* Rework command-line options handling for entry points and targets
Overview:
* The biggest functionality change is that the implicit ordering constraints when multiple `-entry` options are reversed: any `-stage` option affects the `-entry` to its *left* instead of to its *right* as it used to. This is technically a breaking change, but I expect most users aren't using this feature.
* The options parsing tries to handle profile versions and stages as distinct data (rather than using the combined `Profile` type all over), and treats a `-profile` option that specifies both a profile version and a stage (e.g., `-profile ps_5_0`) as if it were sugar for both a `-profile` and a `-stage` (e.g., `-profile sm_5_0 -stage fragment`).
* We now technically handle multiple `-target` options in one invocation of `-slangc`, but do not advertise that fact in the documentation because it might be confusing for users. Similar to the relationship between `-stage` and `-entry`, any `-profile` option affects the most recent `-target` option unless there is only one `-target`.
* The logic for associating `-o` options with corresponding entry points and targets has been beefed up. The rule is that a `-o` option for a compiled kernel binds to the entry point to its left, unless there is only one entry point (just like for `-stage`). The associated target for a `-o` option is found via a search, however, because otherwise it would be impossible to specify `-o` options for both SPIR-V and DXIL in one pass.
* The handling of output paths for entry points in the internal compiler structures was changed, because previously it could only handle one output path per entry point (even when there are multiple targets). The new logic builds up a per-target mapping from an entry point to its desired output path (if any).
Details:
* Support for formatting profile versions, stages, and compile targets (formats) was added to diagnostic printing, so that we can make better error messages. This is fairly ad hoc, and it would be nice to have all of the string<->enum stuff be more data-driven throughout the codebase.
* Test cases were added for (almost) all of the error conditions in the current options validation. The main one that is missing is around specifying an `-entry` option before any source file when compiling multiple files. This is because the test runner is putting the source file name first on the command line automatically, so we can't reproduce that case.
* Several reflection-related tests now reflect entry points where they didn't before, because the logic for detecting when to infer a default `main` entry point have been made more loose
* On the dxc path, beefed up the handling of mapping from Slang `Profile`s to the coresponding string to use when invoking dxc.
* A bunch of tests cases were in violation of the newly imposed rules, so those needed to be cleaned up.
* There were also a bunch of test cases that had accidentally gotten "disabled" at some point because there were comparing output from `slangc` both with and without a `-pass-through` option, but that meant that any errors in command-line parsing produced the *same* error output in both the Slang and pass-through cases. This change updates `slang-test` to always expect a successful run for these tests, and then manually updates or disables the various test cases that are affected.
* When merging the updated test for matrix layout mode, I found that the new command-line logic was failing to propagate a matrix layout mode passed to `render-test` into the compiler. This was because the `-matrix-layout*` options were implemented as per-target, but the target was being set by API while the option came in via command line (passed through the API). It seems like we want matrix layout mode to be a global option anyway (rather than per-target), so I made that change here.
* Add missing expected output files
* A 64-bit fix
* Remove commented-out code noted in review

This change adds support for specifying explicit register spaces, like:
```hlsl
// Bind to texture register #2 in space #1
Texture2D t : register(t2, space1);
```
I added a test case to confirm that the register space is properly propagated through the Slang reflection API.
This change also adds proper error messages for some error/unsupported cases that weren't being diagnosed:
* Specifying a completely bogus register "class" (e.g., `register(bad99)`)
* Failing to specify a register index (`register(u)`)
* Specifying a component mask (`register(t0.x)`)
* Using `packoffset` bindings
I added test cases to cover all of these, as well as the new errors around support for register `space` bindings.
In order to get the existing tests to pass, I had to remove explicit `packoffset` bindings from some DXSDK test shaders.
None of these `packoffset` bindings were semantically significant (they matched what the compiler would do anyway, for both Slang and the standard HLSL compiler). Removing them is required for Slang now that we give an explicit error about our lack of `packoffset` support.
In a future change we might add logic to either detect semantically insignificant `packoffset`s, or to just go ahead and support them properly (as a general feature on `struct` types).

The main practical change here is that things that used to be `IRValue`s, like literals, are now being expressed as instructions in the global scope.
In order to validate that things are actually being handled correctly, this change introduces an explicit "validation" pass that can be run on the IR to check for different invariants (although it doesn't check many of the important ones right now). I've left the validation pass turned off by default, but with a command-line flag to enable it. We may want to make it be on by default in debug builds, just to keep us honest. The main invariant for the moment is that when on IR instruction is used as an operand to another, it had better come from the same IR module.
Some of the existing passes were violating this rule, in particular when it came to cloning of witness tables related to global generic parameter substitution. Those features can in theory be handled better now by allowing `specialize` instructions at other scopes, but I didn't want to over-complicate this change, so I make just enough fixes to ensure that these steps always clone witness tables they get from the "symbols" on an IR specialization context. In order for this to work when recursively specializing, I had to ensure that the logic for generic specialization had a notion of a "parent" specialization context that it would fall back to to perform cloning when necessary.
This change keeps the logic that was caching and re-using the instructions for literal values within a module, but adds some logic that isn't really being tested right now for picking the right parent instruction to insert a constant instruction into. This logic doesn't trigger right now because all of the cases we are using it on have zero operands (and so they always get "hoisted" to the global scope), but eventually for things like types we want to be able to support instructions with operands (e.g., `vector<float, 4>`) and handle the case where some of those operands come from different scopes (e.g., when nested inside a generic).
The final change here is mostly cosmetic: the `IRBuilder` is now more abstract about where insertion occurs: it tracks a single `IRParentInst` to insert into, and then an optional `IRInst` to insert before. In the common case, that parent is an `IRBlock`, but it could conceivably also be the global scope, or a witness table, etc. Use sites where we used to change those fields directly now use distinct methods `setInsertInto(parent)` and `setInsertBefore(inst)` which capture the two cases we care about. Accessors are also defined to extract the current block (if the current parent is a block), and the current "function" (global value with code, if the current parent is a global value with code, or a block inside one).
With this work in place, it should be possible for a follow-on change to start putting `specialize` instructions at the global scope and thus clean up some of the on-the-fly specialization work. This work should also help with some of the requirements around a distinct IR-level type system and more explicit generics.

Fixes #23
Up to this point, the compiler has used the ordinary `String` type to represent declaration names, which means a bunch of lookup structures throughout the compiler were string-to-whatever maps, which can reduce efficiency.
It also means that things like the `Token` type end up carying a `String` by value and paying for things like reference-counting.
This change adds a `Name` type that is used to represent names of variables, types, macros, etc.
Names are cached and unique'd globally for a session, and the string-to-name mapping gets done during lexing.
From that point on, most mapping is from pointers, which should make all the various table lookups faster.
More importantly (possibly), this brings us one step closer to being able to pool-allocate the AST nodes.

Fixes #24
So far the code has used a representation for source locations that is heavy-weight, but typical of research or hobby compilers: a `struct` type containing a line number and a (heap-allocated) string.
This is actually very convenient for debugging, but it means that any data structure that might contain a source location needs careful memory management (because of those strings) and has a tendency to bloat.
The new represnetation is that a source location is just a pointer-sized integer.
In the simplest mental model, you can think of this as just counting every byte of source text that is passed in, and using those to name locations.
Finding the path and line number that corresponds to a location involves a lookup step, but we can arrange to store all the files in an array sorted by their start locations, and do a binary search.
Finding line numbers inside a file is similarly fast (one you pay a one-time cost to build an array of starting offsets for lines).
More advanced compilers like clang actually go further and create a unique range of source locations to represent a file each time it gets included, so that they can track the include stack and reproduce it in diagnostic messages.
I'm not doing anything that clever here.

- `ExpressionSyntaxNode` becomes `Expr`
- `StatementSyntaxNode` becomes `Stmt`
- `StructSyntaxNode` becomes `StructDecl`
- `ProgramSyntaxNode` becomes `ModuleDecl`
- `ExpressionType` becomes `Type`
- Existing fields names `Type` become `type`
- There might be some collateral damage here if there were, e.g., `enum`s named `Type`, but I can live with that for now and fix those up as a I see them

The change is mostly about trying to make sure the compiler "fails safe" when it encounters an internal assumption that isn't met.
Most internal errors will now throw exceptions (yes, exceptions are evil, but this will work for now), and these get caught in `spCompile` so that they don't propagate to the user (they just see a message that compilation aborted due to an internal error).
Subsequent changes are going to need to work on diagnosing as many of these situations as possible, so that users can at least know what construct in their code was unexpected or unhandled by the compiler.

Fixes #12
- This was a latent issue, but the previous commit brought it to the front.
- As indicated in #12, I don't allocate a descriptor-table slot to the block
- Instead I allocate a `PushConstantBuffer`
- Unlike what #12 asks for, I don't use a different resource type for the contents of the block
- Pretty much all the logic is easiest if these continue to be just plain `Uniform` data
|
|
- The old code was just doing `exit(1)` if glslang or `D3DCompile` failed, which is obviously unacceptable
- The new approach adds the output to the diagnostic buffer (or invokes the callback), and tracks the error count just like any other errors

The code should now compile cleanly with warnings as errors for VS2015 with `W3`.
Most of the changes had to do with propagating a real pointer-sized integer type through code that had been using `int`.

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.
|

This gets rid of one unecessary namespace.
