dad6039092 std.Build: support running build artifacts from packages
Deprecate CompileStep.run. The problem with this function is that it
does the RunStep with the same build.zig context as the CompileStep, but
this is not desirable when running an executable that is provided by a
dependency package. Instead, users should use `b.addRunArtifact`.
This has the additional benefit of conforming to the existing naming
conventions.

Additionally, support enum literals in config header options values.

b29e3fa2cd std.Build: enhancements to ConfigHeaderStep
Breaking API change to std.Build.addConfigHeader. It now uses an options
struct.

Introduce std.Build.CompileStep.installConfigHeader which also accepts
an options struct. This is used to add a generated config file into the
set of installed header files for a particular compilation artifact.

std.Build.ConfigHeaderStep now additionally supports a "blank" style
where a header is generated from scratch. It no longer exposes
`output_dir`. Instead it exposes a FileSource via `output_file`.
It now additionally accepts an `include_path` option which affects the
include path of CompileStep when using the `#include` directive, as well
as affecting the default installation subdirectory for header
installation purposes.

The hash used for the directory to store the generated config file now
includes the contents of the generated file. This fixes possible race
conditions when generating multiple header files simultaneously.

The values hash table is now an array hash map, to preserve order for
the "blank" use case.

I also took the opportunity to remove output_dir from TranslateCStep and
WriteFileStep. This is technically a breaking change, but it was always
naughty to access these fields.

b04e48566c std.build: support for generated c headers
Add ability to generate a c header file from scratch, and then both
compile with it and install it if needed.

Example:
```zig
    const avconfig_h = b.addConfigHeader(.{ .path = "libavutil/avconfig.h" }, .generated, .{
        .AV_HAVE_BIGENDIAN = 0, // TODO: detect based on target
        .AV_HAVE_FAST_UNALIGNED = 1, // TODO: detect based on target
    });

    lib.addConfigHeader(avconfig_h);

    lib.installConfigHeader(avconfig_h);
```

693b12f8e1 std.Build: support exposing and depending on zig modules
New API introduced: std.Build.addModule

This function exposes a zig module with the given name, which can be
used by packages that depend on this one via std.Build.Dependency.module.

std.Build.Pkg and related functionality is deleted. Every use case has a
straightforward upgrade path using the new Module struct.

std.Build.OptionsStep.getPackage is replaced by
std.Build.OptionsStep.createModule.

std.Build.CompileStep.addPackagePath is replaced by
std.Build.CompileStep.addAnonymousModule.

This partially addresses #14307 by renaming some of the instances of
"package" to "module".

Closes #14278

873bb29c98 introduce ZON: Zig Object Notation
* std.zig.parse is moved to std.zig.Ast.parse
 * the new function has an additional parameter that requires passing
   Mode.zig or Mode.zon
 * moved parser.zig code to Parse.zig
 * added parseZon function next to parseRoot function

90e48d4b34 std.Build: avoid use of catch unreachable
Usage of `catch unreachable` in build scripts is completely harmless
because build scripts are always run in Debug mode, however, it sets a
poor example for beginners to learn from.

16cdd1297e rename std.Build.LibExeObjStep to std.Build.CompileStep
This matches the nomenclature internally: a Compilation is the main type
that represents a single invokation of the compiler.

I've been wanting to do this for along time.
