* std.Io.Reader: appendRemaining no longer supports alignment and has
different rules about how exceeding limit. Fixed bug where it would
return success instead of error.StreamTooLong like it was supposed to.
* std.Io.Reader: simplify appendRemaining and appendRemainingUnlimited
to be implemented based on std.Io.Writer.Allocating
* std.Io.Writer: introduce unreachableRebase
* std.Io.Writer: remove minimum_unused_capacity from Allocating. maybe
that flexibility could have been handy, but let's see if anyone
actually needs it. The field is redundant with the superlinear growth
of ArrayList capacity.
* std.Io.Writer: growingRebase also ensures total capacity on the
preserve parameter, making it no longer necessary to do
ensureTotalCapacity at the usage site of decompression streams.
* std.compress.flate.Decompress: fix rebase not taking into account seek
* std.compress.zstd.Decompress: split into "direct" and "indirect" usage
patterns depending on whether a buffer is provided to init, matching
how flate works. Remove some overzealous asserts that prevented buffer
expansion from within rebase implementation.
* std.zig: fix readSourceFileToAlloc returning an overaligned slice
which was difficult to free correctly.
fixes#24608
Running tar.pipeToFileSystem compressed_mingw_includes.tar file from #24732
finishes in infinite loop calling defaultReadVec with:
r.seek = 1024
r.end = 1024
r.buffer.len = 1024
first.len = 512
that combination calls vtable.stream with 0 capacity writer and loops
forever.
Comment is to use whichever has larger capacity, and this fix reflects that.
This eliminates a footgun and special case handling with fixed buffers,
as well as allowing decompression streams to keep a window in the output
buffer.
This passes tests but it doesn't provide as big a window size as is
required to decompress larger streams.
The next commit in this branch will work towards that, without
introducing an additional buffer.
ensure that it issues a stream call that includes the buffer to detect
the end when needed, but otherwise does not offer Reader buffer to
append directly to the list.
Rather than having the endian-suffixed functions be the preferred ones
the unsuffixed ones are the preferred ones and the tricky functions get
a special suffix.
Makes packed structs read and written the same as integers.
