* Include a "stack trace" with nested-import errors
When errors occur in nested `#include` files it is often helpful to have a "stack trace" / traceback of the `#include` chain that led from a root translation unit to the file with an error.
This change implements a similar feature for `import`s.
It is worth noting that `import`s don't really *require* this kind of compiler support the way `#include`s do because the intention is that the meaning of an `import`ed file does not depend on the order or nesting of `import`s. As such, when trying to *fix* an error in an `import`ed file, you usually don't care how it came to be `import`ed into your shaders.
The use case here is somebody adapting a large body of Slang code to use in a different codebase, such that they have certain `.slang` files they don't actually intend to have compile correctly, and they want to be able to diagnose how they came to include those files when/if they cause problems.
The actual feature implementation is pretty simple because we already track a stack of active `import`s so that we can detect and diagnose recursive `import`s. This change simply changes the disagnostics when there is an error in imported code so that instead of just noting the inner-most `import` site it lists all the `import` sites that were active at the time.
The change includes a test case to confirm that the behavior works (at least for the case of a parse error).

* Add a CPU renderer implementation
This change adds a CPU back-end to `gfx` and ensures that most of our existing CPU tests pass when using it.
Detailed notes:
* Most of the CPU renderer implementation is copy-pasted from the CUDA case, so they share a lot of similar logic
* The main addition to the CPU renderer is a semi-complete implementation of host-memory textures. The logic here handles all the main shapes (Buffer, 1D, 2D, 3D, Cube) and all the currently-supported `Format`s that are sample-able as-is (no D24S8). The implementation is not intended to be fast, and it currently only does nearest-neighbor sampling, but otherwise it tries to avoid cutting too many corners and should be ar reasonable starting point for a more complete (but not performance-oriented) implementation.
* Refactored the CPU prelude `IRWTexture` interface to inherit from `ITexture`, since in most cases a single type will end up implementing both. It might be worth it to collapse it all down to a single interface later.
* Changed the CPU prelude `ITexture`/`IRWTexture` interface so that it takes both a pointer *and* a size for output arguments. This change seems necessary to allow a shader variable declared as a `Texture2D<float>` to fetch a single `float` when the underlying texture might be using RGBA32F.
* Added to the `IComponentType` public API so that we can query a "host callable" for an entry point and not just a binary.
* Turned off the `-shaderobj` flag on two tests that weren't yet compatible with shader objects but still had the flag left in on the path (since previously the CPU path always used the non-`gfx` non-shader-object logic anyway)
* Disabled one test (`dynamic-dispatch-11`) that relied on the `ConstantBuffer<IInterface>` idiom that we know we are planning to chagne soon anyway.
* Made a few changes to the CUDA path to bring it into line with what I added for the CPU path. These were mostly bug fixes around indexing logic for sub-objects and resources.

* Use "capability" system to select VKRT extension
Slang currently supports translation of ray tracing shader code to Vulkan GLSL code that uses the `GL_NV_ray_tracing` extension. A multi-vendor equivalent of that extension has been released as `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` and we want Slang to support that extension as well.
At the simplest, making the change from one extension to the other is just a matter of changing a few strings, since it does not appear that anything of significance was changed at the GLSL level (or even in SPIR-V). Where this gets trickier is when we have users who want us to support *both* extensions, and to be able to switch between them.
The solution we've implemented here more or less amounts to:
* If you don't tell the compiler which extension to use, it will default to `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` (the newer multi-vendor one).
* If you explicitly want the older extension, you can opt into it using the `-profile` option or via a new API for explicitly adding capabilities to your target.
Making that work required a few different kinds of changes:
* The options parsing and public API needed ways to add optional capabilities to a target.
* During GLSL code emit, we can check the capabilities that were added to the target to see if the `GL_NV_ray_tracing` extension was explicitly enabled and, if not, default to using the `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` names for things. This step is needed because some of the modifiers/attributes involved in the extension have to be handled explicitly in the code generator rather than implicitly as part of mapping intrinsic functions.
* We add two different translations to the relevant operatiosn in the stdlib, one marked with each of the extensions. If profile/capability-based overload resolution can be relied on to pick the right one, this should Just Work.
* Next, a bunch of work had to go into making capability-based overloading Just Work for the purposes of this change. There's been a nearly complete reworking of the implementation of `CapabilitySet` here to make it more suitable for our needs.
* The tests that were using ray tracing translation for Vulkan needed to be updated. For some of them I updated their baselines to use `GL_EXT_ray_tracing` so that they can test the new path. For others, I updated the command line for the test case so that it explicitly opts into using `GL_NV_ray_tracing`. The result is that we have some coverage of each extension. I would have liked to have each test run in both modes, but our pass-through glslang support doesn't support `-D` options, so I couldn't take that step easily.
This change does *not* add support for `GL_EXT_ray_query`, the extension that supports "DXR 1.1" style queries under Vulkan. Adding support for that extension should hopefully be a smaller step because it doesn't have the same multiple-extensions issue.
This change does *not* address a lot of possible avenues for improvement or cleanup around the capability system. It focuses only on those changes that are necessary to make the ray tracing feature work and leaves the rest for future work.

* Comment-only change to retrigger TC build

* Add first steps toward a "capability" system
We already have cases in the stdlib where we mark declarations as being specific to certain targets, e.g.:
```
// My ordinary function to add two numbers.
// Works everywhere.
//
void myFunc(int a, int b) { return a + b; }
// On the "coolgpu" target, we can use a secret intrinsic
// that adds numbers even faster!
//
__specialized_for_target(coolgpu)
void myFunc(int a, int b) { return __secretIntrinsic(a, b); }
```
The existing logic for dealing with these modifiers (`__specialized_for_target` and `__target_intrinsic`) was almost entirely string-based. We would turn the chosen compilation target into a string, and then use that to try and search for the "best" definition of a function at a few steps:
* During IR linking, we always pick one definition of an `[import]`ed function, and that definition will be the one with the "best" target-specialization modifier (if any)
* During final code generation, we always look up the "best" target-intrinsic modifier, and use it as the template for the code we output.
This change preserves the basic flow there, but replaces the ad hoc string-based logic with something a bit more principled, in terms of a new `CapabilitySet` type.
A `CapabilitySet` represents a set of zero or more atomic features (here represented as `CapabilityAtom`s). What a `CapabilitySet` means depends on how and where it is used:
* A compilation target implies a `CapabilitySet` where the contents of the set are the features the target *supports*.
* A `CapabilitySet` attached to a declaration (or a modifier on that declaration) describes a set of feature that declaration *requires*.
The current implementation of `CapabilitySet` is wasteful and inefficient, but that is something we can iterate on over time.
In practice, most of the current code only ever uses capability sets that are either empty (because they represent a function with no specific requirements) or singleton (because they represent asingle atomic capability like "is a GLSL target," "is an HLSL target," etc.).
The main goal here was to put in the skeleton of a new system, including some of the features it might need down the line, and then to leave changes that eventually use the greater flexibility for later. Eventually, the capability system should encompass:
* Differences between shader model versions, GLSL versions, SPIR-V versions, etc. (currently tracked with other modifiers)
* Optional extensions, and functions that are made available only with certain extensions (currently tracked with other modifiers)
* Front-end checking that the call graph of a program doesn't violate any capability-requirements (e.g., having a GLSL+HLSL portable function call a GLSL-only subroutine)
* Hypothetically we can also try to fold stage-specific (vertex-only, fragment-only, etc.) functions into this system, but doing so would require more linker cleverness if we allow overloading on stages (since we might have to clone a caller if it calls through to a callee with multiple stage-specific versions)
One important complication that the system has to deal with just because of the "do what I mean" nature of the current compiler is that somethings a current Slang user might compile for target X and specify version N, but then use a function that actually requires version N+1 of that target. Currently the Slang compiler silently "upgrades" the version(s) used by user code in these cases, because it is often what users want in cross-compilation scenarios.
Dealing with the "silent upgrade" situation requires us to be a little careful and sometimes pick a "best" capability set that doesn't appear to be supported on our target. Refining that system and potentially getting rid of the "do what I mean" behavior over time could be a goal for future changes.

* "Shader Toy" example and related fixes
This change introduces a new `shader-toy` example program that is primarily designed to show how Slang's features for type-based encapsulation and modularity can be applied to modularity for effects along the lines of those from `shadertoy.com`.
The Example
-----------
The example is being checked in with an example "toy" effect that I hastily put together, so that it would not be encumbered with any IP concerns. I wrote the effect using the shadertoy.com editor, so I can be sure it is valid GLSL. During bringup of the application I used a pre-existing and larger effect for testing, so some of the support code that was added is not being used at present.
The big-picture idea here is to have an exmaple that shows how to modularize things using Slang interfaces and generics, and then to use the Slang compiler API to manage the compilation, composition, specialization, and linking steps. For better or worse this leads to the sequence of API calls involved being much longer than what was in something like the `hello-world` example.
Future Work (Example)
---------------------
There is a lot of room for improvement and expansion here, so this should be viewed as a checkpoint of work in progress rather than something I'm claiming as a finalized demonstration of all we'd like to achieve. Areas for future work include:
* We need to copy the integration of "Dear, IMGUI" that was already done for the `model-viewer` example so that this example can have a UI.
* Now that the compilation flow is broken into all these additional steps, it should be possible to have the application load multiple effects as distinct modules, and then provide a UI for switching between them. The chosen effect module would be used to specialize the top-level shader(s) before kernel generation.
* The checked-in logic includes a compute shader that can execute an effect, but that hasn't been tested nor has it been wired up to any kind of UI. We should have a way to switch between multiple execution methods, with a goal of eventually including CPU execution.
* The "GLSL compatibility" code needs a lot of improvements before it is likely to be usable for a nontrivial number of shaders. Some of that work is waiting on Slang compiler fixes, though.
* We should consider allowing the individual "toy" effects to define their own uniform parameters and expose those via a UI and reflection. The catch in this case is not that this would be difficult to do, but that it would be a semantic change to how shader toy effects currently work.
The Compiler Fixes
------------------
Doing this work exposed a few bugs in Slang, and this change includes fixes for the ones that were quick to address.
We already had logic in `slang-check-shader.cpp` that was validating the entry points in a compile request - either by checking the explicitly-listed entry points, or by scanning for `[shader("...")]` attributes. The problem is that the routine that did that checking was not being invoked on all compiles. The logic that handled entry points was only being run for manual compiles using `SlangCompileRequest`, while anything using `import` or `loadModule` would ignore entry points. I refactored the relevant code into a subroutine that will be invoked in all compilation scenarios.
There were already `TODO` comments in `SpecializedComponentType` which made the point about how a specialized entry point like `myShader<YourType>` would need to properly show that it has dependencies on both the module that defines `myShader` *and* the module that defines `YourType`, while only the former was being handled at present. I went ahead and implemented the logic to scan the generic arguments for a specialized compoment type in order to determine what module(s) the arguments depend on (both type arguments and witness tables). With that change, using `IComponentType::link` on a specialized component will properly pull in the module(s) that the generic arguments come from.
In `slang-ir-legalize-types.cpp` we could run into assertion failures in debug builds because of code trying to legalize layout `IRAttr`s for fields or parameters with types that need legalization. In practice it is safe to skip these layout attributes, because legalization of the fields/parameters they pertain to would result in creation of entirely new layout attributes, and the old ones would then be unreferenced.
Future Work (Fixes)
-------------------
There are other compiler bugs that this work exposed, but which this change does not address. These will need to be resolved as part of subsequent changes:
* Slang allows for default-initialization of variables of a generic type. That is, given `<T : ISomething>` a user is allowed to declare `T x = {};` and the Slang front-end does not complain. Instead, this leads to an internal compiler error during IR lowering.
* The Slang `__init()` feature probably needs to be upgraded to a properly supported feature, and we probably need a way to make implementing default-initialization an easy thing (e.g., any `struct` type that has initial-value expressions for all its fields should automatically and implicitly satsify an `init();` requirement declared in an interface)
* Iniside an `__init()` definition, code has mutable access to members of the enclosing type, but for some reason the front-end is incorrectly treating `this` as immutable in those contexts. As a result you can write to `someField` but not `this.someField`.
* User-defined operator overloads flat out don't work (which isn't surprising given that no clients have decided to use them yet, and we have no test coverage for them). This is actually due to the shadowing rules being used for lookup right now, so a fix for this issue is going to have far-reaching consequences around what overloads are visible where (and anything that impacts overload resolution is a big can of worms, including around performance).

Overview
========
Prior to this change, we had two different code generation strategies for interface/existential types in Slang, that didn't always play nicely together:
* The "legacy" static specialization approach could handle plugging in an arbitrary concrete type for an existential type parameter (including types with resources, etc.), but wouldn't work well with things like a `StructuredBuffer<>` of an interface type, and requires somewhat counter-intuitive layout rules to make work.
* The new dynamic dispatch approach produces simpler, more easily understood layouts by assuming that values of interface type can fit into a fixed number of bytes. The tradeoff there is that it cannot handle types that include resources (only POD types).
The goal of this change is to make it so that the two strategies can co-exist. In particular, in cases where a shader is amenable to both static specialization and dynamic dispatch, the type layouts should agree.
In order to make the type layouts agree, we:
* Declare that *all* values of existential type reserve storage according to the dynamic-dispatch rules (so 16 bytes for the RTTI and witness-table information, plus whatever bytes are needed to story "any value" of a conforming type).
* Then we modify the "legacy" layout rules so that if a value of concrete type can fit in the reserved "any value" space for a given interface, then it is laid out there exactly like the dynamic dispatch rules would do. Otherwise, we fall back to the previous legacy rules (since we don't need to agree with the dynamic-dispatch layout on types that can't be used with dynamic dispatch).
Details
=======
* Renamed `ExistentialBox` to `BoundInterfaceType` to better clarify how it relates to `BindExistentialsType`
* Unconditionally apply the `lowerGenerics` pass during emit, since it is now responsible for aspects of the lowering of existential types when specialization is used.
* Made IR type layout take the target into account, so that the layout of resource types can vary by target (e.g., being POD on some targets, and invalid on others)
* Cleaned up some issues around using global shader parameters as the "key" for their layout information in the global-scope layout (only comes up when there are global-scope `uniform` parameters)
* Made there be a default any-value size (16) instead of making it be an error to leave out. This was the simplest option; we could try to go back to having an error, but we'd need to only issue it if we are sure a type/interface is being used with dynamic dispatch, since static dispatch doesn't have to obey the restrictions.
* Changed lowering of existential types to tuples so that bound interfaces where the concrete type won't fit use a "pseudo-pointer" instead of an "any-value" to hold the payload
* Changed IR type legalization to handle the "pseudo-pointer" case and apply layout information from an interface type over to the payload part when static specialization was used.
* Changed some details of how witness tables were being lowered, so that we didn't have to create "proxy" witness tables for the constraints on associated types (just use the actual requirement entries we generate)
* Changed witness tables so that they know the subtype doing the conforming
* Added logic so that we don't generate pack/unpack logic and witness table wrapper functions for types that are incompatible with any-value/dynamic dispatch for a given interface.
* Changed the core AST-level type layout logic to use the dynamic-dispatch layout in case things fit, and the legacy static specialization case when things don't (while also reserving space for the dynamic-dispatch fields)
* Changed a bunch of test cases for static specialization to properly use the new layout (which introduces new buffers in some cases, and moves data around in others).
Future Work
===========
The experience of trying to reconcile our older way of handling interface-type specialization with our newer model (that supports dynamic dispatch) makes it clear that we really need to make similar changes to our handling of generic type parameters on entry points and at the global scope.
A future change should make it so that a global type parameter is lowered with a type layout similar to a value parameter of interface type, including the RTTI and witness-table pieces, and just leaving out the "any value" piece. A similar translation strategy should apply to entry-point generic parameters (mirroring how we lower generic functions for dynamic dispatch already), and value specialization parameters.

* Add API for whole program compilation.
This change exposes a new target flag: `SLANG_TARGET_FLAG_GENERATE_WHOLE_PROGRAM` that can be set on a target with `spSetTargetFlags`. When this flag is set, `spCompile` function generates target code for the entire input module instead of just the specified entrypoints. The resulting code will include all the entrypoints defined in the input source.
The resulting whole program code can be retrieved with two new functions: `spGetTargetCodeBlob` and `spGetTargetHostCallable`.
This change also cleans up the unnecessary `entryPointIndices` parameter of `TargetProgram::getOrCreateWholeProgramResult`, and modifies the `cpu-hello-world` example to make use of the new whole-program compilation API to simplify its logic.

* Search for multiple NVRTC versions
The main change here is that when locating the NVRTC compiler we try multiple library names and take the first one that loads successfully (with an ordering that means we try newer versions before older ones).
In order to support this change, I needed to fix the wrapping logic that invokes the downstream compiler "locator" function, so that it does not report every failed dynamic library load as an error diagnostic (leading to compilation failure), but instead only reports such failures once the locator has reported failure.
The form of the diagnostic output for failures is also changed, in that we now report a single umbrella error about failing to load a downstream compiler, and then report the actuall dynamic library load failures as notes on that diagnostic instead of errors of their own. This choice seems appropriate since for cases like NVRTC it is *not* the case that each failed library load is a compilation error. We only need one of the listed libraries to be loadable, so that reporting them all as errors risks confusing users.
One wrinkle that arose during testing is that the 11.0 release of NVRTC dropped support for the `compute_30` target, which had previously been the minimum and default. I had to add logic to check for versions of 11 or greater and switch to `compute_35` as the default. Similar changes may be required as part of supporting newer NVRTC versions if support for more architectures gets deprecated and removed.
A more complete implementation of this logic might try to load multiple NVRTC versions such that the Slang compiler can identify a suitable compiler based on the minimum feature level that code actually requires. That kind of cleanup is left as future work, since for most users the current approach will be sufficient.

Simplify PathInfo setup.
Modify single-target-intrinsic.slang - it no longer failed because there were no longer multiple definitions for the same target.

During semantic checking, the compiler used to link together `ExtensionDecl`s into a singly-linked list dangling off of the `AggTypeDecl` that they applied to. This approach made lookup relatively easy, because given a `DeclRef` to an `AggTypeDecl` one could easily find and walk the list of candidate extensions.
Unfortunately, the simple approach has two major strikes against it:
* First, as we recently ran into, it creates a lifetime/ownership problem, in cases where the `ExtensionDecl` is outlived by the `AggTypeDecl` it applies to. This creates the one and only place in the compiler today where an "old" AST node might point to a "new" AST node, and it resulted in use-after-free problems in client code.
* Second, the scoping of `extension`s ends up being completely wrong. All of the `extension` methods on a type end up being visible in all cases, instead of just in the context of modules where the `extension` itself is visible. The comparable feature in C# (static extension methods) is careful to not make scoping mistakes like this. The Swift langauge has loose scoping for `extension` more akin to what we have in Slang today, but the maintainers seem to consider it a misfeature.
This change attempts to clean up both issues by changing the way that extension declarations are stored. There are two main pieces:
1. The primary "source of truth" for extension lookup has been moved to the `ModuleDecl`, where a module is responsible for storing a cache of the extensions declared within that module (keyed by the declaration of the type being extended). This cache is updated at the same point where the old code would mutate the AST node being depended on.
2. A secondary aggregated cache is added to the `SharedSemanticsContext` used during semantic checking. This cache includes entries from across multiple modules, and is intended to be invalidated and rebuilt on demand if new modules are added during checking.
Access to the candidate extensions has now been put behind subroutines that require a semantics-checking context to be passed in (there was always one available in contexts that care about extensions).
In addition, the operation for looking up members including those from extensions was refactored heavily to involve internal rather than external iteration and, more importantly, was changed so that it actually tests whether the `ExtensionDecl`s it loops over apply to the type in question, rather than blindly letting extensions members be looked up in ways that don't make sense.
There are three test cases added here to confirm aspects of the fix:
* First, I added a test that reproduces the crash that was being seen, so that we have a regression test for the fix.
* Second, I added a basic semantic-checking test to confirm that an `extension` from an `import`ed module is still visible/usable, to confirm that I didn't break existing valid uses of extensions.
* Third, I added a diagnostic test that ensures that we correctly ignore extensions that should not be visible in a given context as a result of `import` declarations.
