When impl lookup results in an `ImplWitness`, either directly or later
through `LookupImplWitness` evaluating to an `ImplWitness` inside some
specific, it represents a dependency on the eval blocks of the
`ImplDecl` that the `ImplWitness` comes from. The `ImplWitness` contains
a `SpecificId` of the `ImplDecl`, and the constants in the witness table
must be viewed through that `SpecificId`. The constants may depend on
the declaration or the definition block of the `ImplDecl`'s specific, so
any use of the witness table from `ImplWitness` requires the specific
from the `ImplWitness` to be fully resolved: both the decl and
definition blocks.
The specific declaration block is always resolved immediately when
forming a specific id, so there's nothing to do there. And things are
simple when the `ImplWitness` returned from impl lookup is concrete. We
would simply resolve the specific definition directly in the evaluation
of `LookupImplWitness`.
But when the `ImplWitness` is symbolic, meaning there's a dependency on
generic parameters in its referenced specific, then we have a dependency
on resolving the specific definition in the `ImplWitness` for every
specific that gets applied to the `ImplWitness`, eventually resulting in
a concrete specific.
Previously we attempted to do this by representing a dependency edge
from the eval block containing the `ImplWitness` instruction to the
definition block of the specific inside the `ImplWitness`. We
represented this dependency edge with the `RequireSpecificDefinition`
instruction.
The challenge with the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction was
ensuring it always landed in the _same eval block_ as the one holding
the symbolic `ImplWitness`. Ultimately, we've found a way to do this
without the `RequireSpecificDefinition`. The witness table is accessed
through `ImplWitnessAccess`, so we resolve the specific definition
before each access to the witness table. If the definition is already
resolved, this just costs a lookup of the Specific from the value store.
We document the other things we tried, which don't work or were too
complex, below.
In PR #6236, we added the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction in the
eval of `LookupImplWitness`, but this is too late. If impl lookup
resolved to a symbolic `LookupImplWitness`, the `LookupImplWitness` is
added some eval block. Later, we form specifics and re-evaluate that
eval block, and the `LookupImplWitness` can evaluate to an
`ImplWitness`. Adding the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction at
this point inserts the instruction into whatever generic's eval block
happens to be on the top of the generic stack, not the eval block of the
generic we are building a specific for. And indeed we can't add
instructions to a generic's eval block later like this, as it would be
missing from specifics that were already resolved for the generic. This
incorrect insertion shows up as a crash in eval at the CHECK introduced
but commented out in [eval.cpp in
#7981](https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/blob/56d9bbc40add1e9263f2f9b2555c3a27292d1725/toolchain/check/eval.cpp#L3507-L3512).
This is covered by the
`require_specific_impl_definition_through_specific_instantiation.carbon`
test.
We tried moving the insertion of `RequireSpecificDefinition` to be
earlier - at the point where the `LookupImplWitness` is constructed, in
the `LookupImplWitness()` function, instead of inside evaluation. This
seemed like a straightforwardly correct answer, as the eval block that
contains the `LookupImplWitness` will then also contain the
`RequireSpecificDefinition`. However, this can cause us to lose the
`RequireSpecificDefinition` entirely. Because it's a separate
instruction, not an operand of `LookupImplWitness`, it does not get
treated as a dependency of the witness. When we do an impl lookup inside
an `alias`, we build a generic for the alias and then discard it. This
discards the eval block containing the `LookupImplWitness`. Then, in an
enclosing generic, we refer to the constructed `AliasDecl` instruction,
which pulls all its dependent operands into the enclosing eval block.
This pulls in the `LookupImplWitness` into the enclosing eval block, but
it does not preserve the `RequireSpecificDefinition`. This is covered by
the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_lookup_impl_witness_in_class_definition.carbon`
test.
We tried having `ImplWitness` evaluation resolve the specific definition
of the specific `ImplDecl` it refers to. This seems like the simplest
approach by far as we should always be working with the correct eval
block and nothing can get lost. However it does not work because of the
recursive nature of `ImplWitness`. The `ImplWitness` instruction appears
in the declaration of an `ImplDecl`, and the `ImplWitness` holds a
`SpecificId` for that same `ImplDecl`. When building a specific
`ImplDecl`, we evaluate the `ImplWitness` in the `ImplDecl`'s
declaration block which then immediately resolves the specific
definition before the declaration is finished. This leads to missing
instructions in the specific definition. In short, this puts the
dependency edge to the `ImplDecl`'s specific inside the `ImplDecl`
itself, which is problematic.
We tried wrapping `ImplWitness` in another instruction,
`ImplWitnessUse`. Inside the `ImplDecl` declaration there is still
`ImplWitness`, but then in the definition there is `ImplWitnessUse` and
that is what is returned from the evaluation of `LookupImplWitness`. The
`ImplWitnessUse` is an `ImplWitness` plus it ensures the specific
referred to by the witness has its definition resolved. However this
breaks constant comparisons, as we get different witnesses inside an
impl versus outside.
The first iteration of this PR's solution had us insert the
`RequireSpecificDefinition` into the eval block when we sniffed a
`LookupImplWitness` instruction, however that missed cases where impl
lookup immediately resolved to a symbolic `ImplWitness`, which is why we
now sniff for the `ImplWitness` in the eval block. This is covered by
the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_symbolic_impl_in_class_definition.carbon`
test.
We also originally made a mistake of not inserting
`RequireSpecificDefinition` when inside the impl definition that the
`ImplWitness` refers to. But we can form specifics ImplWitness values
through function signatures, and these must add the dependency edge on
that specific ImplDecl definition. This is covered by the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_inside_impl_definition.carbon`
test.
Finally, we did have a working solution. It was to sniff instructions
added to the eval block of a generic, and when an `ImplWitness` is added
to the eval block (it is implied that it is symbolic), also add a
`RequireSpecificDefinition` to that eval block immediately. We also
resolved the definition of a specific referred to by `ImplWitness` when
`LookupImplWitness` evaluates to `ImplWitness` to cover the concrete
witness case. This complicated the construction of the eval block
immensely, however. It caused a situation where adding one inst to the
eval block actually adds two, which we needed to avoid when importing.
And it required inst-kind specific behaviour in the very general
construction of an eval block, completely outside of eval itself.
Lexer diagnostics used a single `const char*` as their source location,
which only allowed pointing at a single character rather than a run of
characters. This limited the underlining of unrecognized tokens, and
also made escape sequence diagnostics particularly strange by stopping
at whatever point the lexer discovered the error and pointing only at
that location. For example: `"\w"` was reported at the `w`, and `"\x"`
at the closing `"`.
This change tries to always keep the primary location of a diagnostic
the point at which typing (inserting or deleting) might fix the error.
So for `"\x"`, `\x` is underlined, but the position is at the `"` as
that's where you would type a hex code.
The lexer's emitter now takes a special lexing source location that
represents either a single position _between_ two characters, a single
character, or a range of the source buffer. The lexer diagnostics are
updated to construct these for the character range as appropriate.
Parser diagnostics for a missing token were located at the _next_ token,
which is particularly confusing for terminators like missing `;`s. Now
they are located at a position after the previous token, with or without
a space depending on the token, but typically on the same line.
Diagnostics still sort by how far the parser has read.
The parser diagnostics for unclosed groups also now attaches a label to
the opening token when it is on a separate line. And the diagnostics for
mismatched indent in a multi-line string attaches a label to the closing
`'''` that establishes that indent.
There are likely more location improvements we should do here, but this
seemed like a reasonable incremental improvement and is what Claude
found when doing an initial audit. One example where I think we should
make further improvements is around suggesting raw identifiers when we
find an unexpected `Cpp` or `Core` or `base`. We do this consistently
now, but raw identifiers should be rare. A TODO is added for these
cases.

There were a number of iterations on the design that weren't reflected
in the initial port to the terminal rendering library. This PR tries to
complete the rendering side of things to match the design we landed on:
code-focused, with messages attached by lines to the code, and condensed
as much as possible to avoid the vertical space.
It also improves the styling to make things more visually
distinguishable such as adding a `->` to the main error line, and making
the underlines and connectors for it have a heavy weight (when the font
supports that).
Another major change is having multiple messages on a single line be
drawn in source lexical order. This requires the connectors to cross
without joining, but makes it easier to read the messages.
This PR also has some refactorings to enable these improvements, and a
_number_ of improvements to comment prose and terminology to try and
avoid jargon and make things read more naturally. Sorry for the fact
that Claude left a bunch of this mannerly language in comments despite
my efforts, but I'm continuing to try and drive the prose towards
something direct and simple to read. Some of the terminology
improvements also needed to be made in the design doc and those have
been made here.
Note that I don't think this rendering is perfect or should be viewed as
final. I'm happy to iterate on it further, and have a few adjustments in
mind already, but would like to focus this on getting the
_implementation_ of the current rendering design in place, and then we
can make targeted changes or tweaks as needed. For example, I'm not yet
fully happy with the rendering when messages are too long and we move
them all the way to the left, but am leaving that for a follow-up.

Determining that a type has trivial destruction requires checking
whether all of its subobjects have trivial destruction and whether its
type has a custom witness for `Destroy.Op`. This isn't possible when
`Destroy` is the custodian for `Destroy.Op` and `SubobjectDestroy.Op`,
so we need to make `SubobjectDestroy` its own interface.
`Destroy.SelfDestruct` becomes a standalone function because it depends
on `SubobjectDestroy` and `Destroy` being implemented, and is also
responsible for generating any custom witnesses for both interfaces.
Making `SelfDestruct` an interface was experimented with, but this
required a blanket impl that caused issues for facet types.
`Destroy` depends on `SubobjectDestroy` to be implemented. We'd ideally
use `require impls SubobjectDestroy`, but it isn't complete yet, and it
also causes problems when `Destroy` is implemented inside the class
definition. We work around this by temporarily renaming the `Destroy`
interface to `DestroyImpl`, and introducing a constraint called
`Destroy` so that user code doesn't need to write `Core.SubobjectDestroy
& Core.Destroy`.
If a generic class inherits from a private parent (as allowed in C++),
and attempts to access a member of that private parent, an error should
be diagnosed via `DiagnoseInvalidQualifiedNameAccess`.
A couple changes are needed to make that work, because the access
constant in this case is not a `ClassType`. Instead, it's a
`StructValue` of type `ParameterizedClassType`. So, use
`TryGetTypeIdForTypeConstantId` instead of `GetTypeIdForTypeConstantId`
(to get `None` instead of asserting on a non-type constant), and allow
getting the class ID from both `ClassType` and `ParameterizedClassType`.

We allow using `InstId` as a `LocId` for diagnostics, which works great
in `handle_*` functions, where we are working with non-canonical insts.
And convert and pattern matching often are given non-canonical insts,
which they can use, or pull apart to find some other inst, and use those
as a location for diagnostics. However these operations can also be
called with canonical insts, which have no location. In that case if we
need to diagnose an error, it ends up not being attached to any code at
all. Since we always have a `LocId` somewhere up the call stack, pass it
along and in these places that handle canonical instructions too, use
`GetInstLocationOrFallback()` to get a valid location for diagnostics.
This is also similar to what eval does with its fallback `LocId`.
The result is that many diagnostics now have a location where they had
none before. It also means some insts don't get `<elided>` in formatted
semir for not having a location at all and thus not being in range.
Diagnostic rendering was part of the data model: `Loc::FormatLocation`
and
`Loc::FormatSnippet` wrote plain text to a stream, so no capability,
color, or
terminal width could reach them.
A diagnostic is now one message with labels, contexts, and location
information
attached, and `Diagnostics::Renderer` draws it into a
`Terminal::Buffer`. The
design is in `toolchain/docs/diagnostics_rendering.md` (#7668),
authoring in
`toolchain/docs/diagnostics.md`.
Before:
```
example.carbon:6:3: error: 1 argument passed to function expecting 0 arguments
Run0(1);
^~~~~~~
example.carbon:3:1: note: calling function declared here
fn Run0() {}
^~~~~~~~~~~
```
After:
```
error: 1 argument passed to function expecting 0 arguments
╭─┤ example.carbon:6:3
┆
3 │ fn Run0() {}
· ─────┬─────
· ╰──┤ calling function declared here
┆
-> 6 │ Run0(1);
· ───────
╰────────────
```
`--no-diagnostic-snippets` gives a compact form, `example.carbon:6:3-9`.
File
tests use it; the rendering tests under `toolchain/diagnostics/testdata`
ask for
snippets.
C++ interop diagnostics are data now rather than text Clang drew:
`SemIR::ClangSourceLocId` names a `clang::SourceRange`, and a Clang
location is
marked as the point it names.
`StreamConsumer` moves to a `:renderer` target that `:emitter` does not
depend
on, keeping `common/terminal` out of `consumer.h`. Capabilities come
from the
file behind the error stream, so tests get plain ASCII.
`renderer_fuzzer` draws diagnostics built from fuzzer bytes with every
capability combination, since a shape the renderer doesn't expect must
never be
why the compiler dies while reporting a problem.
TODOs mark the follow-ups: line weights and crossing lines, wrapping
that keeps
a quoted type whole, and ordering diagnostics that share a byte offset.
Also: `IncorrectExtension`'s hint moves into its message, since its note
had no
location of its own, and `strip_noise` in `check_diagnostics.py` blanks
multi-line `#define`s instead of deleting them.

When unqualified lookup finds a name from an enclosing generic, create a
`specific_constant` if it's a constant, or a `specific_inst` otherwise,
to refer to that name from the inner generic. This allows consumers of
generic instructions to always use a specific of the current scope's
generic when accessing the constant value or type of a dependent
instruction.
Fixes crashes in dominance and in `GetExprCategory` caused by using
specifics for the wrong generic.

When identifying a facet type, defer evaluation of LookupImplWitnesses
by redirecting them to evaluate into IdentifiedWitness. Then the caller
of identify will need to substitute the IdentifiedWitnesses, either with
witnesses of their own, or with LookupImplWitness to cause a lookup
operation.
This allows:
- An `impl as` on a named constraint can subst the witnesses in
designators from the named constraint with a witness to the impl itself.
This prevents them from looking for and finding some other overlapping
impl. (This PR)
- Impl lookup to collect rewrite/equality requirements from all named
constraints and then use the impls it has already found to evaluate any
designators in those requirements instead of performing impl lookup
again (creating a cycle). (Done in
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7944)
- Similarly, an `impl as` can collect impls and equality requirements
from all named constraints and verify them correctly by replacing
witnesses that should refer to the impl with the correct witness instead
of performing a lookup and finding an overlapping impl. (Done in
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7937)
- ImplWitnessAccess to be able to find rewrites from a named constraint,
not just from the initial DeclaredFacetType. (TBD)
To do this we need to introduce the concept of "identified" specifics.
In order to identify a facet type, we must construct a specific for each
require decl in a named constraint. These specifics will have
IdentifiedWitnesses inside them, but their args would otherwise match a
specific for the require decl constructed in another context. To avoid
polluting the canonical specific namespace, we introduce a second
namespace of specifics that are "identified" since they are created by
identifying.
As we have introduced a new global state that modifies eval behaviour,
we must disable that state when resolving a specific (as per
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7923). But inside an
"identified" specific, we preserve the behaviour so that the witnesses
modified by identify (through SubstPeriodSelf or through evaluating a
require specific) have their evaluation deferred.
`TypeIterator` didn't handle `BoundMethodType`, so any impl lookup whose
self type is a bound method crashed, for example `c.Get != 0` or `var x:
i32 = c.Get;` after forgetting the call parentheses. Treat it as a
concrete type, and as trivially destructible when checking `Destroy`,
since bound methods are empty at runtime. These cases now produce the
usual missing-impl diagnostics.

We previously discarded a `generic` applied to `self`, resulting in
silently treating `generic self: Self` as a runtime parameter and
producing a weird error on `template self: Self`.
Instead of forcibly making all `self` parameters non-runtime, change the
*default* for a parameter named `self` to be runtime.
This is only a partial fix; more work is required to support `fn
F(generic self)` with an omitted type.
Base classes will be destroyed in a dedicated change, so we can
trivially confirm that the base is being destroyed.
This is a partial implementation of #7362.

A specific's definition block may contain `InstId::None`, indicating it
has no constant value. Display this as `<not constant>` instead of
`invalid`, to avoid it sounding like an error.
Removes support for unspecified default values. Fixes canonicalization
of the `DefaultValuePattern` instruction by making them immutable after
they are issued, and by removing the `DefaultValueId` operand which
wasn't being canonicalized.
Add support for deferring initialization as a template action, and
performing the deferred initialization during template instantiation.
This is substantially more complex than other conversion actions, for
two primary reasons:
* The initializer in the generic may have storage arguments as inputs.
We model an initializing expression as having a "slot" where
initialization writes the location that should be initialized by that
initializing expression, and that needs to be an output of the
initialization action.
* Initialization from a tuple or struct literal needs to recurse into
that literal, and the literal will have been spelled in the generic,
meaning we don't have an `InstId` that can be used to name the specific
version of the initializer as input for nested conversions.
These issues are addressed by introducing two new features to the action
machinery:
In addition to `InstAction`, we now have `MultiInstAction`, which is an
action that produces a tuple of instruction values instead of a single
instruction value. Initialization actions produce one instruction for
the final result, which is spliced at the point of initialization, plus
one instruction for each storage argument, which are spliced into the
storage argument slots in the original generic. During initialization,
if we find one of those splices in the storage argument of an
initializing expression, we return the new storage argument back to the
initialization action to be included in the specific, instead of
overwriting the storage argument in the generic.
Actions whose `PerforrmAction` takes a `SpecificId` as input no longer
perform automatic refinement of their operands to specific instructions.
Instead, the action is given control over when and where it performs
that refinement. In `InitializeAction`, we use this freedom to form a
`SpecificInst` for the initializer in the primary output block, and form
a `SpecificInst` for the target in the target block. When detecting
whether we are initializing from a tuple or struct literal, we step over
the `SpecificInst` and track its `SpecificId`, and if necessary create a
new `SpecificInst` wrapping the sub-initializer when we recurse into the
nested element conversion.

This change partially implements [PR #7362], which revises how objects
are destroyed. It is a partial implementation for two reasons:
1. This change moves `Destroy.Op`'s current behaviour into
`Destroy.SubobjectDestroy`, but it doesn't add support for objects with
non-trivial destruction.
2. `Destroy.SubobjectDestroy` is a workaround for `require impls
SubobjectDestroy`. We aren't able to use the latter until the dependents
add their requirements' implementations to their own witness tables.
[PR #7362]: https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pulls/7362
The type `type` is now a `FacetType` inst with no constraints. This
brings the model implemented in the toolchain into better alignment with
the language design. The `SemIR::TypeType` struct remains as a scope for
holding the `TypeInstId`, `ConstantId`, and `TypeId` constants, but is
not an `InstKind` anymore.
The `TypeType` inst looks a lot like singletons, but there are many
`FacetType` insts so it doesn't quite fit that model. So we put it
alongside singletons with a fixed inst id but refer to it as a more
general "builtin" inst that is not a singleton.
`Namespace::PackageInstId` is similar, and we group it with `TypeType`
conceptually as another builtin instruction with a fixed id.
No conversion is needed anymore to use a `type` as a facet, since types
also have a `FacetType` type. This simplifies and removes a number of
helpers and branches throughout the code.
The `TypeType` inst is now part of the constant store, so we end up
printing it in the constants block in every test. But it's also named
`type` rather than `%type` to preserve the majority of existing
formatting behaviour, though this does look different from other
constants.
Assisted-by: Opus 5 was used to generate a first draft and validate the
refactoring. Though nearly everything non-trivial the tool wrote has
been modified or rewritten.
In the `EntityName` for a binding, preserve the `TypeInstId` describing
how the type was written. When a diagnostic refers to that type via
`TypeOfInstId`, use the type-as-written in the diagnostic rather than
the canonical type.

When evaluating a deferred member access action, the scope stack cannot
be relied on, so `LookupUnqualifiedName` cannot be used in
`GetHighestAllowedAccess` to get the `Self` type.
Instead, store the `Self` type in the `Context` when evaluating a
method, and use that in `GetHighestAllowedAccess`.
This action was created to wrap any `MetaInstId` operand of an action
instruction. This served two purposes:
1) It had a special hook in `OperandIsDependent` to allow it to be
performed while it had a dependent operand (the reference to the
instruction in the generic).
2) It created a `specific_inst` so that the downstream action saw an
instruction in the specific instead of one in the generic.
These are both replaced: the special case in `OperandIsDependent` for
`RefineInstAction` is replaced by a special case for `MetaInstId`s in
general, and the `SpecificInst` is now created as part of performing the
downstream action, rather than as a separate step carried out
beforehand.
This simplifies the produced SemIR and reduces the number of splices
significantly. It also prepares us to handle actions like
initialization, where we don't actually want to create `SpecificInst`s
immediately in the location where the action is performed, because they
actually belong somewhere else in the IR.

We use the same conversion codepath to handle both qualification
conversions and derived-to-base conversions, because we allow both to be
performed at once. However, we were previously modeling the
qualification conversion as happening *first*, and producing a result
whose type is the target type of the overall conversion (that is, the
base class type). That led to bogus SemIR, where a `Derived` -> `const
Base` conversion would first have a "compatible" conversion from
`Derived` to `const Base`, *then* an access of the base subobject (of
type `const Base`, within an object of type `const Base`).
We now reverse the order: first we do a derived-to-base conversion,
which already has logic to preserve qualifiers, and then we do any
necessary qualification conversions on the result to reach the overall
target type.
In passing, we now skip forming the `as_compatible` instruction at all
for a pure derived-to-base conversion that has no qualification
conversion, simplifying the SemIR by one instruction in the common case.
Use a single `SemIR::Function` per `Core` interface method, whether it's
generated locally or imported. This prevents generating duplicate
functions, which lead to different types when the witness appears in a
`FacetValue` as part of a specific for a class.
We use a `CanonicalValueStore` of `GeneratedFunction` objects that allow
finding an existing FunctionId for a `Generated` special function before
(re-)generating it. Mangling for `Generated` functions is also moved to
use the values from the `GeneratedFunction`'s canonicalization key, so
that we have a consistent source of truth for the unique ID of a
`Generated` function across all files.
New tests are in
`toolchain/check/testdata/impl/custom_witness/destroy.carbon`.
### Description
When looking up default initializers for class elements in
`ConvertStructToClass`, the compiler previously assumed that every
member looked up from the class scope was a `FieldDecl` and called
`GetAs<SemIR::FieldDecl>` directly.
For a derived class with a base class, looking up `base` returns a
`BaseDecl`, which caused a `CHECK` assertion failure when casting to
`FieldDecl`. Use `TryGetAs<SemIR::FieldDecl>` instead so non-`FieldDecl`
entries like `BaseDecl` are recognized as having no default initializer,
cleanly diagnosing that the `base` field is missing.

Updates the pattern matching code to support unspecified default values.
Adds logic to decl and def merge code to diagnose mismatches in defaults
if specified in both places, or if let entirely unspecified.
Per https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7521.
Add basic support for lowering templates: we can now lower `SpliceInst`
in the case where the generic and specific are from the same file (and
we don't support importing templates from other files yet in general).
In order for this to work, lowering needs to be able to query the
expression category, and to handle instructions that appear to be
(template) constants in the generic but turn out to be non-constant in
the specific, so support for that is added.
Switch `type_of_inst` from being added as an action inst to being added
as a normal inst, since it's not an action and the old approach led to a
crash in lowering.
Replace `refine_type_action` with `refine_inst_action`, and generate a
`specific_inst` instead of an `as_compatible` to represent the specific
version of an instruction that's used as an input to a template action.
This gives us a place to handle other properties of the instruction that
might vary from generic to specific beyond its type, such as its
constant value and its expression category.
For now, we provide a non-template-dependent constant value to the
`specific_inst` in addition to the non-template-dependent type we have
traditionally provided. This doesn't seem to matter for any current
actions, but sets us up to better handle future actions. The
`specific_inst` representation also allows downstream consumers of the
instruction to track which specific they should be requesting
information from. Providing a correct expression category for
`specific_inst` will be handled in a future PR.
`GetCallee` is sometimes called on a spliced instruction, and is
checking its exact inst operand to see if it's a `BoundMethod`. This
fails if the `BoundMethod` is wrapped in another instruction, such as a
splice. Normally our approach for such a situation would be to
constant-evaluate the operand, but that doesn't work here because the
`BoundMethod` will be non-constant if its bound `self` is. So instead we
now step through splice instructions manually when looking for the
`BoundMethod`.
Calls with template callee or args can now be deferred via an
InstAction. This allows code like this to check:
```carbon
import Cpp inline '''
template<typename T>
struct C {};
''';
fn F(generic T: type) {
let unused c: Cpp.C(T) = Cpp.C(T).C();
}
```
Treat `InstConstantKind::InstAction` the same as
`InstConstantKind::ConstInstAction`. Drop `ConstInstAction`, since the
two now behave the same.
Fix eval for specifics in a couple places to handle `InstId::None`.
This allows various templated constructs to get further through
checking, but typically we hit another unsupported action such as a
conversion or call, so it's not enough to make much work.
We already test this in `access_modifiers.carbon`.
This also fixes a typo in the name of `access_modifiers.carbon` and
removes the `--dump-sem-ir-ranges` flag.
Implementing interface modifiers causes an infinite loop when generating
fingerprints because the witness value generates a fingerprint that's
dependent on something dependent on the witness value. We've debugged
this to the witness table's `elements_id` field.
This hack is a workaround for creating a new block type whose value is
not codependent with its identity.

During impl lookup, for each (generic) impl candidate, we form a
specific for that impl by deducing its generic arguments. Then we
compare the query interface against the impl's specific interface. That
comparison needs the deduced arguments applied to the impl's specific
interface. Previously we were doing this by getting the impl's
constraint facet type with the impl's specific applied (via
`GetConstantValueInSpecific()`) and then identifying that facet type
with the impl's deduced self.
Identify is a fairly expensive operation. It runs subst, trying to
replace `.Self` references. It walks named constraints. It collects
require declarations. We're looking at making it do _more_ in the future
too, including rewrite constraint resolution and collecting rewrite and
same-type constraints. For this reason we have a cache to make it cheap
on the second run, but it's still a very heavyweight operation to
involve in impl lookup, when all we want is to apply the impl's specific
to its target interface.
We almost have all the information we need to avoid the identification
step. We have the impl's specific after deduction. And we have the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting in the `Impl` struct. When
we form the specific for the impl itself, we resolve the declaration
block and form new constant values for all instructions in there, but
that does not cover the SpecificInterface that we're storing in the
`Impl` struct. So we add a new instruction to the impl's eval block,
which will be symbolic when the impl is generic and the target interface
depends on a generic parameter. And we store the `InstId` in the `Impl`
struct. This allows us to gets its constant value later with the impl's
specific applied. From that constant value we can then pull out the
SpecificInterface that the impl is targeting.
This is in addition to finding a `where` on the RHS of another `where`.
Since a generic binding introduces `.Self`, any `where` expression that
isn't part of a facet type modifying the binding itself would introduce
an ambiguous `.Self`.
Add virtual parse nodes for let, var, and form bindings, which goes
before the type. This allows us to track if `where` appears in the
binding's type. We only need to look for an invalid `where` if any
appeared in the type. We combine these three nodes together into a
single node kind, which requires us to remove the name from it as a
child. We move it up to the Pattern node again, and rename the
PatternStart nodes to PatternTypeStart as they are now located in the
middle of the Pattern nodes, just before the type.
And we only need to thaw `.Self` in generic bindings. Non-generic
bindings can only have `.Self` through a `where` expression, since the
name is not provided otherwise to non-generic bindings. And `where`
expressions thaw their `.Self` independently. So the binding only needs
to thaw a `.Self` that it introduced, which is only for generic
bindings.
Split up the CppRange interface into smaller parts, with the intent of
improving the diagnostic quality and making the implementation easier to
understand.
This also makes the implementation details of the CppRange machinery
private, which breaks one of the existing tests; that test is split into
two files, one which tests the low-level machinery works, and another
that tests the resulting prelude behavior.
This change exposes a crash in `where` expression handling, where we
would perform a substitution that creates a new `SpecificConstant` that
refers into a region of a generic that has never been resolved. Fix that
by resolving the definition region of a generic if eval sees a
`SpecificConstant` that refers into it. This is usually not necessary
because something else should have resolved that region first, but that
doesn't happen here.
