packing/unpacking. (#8526)
Part of the effort to improve the performance of generated SPIRV code.
The existing lower-buffer-element-type pass works by loading the entire
buffer element content from memory, and translate it to logical type
stored in a local variable at the earliest reference of a buffer handle.
This means that is can generate inefficient code that reads more than
necessary.
Consider this example:
```
struct BigStruct { bool values[1024]; }
ConstantBuffer<BigStruct> cb;
void test(BigStruct v)
{
if (v.values[0]) { printf("ok"); }
}
[numthreads(1,1,1)]
void computeMain()
{
test(cb);
}
```
In IR, the `computeMain` function before lower-buffer-element-type pass
is something like following:
```
func test:
%v = param : BigStruct
%barr = fieldExtract(%v, "values")
%element = elementExtract(%barr, 0)
... // uses %element
func computeMain:
%v = load(cb)
call %test %v
```
The existing lower-buffer-element-type pass will rewrite the bool array
in `BigStruct` into `int` array so it is legal in SPIRV. However, it
does so by inserting the translation on the first `load` of the constant
buffer:
```
struct BigStruct_std430 {
int values[1024];
}
var cb : ConstantBuffer<BigStruct_std430>;
func computeMain:
%tmpVar : var<BigStruct>
call %unpackStorage(%tmpVar, cb)
%v : BigStruct = load %tmpVar
call %test %v
```
This means that the entire array will be loaded and translated to int,
before calling `test`, which only uses one element. It turns out that
the downstream compiler isn't always able to optimize out this
inefficient translation/copy.
This PR completely rewrites the way buffer-element-type lowering is
handled to avoid producing this inefficient code. It works in two parts:
first we turn on the `transformParamsToConstRef` pass for SPIRV target
as well, so we will translate the `test` function to take the `v`
parameter as `constref`. The second part is a redesigned
buffer-element-type pass that defers the storage-type to logical-type
translation until a value is actually used by a `load` instruction.
In this example, after `transformParamsToConstRef`, the IR is:
```
func test:
%v = param : ConstRef<BigStruct>
%barr = fieldAddr(%v, "values")
%elementPtr = elementAddr(%barr, 0)
%element = load(%elementPtr)
... // uses %element
func computeMain:
call %test %cb
```
The new `buffer-element-type-lowering` pass will take this IR, and
insert translation at latest possible time across the entire call graph,
and translate the IR into:
```
func test:
%v = param : ConstRef<BigStruct_std430>
%barr = fieldAddr(%v, "values")
%elementPtr : ptr<int> = elementAddr(%barr, 0)
%element_int = load(%elementPtr)
%element = cast(%element_int) : %bool
... // uses %element
func computeMain:
call %test %cb
```
In this new IR, there is no longer a load and conversion of the entire
array.
See new comment in `slang-ir-lower-buffer-element-type.cpp` for more
details of how the pass works.
This PR also address many other issues surfaced by turning on
`transformParamsToConstRef` pass on SPIRV backend.

* Add executable test on matrix-typed vertex input.
* Fix emit logic of matrix layout qualifier.
* Pass fragment shader varying input by constref to allow EvaluateAttributeAtCentroid etc. to be implemented correctly.

* capability upgrade warning/error
adjusted implementation + tests to support a warning/error if capabilities are implicitly upgraded and test accordingly.
* add glsl profile caps
* add GLSL and HLSL capabilities to the associated capability
* syntax error in capdef
* only error if user explicitly enables capabilities
1. changed testing infrastructure to not set a `profile` explicitly,
2. Added tests to be sure this works as intended with user API and with slangc command line
* Change capability atom definitions and how Slang manages them to fix errors
1. most `glsl_spirv` version atoms have been removed from `.capdef`, instead we will translate `spirv` version atoms into `glsl_spirv` since there is no point in writing the same code twice in `.capdef` files to define `spirv` versions.
2. add spirv version, and hlsl sm version (and equivlent) capability dependencies
3. removed some stage requirments which were set on objects, keep the wrapper capabilities. I am keeping the wrapper capabilities since I am unaware on if there are stage limitations (spec says code in practice does not work).
* check internal version instead of version profile (_spirv_1_5 vs. spirv_1_5)
* remove unused OpCapability. adjust SPIRV version'ing again for glsl_spirv
* apply workaround for glslang bug with rayquery usage
* ensure capabilities targetted by a profile and added together by a user are valid
* remove additions to `spirv_1_*` wrapper
* spirv_* -> glsl_spirv fix
* fix bug where incompatable profiles would cause invalid target caps
* try to avoid joining invalid capabilities
* fix the warning/error & printing
* run through tests to fix capability system and test mistakes
many mistakes were mesh shaders doing `-profile glsl_450+spirv_1_4`. This is not allowed for a few reasons
1. the test tooling does not handle arguments the same as `slangc`
2. glsl_450 core profile does not support mesh shaders, nor does spirv_1_4. sm_6_5 does work in this senario
* set some sm_4_1 intrinsics to sm_4_0
* replace `GLSL_` defs with `glsl_`
* swap the unsupported render-test syntax for working syntax
* set d3d11/d3d12 profile defaults
this is required since sm version changes compiled code & behavior
* adjusted nvapi capabilities with atomics + d3d11 set to use sm_5_0 as per default
* cleanup
* address review
* incorrect styling
* change `bitscanForward` to work as intended on 32 bit targets

This change allows varying fragment shader inputs to be declared in a way that allows the `GetAttributeAtVertex` operation to compile to valid code for both D3D and GLSL/SPIR-V/Vulkan.
The key is that rather than just use ordinary `nointerpolation`-qualified inputs the code must declare these varying inputs with a new `pervertex` qualifier that marks them as *only* being usable with `GetAttributeAtVertex`. The `pervertex`-tagged inputs then translate to GLSL inputs using the `pervertexNV` qualifier
Note that this change does *not* include any enforcement of the requirements around how these qualifiers are used (and the compiler doesn't have enforcement for the existing operations like `EvaluateAttributeAtCentroid`). The underlying problem is that the inerpolation-mode qualifiers and explicit interpolation functions in HLSL constitute a kind of rate-qualified type system, but without any systematic rules. It seems wasteful to encode a bunch of ad hoc rules for this stuff as special cases in the compiler when the clear right answer is to implement a systematic approach to rates.

This operation was added along with the `SV_Barycentrics` system-value input, and allows for a `nointerpolation` varying input to a fragment shader to be fetched at a specific vertex index within the primitive that is causing the fragment shader to be invoked.
This change adds support for the new operations in the standard library, and also includes a test case to make sure that we emit it correctly when producing HLSL/DXIL.
This change also includes a small bug fix to our emission logic for function parameters so that we properly emit layout-related attributes for varying parameters declared directly on an entry point.
(Note that most attribute end up being declared in `struct` types in existing HLSL shaders, and our IR passes produce only global variables for attributes on GLSL; the only case this affects is inidividual scalar/vector attributes declared declared as entry-point parameters, when outputting HLSL)
Note that this change only adds support for the new function on the HLSL/DXIL path, and doesn't yet add any cross-compilation support for GLSL/SPIR-V. The reason for this is that the equivalent GLSL feature(s) appear to use a different model to the HLSL version, and we need to invent a suitable approach to align them to make portable code possible.
