Shorthand names are intended to be used in the textual format of
references to instructions in another IR (which can't happen now, but
will be possible in a forthcoming PR). The shorthand name uses the file
name (minus the `.carbon` suffix) as a base, and if that base name is
ambiguous within the compilation, it is given a numerical suffix `.N`,
just like other textual IR names. Shorthand names are prefixed with `$`
in the textual format, to distinguish them from inst and scope names.
For example, a file `foo/bar.carbon` has the shorthand name `$bar`, and
an instruction `@baz.%qux` in that file can be referenced from another
file as `$bar.@baz.%qux`.
This PR adds `toolchain/check/testdata/basics/file_name.carbon` to test
this behavior. All other test changes are just applying this change to
the existing textual SemIR dumps.

Historically, we disabled the rendered form in tests outside of
`toolchain/diagnostics`. The idea was to keep tests shorter and avoid
very long chains of autoupdate before stabilizing due to all the line
numbers and other artifacts in the rendered form.
This PR adds `--diagnostic-line-numbers=[all|first]` and defaults to
`first` in tests. This keeps the rendered form so that we can easily
code review that form and the visual cues it does or doesn't provide.
But it removes all but the first location's line numbers to provide
significantly more stability in tests.
By default, tests get the full unicode line-drawing form of diagnostics
so we can ensure all of the artifacts there make sense with the specific
case being diagnosed, but we do retain some focused ASCII-rendering
tests to ensure that fallback remains usable.
There are some issues here that will be fixed in subsequent PRs.
Notably, we try to keep the frame together in the check lines, and so
force some parts to use the first location. This largely works, but
fails in some edge cases, causing the entire frame to be located
incorrectly. There is a TODO about this that we need to fix, and it only
occurs 6 times across the test suite, so it didn't seem worth
front-loading a fix for here.

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.
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`.
A first step in expanding support for default values for parameters in
generic functions.
Adds code to parameter type deduction to include default values for
absent call arguments. In support of that, this PR also generalizes a
function from `export.cpp` that is useful to extract a default
`ConstantId` value from an arbitrary function paramater pattern.
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.
As described in proposal #4682, make `array(T, N)` be syntactic sugar
for the type `Core.Array` defined in the standard library. This provides
a home for impls that are specific to `Core.Array`.

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.
---------
Co-authored-by: Richard Smith <richard@metafoo.co.uk>
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.
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`.
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.

In Convert, we require the source value's type to be compete so that we
can look for `base` classes and `adapt` relationships. However these can
only be present in a `ClassType`, so we only need `ClassType`s to be
complete.
Reduce the requirement in Convert to not complete types that are not a
`ClassType`, and which can not contain a `ClassType` as part of their
class.
Ideally we would only _only_ require the `ClassType` itself to be
complete, and only if we're looking for a base or adapt. However lower
depends on us completing all Convert source types that contain a class.
This seems to suggest we're lacking checks for complete types somewhere
else and Convert is making up for it. A TODO has been added. The
`toolchain/driver/testdata/compile/optimize/optimize_debug.carbon` test
is an example that CHECKs due to failing to verify the LLVM module if we
do not compute the complete type of all class-containing types in
Convert.
The critical step this PR is doing is to stop trying to complete a
`FacetType` when converting from a facet. This avoids trying to complete
a named constraint when converting `Self` inside that named constraint.
Doing so causes a cycle when the conversion of `Self` is performed in
eval of an `extend require` decl, since requiring the named constraint
to be complete re-evaluates the `extend require` decl again. A test is
added that crashed in an infinite loop before this change.
It also depends on #7584, which was intended to be an optimization but
is now load bearing. Because converting `Self` leaves an impl lookup
inst behind, and if that inst is re-evaluated inside impl lookup (by
forming a specific of a `require` decl through identify) then we have a
similar cycle.
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.
Implement the toolchain side of proposal #7254, removing the `:!`
binding
syntax for generic and template parameters in favor of the keywords
`generic`,
`template`, and `runtime` plus contextual defaults for phase.
For valid programs this is semantics-preserving: each binding resolves
to the
same phase, and produces the same SemIR, as it did under `:!`/`:`. The
parser
derives a binding's phase from its syntactic context plus any explicit
phase
keyword; new diagnostics and error recovery for misused keywords are
described
below.
Implementation details for each component:
- Lexer: remove the `:!` (`ColonExclaim`) token, move its virtual
parse-node
budget onto `:`, and add the `generic` and `runtime` keywords.
- Parser: thread a `BindingContext` (`ExplicitParam`, `DeducedParam`, or
`CompileTimeEntityParam`) from declaration introducers down through
parameter
lists to each binding pattern, using a one-token lookahead to
distinguish a
name-qualifier parameter list from a declaration's own final list.
Parameters
of a compile-time entity (`class`, `interface`, `constraint`, `choice`,
`alias`, `export`, `namespace`) and deduced `[]` parameters default to
checked
generic; explicit function parameters and local bindings default to
runtime.
`HandleBindingPattern` resolves the phase from that context plus the
keyword: a
`generic` keyword needs no node of its own (the phase is carried by the
binding's node kind), while a `runtime` keyword is preserved as a
`RuntimeBindingName` node so `check` can name it in a diagnostic. A
phase
keyword that is merely redundant with the contextual default is
diagnosed
here, without invalidating the parse tree.
- Check: a phase keyword that is invalid for its context (for example
`runtime`
on a checked-generic parameter) is diagnosed here, and recovers by
building an
error binding that still introduces the name so that later uses of it do
not
produce cascading errors.
The removed `:!` syntax is now rejected as an ordinary parse error.
The `form`/`:?`/`->?` ("extended types") portion of proposal #7254 is
left for a
separate change.

In #7436 we stopped substituting `.Self` when collecting witnesses out
of a facet type. While this was correct, it did not capture all the
cases that need to avoid substituting `.Self`. And it poisoned the
`IdentifiedFacetType` cache by not replacing `.Self` but storing the
result in the cache. This led to incoherent behaviour, where the result
of an impl lookup would change depending on which ones had been done
previously.
Now we use a flag to track for each `.Self` if we're currently
type-checking inside the scope where it was introduced in a facet type.
While inside that scope, identify should not replace the `.Self`. Any
use of it should remain as-is since we don't yet know what value will
replace it. We call this state "frozen" since it should not be modified
by identify. This requires a substitution step when we leave the scope
that introduced the `.Self`, to remove the flag. The flag is set in the
`EntityName` of the `SymbolicBinding`, and is part of the canonical
value, since `.Self` can become part of types, which are constants, and
the flag needs to follow it for correct behaviour.
We also have to ensure the flag is the same when doing comparison with
constants from inside a facet type and constants from outside. For
instance in `(Z where .Z1 = ()) where .Z2 = .Z1`, when we arrive at the
second `.Z1` its `.Self` will be frozen, while the `.Z1 = ()` contains a
non-frozen `.Self`. So we add the frozen flag to the first when storing
it in `where_stack` in order to compare the constant values of the two
`.Z1`.
The `WhereExpr` requirement inst kinds now have an `InstConstantKind` of
`AlwaysUnique` instead of `Never`. This allows us to add them to the
usual InstBlocks, and in an `eval fn` body they have a constant value,
so eval does not fail when trying to call that function. We have to be
careful to not consider `AlwaysUnique` as being actually concrete
though, since their constant value erases `.Self`-dependence. This
allows us to stop special casing them when thawing the requirements
block in a `WhereExpr`, and we can just thaw each `InstId` in the block
in a straightforward manner.
We add the new flag to the instruction's fingerprint and name in
formatted semir.
This adds SemIR structs and implements building `observe` lists, as well
as naming, formatting, and importing `observe` declarations.

In some cases the pattern block can depend on the initializer, so it
must be sequenced after it. See #7469 for a more detailed explanation of
why this is necessary.
The bulk of this change is changing most pattern insts to be `Always`
rather than `AlwaysUnique` constants, so that they can be wrapped in
`SpecificConstant`s to perform substitution. That then lets thunking
rely much more on `SpecificConstant` wrappers instead of deep-copying
the inst tree with modified types.
This approach to thunking should scale better, particularly as things
like form generics make function signatures more complex, because we can
leverage the existing support for constant evaluation and substitution.
Unfortunately, applying this approach to binding patterns will require
more work; see the TODO near the top of `thunk.cpp` for details.

Implements proposal #7016: `self` moves from the deduced implicit list
(`fn F[self: Self]()`) to the front of the explicit list. Its type may
be written explicitly (`fn F(self: Self)`) or omitted, in which case it
defaults to `Self` (`fn F(self)`, `fn F(ref self)`); `self` in the
implicit list is rejected.
Throughout checking, `self` is modeled as the first explicit parameter.
Because a method is just a function whose first parameter is `self`, it
can also be called as an ordinary function with the receiver passed
explicitly (`Type.M(obj, ...)`), not only as `obj.M(...)`. A new
`SemIR::CallArgParamPatterns` helper chooses the parameters matched
against the explicit arguments, excluding a leading `self` only when it
is supplied as a method-call receiver; arity checking, conversion, and
generic deduction use it. The resulting SemIR and lowering are
unchanged: `self` is still `call_param0`, and witnesses, thunks, and
vtables are unaffected.
An omitted `self` type is parsed as a `SelfBindingPattern` node with no
type expression; checking synthesizes the `Self` type so it behaves
exactly like `self: Self`. However, the exact spelling used must match
between a forward declaration and a definition, following #3763's rules
around declaration matching.
Generated functions, thunks, and C++ interop import/export build `self`
as the first explicit parameter, and the `self`-type override (e.g.
Derived->Base for a virtual override) applies to the explicit `self`.
Placement is validated by new diagnostics: `SelfInImplicitParamList`,
`SelfNotFirstParam`, and `SelfOutsideParamList`. The benchmark source
generator and the documentation adopt the `(self)` shorthand; the
prelude, the examples, and the test data are migrated in the following
commits.

We exposed `Core.IntLiteral()`, `Core.FloatLiteral()`,

because we had no way to provide the type names without parentheses that
the design requests. But now we can do so, by using an alias. Switch all
of these over from being functions to simply being names of the
corresponding types.

Fix import logic to make all imported packages be children of the
`NameScopeId::Package` scope. Previously, indirectly-imported packages
would end up as children of their importing package's scope, which
resulted in them not being treated as packages at all, and in particular
not being fingerprinted as packages.
Fixing that caused a failure in the fingerprinting logic as we started
to encounter packages with no correspoding import scopes. Instead of
looking for import scopes, use a simpler mechanism to map packages to
their package names, and clean up.
Unfortunately the latter change churns all the fingerprints again :(
Hopefully this is the last time for a while.
When we import from another library in the same package, its entities
end up with our library as their parent scope, resulting in cross-file
fingerprint mismatches. Instead, only include the library ID when
fingerprinting either a package-private entity or an `ImportIRId` that
refers to a particular `SemIR::File`.
Fixes link failures when referencing a symbol involving a fingerprint
from a different package.
Previously we included the `Namespace`'s `import_id` as part of its
fingerprint, which caused local and imported namespaces to get different
fingerprints. We now store the `import_id` on the `NameScope` instead of
on the `Namespace` inst to avoid this problem.
Also, when we reach a package-level `NameScopeId`, consistently
fingerprint it as a (package name, library name) pair. Previously the
fingerprinting depended on whether it was imported or not, as an
imported `NameScopeId` had a parent scope (the current package). We need
to include the library name here so that private entities with the same
name in different libraries have different fingerprints.
When a class extends an interface, referring to a member name of the
interface as an unqualified name should refer to the class's
corresponding associated entity value, not to the associated entity
itself. Similarly, in an `impl`, unqualified names of associated
entities should refer to the `impl`'s corresponding value for that
entity.
To support this, we treat `impl`s as `extend`ing their implemented facet
type, and we make lookups into an extended facet type use the `Self`
type of the extending `impl` or `class` if lookup finds an associated
entity. We already did the latter if the extending entity was an
interface; this extends the existing support for these other cases.
Class vars are still restricted to simple `name: type` bindings, not
full patterns. This is now handled in the check phase instead of during
parsing.
This is in preparation for supporting `static var`.
This lets us stop eliding it in textual semir tests with dump ranges.
Previously it would always get elided, even though it was part of the
range being dumped, and was referred to by other instructions in the
dump range.
Since each `.Self` is unique (can change its type if not its value) in a
facet type, having each one distinct by location also aids
understanding.

for the design doc.
This also removes the default value of the `result_type_inst_id`
parameter of `HandleAction`, moves it before the action in the parameter
list, and documents it. This solves two problems:
- The default made it easy to forget, leading to unnecessary
`TypeOfInst` instructions.
- When it was present, putting it after the fairly "bulky" action
argument tended to make the callsite harder to read.
This is only fixing the decision about *whether* to produce a witness.
Implementation of the witness is still a TODO, though where a body is
generated, it should also precisely reflect where one _needs_ to be
generated.
Note the tests:
- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_core_witness.carbon
- toolchain/lower/testdata/function/generic/import_unused_def.carbon
These tests can probably be produced _without_ Core.Destroy, but I found
the essence of them while trying to build //examples with Core.Destroy
and a simpler minimization wasn't striking me.

This will be used for const-evaling functions. Splitting into a separate
commit since it touches a lot of test files, and a couple fail_todo
tests are no longer failing.
EvalOrAddInst has to create a non-canonical instruction for evaluating a
few typed insts, such as LookupImplWitness which uses an InstId to
provide a location for diagnostics.
But the output of the function is a ConstantId. We do not have access to
the non-canonical InstId after the function returns. But if the constant
value was symbolic, it was being attached to the inst, and the inst
would be added to the eval block of the enclosing generic. This
needlessly added semir for a symbolic value.
The ConstantId returned by EvalOrAddInst can be used immediately, such
as to evaluate an ImplWitnessAccess. In that case, the final evaluated
result is all we need to keep in semir.
If the ConstantId needs to be replaced by specifics, it is only as part
of some other instruction, since ConstantIds themselves are not modified
by specifics, instructions are. In that case, the canonical instruction
in the constant value would have been added to some other (now symbolic)
instruction, which would be replaced by a specific.
This has no functional change, but it reduces runtime overhead and semir
output for LookupImplWitness and ImplWitnessAccess.
Performing a lookup against `Self` inside the definition of the named
constraint leads to cycles, as described in the document [Self
contradictions in Named
Constraints](https://docs.google.com/document/d/17rn2XmME8o2MM4OJqatSVuMa1iYZ1PAgcNrf0PXR9Q4/edit?tab=t.0).
To prevent those cycles, this change introduces a large refactoring of
impl lookup.
The impl lookup done inside eval is reduced to only performing
monomorphization. That is it:
- Only looks for an provides final witnesses.
- Is not allowed to identify the facet type of the query self.
- Returns either a final witness or None (or an error)
The paths for finding non-final witnesses are now done outside of eval,
directly in the initial `LookupImplWitness()` function. If no final
witness it found through eval, the resulting non-final
`LookupImplWitness` instruction witness is returned. It does not produce
cycles to identify the facet type of query self outside of eval, since
that does not result in repeating the identification when resolving
specifics of the named constraint or require decl.
Move the ArrayStack for Context::require_impls_stack into a new class
which tracks a NamedConstraintId (or InterfaceId) for each frame of
RequireImplsIds, so that in type completion we always can find the
correct frame for a given named constraint which is still being defined,
in order to find the RequireImplsIds in the in-progress definition.
