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.

* Overhaul the core routines for implicit conversion
The main user-visible change is that we have fixed the bug where conversions that should only be allowed explicitly were being allowed implicitly. This might be seen as a regression by users, so we'll have to be careful when rolling out the fix.
The core of that fix involves checking whether an `init` declaration that will be invoked as an implicit conversion actually supports implicit conversions.
The main visible change in the code is some renamings to try and help make the core type-coercion routines better fit our naming conventions.
The main cleanup is to enforce the invariant that any of the implicit-conversion core routines will always emit a diagnostic (or have a subroutine it calls do so) when conversion fails and the `outToExpr` parameter is non-null. This is a small change, but should improve the user experience if an implicit conversion fails in the context of a single element of an initializer list (the error should point at the line in question, and not at the whole list).
The big thing that is impacted by removing the ability to use explicit conversions implicitly is conversion of `enum` types to integers. This was intended to be explicit (a la `enum class` in C++), but the bug made it so that implicit conversion was allowed.
Closing up that gap meant that some of the checking around user-defined attributes got wonky, because we attempt to check that the attribute argument is an integer constant expression, but an `enum` case can't possible be an integer constant - it is a value of the `enum` type. I added code to work around that issue by having a parallel path for checking compile-time-constant expressions of `enum` type, but it is clear that a more general solution is needed eventually.

A global uniform parameter in HLSL might canonically be defined like this:
```hlsl
uniform float gSomeParameter;
```
The fxc and dxc compilers automatically collect all such parameters into a synthesized constant buffer, along the lines of:
```hlsl
cbuffer $Globals
{
float gSomeParameter;
}
```
Slang currently supports parsing and semantic checking of declarations like the above, and computes shader parameter layout/binding information that is appropriate for a constant buffer like `$Globals` above, but it does not include the support to emit HLSL or GLSL code that matches that layout, so that use of global uniforms in Slang is silently unsupported.
Making this problem worse, the HLSL language is quite lax, and will parse the following as shader parameters as well:
```hlsl
int gCounter = 0;
const float kScaleFactor = 2.0f;
```
Each of those declarations introduces a global shader parameter, and then provides a default value for it via the initializer. These declarations do *not* introduce an ordinary global variable or constant as might be expected.
(For anybody who wants to know, `static` is required to introduce a "real" global variable (although it will be a *thread-local* global in practice), while `static const` is required to introduce a global constant)
I was not too worried about users trying to use global-scope uniforms and failing (since that has fallen out of common HLSL/GLSL practice), but the possibility that users might try to declare global variables/constants and get shader parameters by mistake creates more of a risk so that this hole is worth plugging.
The right long-term fix is of course to support the intended semantics of global-scope uniforms, but that feature needs to be prioritized against other requests.
A few of the Slang tests were unwittingly relying on this functionality, including some compute tests that seemingly got away with it based on the DXBC generated from the HLSL output by Slang just happening to match the layout they expected. These tests have all been tweaked to use explicit `cbuffer`s or `ParameterBlock`s instead.

* Don't look at VK bindings when compiling for D3D and vice versa
The compiler had been looking at all the modifiers on a declaration when piecing together binding information, whether or not those modifiers should apply on the chosen target API. This was working in practice because the "layout resource kinds" used by each API target were disjoint, for the most part.
This change ensures that we don't even look at modifiers that don't apply on the chosen target, and furthermore adds a new warning that applies if the user is compiling a shader with explicit `register` bindings for Vulkan, if there are no corresponding `[[vk::binding(...)]]` attributes (under the assumption that if they want to be explicit in one case, they probably want to be explicit in all cases).
* Allow explicit space/set bindings on parameter blocks
The syntax for the D3D case is to specify a `space` in a `register` modifier, without any other register class:
```hlsl
ParameterBlock<X> myBlock : regsiter(space999);
```
In the Vulkan case, the user must apply the `[[vk::binding(...)]]` attribute and is expected to use a `binding` of zero:
```hlsl
[[vk::binding(0,999)]]
ParameterBlock<X> myBlock;
```
This change includes a reflection test for the new capability (where we also confirm that it produces the expected output when compared with fxc), and a test for the diagnostic messages when the user messes up bindings for Vulkan.
The implementation itself is fairly straightforward, since the compiler already treats registe spaces/sets as a resource that parameters can consume directly.
Note: the test case for explicit parameter block space/set bindings includes some commented out code that lead to a compiler crash. I would like to fix the underlying issue, but it seemed sensible to keep the bug fix out of a change like this that is adding functionality.

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

By default, when writing a "method" (aka "member function") in Slang, the `this` parameter is implicitly an `in` parameter. So this:
```hlsl
struct Foo
{
int state;
int getState() { return state; }
void setState(int s) { state = s; }
};
```
is desugared into something like this:
```hlsl
struct Foo { int state };
int Foo_getState(Foo this) { return this.state; }
// BAD:
void Foo_setState(Foo this, int s) { this.state = s; }
```
That "setter" doesn't really do what was intended. It modifies a local copy of type `Foo`, because `in` parameters in HLSL represent by-value copy-in semantics, and are mutable in the body the function. Slang was updated to give a static error on the original code to catch this kind of mistake (so that `this` parameters are unlike ordinary function parameters, and no longer mutable).
Of course, sometimes users *want* a mutable `this` parameter. Rather than make a mutable `this` the default (there are arguments both for and against this), this change adds a new attribute `[mutating]` that can be put on a method (member function) to indicate that its `this` parameter should be an `in out` parameter:
```hlsl
[mutating] void setState(int s) { state = s; }
```
The above will translate to, more or less:
```hlsl
void Foo_setState(inout Foo this, int s) { this.state = s; }
```
One added detail is that `[mutating]` can also be used on interface requirements, with the same semantics. A `[mutating]` requirement can be satisfied with a `[mutating]` or non-`[mutating]` method, while a non-`[mutating]` requirement can't be satisfied with a `[mutating]` method (the call sites would not expect mutation to happen).
The design of `[mutating]` here is heavily influenced by the equivalent `mutating` keyword in Swift.
Notes on the implementation:
* Adding the new attribute was straightforward using the existing support, but I had to change around where attributes get checked in the overall sequencing of static checks, because attributes were being checked *after* function bodies, but with this change I need to look at semantically-checked attributes to determine the mutability of `this`
* The check to restrict it so that `[mutating]` methods cannot satisfy non-`[mutating]` requirements was easy to add, but it points out the fact that there is a huge TODO comment where the actual checking of method *signatures* is supposed to happen. That is a bug waiting to bite users and needs to be fixed!
* While we had special-case logic to detect attempts to modify state accessed through an immutable `this` (e.g., `this.state = s`), that logic didn't trigger when the mutation happened through a function/operator call (e.g., `this.state += s`), so this change factors out the validation logic for that case and calls through to it from both the assignment and `out` argument cases.
* The error message for the special-case check was updated to note that the user could apply `[mutating]` to their function declaration to get rid of the error.
* The semantic checking logic for an explicit `this` expression was already walking up through the scopes (created during parsing) and looking for a scope that represents an outer type declaration that `this` might be referring to. We simply extend it to note when it passes through the scope for a function or similar declaration (`FunctionDeclBase`) and check for the `[mutating]` attribute. If the attribute is seen, it returns a mutable `this` expression, and otherwise leaves it immutable.
* The IR lowering logic then needed to be updated so that when adding an IR-level parameter to represent `this`, it gives it the appropriate "direction" based on the attributes of the function declaration being lowered. The rest of the IR logic works as-is, because it will treat `this` just like an other parameter (whether it is `in` or `inout`).
* This biggest chunk of work was the "implicit `this`" case, because ordinary name lookup may resolve an expression like `state` into `this.state`, so that the `this` expression comes out of "thin air." To handle this case, I extended the structure of the "breadcrumbs" that come along with a lookup result (the breadcrumbs are used for any case where a single identifier like `state` needs to be embellished to a more complex expression as a result of lookup), so that it can identify whether a `Breadcrumb::Kind::This` node comes from a `[mutating]` context or not. Similar to the logic for an explicit `this`, we handle this by noting when we pass through a `FunctionDeclBase` when moving up through scopes, and look for the `[mutating]` attribute on it. The rest of the work was just plumbing the additional state through.

This can mask an error when the user either typos a macro name when writing a conditional, or (as was the case for the user who pointed out this issue) they mistakenly assume that a `#define` in an `import`ed file has been made visible to them.
This change just adds the warning in the obvious place, with a test code to ensure it triggers.

Slang `enum` declarations will always be scoped, e.g.:
```hlsl
enum Color
{
Red,
Green = 2,
Blue,
}
Color c = Color.Red; // Not just `Red`
```
A user can write `enum class` as a placebo for now (to ease sharing of headers with C++).
Slang does not currently support the `::` operator for static member lookup, so it must be `Color.Green` and not `Color::Green`. Support for `::` as an alternate syntax could be added later if there is strong user demand.
An `enum` type can have a declared "tag type" using syntax like C++ `enum class`:
```hlsl
enum MyThings : uint
{
First = 0,
// ...
}
```
The `enum` cases will store their values using that type. An `enum` that doesn't declare a tag type will use the type `int` by default.
Enum cases are assigned values just like in C/C++: cases can have explicit values, but otherwise default to one more than the previous case, or zero for the first case.
All `enum` types will automatically conform to a standard-library `interface` called `__EnumType`, which is used so that basic operators like equality testing can be defined generically for all `enum` types.
This change only adds one operator at first (the `==` comparison), but other should be added later.
An `enum` case needs to be explicitly converted to an integer where needed (e.g., `int(Color.Red)`).
This is implemented by having the main integer types (`int` and `uint`) support built-in initializers that can work for *any* `enum` type (or rather, anything conforming to `__EnumType`).
Eventually these will be restricted so that an `enum` type can only be converted to its associated tag type.
IR code generation completely eliminates `enum` types and their cases.
The `enum` type will be replaced with its tag type, and the cases will be replaced with the tag values.
Currently this could leave some mess in the IR where cast operations are applied between values that actually have the same type.

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

Fixes #527
There were a few problem cases for the IR emit logic. The most obvious, which came up in #527 is that a function body with multiple `return` statements would generate invalid code:
```hlsl
int foo()
{
return 1;
int x = 2;
return x;
}
```
In that case the IR for `foo` would have a single block that has two `return` instructions, which is invalid.
Another case that seems to be arising more often, but that had less obvious consequences was when one arm of an `if` statement ends in a `return`:
```hlsl
if(a)
{
return b;
}
else
{
int c = 0;
}
int d = 0;
```
In that case, the `return` instruction for `return b` would be followed by a branch to the end of the `if` (the `int d = 0;` line), because that would be the normal control flow without the early `return`.
The fix implemented here is to have the IR lowering logic be a bit more careful on two fronts:
1. When emitting a branch, check if the block we are emitting into has already been terminated, and if so just don't emit the branch (since we are logically at an unreachable point in the CFG.
2. Whenever we are about to emit code for a (non-empty) statement, ensure that the current block being build is unterminated. If the current block is terminated, then start a new one.
Case (2) will only matter when there is unreachable code (e.g., in the function `foo()`, the declaration of `x` and the second `return` can never be reached), so I added a warning in that case, and included a test case that triggers the new warning (with a function like `foo()` above).

* Diagnose attempts to write to fields in methods
Work on #529
This helps to avoid the case where a Slang user writes a struct with helpful `setter` methods, and finds that it doesn't work as expected because the `this` parameter is currently handled like an `in` parameter (passed by value, but mutable in the callee).
Fixing this issue actually involved making a more broad fix to how l-value-ness is propagated. The existing checking logic was assuming that l-value-ness is just a property of a particular member declaration (e.g., a field is either mutable or not), and didn't take into account whether the "base expression" was mutable. This change fixes that oversight, which might lead to additional errors being issued if we aren't correctly making things mutable when we should.
A `ThisExpr` was already immutable by default, so that part didn't actually need to change. Just propagating its immutability through was enough.
As an additional assistance to users, I have added an extra diagnostic that triggers when a "destination of assignment is not an l-value" error occurs and the left-hand-side expression seems to be based on `this` (whether implicitly or explicitly). This will ideally help users to understand that the "setter" idiom is not yet supported.
* Fixed setRadius typo

Work on #499
Two big fixes here:
* The logic for checking constraints on `out` arguments wasn't actually triggering because it relied on function parameters being given an `OutType` if they are marked `out`, but the code wasn't actually doing that. Fixing the computation of types for functions resolved that issue.
* Next, I added a specific diagnostic to follow up the "expected an l-value" error to let the user know that their argument was implicitly converted, and that is why it doesn't count as an l-value in Slang's rules.
I've added a test case to ensure that we retain this diagnostic until we can do a true fix for the issue.
The right long-term fix is to have an AST representation of all the implicit casts involved (e.g., in both directions for an `inout` parameter), and then have the IR generate explicit code for the conversions in each direction (the `LoweredVal` representation can handle this sort of thing).

* Stop compilation when a important module contains errors.

* Fix bug when subscripting a type that must be split (#396)
The logic was creating a `PairPseudoExpr` as part of a subscript (`operator[]`) operation, but neglecting to fill in its `pairInfo` field, which led to a null-pointer crash further along.
* Allow writes to UAV textures (#416)
Work on #415
This issue is already fixed in the `v0.10.*` line, but I'm back-porting the fix to `v0.9.*`.
The issue here was that the stdlib declarations for texture types were only including the `get` accessor for subscript operations, even if the texture was write-able.
I've also included the fixes for other subscript accessors in the stdlib (notably that `OutputPatch<T>` is readable, but not writable, despite what the name seems to imply).
* Fix infinite loop in semantic parsing (#424)
The code for parsing semantics was looking for a fixed set of tokens to terminate a semantic list, rather than assuming that whenever you don't see a `:` ahead, you probably are done with semantics. This meant that you could get into an infinite loop just with simple mistakes like leaving out a `;`.
This change fixes the parser to note infinite loop in this case, and adds a test case to verify the fix.

* Initial work on validating "constexpr"-ness in IR
The underlying issue here is that certain operations in the target shading languages constrain their operands to be compile-time constants. A notable example is the optional texel offset parameter to the `Texture2D.Sample` operation.
When calling these operations in GLSL, the user is required to pass a "constant expression," and any variables in that expression must therefore be marked with the `const` qualifier (and themselves be initialized with constant expressions). Any GLSL output we generate must of course respect these rules.
When calling these operations in HLSL, the user is not so constrained. Instead, they can pass an arbitrary expression, which may involve ordinary variables with no particular markup, and then the compiler is responsible for determining if the actual value after simplification works out to be a constant. In some cases, the requirement that a value be constant might actually trigger things like loop unrolling. Also, it is okay to use a function parameter to determine such a constant expression, as long as the argument turns out to be a constant at all call sites.
The way we have decided to tackle these challenges in Slang is that we we propagate a notion of `constexpr`-ness through the IR. This is currently being tackled in `ir-constexpr.cpp` with a combination of forward and backward iterative dataflow:
* When the operands to an instruction are all `constexpr`, and the opcode is one we believe can be constant-folded, then we infer that the instruction *can* be evaluated as `constexpr`
* When instruction is required to be `constexpr`, then we infer that all of its operands are also required to be `constexpr`.
If this process ever infers that a function parameter is required to be `constexpr`, then we might have to continue propagation at all the call sites to that function.
If after all the propagation is done, there are any cases where an instruction is *required* to be `constexpr`, but it *can't* be `constexpr` (we weren't able to infer `constexpr`-ness for its operands), then we issue an error.
This implementation encodes the idea of `constexpr`-ness in the IR as part of the type system, using a simplified notion of rates. This change adds a `RateQualifiedType` that can represent `@R T`, and then introduces a `ConstExprRate` that can be used for `R`. Many accessors for the type information on IR nodes were updated to distinguish when one wants the "full" type of an IR value (which might include rate information) vs. just the "data" type.
A `constexpr` qualifier was added in the front-end, and is being used to decorate the texel offset parameter for `Texture2D.Sample`. Lowering from AST to IR looks for this qalifier and infers when a function parameter must be typed as `@ConstExpr T` instead of just `T`.
There are lots of limitations and gotchas in the implementation so far:
* The `@ConstExpr` rate is the only one added in this change, but it seems clear that the conceptual `ThreadGroup` rate that was added to represent `groupshared` should probably get folded into the representation.
* I'm not 100% pleased with how many places in the IR I have to special-case for rate-qualified types. At the same type, pulling out rate as a distinct field on `IRValue` would probably require that we pay attention to rate everywhere.
* I've added a test case to show that we can issue errors when users fail to provide a constant expression for the texel offset, but the actual error message isn't great because it doesn't indicate *why* a constant expression was required. Realistically the "initial IR" should contain a few more decorations we can use to relate error conditions back to the original code (even if this is in a side-band structure).
* I've added a test case that is supposed to show that we can back-propagate `constexpr`-ness to local variables, and I've manually confirmed that it works for Vulkan/SPIR-V output, but the level of Vulkan support in `render_test` today means I can't enable the test for check-in.
* While I'm attempting to propagate `@ConstExpr` information from callees to callers, I haven't implemented any logic to specialize callee functions based on values at call sites.
* In a similar vein, there is no handling of control-flow dependence in the current code. If we infer that a phi (block parameter) needs to be `@ConstExpr`, then it isn't actually enough to require that the inputs to the phi (arguments from predecessor blocks) are all `@ConstExpr` because we also need any control-flow decisions that pick which incoming edge we take to be `@ConstExpr` as well.
* As a practical matter, implicit propagation of `@ConstExpr` from a function body to a function parameter should only be allowed for functions that are "local" to a module. Any function that might be accessed from outside of a module should really have had its `@ConstExpr` parameter marked manually, and our pass should validate that they follow their own rules. Right now we have no kind of visibility (`public` vs `private`) system, so I'm kind of ignoring this issue.
While that is a lot of gaps, this is also just enough code to get the Falcor MultiPassPostProcess example working, so I'm inclined to get it checked in.
* Fixup: missing expected output for test
* Fixup: disable test that relies on [unroll] for now

* Fix handling of errors in imported modules
- If a semantic error is detected in an imported module, then don't try to generate IR code for it
- Also, if a module (transitively) imports itself, then report that as an error
- The way I'm checking for this is a bit hacky (I'm adding the module to the map of loaded modules, but in an "unfinished" state, and then using that unfinished state to detect the import of a module already being imported).
This isn't a 100% complete solution for any of the related problems, but it improves the user experience for the common case.
* Remove #import test.
The feature is slated to be removed, so it isn't worth fixing up this test case.

The basic problem here arises when a local variable is used either before its own declaration:
```hlsl
int a = b;
...
int b = 0;
```
or when a local variable is used *in* its own decalration:
```hlsl
int b = b;
```
In each case, Slang considers the scope of the `{}`-enclosed function body (or nested statement) as a whole, and so the lookup can "see" the declaration even if it is later in the same function.
This behavior isn't really correct for HLSL semantics, so the right long-term fix is to change our scoping rules, but for now users really just want the compiler to not crash on code like this, and give an error message that points at the issue.
This change makes both of the above examples print an error message saying that variable `b` was used before its declaration, which is accurate to the way that Slang is interpreting those code examples.
This is currently treated as a fatal error, so that compilation aborts right away, to avoid all of the downstream crashes that these cases were causing.

Closes #38
- Change overlapping bindings case from error to warning (it is *technically* allowed in HLSL/GLSL)
- Make diagnostic messages for these cases include a note to point at the "other" declaration in each case, so that user can more easily isolate the problem
- Unrelated fix: make sure `slangc` sets up its diagnostic callback *before* parsing command-line options so that error messages output during options parsing will be visible
- Unrelated fix: make sure that formatting for diagnostic messages doesn't print diagnostic ID for notes (all have IDs < 0).
- Note: eventually I'd like to not print diagnostic IDs at all (I think they are cluttering up our output), but doing that requires touching all the test cases...

- The big change here is that all the definitions for syntax-node classes have been macro-ized, to that we can do light metaprogramming over them
- The use of macros for this has big down-sides, but I'm not quite ready to do anything more heavy-weight right now
- The macro-ized definitions can be included multiple times, to generate different declarations/code as needed
- The first example of using this meta-programming facility is a new visitor system
- The actual visitor base classes and the dispatch logic are all generated from the meta-files
- There was only one visitor left in the code: the semantics checker, so that was ported to the new system.
- All current test cases pass, so *of course* that means all is well.

This includes a bunch of related changes:
- `slang-test`
- Add a notion of an "output mode" that specifies whether we output to console (the default), or invoke the apprpriate AppVeyor command to update test status
- Add a notion of test categories, so that tests can be tagged with categories, and then we can invoke only those tets in a given category, or choose to *exclude* tests with specific categories
- Allow the `OSProcessSpawner` to look up an executable by "path" (meaning a full path is expected) or by "name" (meaning it should be allowed to look in the current directory, `PATH` environment variable, etc.). This was important to make sure that I can run `appveyor` without having to know its absolute path.
- AppVeyor configuration
- Change badge to reflect new build account for organization (rather than a single-user account)
- Remove attempt to set AppVeyor build version in a clever way, since it breaks links from GitHub to AppVeyor
- Change order or configurations in the build matrix to front-load the Release build (which has the main tests)
- Turn on `fast_finish` flag so we don't have to wait as long for failed builds
- Turn on `parallel` builds
- Set `verbosity: minimal` to avoid getting build spew about Xamarin stuff I'm not using
- Add custom `test_script` to invoke `test.bat`
- Sets the test category based on teh build configuration, so we don't run the full test suite on every input.
- `test.bat`
- Allow for `-platform` and `-configuration` arguments
- Rewrute a platform of `Win32` over to `x86` to match how the output directories are named
- Futz around with how the directories are being passed along to work around annoying `.bat` file quoting behavior (I still don't get how batch files work)
- Tests
- Mark a bunch of tests as `smoke` tests
- Mark the relevant tests as `render` tests
(these get filtered out for AppVeyor builds)

Many of the existing test cases were being skipped on accident, because their file names used `.spire` and the test tool was now looking for `.slang`
