removed. glibc versions are
handled in the CrossTarget API and can be specified with the `-target`
triple.
`std.builtin.Version` gains a `format` method.
Rather than `zig0 build ...` the build now does
`zig0 build-lib ...`, avoiding the requirement of linking the build
script, and thus avoiding the requirement of finding native libc,
for systems where libc is the system ABI.
* libc_installation.cpp is deleted.
src-self-hosted/libc_installation.zig is now used for both stage1 and
stage2 compilers.
* (breaking) move `std.fs.File.access` to `std.fs.Dir.access`. The API
now encourages use with an open directory handle.
* Add `std.os.faccessat` and related functions.
* Deprecate the "C" suffix naming convention for null-terminated
parameters. "C" should be used when it is related to libc. However
null-terminated parameters often have to do with the native system
ABI rather than libc. "Z" suffix is the new convention. For example,
`std.os.openC` is deprecated in favor of `std.os.openZ`.
* Add `std.mem.dupeZ` for using an allocator to copy memory and add a
null terminator.
* Remove dead struct field `std.ChildProcess.llnode`.
* Introduce `std.event.Batch`. This API allows expressing concurrency
without forcing code to be async. It requires no Allocator and does
not introduce any failure conditions. However it is not thread-safe.
* There is now an ongoing experiment to transition away from
`std.event.Group` in favor of `std.event.Batch`.
* `std.os.execvpeC` calls `getenvZ` rather than `getenv`. This is
slightly more efficient on most systems, and works around a
limitation of `getenv` lack of integration with libc.
* (breaking) `std.os.AccessError` gains `FileBusy`, `SymLinkLoop`, and
`ReadOnlyFileSystem`. Previously these error codes were all reported
as `PermissionDenied`.
* Add `std.Target.isDragonFlyBSD`.
* stage2: access to the windows_sdk functions is done with a manually
maintained .zig binding file instead of `@cImport`.
* Update src-self-hosted/libc_installation.zig with all the
improvements that stage1 has seen to src/libc_installation.cpp until
now. In addition, it now takes advantage of Batch so that evented I/O
mode takes advantage of concurrency, but it still works in blocking
I/O mode, which is how it is used in stage1.
1. behavior tests with --test-evented-io
2. std lib tests with --test-evented-io
3. fuzz test evented I/O a bit, make it robust
4. make sure it works on all platforms (kqueue, Windows IOCP,
epoll/other)
5. restart efforts on self-hosted
* Implements #3768. This is a sweeping breaking change that requires
many (trivial) edits to Zig source code. Array values no longer
coerced to slices; however one may use `&` to obtain a reference to
an array value, which may then be coerced to a slice.
* Adds `IrInstruction::dump`, for debugging purposes. It's useful to
call to inspect the instruction when debugging Zig IR.
* Fixes bugs with result location semantics. See the new behavior test
cases, and compile error test cases.
* Fixes bugs with `@typeInfo` not properly resolving const values.
* Behavior tests are passing but std lib tests are not yet. There
is more work to do before merging this branch.
we don't really have a way to determine whether the stage1
zig compiler requires PIC so to be safe we always enable it
when building libuserland.
fixes build on some configurations of alpine linux.
* add zig build option `-Dskip-libc` to skip tests that build libc
(e.g. if you don't want to wait for musl to build)
* add `-Denable-wine` option which uses wine to run cross compiled
windows tests on non-windows hosts
* add `-Denable-qemu` option which uses qemu to run cross compiled
foreign architecture tests
* add `-Denable-foreign-glibc=path` option which combined with
`-Denable-qemu` enables running cross compiled tests that link
against glibc. See
https://github.com/ziglang/zig/wiki/Updating-libc#glibc for how to
produce this directory.
* the test matrix is done manually. release test builds are only
enabled by default for the native target. this should save us some CI
time, while still providing decent coverage of release builds.

* enable qemu testing on the Linux CI job. There's not really a good
reason to enable wine, since we have a Windows CI job as well.
* remove the no longer needed `--build-file ../build.zig` from CI
scripts
* fix bug in glibc compilation where it wasn't properly reading the abi
list txt files, resulting in "key not found" error.
* std.build.Target gains:
- isNetBSD
- isLinux
- osRequiresLibC
- getArchPtrBitWidth
- getExternalExecutor
* zig build system gains support for enabling wine and enabling qemu.
`artifact.enable_wine = true;`, `artifact.enable_qemu = true;`. This
communicates that the system has these tools installed and the build
system will use them to run tests.
* zig build system gains support for overriding the dynamic linker of
an executable artifact.
* fix std.c.lseek prototype. makes behavior tests for
arm-linux-musleabihf pass.
* disable std lib tests that are failing on ARM. See #3288, #3289
* provide `std.os.off_t`.
* disable some of the compiler_rt symbols for arm 32 bit. Fixes
compiler_rt tests for arm 32 bit
* add __stack_chk_guard when linking against glibc. Fixes std lib tests
for aarch64-linux-gnu
* workaround for "unable to inline function" using `@inlineCall`. Fixes
compiler_rt tests for arm 32 bit.
`zig build test-compare-panic`
Create basic tests to compare panic output. The address field
is replaced by a symbolic constant and each expected output is
specific to os. Tests will only run for explicitly defined
platforms.
