* Initial work on representing layout at IR level
This change starts the process of making the back-end of the compiler independent of the AST-level layout information (`TypeLayout`, `VarLayout`, etc.) so that it instead only relies on layout information that is embedded into IR modules. This brings us incrementally closer to a world in which the back-end could be run without the AST-level structures even existing (e.g., for an application that just wants to ship IR without any AST information for IP protection, while still supporting some amount of linking and specialization).
The main parts of the change are:
* There is a bunch of incidental churn related to specifying entry points by index instead of the `EntryPoint` object for certain operations. This ends up being a better choice because we can use the index to look up side-band information about the entry point that might not be stored on the `EntryPoint` object itself. In particular...
* We expand the `ComponentType` interface to support looking up the mangled name of an entry point by index. In common cases (no generic/interface specialization) this would be the same as asking the `EntryPoint` for its mangled name, but in cases where we have specialized a generic entry point, the mangled name would include speicalization arguments that are only available on the `SpecializedComponentType` that wraps the entry point. This part of the change isn't ideal and there might be a better solution waiting to be invented. Note that we store mangled entry point names as strings rather than using `DeclRef`s because that ensures that the information could be serialized and deserialized without a dependence on the AST.
* The `TargetProgram` type (which represents binding a specific `ComponentType` for a shader program to a specific `TargetRequest` that represents the target platform) is expanded to include an `IRModule` that represents layout information, in addition to the AST-level `ProgramLayout` it already contained. We create both of these objects at the same time (on-demand) to simplify the overall flow (so that any code that triggers creation of the AST-level layout will also ensure that the IR-level layout exists).
* A bunch of code in the emit passes that was passing down layout-related objects has been eliminated. It appears that most of those objects weren't actually being used, so this is just a cleanup, but it helps ensure that the back-end steps are "clean" and don't depend on the AST-level information. The one big exception here is that the emit logic needs to know the stage for the entry point being emitted (to deal with one wrinkle in translating DXR to VKRT).
* A big change (actually introduced by @jsmall-nvidia in a branch that this change copied and then built from) is to introduce some more explicit IR instructions to represent layout information, notably an `IRTypeLayout` and an `IRVarLayout`. For now these objects still reference their AST equivalents, but the separation gives us an incremental path to move information from the AST-level objects over to the IR ones. This work includes logic in `IRBuilder` to construct the IR-level layout objects from the AST-level ones on-demand, so that the existing code paths that try to attach AST-level layout will continue to work for now.
* Because layout information is now embedded in the IR, the `slang-ir-link.cpp` logic loses a lot of cases that used to deal with attaching AST-level layout objects to IR-level instructions during the linking process. Instead, the linker now assumes that one (or more) of the input IR modules will have layout information associated with it, and the linker makes sure to copy layout decorations (and the instructions they reference) from the input IR module(s) to the output using its more ordinary mechanisms.
* Inside `slang-lower-to-ir.cpp`, we add logic to construct an IR module in a `TargetProgram` that simply references the global shader parameters, entry points, etc. and attaches IR layout decorations to them. This is akin to the existing pass in the same file that constructs IR to represent specialization information, and both of these passes share infrastructure with the main AST->IR lowering pass. Eventually, it is expected that this pass will encompass more of the logic for copying AST-level layout information over to IR-level equivalents.
* One small wrinkle with this change was that the output for an HLSL generation test case changed some of its `#line` directives. The old code was actually more inaccurate than the new, so this change just updated the baseline. It also added some logic in the linker to make sure that when an IR instruction has multiple definitions, we try to pick up a source location from any of them, in case the "main" one somehow didn't get a location.
* Another small fix was that the key/value map in `StructTypeLayout` for mapping fields/members to their layouts was keyed on `Decl*` when it really should have been `VarDeclBase*`.
This change should in principle be a pure refactoring with no functionality changes, so no new tests were added. It is unfortunately also a change that has a high probability of breaking at least *some* client code, so we may want to be defensive and mark this with a new major version number (well, a new *minor* version number since we are pre-`1.0`) to give us some room for releasing hotfixes to the old version if needed.

Work on #1059
The `%` operator in the Slang implementation had several issues, and this change tries to address some of them:
* Renamed most occurences of "mod" describing this operator to be "rem" for "remainder" to better match its semantics in HLSL
* Split the operator into distinct integer and floating-point variants (`IRem` and `FRem`) to simplify having different codegen for the two
* Added floating-point variants of `operator%` and `operator%=` to the stdlib.
* Added custom C++ codegen for `kIROp_FRem` such that it maps to the standard C/C++ `remainder()` function
* Added custom GLSL codegen so that `kIROp_FRem` maps to the GLSL `mod()` function (which isn't correct...)
* Added a test case to confirm that D3D11, D3D12, and CPU targets all agree on the definition of floating-point `%`
* Fixed `render-test-tool` to allow a negative integer in a `data=...` specification. This didn't end up being used in the final test, but still seems like a good fix.
* Added a customized baseline for the Vulkan flavor of that test to confirm that we are *not* compiling correctly to SPIR-V just yet
Addressing the correctness of the output for GLSL/SPIR-V will have to come as a later change given that the operation we want is not exposed directly by unextended GLSL.

It was possible for a recursive call to `tryRemoveTriviailPhi` to remove/replace a phi node that was already in a list of removal candidates to be processed. When the recursive call returned and that candidate was again considered, its operands would have already been cleared, leading to an assertion failure.
This case is what was coming up in practice in a user shader, although I have not been able to reproduce the failure with a more minimal synthetic test yet.
This change also changes the SSA creation logic to avoid a runtime crash in the case of a trivial phi that only references itself (which was how the above bug surfaced to the user). The "fix" there is not ideal (it leaves a trivial phi behind), but should be enough to retain semantic correctness if user code ever causes that (corneer-case) code path to execute. It is also expected that such a trivial phi would be removed in later DCE passes anyway.

* Revisions to "new" Slang API based on use in Falcor
As I've been integrating the new/revised Slang API (using the "COM-lite" interfaces) I've run into some cases where the API was either missing features or didn't really work as originally implemented. This change fixes the gaps/problems that came up.
There are two main things here:
1. Some of the routines that returned an `IComponentType*` as a function result weren't actually doing anythign to retain the object they returned (e.g., putting it into a cache). Leaving aside the question of whether we need to add that caching layer, it made sense to instead have the return be through an output argument. Discussion after the initial iteration of the COM-lite API came around to the point that properly reference-counting objects that get returned would be useful if we ever decide we don't like having ever-expanding memory usage for caches of specialized/composed component types.
2. There was no way with the existing API to get at an `IComponentType` that represents an entry point produced during compilation, so that a user could include it in their own composition. This change alters `spCompileRequest_getProgram` to return the global program *without* the entry points, and adds a separate `spCompileRequest_getEntryPoint`. This design lets an application compose whatever combination/layout they want, rather than being stuck with a pre-designed composition baked into the compiler.

* Update signatures for Shader Model 6 functions
We originally culled out list of Shader Model 6 function prototypes from some combination of MSDN and the dxc wiki, but this was when things were in a pre-release state and the names of many functions changed (as well as some functions being added/removed).
For this change, I initially tried to look at MSDN, but the documentation there was internally inconsistent and included things like misspellings in function names (which I *hoped* weren't accurate to the real implementation). Instead, I looked at the meta-program input that dxc uses to generate its intrinsic definitions and used that to discover the updated function names along with what was added/removed, a few signature differences, and some extra functions that don't even seem to be documented at all on MSDN>
These have *not* been tested in any meaningful way, so this is really a best-effort thing. Given that most of the old functions had the wrong names there was no way for them to be used in working code anyway, so this is unlikely to cause breakage.

The set of supported operations in front-end constant folding was very limited: `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, and `%`.
This meant that enum declarations like:
```
enum MyBits
{
A = 1 << 0,
B = 1 << 1,
C = A | C,
}
```
would fail to compile, with a claim that the expressions like `1 << 0` aren't compile-time constants.
This change adds `<<`, `>>`, `&`, `|`, and `^` to the list of integer operations we will cosntant-fold in the front-end. It also changes one of the declarations in the existing test case for `enum`s to use the added functionality.
Note that this change does *not* address the more deep-seated problems with our approach to constant-folding in the front-end. It does not change the constant folding to rely on IR machinery, or to allow for more general `constexpr` functions, and it does not address the fact that constant-folding is currently applied without paying attention to the type (and thus precision) of the original expression.

* Make SlangSession an alias for slang::IGlobalSession.
Use asInternal/asExternal for casting in slang.cpp
Special case handling of asInternal which argument dependent lookup doesn't find.
* To improve implementation asInternal/asExternal in slang.cpp - tried making the internal impls forward to the Slang:: implementations. This caused ambiguities (for example when a function has using namespace Slang in it). To avoid these problems and make it clear where implementation is coming from use Slang::asInternal and removed the forwarding functions.
Made the impls SLANG_FORCE_INLINE instead of inline.
* Made asInternal/asExternal use SLANG_FORCE_INLINE uniformly.

* Revise new COM-lite API
This change revises the "COM-lite" API that was recently introduced to try to streamline it and introduce some missing central/base concepts.
The central new abstraction in the API is the notion of a "component type," which is a unit of shader code composition. A component type can have:
* IR code for some number of functions/types/etc.
* Zero or more global shader parameters
* Zero or more "entry point" functions at which execution can start
* Zero or more "specialization" parameters (types or values that must be filled in before kernel code can be generated)
* Zero or more "requirements" (dependencies on other component types that must be satisfied before kernel code can be generated)
Both individual compiled modules, and validated entry points are then examples of component types, and we additionally define a few services that apply to all component types:
* We can take N component types and compose them to create a new component type that combines their code, shader parameters, entry points, and specialization parameters. A composed component type may also include requirements from the sub-component types, but it is also possible that by composing thing we satisfy requirements (if `A` requires `B`, and we compose `A` and `B`, then the requirement is now satisfied, and doesn't appear on the composite).
* We can take a component type with N specialization parameters, and specialize it by giving N compatible specialization arguments. The result of specialization is a new component type with zero specialization parameters. Under the right circumstances the specialzed component type will be layout compatible with the unspecialized one.
* One more example that isn't exposed in the public API today is that we can take a component with requirements and "complete" it by automatically composing it with component types that satisfy those requirements. This can be seen as a kind of linking step that pulls together the transitive closure of dependencies.
* We can query the layout for the shader parameters and entry points of a component type, for a specific target.
* We can query compiled kernel code for an entry point in a component type (for a specific target). This only works for component types with zero specialization parameters and zero requirements.
The idea is that by giving users a fairly general algebra of operations on component types, they can compose final programs in ways that meet their requirements. For example, it becomes possible to incrementally "grow" a component type to represent the global root signature for ray tracing shaders as new entry points are added, in such a way that it always stays layout-compatible with kernels that have already been compiled.
Much of the implementation work here is in implementing the unifying component type abstraction, and in particular re-writing code that used to assume a program consisted of a flat list of modules and entry points to work with a hierarchical representation that reflects the underlying algebra (e.g., with types to represent composite and specialized component types).
There's also a hidden "legacy" case of a component type to deal with some legacy compiler behaviors that can't be directly modeled on top of the simple algebra with modules and entry points.
This API is by no means feature-complete or fully developed. It is expected that we will flesh it out more when bringing up application code (e.g., Falcor) on top of the revamped API.
One notable thing that went away in this change is explicit support for "entry point groups" and notions of local root signatures (especially the Falcor-specific handling of the `shared` keyword, which a previous change turned into an explicitly supported feature). With the new "building blocks" approach, it should be possible for a DXR application to deal with local root signatures as a matter of policy (on top of the API we provide). If/when we need to provide some kind of emulation of local root signatures for Vulkan (and/or if Vulkan is extended with an explicit notion of local root signatures), we might need to revisit this choice.

If the user writes code like this:
MyStruct s = (MyStruct) 0;
then we will interpret it as if they had written:
MyStruct s = {};
That is, the "cast from zero" idiom will be taken as a legacy syntax for default construction (using an empty initializer list). This will be semantically equivalent to zero-initialization for all existing HLSL code (where `struct` fields can't have default initialization expressions defined), and is the easiest option for us to support in Slang (since we already support default-initialization using empty initializer lists).
The implementation of this feature is narrowly scoped:
* It only targets explicit cast expressions like `(MyStruct) 0` and not "constructor" syntax like `MyStruct(0)`
* It only applies when there is a single argument that is exactly an integer literal with a zero value (not a reference to a `static const int` that happens to be zero).
This change adds a test case to make sure that the feature works as expected. Because it relies on our existing initializer-list handling, the "cast from zero" idiom should work for any user-defined type where an initializer list would work.

This appears to be a regression introduced in #1001, and missed because none of our existing tests covered `static const` arrays on the GLSL/SPIR-V targets.
The basic problem is that we cannot output a `static const` definition in GLSL because `static` is a reserved word and not a keyword. Instead for GLSL we just want a `const` array. This change makes the emission of `static` for global-scope constants key on the target language for code generation, and only emit it for HLSL, C, and C++.
This change also adds a test case specifically for running Slang input that has a `static const` array on the Vulkan target.

Currently if the user gives two global shader parameters conflicting bindings, they get a warning diagnostic:
```hlsl
Texture2D a : register(t0);
Texture2D b : register(t0); // WARNING: overlapping bindings
```
This change adds a way to locally disable that warning using an attribute:
```hlsl
[allow("overlapping-bindings")] Texture2D a : register(t0);
[allow("overlapping-bindings")] Texture2D b : register(t0); // OK
```
Note that as a policy decision, the implementation requires `[allow("overlapping-bindings")]` on both declarations in order to disable the warning, under the assumption that the behavior should be strictly opt-in, and not silently affect a programmer who adds a new shader parameter with no knowledge or expectation of possible overlap.
The `[allow(...)]` attribute is intended to be a fairly generally mechanism for disabling optional diagnostics within certain scopes (e.g., for the body of a function definition), but as implemented in this change it is quite restrictive:
* Only the single name `"overlapping-bindings"` will be recognized, and this name cannot be used with, e.g., a `-W` flag on the command line to enable/disable the same diagnostic, or turn it into an error. Adding more cases would be easy enough, but wiring it up to command-line flags could be trickier.
* Only the code that checks for parameter binding overlap is currently checking for `[allow(...)]` attributes, so it is not "wired up" to enable/disable any others. Doing this systematically would ideally involve something in `diagnose()`, but there could be complications to a systematic approach (finding the AST node(s) to use when searching for `[allow(...)]`.
On gotcha here is that versions of Slang without this feature will error out on the `[allow(...)]` attribute since they don't understand it, and if we add future diagnostics that it covers then old compiler versions will (as written) error out on a diagnostic they haven't heard of rather than just assume the `[allow(...)]` attribute doesn't apply to them. These kinds of issues can and should be addressed in future changes.

This change adds back a little bit of explicit support for global constants in the IR, after a previous change completely removed the existing `IRGlobalConstant` node type.
The new `IRGlobalConstant` is *not* a parent instruction, and doesn't function at all like the old one.
Instead it is effectively a simple instruction that takes zero or one operands:
* The zero-operand case represents a constant with unknown value. This would usually come from another module, and thus would have an `[import(...)]` linkage decoration, so that after linking it resolves to a constant with a known value.
* In the one-operand case, the single operand represents the value of the constant, so that the operation semantically behaves like an identity function. It exists just to give decorations something to "attach" to, so that a global constant with a value can have, e.g., an `[export(...)]` decoration to establish linkage.
The IR lowering pass was updated to create the new node type to wrap any global constants. For now we do this both for global `static const` variables and function-scope `static const`, although the latter doesn't really need the extra indirection.
The IR linking logic was extended to handle linking of global constants akin to how other global instructions are handled. The new logic is mostly boilerplate, and it is likely that a refactor of the linking logic would eliminate the need for this kind of per-instruction-opcode handling of IR instructions that can have linkage.
A custom pass was added that is intended to be run right after linking (it could arguably be folded into `linkIR()`, but I thought it was safer to keep each pass as small as possible). This pass replaces any `IRGlobalConstant` that has a value (operand) with that value, so that global constants should be eliminated after the linking step. This ensures that downstream optimization/transformation passes don't have to deal with the possibility of global constants.
Almost all the existing passes would Just Work if global constants were left in the IR. The two big exceptions are:
* Anything that relies on testing `IRInst*` identity as a way to test for things having the same value would break, since a global constant is a distinct `IRInst*` from its value.
* The type legalization pass doesn't handle `IRGlobalConstant` instructions with non-simple types. This could be added if we ever wanted it, but it seemed silly to write this code now if it would always be dead (and thus untested).
I went ahead and updated the emit logic to handle an `IRGlobalConstant`s that still existing in the IR module at emit time, since the amount of code required was small so that being robust to that case seemed safest (e.g., in case we ever want to have a path that emits code directly while skipping some/all of our IR transformation passes).
There should be no visible changes to the functionality of the compiler with this change, but it should help make IR dumps from the front-end more clear/explicit (since each constant will be a distinct instruction with its own name), and paves the way for supporting proper cross-module linkage of constants.

Before this change, global and function-scope `static const` declarations were represented as instructions of type `IRGlobalConstant`, which was represented similarly to an `IRGlobalVar`: with a "body" block of instructions that compute/return the initial value.
This representation inhibited optimizations (because a reference to a global constant would not in general be replaced with a reference to its value), and also caused problems for resource type legalization because the logic for type legalization did not (and still does not) handle initializers on globals (so global *variables* that contain resource types are still unsupported).
The change here is simple at the high level: we get rid of `IRGlobalConstant` and instead handle global-scope constants as "ordinary" instructions at the global scope. E.g., if we have a declaration like:
static const int a[] = { ... }
that will be represented in the IR as a `makeArray` instruction at the global scope, referencing other global-scope instructions that represent the values in the array.
This simple choice addresses both of the main limitations. A `static const` variable of integer/float/whatever type is now represented as just a reference to the given IR value and thus enables all the same optimizations. When a `static const` variable uses a type with resources, the existing legalization logic (which can handle most of the "ordinary" instructions already) applies.
Another secondary benefit of this approach is that the hacky `IREmitMode` enumeration is no longer needed to help us special-case source code emit for `static const` variables.
Beyond just removing `IRGlobalConstant`, and updating the lowering logic to use the initializer direclty, the main change here is to the emit logic to make it properly handle "ordinary" instructions that might appear at global scope.
One open issue with this change, that could be addressed in a follow-up change, is that "extern" global constants that need to be imported from another module (but which might not have a known value when the current module is compiled) aren't supported - we don't have a way to put a linkage decoration on them. A future change might re-introduce global constants as a distinct IR instruction type that just references the value as an operand (if it is available). We would then need to replace references to an IR constant with references to its value right after linking.
