Note that while this change touched a large numer of files, there are no
changes to functionality being made here. The only things being done are
renaming various symbols and, in a few cases, updating or adding
comments for consistency with the new names.
The core of the naming changes are:
* Most things named to refer to `OutType` (e.g., `IROutType`,
`IRBuilder::getOutType()`, etc.) have been consistently renamed to refer
to `OutParamType`, to emphasize that the relevant AST/IR node types are
only intended for use to represent `out` parameters.
* The same change as described above for `OutType` is also made for
`RefType`, which becomes `RefParamType` in most cases. One mess that
this exposes is the way that the `ExplicitRef<T>` type in the core
module currently lowers to `IRRefParamType`. This change sticks to the
rule of not making functional changes, so that mess is left as-is for
now.
* Names referring to `InOutType` have been changed to instead refer to
`BorrowInOutType`. The intention with this naming change is to emphasize
that the Slang rules for `inout` are semantically those of a borrow (or
at least our interpretation of what a borrow means).
* Names referring to `ConstRefType` have been changed to instead refer
to `BorrowInType`. This change starts work on clarifying that the
existing `__constref` modifier was never intended to be a read-only
analogue of `__ref`, and instead is the input-only analogue of `inout`.
* The `ParameterDirection` enum type has been changed to
`ParamPassingMode`, to reflect the fact that the concept of "direction"
fails to capture what is actually being encoded, particularly once we
have modes beyond simple `in`/`out`/`inout`.
While this change does not alter behavior in any case (the user-exposed
Slang language is unchanged), it is intended to set up subsequence
changes that will work to make the handling of these types in the
compiler more nuanced and correct. Breaking this part of the change out
separately is primarily motivated by a desire to minimize the effort for
reviewers.

Overview
========
This change is the start of an attempt to address how the Slang compiler
codebase has ended up conflating two similar, but semantically distinct,
concepts:
* The long-standing notion of `ref` parameters (only allowed for use in
the builtin modules), which are encoded using a wrapper `Type` in the
AST as part of the representation of the parameters of a `FuncType`.
* A recently-introduced notion of explicit reference types that mirror
the built-in `Ptr` type, with a relationship comparable to that between
pointer and reference types in C++.
The change splits the `Ref<T>` type in the core module into two distinct
types, with one for each of the two use cases. Similarly, the `RefType`
class in the compiler's AST is split into two distinct classes, to
represent the two cases.
Background
==========
The `Ref<T>` type in the core module (hidden and not intended for users
to ever see or use) was originally introduced to encode the `ref`
parameter-passing mode, comparable to the hidden `Out<T>` and `InOut<T>`
types used to encode `out` and `inout` parameter-passing modes. The
`Ref<T>` type in the core module was encoded as a instance of the
`RefType` class in the Slang AST (similar to how `Out<T>` mapped to an
`OutType`). These AST classes were *only* intended to be used by the
compiler front-end as part of its encoding of function types. The
`FuncType` class needed a way to distinguish an `inout int` parameter
from a plain (implicitly `in`) `int` parameter, so these wrapper like
`RefType` and `OutType` were introduced to encode both the parameter
type (`T`) and the parameter-passing mode in a form that could be passed
around as a `Type`.
Notably, the `Ref<T>` type (and `Out<T>`, etc.) were *not* intended to
be type names that ever get uttered in Slang code (not even in the
builtin modules), and the vast majority of the compiler code was not
supposed to ever encounter them. They were an implementation detail of
`FuncType`, and nothing else.
(In hindsight it may have been a mistake to use a nominal type declared
in the core module to implement these wrappers; it might have been a
good idea to use an entirely separate class of `Type` for this case...)
Recent changes to the builtin modules introduced functions that wanted
to *return* a reference (so that the parameter-passing-mode modifiers
like `ref` could not trivially be used), and as part of those changes
the appealingly-named `Ref<T>` type in the core module was re-used for
this new case. Builtin operations were declared with an explicit
`Ref<T>` return type, and parts of the compiler front-end that had
previously been blissfully unaware of the AST's `RefType` (and
`InOutType`, etc.) had to start accounting for the possibility that an
explicit `Ref<T>` would show up.
Related changes also introduced a comparable conflation of the
(unfortunately-named) `constref` parameter-passing modifier and builtin
operations that wanted to return an explicit reference that is
read-only. Both use cases were mapped to the core-module `ConstRef<T>`
type, which appeared in the AST as an instance of the `ConstRefType`
class.
The overlapping use of `ConstRef<T>`` is actually significantly more
troublesome than the `Ref<T>` case because, despite what its name
implies, `constref` was not really supposed to be the read-only analogue
of `ref`, but rather it is closer to the "immutable value borrow"
analogue to `inout`'s "mutable value borrow." The semantics of a "value
borrow" vs. a "memory reference" in Slang have not been very carefully
codified, and the conflation around `ConstRef<T>` has contributed to
things becoming increasingly muddy in the compiler back-end.
Main Changes
============
Core Module
-----------
The `Ref<T>` type has been replaced with two distinct types, with one
for each use case:
* `RefParam<T>` is intended for use when encoding a `ref` parameter in a
function type
* `ExplicitRef<T>` is intended for use when an operation in a builtin
module wants to return a reference
The other types used to represent parameter-passing modes (e.g.,
`InOut<T>`) were renamed to better indicate that their role in defining
parameter types (e.g., `InOutParam<T>`).
The `ExplicitRef<T>` type was given additional generic parameters for
the allowed access and the address space, akin to what `Ptr<T>` now
supports. The pointer dereference operator (prefix `*`) in the core
module should now properly propagate the access and address space of the
pointer over to the reference that gets returned.
The two distinct use cases of `ConstRef<T>` were not split in the way as
`Ref<T>`, instead the case for the `constref` parameter-passing mode
uses `ConstParamRef<T>`, while cases that previously used `ConstRef<T>`
to represent a read-only explicit reference instead now use
`ExplicitRef<T, Access.Read>`.
Prior to this change there were two subscripts declared on pointers: one
in the `Ptr` type itself, and another in an `extension` for pointers
with `Access.ReadWrite`. The comments on the code seemed to indicate
that the catch-all subscript used to only have a `get` accessor, while
the `ref` was only available on read-write pointers, but it seems that
subsequent changes converted the default subscript to support `ref`.
This change eliminates the subscript added via `extension`, since it is
redundant.
AST and Front-End
=================
Similar to the changes in the core module, the AST `RefType` class was
split into:
* `RefParamType` for the case of encoding `ref` parameters
* `ExplicitRefType` for the case where the user meant an explicit
reference type
All the other classes that represent wrappers for encoding
parameter-passing modes (e.g., `OutType`) were similarly renamed (e.g.,
`OutParamType`).
The `ConstRefType` class was simply renamed to `ConstRefParamType`,
because any use cases of `ConstRefType` that intended an explicit
reference type will now use `ExplicitRefType` with `Acccess.Read`.
For convenience, this change includes type aliases to map the old names
for these types over to the new ones (e.g., `using OutType =
OutParamType`) so that the change doesn't need to affect quite so many
lines of code. The `RefType` and `ConstRefType` names are intentionally
left undefined, since it woudl be unsafe to assume that existing use
sites should default to either of the two possible interpretations.
All use cases of `RefType` and `ConstRefType` (and their former shared
base class `RefTypeBase`) were audited and updated to refer to either
`RefParamType`/`ConstRefParamType` or `ExplicitRefType`, as appropriate
(based on whether the context of the code indicated it was working with
parameter-passing mode wrapper types, or explicit reference types).
In many (many) cases comments were added to the code that was updated
(and some unrelated code that needed to be audited along the way) to
note cases where there appears to be something fishy going on in the
compiler and/or there are obvious opportunities for next-step
improvement.
The `QualType` constructor used to infer l-value-ness when passed a
`RefType` or `ConstRefType`; that code was introduced to support
explicit reference types. The code was updated to consult the access
argument of an `ExplicitRefType` to try and determine the right
l-value-ness to use. There is some ambiguity about what should be done
in the case where the value of the generic argument representing the
access cannot be statically determined; a better solution may be needed.
Many other cases in the front-end that were working with `RefType` and
`ConstRefType` for explicit references also need to figure out
l-value-ness, and these were changed to rely on the logic already added
to `QualType` so that it wouldn't have to be duplicated. It isn't clear
if this structure is the best way to tackle the problem, but it seems to
at least be an upgrade over the more strictly ad-hoc logic that was in
place before.
Future Work
===========
IR-Level Work
-------------
The most obvious next step to take is that the split that was made in
the compiler front-end needs to be properly plumbed through all of the
back-end. There appears to be a lot of code in the back end of the
compiler that has made the same conflation of `ref` parameters and
explicit reference types that the front-end did. In practice, any uses
of `ExplicitRef<T>` in the front-end should desugar into plain
pointer-based code in the IR.
Clean Up Parameter-Passing Modes
--------------------------------
The code that handles different parameter-passing modes
(`ParameterDirection`s) and their wrapper types is somewhat scattered
and messy (as found while auditing use cases of `RefType`). A cleanup
pass is warranted to ensure that most code only needs to think about
`ParameterDirection`s. There should ideally be only a single operation
in the front-end that handles determining the `ParameterDirection` of a
parameter based on its modifiers. Similarly, there should be one
operation to wrap a value type based on a parameter direction, and one
operation to derive a `ParameterDirection` from the wrapper type.
Ideally, the accessors for `FuncType` should not provide unrestricted
access to the potentially-wrapped parameter types, and should instead
return some kind of `ParamInfo` struct that encodes both a
`ParameterDirection` and the unwrapped `Type` of the parameter.
Clean Up `QualType`
-------------------
A significant piece of future work that appears required is to
drastically clean up and improve the way that `QualType`s are represente
and handled in the front-end. There are currently various distinct
`bool` flags in `QualType` (some with very unclear meaning) and
differnet parts of the codebase consult/modify only subsets of them; a
clear enumeration of the "value categories" (to use the C++ terminology)
that Slang supports could be quite helpful. Naively, a `QualType` should
at least encode the basic information that a `Ptr` type encodes:
* A value type
* Allowed access (read-only, read-write, etc.)
* Address space
The main additional thing that a `QualType` needs is a way to
distinguish cases where an expression evaluates to:
* A reference to a memory location, where all the information from a
`Ptr` is relevant
* A simple value, such that the access and address space are irrelevant
* A reference to an abstract storage location (a `property`,
`subscript`, or an implicit conversion that needs to support being an
l-value), in which case address space is irrelevant and the "allowed
access" basically amounts to a listing of the accessors the storage
location supports
Eliminate Explicit Reference Types
----------------------------------
Finally, twe should eventually eliminate the `ExplicitRef<T>` type from
the core module (and all of the supporting code from the front-end),
since the feature is not a good fit for the Slang language. We should
find some other way to decorate operations in the builtin module that
need to returns a reference rather than a value (note how `ref`
accessors already avoided exposing explicit reference types, by design).

Resolves #7628
Resolves: #8197
Primary Goals:
1. Add `Access` to pointer
2. AddressSpace::GroupShared support for pointers (SPIR-V)
3. Add `__getAddress()` to replace `&`
* `&` is not updated to `require(cpu)` since slangpy uses `&`. This
means we must: (1) merge PR; (2) replace `&` with `__getAddress()`; (3)
add `require(cpu)` to `&`
Changes:
* Added to `Ptr` the `Access` generic argument & logic (for
`Access::Read`).
* Moved the generic argument `AddressSpace` from `Ptr` to the end of the
type.
* Added pointer casting support between any `Ptr` as long as the
`AddressSpace` is the same
* Disallow globallycoherent T* and coherent T*
* Disallow const T*, T const*, and const T*
* Fixed .natvis display of `ConstantValue` `ValOperandNode`
* Support generic resolution of type-casted integers
* Added `VariablePointer` emitting for spirv + other minor logic needed
for groupshared pointers
Breaking Changes:
* Anyone using the `AddressSpace` of `Ptr` will now have to account for
the `Access` argument
* we disallow various syntax paired with `Ptr` and `T*`

close #7931.
For a generic callable, we have two passes overload resolution, in first pass, we will resolve
the generic by only checking the generic parameters, while in the second pass, we will resolve
the function signature to resolve the overload.
But in our candidate comparison logic, we pick a preferred generic even two generics are equally
good. However, we should not make this decision in the first pass, because we don't know about
the function arguments in this pass yet. So we just return OverloadEpxr2 in this case, and let the
function overload resolution to break the tie.

Most of what this change does is straightforward: take all the places in the code that used to operate directly on `ContainerDecl::members` and related fields, and instead have them call into a smaller set of accessor methods defined on `ContainerDecl`.
The primary motivation for making this change is that in order to implement on-demand loading of members from serialized AST modules, we need a way to identify and intercept the "demand" for those members.
On-demand loading benefits from having all accesses to the members of a `ContainerDecl` be as narrow as possible.
If a part of the code only need a member at a specific index, it should say so.
If it only needs access to members with a specific name, or a given subclass of `Decl`, then it should say so.
A secondary motivation for this change is that there have recently been several changes that added complexity and special cases by introducing code that operated on (and *mutated*) the member list of a container decl in ways that the existing code had never done before.
Any code that mutates the member list of a `ContainerDecl` needs to be sure to not disrupt the invariants that the lookup acceleration structures currently rely on.
One of the recent changes added a declaration-to-index map to the set of acceleration structures (with different validation/invalidation behavior than the others...) while other recent changes would remove or insert declarations in ways that could change the indices of other declarations in the same container.
It is not clear if any of these pieces of code were aware of the others, and the invariants that might be expected or broken along the way.
This change bottlenecks the vast majority of accesses to the members of a `ContainerDecl` through the following operations:
* Getting a `List` of all of the direct member declarations of a container
* Get the number of direct member declarations, and accessing them by index.
* Looking up the list of direct member declarations with a given name.
* Adding a new direct member declaration to the end of the list.
Some other operations are layered on top of those (e.g., getting a list of all the direct member declarations of a given C++ class).
These layered operations are still centralized on the `ContainerDecl`, with the intention that we *can* change them to be non-layered implementations if we ever need to for performance (e.g., by building a lookup structure for finding member declarations by their type).
The exceptional cases of access/mutation on the direct members of a `ContainerDecl` have also been encapsulated, but rather than expose what would risk appearing like general-purpose accessors (e.g., `removeDecl(d)`, `setDecl(index)`, etc.), these operations have been explicitly named after the specific use case that they serve in the codebase today, to discourage others from using them for more kinds of operations we'd rather not support.
These operations have also been given parameter signatures that match their use cases, to make it so that even somebody determined to abuse them would have to invent suitable arguments out of thin air.
In the case of the declaration-to-index mapping, this change eliminates that acceleration structure, in favor or slightly more complicated (and possibly inefficient, yes) code at the use site.
Over time, it would be good to closely scrutinize each of the use cases that requires more complicated interaction with the members of a `ContainerDecl`, to see whether any of them can be reframed in terms of the more basic operations, or if there is some clean abstraction we can introduce to make operations that mutate the member list feel like... hacky.

* Do not print errors in _coerce when "JustTrying".
While figuring out which generic-overload works best, `_coerce()` is
printing errors and Slang compilation terminates prematurely.
When `TryCheckGenericOverloadCandidateTypes()` is calling `_coerce()` in
"JustTrying" mode, the error messages should be snoozed.
The following logic shows the intention of how to silence the error
messages, but the chain of `sink` was broken in the middle and
`_coerce()` was using `getSink()` from the SemanticVisitor.
val = ExtractGenericArgInteger(
arg,
getType(m_astBuilder, valParamRef),
context.mode == OverloadResolveContext::Mode::JustTrying ? nullptr : getSink());
* Use tempSink when available.

* A new approach to AST serialization
This change completely overhauls the way that AST nodes are being serialized, and the offline source-code generation steps that enable that serialization.
In practice, this ends up being a complete overhaul of the way that *modules* are being serialized (not just the AST part), although things like the serialization format for the Slang IR and for source locations are not affected.
The rest of this commit message is broken down in to sections, in an attempt to help guide anybody looking at the code in how to make sense of all the changes.
The Old C++ Extractor
---------------------
AST serialization used to be driven by information scraped using the `slang-cpp-extractor` tool, which did an ad hoc parse of the C++ declarations of the AST node types and then generated a set of "X macros" that could be for macro-based code generation within the rest of the compiler.
While the existing approach was functional, it wasn't easy to understand or maintain, and it has been getting in the way of forward progress on other features we'd like to work on in the language and compiler.
This change removes the `slang-cpp-extractor` tool entirely.
Marking Up the AST Declarations
-------------------------------
The most notable change that contributors to the compiler may notice is the large number of invocations of a macro `FIDDLE()` on the declarations of the AST node types.
The basic idea is that only declarations (namespaces, types, fields) that are preceded by `FIDDLE()` are visible to the code generator tool.
So if somebody is working with the AST and wondering why a new node type isn't working, or why a field they added isn't being serialized correctly, it is probably because they need to add `FIDDLE()` in front of it.
Generating the Boilerplate Code
-------------------------------
The file `slang-ast-boilerplate.cpp` provides a good example of how the information extracted from the marked-up AST declarations gets used.
In that file, the `FIDDLE TEMPLATE` construct is used to generate type information for each of the AST node types.
Similar logic is used in `slang-ast-forward-declarations.h` to generate the declaration of the `ASTNodeType` enumeration, and forward-declare all the AST node classes.
For many parts of the code, simply including that file replaces the need for the old `slang-generated-*.h` files.
Replacing Visitors and Related Logic
------------------------------------
The old visitor types for the AST used the macros that were generated by `slang-cpp-extractor`, so something new was needed to replace them.
The same goes for the `SLANG_AST_NODE_VIRTUAL_CALL` macros.
The core of the solution implemented here is in `slang-ast-dispatch.h`.
Given a "dispatchable" AST node type (say, `Expr`), a call like:
```
ASTNodeDispatcher<Expr,R>(expr, [&](auto e) { return doSomething(e); })
```
is an expression of type `R`, which does the equivalent of something like:
```
switch(expr->getTag())
{
case ASTNodeType::VarExpr: return doSomething(static_cast<VarExpr*>(expr));
// ...
}
```
The `SLANG_AST_NODE_VIRTUAL_CALL` macro is now implemented in terms of `ASTNodeDispatcher`.
The implementation of the visitor types is more involved.
The code in this change retains some of the macro names from the original version, just to try and make the parallels more clear.
The visitor types are all implemented on top of the `ASTNodeDispatcher` approach, and use `FIDDLE TEMPLATE` to generate all the boilerplate `visit*()` method declarations.
Refactoring of `Linkage` Module Loading
---------------------------------------
Needing to revisit all the places where modules get deserialized made it clear that there is a lot of complexity and apparent duplication in the core routines on the `Linkage` that get used for loading modules.
This change tries to clean up some of that logic, but it is worth noting that there are two legacy features that get in the way of making things as clean as they should be:
* The `LoadedModuleDictionary` type that gets passed around a lot exists entirely to handle the corner case where somebody uses the Slang API to perform a compilation with multiple `TranslationUnitRequest`s in the same `FrontEndCompileRequest`, and one of the translation units `import`s the module defined by another of the translation units.
* There are a lot of special-case behaviors and routines entirely there to support the `ModuleLibrary` feature, although that feature should be considered deprecated (or at least subject to getting entirely re-designed down the line).
The basic idea of the cleanup is that all of the (non-deprecated) ways load a module from a serialized binary, or compile one from source should now bottleneck through `loadModuleImpl`, which then bifurcates into `loadSourceModuleImpl` for the compilation case and `loadBinaryModuleImpl` for the deserialization case.
High-Level Serialization Approach
---------------------------------
The old serialization logic used the [RIFF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Interchange_File_Format) format to encode the high-level structure of things, and this change retains that usage (and actually doubles down on the RIFF usage).
The old serialization system relied on the idea that for any given type `Foo` that wants to support serialization, there should be something like a `SerialFooData` type in C++, that can represent the state of a `Foo`, and then the actual serialization applied to that `SerialFooData`. This means that in most cases there are four pieces of code written:
* During serialization:
* Copying the data of a `Foo` in memory over to a `SerialFooData` in memory
* Writing the state of a `SerialFooData` into the serialized data stream
* During deserialization:
* Reading the state of a `SerialFooData` from a serialized data stream
* Copying the data of the `SerialFooData` in memory over to a `Foo`
The new logic gets rid of the intermediate `SerialFooData`.
In the serialization direction, we take a `Foo` and write it to the `RIFFContainer` directly, or using some other utilities layered on top of it.
In the deserialization direction, we have additional flexibility. Given a `RIFFContainer::Chunk*` that represents a serialized `Foo`, we often navigate through the in-memory representation of the RIFF data to get to the parts of the serialized value that we actually want/need, without needing to deserialize the entire `Foo`.
To support this kind of operation, this change introduces a few helper types like `ContainerChunkRef` an `ModuleChunkRef`, that are little more than typed wrappers around a `RIFFContainer::Chunk*`.
The Module "Container" Part
---------------------------
A serialized `Module` is encoded as a RIFF chunk, using logic in `slang-serialize-container.cpp` - both before and after this change.
This change reorganizes a lot of the code in that file, to account for the way that eliminating the intermediate `SerialContainerData` type streamlines the overall task of writing out the parts of the module.
In the deserialization logic... there isn't really much to do in `slang-serialize-container.cpp`. Most of the logic in `slang.cpp` and `slang-module-library.cpp` that pertains to deserializing modules uses the `ModuleChunkRef`-based approach, and simply extracts the pieces of the serialized module that it needs.
The Actual Serialization of the AST
-----------------------------------
The actual AST serialization logic is in `slang-serialize-ast.cpp`.
The basic approach in both the writing and reading directions is:
* Use the `FIDDLE TEMPLATE` system to generate a set of functions, one for each AST node type, that recursively invoke the read/write logic on each field of that node (after recursively invoking the case for its direct superclass)
* Use the `ASTNodeDispatcher` system to dispatch out to those functions whene reading or writing anything derived from `NodeBase`
* For now, handle all types *not* derived from `NodeBase` by hand.
There's a lot of room for improvement around that last item: it should be just as easy to generate the serialization and deserialization logic for other types that don't inherit from `NodeBase`, but the current change tries to err on the side of making the logic as explicit and simplistic as possible, rather than trying to get too clever too soon.
The actual serialization *format* used for the AST is almost comically simplistic: the code uses hierarchical RIFF chunks to emulate a JSON-like structure. This is a very wasteful representation (e.g., a `bool` or a null pointer each take up *8 bytes*), but the goal for now is to start with the simplest thing that could possibly work, and only add more cleverness once we are sure it won't get in the way of important future improvements (like lazy/on-demand deserialization or IR and AST, to improve compiler startup times).
The files `slang-serialize.{h,cpp}` have been co-opted to define a new pair of types `Encoder` and `Decoder` that are used for a more-or-less stream-oriented way or reading or writing RIFF chunks for the JSON-like structure.
Almost everything related to the actual AST serialization could do with a cleanup pass, and some time spent on picking good/better names for everything.

* SP004: implement initialize list translation to ctor
- We synthesize a member-wise constructor for each struct follow
the rules described in SP004.
- Add logic to translate the initialize list to constructor invoke
- Add cuda-host decoration for the synthesized constructor
- Remove the default constructor when we have a valid member init constructor
- Disable -zero-initialize option, will re-implement it in followup (#6109).
- Fix the overload lookup issue
When creating invoke expression for ctor, we need to call
ResolveInvoke() to find us the best candidates, however
the existing lookup logic could find us the base constructor
for child struct, we should eliminate this case by providing
the LookupOptions::IgnoreInheritance to lookup, this requires
us to create a subcontext on SemanticsVisitor to indicate that
we only want to use this option on looking the constructor.
- Do not implicit initialize a struct that doesn't have explicit default
constructor.

* Fix bug: IgnoreInheritance in lookup
When specifying IgnoreInheritance in lookup, it will ignore
all members in the self extension for generic, the reason is
that it doesn't specialize the target type of the extension
decl when comparing with self type, so it will result that every
type is unequal to the target type.

* Lower the priority of looking up the rank of scope
In the previous change of #5060, we propose a way to resolve
the ambiguous call when considering the scope of a function.
But this rule should be considered as a low priority than "specialized
candidate", aka. we should consider more "specialized candiate" first.
* Count distance between reference site to declaration site
Compare the candidate by calculating distance
from reference site to declaration site via nearest common prefix
in the scope tree.
This will involve finding the common parent node of two child nodes
and how sum the distance from the common parent to the two child nodes.
* Change the priority higher than 'getOverloadRank'
* Don't evaluate the scope rank algorithm on generic
If the candidate is generic function, the function parameters
won't be checked before 'CompareOverloadCandidates', so it will
results in that the candidates this function could be invalid.
We should not evaluate the distance algorithm in this case, instead
we will evaluate later when the candidate is in flavor of Func or Expr
since then all the type checks for the function will be done.

* Default (zero'd) values with `-zero-initialize` flag
Adds `-zero-initialize` flag to set values to a __default() expression if they are missing a initExpr.
* address review and ensure __default calls ctor + zero's fields.
1. We must keep zero-initialize in SemanticsDeclHeaderVisitor. This is done because else a ctor will be initialized before we can set struct fields to `__default`.
2. IRDefaultCtorDecoration was added to track default ctor's with parent struct.
3. ParentAggTypeModifier was added to track ChildOfStruct->IRType for sharing data such as with functions. This is required to ensure we associate a lowered function with a lowered struct type
* Removed decoration to track defaultCtor in favor of field.
This was done since decorations are checked for IR objects, storing auxillary info does not work here as a result if usable object.
* address some review comments
Since `IDefaultInitializable` is taking a considerabley larger amount of time than anticipated I am pushing some of the other fixes requested. I did not remove the "IRStruct storing a default Ctor" hack yet.
mostly renamed/adjusted tests to work as intended
added test to ensure we don't synthisize a junk `= 0` when not in `zero initialize` mode
removed member in favor of sharedContext+dictionary.
* a working but incorrect impl
* default init without any IR hacks (fully working aside from generic/containored-types)
* Finish zero init code
1. IDefaultInitializer interface was added. If conforming, your type may be zero-initialized. To Conform a `__init()` is required
2. `[OnlyAutoInitIfForced]` was added. This attribute states that a default initializer should only be implicitly called if forced by the compiler (`zero-initialize` for example). This allows types which implicitly/explicitly conform to IDefaultInitialize to have optional auto-init behavior (which is Slang's default for user structs) to be disabled.
* note about `[OnlyAutoInitIfForced]`. This is required for std-lib to not automatically resolve init-expressions for std-lib, but it has the added benifit of allowing user made structs/classes to control the default behavior of initializing
* fix ErrType assumption
* testing why dx12 fails local but passes CI
* push vector changes to generic test
* push syntax adjustment, still figuring out what is wrong with cuda.
* remove debug changes & adjust style
* fix field-init expressions with structs initializers
don't init a static in a ctor. This would be illegal code and wrong code (init list in lower-to-ir)
* minor adjustments temporarily while the rest of the issue is discussed
* fix
* implement IDefaultInitializable
* remove a unneeded whitespace change
* fix type checking error
should be checking if a valid type is `Type`, not `BasicExpressionType`
* needs to be DeclRefType, not Type
* fix langguage server error
* change findinheritance for correctness + cleanup
* remove return false
verified the issue was `findInheritance`
* push attempt at language server fix
* still trying to fix inheritance
* added extension support, remove redundant code
Did not address all review comments yet, want to see if CI also passes my changes
* undo a change which caused CI to fail
* change logic + DefaultConstructExpr
setup code to use defaultConstructExpr when possible to construct a default without overhead of invoke/related
also changed code so parent's defaultInitializable propegates to derived member
* 1. fix error in `isSubtype` 2. add flag to isSubtype
`subtypeInheritanceIsNotFullyResolved` was added since we may not be done the lookup stage but still require `isSubtype` checking to verify usage of inheritance while working with inheritance. In This case we will just skip `ensureLookup` and "caching" (since we don't have a cache invalidation system, nor need)
* fix bug in logic + add test to better catch the bug
* address comment + isSubTypeOption + wrapper type test,
* fix wrong code adjustment
I checked on the CI and realized I caused a failure, mistake was made not negating some code
* syntax, class naming capital
* remove stdlib default initialize changes, replace with `__default()` for init
* remove redundant code + fix defaultConstruct emitting
previously defaultConstruct emitting was crashing due to having generics unresolved. By not resolving the default construct immediately, everything works.
* remove a coment
* add test to ensure static variables dont `init` inside a struct's `__init`
* fix Ptr members breaking struct use
* address review and add -zero-initialize test
`-zero-initialize` test was added to be sure debug pointers are not broken with default init values
