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.
Fix a bunch of cases where we use the same external name to mean
multiple different things in the same test. We've historically gotten
away with this, but under `--share-cpp-ast`, it becomes an error, at
least if the entity is either defined in, or used from, C++ code.

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.

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.

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.
Add `ExportVarToCpp`. This checks the `clang_decls` mapping and returns
an existing decl if found. Otherwise, it creates a new `VarDecl` and
adds it to the `clang_decls` mapping.
When lowering, in `FileContext::BuildGlobalVariableDecl`, the
`clang_decls` mapping is used to lookup an existing
`llvm::GlobalVariable` for the instruction. If found, use that rather
than creating a new one to avoid an unwanted second definition in the
llvm IR.
Carbon-side thunks (for example the `Copy`/`Destroy` witness thunks
generated for imported C++ types) are mangled by Carbon, and their names
incorporate a fingerprint of the involved types. The instruction
fingerprinter identifies a class only by its name and parent scope,
which is sufficient for Carbon classes but not for imported C++ classes:
different specializations of one class template (and other cases such as
types in anonymous namespaces) share a Carbon name and parent scope. As
a result, the thunks for two distinct specializations could mangle to
the same name, producing a single LLVM function with two definitions and
failing `verifyModule` during lowering.
When fingerprinting a class imported from C++, also include the Clang
mangled name of its type.
Test: toolchain/lower/testdata/interop/cpp/thunks.carbon gains a split
with two specializations of one class template, each requiring a thunk;
their thunks now get distinct mangled names instead of colliding.

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.
Add import/ and export/ under function/. Move most top-level tests to a
new basics/ with subdirectories for `import` directives and `inline
Cpp`. Add subdirectory for primitive type handling. Move all `reverse/`
tests to somewhere else, typically under an `export/` directory.
I split two test files up: constexpr.carbon got split into var/ and
function/ pieces, and reverse/simple.carbon was inlined into
namespace/export.carbon. The rest are just simple renames.
This moves the LValue path code from macros.cpp to constant.cpp, so that
it can be called from `MapAPValueToConstant`. TODO messages are updated
accordingly to avoid referring to macros. Added a constexpr pointer test
to `constexpr.carbon` to show the result of this change.
Implementation of unused pattern bindings #2022, continued.
Whereas previous PR #6460 took care of parsing, and PR #6479 prepared
the stage by using _ in some test cases, this PR has the the actual
implementation, using a simple dataflow analysis.
