Note that this change does not actually *enable* on-demand deserialization of ASTs, because doing so is incompatible with the current compiler architecture where we have both an `ASTBuilder` and a `SharedASTBuilder`, and there are important invariants about how all AST nodes related to the core module must be created before those of any module using the core module.
Instead, this change simply adds the *infrastructure* for on-demand deserialization, and ensures that those code paths get used at runtime, but actually "demands" all of the nodes in a given serialized AST immediately as part of the deserialization process.
Important notes about the implementation approach:
* PR #7242 ensured that all of the code accessing the direct member declarations of a `ContainerDecl` went through a small(-ish) set of accessor methods. This change takes advantage of that work by further abstracting the storage of the direct member declarations out in a type, `ContainerDeclDirectMemberDecls`, which makes it easy to add custom serialization logic for just that type.
* The `ContainerDeclDirectMemberDecls` type also stores two pointers (one a `RefPtr` and the other a plain pointer) that are only used in the case where the members of a given `ContainerDecl` are being accessed through on-demand deserialization. This can be queried using the `isUsingOnDemandDeserialization()` method but any code accessing a `ContainerDecl` through the intended public API should never need to care about that detail.
* Many of the accessor methods that were added in PR #7242 now branch on whether `isUsingOnDemandDeserialization()` is set. The normal code path is unchanged, and the implementation logic for the on-demand-deserialization case is largely held in `slang-serialize-ast.cpp`, to keep it close to the definitions of the serialized data structures themselves.
* A few types in the `slang-ast-*.h` headers have had `FIDDLE()` annotations added to them, so that they can be used to synthesize some of the serialization logic that was previously hand-written.
* The `_registerBuiltinDeclsRec()` function (which is used to scan the built-in module ASTs for the various "magic" declarations that the `SharedASTBuilder` needs to know about) was factored a bit to support the way that registration needs to behave differently in the case of loading a serialized module (if we kept using the existing recursive search, then it would force every declaration in the core module to be loaded right away). The new `_collectBuiltinDeclsThatNeedRegistrationRec()` function mirrors the overall traversal pattern to produce a flat list that gets included in the serialized AST module. Note in particular that we no longer call `registerBuiltinDecls()` from within `_readBuiltinModule()`.
* The interface of the `Module` type was slightly expanded so that there is a more complete API for accessing the declarations exported from the module. Previously they could only be queried by their mangled name, but the new API also allows the entire list to be iterated over. The `ensureLookupAcceleratorBuilt()` method factors out the logic for building those data structures for a module. Note that in the case where on-demand deserialization is being used for a module, the `findExportedDeclByMandledName()` query will use serialized data directly, rather than build the lookup accelerators as C++ data structures (this is required if we are to avoid immediately deserializing all of the (exported) declarations in the core module as soon as it is loaded).
* A few methods related to loading serialized modules (e.g., `loadSerializedModule()`) have been updated so that along with a pointer to the serialized `ModuleChunk` (which, for those who aren't aware, is a pointer directly into the serialized bytes of the module file), they receive an `ISlangBlob` that refers to the entire blob holding the serialized data (which the `ModuleChunk` is part of). Passing this pointer down allows code running under these methods to retain a reference-counted pointer to the blob to stop the memory of the serialized module from being released until deserialization has been completed.
* The data types defined in `slang-fossil.h` have been overhauled significantly:
* The most important change that is relevant to this work is the introduction of the `Fossilized<T>` template, which is used to statically map a "live" C++ type `T` to its binary fossilized representation. The `slang-fossil.h` file provides infrastructure allowing `Fossilized<T>` to be specialized for user-defined types, and also provides the necessary mappings for the core types like strings, arrays, and dictionaries.
* A key point is that in C++ code, one can take a value of some type `Foo`, serialize it using a `Fossil::SerialWriter`, get a pointer to that serialized data, and then directly cast it to a `Fossilized<Foo>*` and navigate the serialized data directly (without deserializing it back into a `Foo`). For that process to work, any specialization of `Fossilized<T>` must be sure to match the layout that will be produced by the `serialize()` implementation for `T`, when writing to a `Fossil::SerialWriter`.
* Another key change in the public interface of `slang-fossil.h` is that dynamically-typed traversal of the data used to be handled just with `FossilizedValRef`, but now uses a few different types. The `Fossil::ValRef<T>` and `Fossil::AnyValRef` types are used to capture the use cases that want reference-like behavior (basically a `Fossil::ValRef<T>` can be thought of as sort of like a `T&`), while `Fossil::ValPtr<T>` and `Fossil::AnyValPtr` are used for cases that want pointer like behavior (akin to `T*`).
* Then there are related changes in `slang-serialize-fossil.*`:
* The implementation of `Fossil::SerialReader` has been changed to use `Fossil::AnyValPtr` in most places where it formerly used `FossilizedValRef`. Using pointers (that can be null) instead of a weird kind of pseudo-reference (that could still be null) to traverse things was making the code harder to follow than it ought to be, in terms of understanding the levels of indirection in various places.
* Some of the state that was previously in `Fossil::SerialReader` has been split into `Fossil::ReadContext`. This type allows multiple `Fossil::SerialReader`s to be created to read from the same serialized blob(s), while maintaining a persistent mapping from fossilized data pointers to live object pointers. The `ReadContext` also maintains the work list of deferred deserialization actions waiting to be performed, and only flushes that list when the last currently-open `SerialReader` is about to go out of scope.
* In order to support the split of `Fossil::SerialReader` described above (and also to clean up something that didn't quite feel right in the original serialization design) the base serialization framework in `slang-serialize.h` has been tweaked so that a `Serializer` now wraps *two* pointers instead of just one. The first pointer continues to be an implementation of `ISerializerImpl`, which handles the actual reading/writing of data, while the other pointer is an explicit "context" pointer for operations that need additional user-defined context.
* Similar to the changes made to the accessors for direct member declarations in a `ContainerDecl`, the `Module::findExportedDeclByMangledName()` method was updated to conditionally execute a different code path in the case of a module that has been loaded from serialized data.
* Some improvements have been made to the fiddle tool:
* Most importantly, the error-handling logic around Lua script execution has been cleaned up to better match correct Lua idiom. Native functions exposed to the Lua scripts have been changed to just use `lua_call` instead of `lua_pcall`, so rather than attempt to intercept Lua errors they will just automatically propagate them.
* All Lua-related errors are caught at the top level, and reported in a way that uses the source location of the fiddle template that was being evaluated when the error was raised. In most cases, a Lua error should be accompanied by a stack trace of the Lua evluation state. The file paths and line numbers given should be accurate, but aren't directly double-clickable in the Visual Studio output panel, because they use a different format (a good future change might be to process the Lua stack trace and rewrite it into a format that is better for our needs).
* Fixed a subtle bug where having "raw" content (parts of the template that should neither be evaluated nor emitted into the output) that consisted of only whitespace could result in a template being translated to invalid Lua code.
* The bulk of the change is, unsurprisingly, in `slang-serialize-ast.cpp`.
* This file has been refactored enough to look like a complete rewrite. A lot of work has been put into comments that describe the overall approach being taken, so hopefully it can be understood even by somebody who wasn't familiar with the previous code. Some of these are just plain cleanups, rather than being directly related to on-demand serialization.
* Where possible, the code for reading and writing types that needed custom serialization has been moved so that the read/write functions are next to one another, making it easier to visually confirm that the serialized representations match on the read and write sides.
* Where possible, the serialization logic for all types (not just the AST nodes, as was the case before) is being generated via fiddle.
* Rather than just defining `serialize()` overloads for each of the relevant types, the code now defines `Fossilized<...>` specializations for these types as well, to enable statically-typed in-memory traversal of the serialized data. Note, however, that for the most part the `Fossilized<...>` representation types are *not* being used by the code (really only the `ASTModuleInfo` and `ContainerDeclDirectMemberDeclsInfo` types are traversed directly). This can be considered more as work to prove out the design of the `Fossil<...>` template approach, and it may or may not end up being relevant in the future.
* The trivial bit of work to enable on-demand deserialization is in `ASTSerialReadContext::handleContainerDeclDirectMemberDecls()` where, rather than recursively reading the contained declarations, the method effectively just grabs the current cursor of the `Fossil::SerialReader` (which is pointed into the fossilized data) and stashes it into the `ContainerDeclDirectMemberDecls`, along with a `RefPtr` to the `ASTSerialReadContext` itself. Those stashed pointers are what enables the accessors on `ContaienrDeclDirectMemberDecls` to look up information on-demand.
* The more interesting bits of the approach mostly come at the end of the file, where the accessor operations for on-demand deserialization are implemented. Once all the relevant work has been done to write the data structures, and produce `Fossilized<...>` types with the right layout, the work itself may seem almost trivial: a little bit of array iteration, and a little bit of binary-search lookup.
* As a reminder, all of this infrastructure for on-demand deserialization is now in place and able to be invoked by the rest of the compiler, but declarations are currently all being loaded eagerly. The `SLANG_DISABLE_ON_DEMAND_AST_DESERIALIZATION` macro is being used to enable a small bit of extra logic in `ASTSerialReadContext::_cleanUpASTNode` so that the "cleanup" on a just-deserialized `ContainerDecl` includes eagerly querying its list of direct member declarations, which will cause them to be recursively deserialized.

Previously, interface types were allowed to be used directly as function parameters, local variables, and global shader parameters.
Using an interface type as a field of a `struct` type or a `cbuffer` declaration was not implemented.
This change adds that support, and fixes several unrelated issues that caused problems in doing so.
* The most important work here was adding a case for `IRStructType` to `maybeSpecializeBindExistentialsType` that creates a specialized variant of a `struct` type on-demand based on specialization operands. This logic loops over the fields of the original struct, and creates new fields by binding the existentials/interfaces in the type of each field. Caching is used to ensure that the same `struct` type specialized to the same operands should yield the same result.
* To allow subsequent specialization to occur when a `struct` with interface-type fields is used, it was also necessary to specialize field-address and field-extract instructions in cases where the value that the field is being extracted from is a `wrapExistential`.
* Similarly, we neede to make sure that the logic for specializing called functions based on the concrete types for interfaces in the argument list would also take into account `struct` types with existential-type fields inside of them.
* Doing the above changes revealed some serious flaws in how the `ir-specialize.cpp` logic was tracking which instructions still needed to be processed. It had previously been assuming that it could assume any relevant instructions were on its work list, and when the work list went empty it could exit. This runs into two problems: (1) sometimes we create new instructions when specializing, and it may be impossible to ensure that all the new instructions (e.g., those created by utility routines in other files) get added to the work list, and (2) sometimes the instruction(s) that need to be re-visited when we specialize something aren't its direct users, but instead somethign that transitively depends on the instruction.
These issues were fixed by two changes to the pass: (1) we now maintain a list of known "clean" instructions instead of implicitly using the work-list as a list of "dirty" instructions (so that implicitly any new instruction is dirty), and periodically iterating over all instructions to add the non-clean ones to the work list for processing, and (2) when an instruction is specialized/replaced we mark everything that transitively depends on it "dirty" (by removing it from the "clean" list).
* Added some logic to "fix up" the type of an IR function after changes that might modify its parameter list. Failing to have this logic meant that certain types were still live (because they were referenced by a function type) that couldn't actually be emitted as legal HLSL/GLSL.
* Added some special cases to IR instruction creation for `wrapExistential` and `BindExistentialsType` so that they act as no-ops when there are no "slots" providing specialization information. This helps avoid some special cases when specializing structure fields (since some fields specialization and others don't, so in general there are zero or more operands specific to each field).
* Added a test case that uses an interface type in a `cbuffer`, as well as an interface type in a `struct` passed as an entry-point `uniform` parameter.
* Fixed up some parts of the `.natvis` files to reflect naming changes from a previous PR and thus restore some of the useful Visual Studio debugging experience for Slang.

- `RefPtr` no longer tries to have distinct cases for interal-vs-external reference counts. Instead we always require an internal reference count.
- Types the used `RefPtr` but weren't `RefObject` were made to inherit `RefObject`
- The `ReferenceCounted` base class was removed, so that only `RefObject` remains
- Implicit conversion from `RefPtr<T>` to `T*` added
- This created some complicates for other types that relied on implicit conversions, so this isn't a net cleanup right now
- The main type that got messed up by the above was `String`, which previously held a `RefPtr<char, ...>`. This change thus *also* includes a major overhaul of `String`:
- `String` now holds all its data via indirection, using a `StringRepresentation` that is a `RefObject`. This object holds a length, capacity, and directly stores the character data in its allocation. This means that `sizeof(String)==sizeof(void*)`
- It is now possible to directly mutate a `String` by appending to its representation (we just need to ensure it has a reference count of `1`, possibly by cloning it). This means that `StringBuilder` is now basically just an idomatic use of `String`
- A couple operations that just return sub-ranges of a `String` now return `StringSlice` to avoid allocation when it isn't needed. This required more work.
- Indices into strings changed from `int` to `UInt` (which is pointer-sized). This had a bunch of follow-on changes because the value `-1` sometimes needs to be special-cased in code that uses indices. Further cleanups are probably needed here.

It is always easier to add back code when you need it, than it is to maintain code you aren't using.

Getting rid of more namespace complexity and stripping things down to the basics.
This also gets rid of some dead code in the "core" library.
