Use inline to vastly simplify the exposed API. This allows a
comptime-known endian parameter to be propogated, making extra functions
for a specific endianness completely unnecessary.
This reverts commit 0c99ba1eab, reversing
changes made to 5f92b070bf.
This caused a CI failure when it landed in master branch due to a
128-bit `@byteSwap` in std.mem.
Most of this migration was performed automatically with `zig fmt`. There
were a few exceptions which I had to manually fix:
* `@alignCast` and `@addrSpaceCast` cannot be automatically rewritten
* `@truncate`'s fixup is incorrect for vectors
* Test cases are not formatted, and their error locations change
As suggested by @leecannon, this provides more flexibility to the
`Random` interface. For exmaple, this allows for an implementation to
provide multiple different fill functions.
These changes have been made to resolve issue #10037. The `Random`
interface was implemented in such a way that causes significant slowdown
when calling the `fill` function of the rng used.
The `Random` interface is no longer stored in a field of the rng, and is
instead returned by the child function `random()` of the rng. This
avoids the performance issues caused by the interface.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
