* 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.

* 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).

* 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.

Based on review feedback from #1556, this change updates the Slang preprocessor so that it is no longer coupled to policy details from higher levels of the software stack. In particular, the preprocessor used to:
* Deal with updating the list of file paths that a `Module` depends on.
* (As of #1556) detect NVAPI-related macro definitions and use them to construct an AST-level `Modifier` attached to the `ModuleDecl`.
This change introduces a callback interface where the `Preprocessor` calls out to a `PreprocessorHandler` at certain points during execution, allowing the handler to introduce custom logic that suits a particular high-level use case.
This change also removes the dependence of the preprocessor on the `Linkage`, because in practice only a small number of its sub-objects were needed. As a convenience, a wrapper function that takes a `Linkage` was left in place so that the existing call sites didn't have to change very much.

In some cases, functionality is available as either a GLSL extension for Vulkan/SPIR-V, or through the NVAPI system for D3D. This situation creates complications because while GLSL extensions are generally all supported by the open-source glslang compiler (which we can bundle and ship), NVAPI operations are exposed through a specific header (`nvHLSLExtns.h`) that ships as part of the NVAPI SDK.
When a user wants to explicitly use NVAPI-provided operations in their shader code, there are no major complications for Slang; the user sets up their include paths, `#include`s the relevant header, calls functions in it, and lets Slang deal with the details of compilation.
The challenge for Slang arises when we want to provide a cross-platform interface in our standard library (e.g., the `RWByteAddressBuffer.InterlockedAddF32` method that was recently added) that uses either a GLSL extension (when compiling for Vulkan/SPIR-V) or an NVAPI (when compiling to DXBC or DXIL). In that case, the code *generated* by Slang now has a dependency on NVAPI, and we need to somehow emit a `#include` directive that pulls it in when invoking fxc or dxc. Because we do not (and seemingly cannot) bundle the NVAPI header with the compiler, we have to rely on ther user to have it available and to somehow communicate to Slang where it is.
Exposing portable routines that sometimes use NVAPI currently creates two main challenges:
1. The user is forced to interact with the "prelude" mechanism in the compiler, which allows the programmer to define code in a given target language that gets prepended to the Slang-generated code. While the prelude mechanism is powerful, it is also hard for users to integrate into their workflow, and our experience so far is that users want something that Just Works.
2. If the user writes code that uses some of our abstract operations that layer on NVAPI *and* they also want to use NVAPI explicitly, they end up with two copies of the NVAPI header (one included by the Slang front-end, and another included by the downstream fxc/dxc compiler). This puts the user in the situation of (a) having to ensure that they set the defines like `NV_SHADER_EXTN_SLOT` consistently both when invoking Slang and when adding their prelude, and (b) even if they do make the definitions consistent, they run into the problem that fxc/dxc complain about overlapping register bindings on the two copies of the `g_NvidiaExt` global shader paraemter that the NVAPI header declares.
This change attempts to resolve both issues by adding a lot of "do what I mean" logic to the compiler to try to ease things in the common case. In particular:
1. The user no longer needs to use the "prelude" mechanism when using NVAPI. The compiler now embeds a default prelude for HLSL output, which will `#include` the NVAPI header if and only if the generated code needs NVAPI access because of portable standard library routines that were used.
2. The user can mix-and-match explicit NVAPI use and stdlib functions that compile to use NVAPI. The register/space to be used by NVAPI when included via prelude is now set based on whatever the user set via the preprocessor so that it should automatically be consistent between both cases. Furthermore, the code we emit for the declaration of `g_NvidiaExt` when compiling explicit NVAPI use is set up to be conditional, so that it is skipped in the case where the prelude will pull in its own declaration of that parameter.
The way all this is achieved involves a lot of moving pieces:
* We now have an HLSL prelude, which mostly just serves to `#include "nvHLSLExtns.h"` in the case where NVAPI support is needed downstream.
* Standard library operations that require NVAPI for their implementation on HLSL include a new `[__requiresNVAPI]` attribute.
* The preprocessor has been extended so that after tokenizing an input file it looks up the NVAPI-relevant macros in the resulting environment, and if they are set it attached a modifier (`NVAPISlotModifier1) to the AST `ModuleDecl` that is based on their values. Logic is added to detect if multiple input files specify values for the macros in ways that conflict.
* The semantic checking step is extended so that it detects the "magic" NVAPI declarations (the `g_NvidiaExt` paramter and the `NvShaderExtnStruct` type that it uses) and attaches a modifier to them so that they can be identified as such in later steps.
* Parameter binding is extended to collect a list of the AST modifiers that reflect NVAPI binding, and to reserve the relevant register(s) so that ordinary user-defined parameters cannot conflict with them.
* IR lowering translates the three new AST modifiers related to NVAPI over to IR equivalents.
* IR linking is extended to make sure that it clones any `IRNVAPISlotDecoration`s attached to the input modules. The pass intentionally does not care where the modifiers came from; it just collects them all and leaves it to downstream code to sort out what they mean.
* Emit logic is extended to have a notion of "prelude directives" which are preprocessor directives that should come *before* the prelude in the generated code, because they can impact the way that the prelude compiles. This is done so that we don't have to introduce ad hoc logic for each downstream compiler to set any relevant `-D` flags (e.g., both fxc and dxc would need to duplicate such logic for NVAPI support).
* The HLSL source emitter is extended to track whether it emits any operations that require NVAPI support.
* The HLSL source emitter is extended to emit prelude directives based on whether NVAPI is needed and, if it is, to also set the register and space that NVAPI should use based on what was stored in the decoration(s) on the IR module.
* The HLSL source emitter is extended so that it detects global instructions that represent "magic" NVAPI constructs , and emit them as conditional definitions so that they are skipped when NVAPI is included via the prelude.
* The handling of requires capabilities during emit logic was cleaned up a bit so that more logic is shared across targets, and also so that the same logic is used both when emitting a function declaration/definition and when emitting a call to an instrinsic function (which won't get declared/defined).

* Embed default prelude for CUDA
Slang supports the notion of a "prelude" that gets prepended to the source code we generate in language. For some targets, a prelude is not necessary (e.g., we compile to HLSL/GLSL and then on to DXBC/DXIL/SPIR-V just fine without a prelude), but some targets have been implemented in a way that makes a prelude necessary (notably CPU and CUDA). For the targets that require a prelude, the Slang codebase includes usable preludes under the `prelude/` directory.
Prior to this change, if a user was compiling for such a target (whether via command-line or API), there had to take responsibility for specifying the prelude to use (usually by passing in the contents of the prelude file(s) already included in the Slang distribution).
It is reasonable for a user to expect an out-of-the-box experience where compilation to CUDA PTX or native CPU code should Just Work, similarly to how compilation to SPIR-V Just Works. This change is a step in the direction of providing a user experiene that Just Works for common cases.
The main addition here is a tool called `slang-embed` that we run during our build to turn the `prelude/*.h` files into `prelude/*.h.cpp` files that embed the contents of the original `.h` file as a `const` variable.
By compiling and linking in the generated `.h.cpp` file for the CUDA prelude, we are then able to set the default prelude to use for CUDA at the time a session/linkage is created. That default prelude will be used unless the user manually specifies their own prelude (which current users of the CUDA back-end must be doing).
This change only sets up a default prelude for CUDA because of the way that the CPU prelude is split across multiple files. A strategy that provides a good default prelude for CPU may take more work, but that work might also be unnecessary if we switch to a strategy of using LLVM to generate native code.
The implementation of the `slang-embed` tool is intentionally simple, and it will likely run into issues if/when we need to embed binary files or larger text files. The assumption being made here is that we can address those issues when they arise, and there is no reason to over-engineer the tool right now.
The way that `slang-embed` is integrated into our build process is likely to require some iteration to make sure that it works across all platforms. I expect that this change will have multiple follow-up fixes related to trying to get the build to work as expected across all targets on CI.
* fixup: trying to ensure that embedded prelude gets compiled into slang
* fixup: properly clean up allocations in slang-embed
* fixup: fix double free introduced by previous change
* fixup: off-by-one allocation error

* Fix premake5.lua so it uses the new path needed for OpenCLDebugInfo100.h
* Keep including the includes directory.
* Added the spirv-tools-generated files.
* We don't need to include the spirv/unified1 path because the files needed are actually in the spirv-tools-generated folder.
* Put the build_info.h glslang generated files in external/glslang-generated. Alter premake5.lua to pick up that header.
* First pass at documenting how to build glslang and spirv-tools.
* Improved glsl/spir-v tools README.md
* Added revision.h
* Change how gResources is calculated.
Update about revision.h
* Update docs a little.
* Split out spirv-tools into a separate project for building glslang. This was not necessary on linux, but *is* necessary on windows, because there is a file disassemble.cpp in spirv-tools and in glslang, and this leads to VS choosing only one. With the separate library, the problem is resolved.
* Fix direct-spirv-emit output.

* Removed inappropriate-once.slang - the test is no longer valid when a file is loaded and has a unique identity by default. A test could be made, but would require an API call to create the file (so no unique id).
Improved handling of loadFile - uses uniqueId if has one.
* Work around for testing target overlaps - to avoid exceptions on adding targets.
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.

* Fixes for IR generics
There are a few different fixes going on here (and a single test that covers all of them).
1. Fix optionality of trailing semicolon for `struct`s
======================================================
We have logic in the parser that tries to make a trailing `;` on a `struct` declaration optional. That logic is a bit subtle and couild potentially break non-idiomatic HLSL input, so we try to only trigger it for files written in Slang (and not HLSL). For command-line `slangc` this is based on the file extension (`.slang` vs. `.hlsl`), and for the API it is based on the user-specified language.
The missing piece here was that the path for handling `import`ed code was *not* setting the source language of imported files at all, and so those files were not getting opted into the Slang-specific behavior. As a result, `import`ed code couldn't leave off the semicolon.
2. Fix generic code involving empty `interface`s
================================================
We have logic that tries to only specialize "definitions," but the definition-vs-declaration distinction at the IR level has historically been slippery. One corner case was that a witness table for an interface with no methods would always be considered a declaration, because it was empty. The notion of what is/isn't a definition has been made more nuanced so that it amounts to two main points:
* If something is decorated as `[import(...)]`, it is not a definition
* If something is a generic/func (a declaration that should have a body), and it has no body, it is a declaration
Otherwise we consider anything a definition, which means that non-`[import(...)]` witness tables are now definitions whether or not they have anything in them.
3. Fix IR lowering for members of generic types
===============================================
The IR lowering logic was trying to be a little careful in how it recurisvely emitted "all" `Decl`s to IR code. In particular, we don't want to recurse into things like function parameters, local variables, etc. since those can never be directly referenced by external code (they don't have linkage).
The existing logic was basically emitting everything at global scope, and then only recursing into (non-generic) type declarations. This created a problem where a method declared inside a generic `struct` would not be emitted to the IR for its own module at all *unless* it happened to be called by other code in the same module.
The fix here was to also recurse into the inner declaration of `GenericDecl`s. I also made the code recurse into any `AggTypeDeclBase` instead of just `AggTypeDecl`s, which means that members in `extension` declarations should not properly be emitted to the IR.
Conclusion
==========
These fixes should clear up some (but not all) cases where we might emit an `/* unhandled */` into output HLSL/GLSL. A future change will need to make that path a hard error and then clean up the remaining cases.
* fixup: tabs->spaces

This change adds logic for parsing `namespace` declarations, referencing them, and looking up their members.
* The parser changes are a bit subtle, because that is where we deal with the issue of "re-opening" a namespace. We kludge things a bit by re-using an existing `NamespaceDecl` in the same parent if one is available, and thereby ensure that all the members in the same namespace can see on another.
* In order to allow namespaces to be referenced by name they need to have a type so that a `DeclRefExpr` to them can be formed. For this purpose we introduce `NamespaceType` which is the (singleton) type of a reference to a given namespace.
* The new `NamespaceType` case is detected in the `MemberExpr` checking logic and routed to the same logic that `StaticMemberExpr` uses, and the static lookup logic was extended with support for looking up in a namespace (a thin wrapper around one of the existing worker routines in `slang-lookup.cpp`.
* I made `NamespaceDecl` have a shared base class with `ModuleDecl` in the hopes that this would allow us to allow references to modules by name in the future. That hasn't been tested as part of this change.
* I cleaned up a bunch of logic around `ModuleDecl` holding a `Scope` pointer that was being used for some of the more ad hoc lookup routines in the public API. Those have been switched over to something that is a bit more sensible given the language rules and that doesn't rely on keeping state sititng around on the `ModuleDecl`.
* I added a test case to make sure the new funcitonality works, which includes re-opening a namespace, and it also tests both `.` and `::` operations for lookup in a namespace.
* The main missing feature here is the ability to do something like C++ `using`. It would probably be cleanest if we used `import` for this, since we already have that syntax (and having both `import` and `using` seems like a recipe for confusion). Most of the infrastructure is present to support `import`ing one namespace into another (in a way that wouldn't automatically pollute the namespace for clients), but some careful thought needs to be put into how import of namespaces vs. modules should work.

This is pretty straightforward, because we were calling `Session::init` (which can retain/release the session) on a `Session*` (no reference held).
The catch is that our current tests use the older form of the Slang API, while Falcor relies on the newer API, and so the recent change to our reference-counting logic introduced a regression that we didn't detect in testing.
This change just fixes the direct issue but doesn't address the gap in testing. A better long-term fix would be to fully define our "1.0" API, shift our testing to it, and layer the old API on top of it (to try and avoid regressions for client code).
