Remove the type canonicalization mechanism and instead rely on constant
canonicalization to deduplicate types.
Rename the `Canonicalize*Type` functions to reflect that they're no
longer performing canonicalization. Switch code that creates types due
to semantic checking, rather than due to source syntax, to directly
create type constants through evaluation rather than creating an
instruction and evaluating it to produce a separate constant
representation.
The mapping from `const (const T)` that was previously performed by type
canonicalization is now implemented in expression evaluation instead.
The value `<error>` is now treated as a constant value, with a special
property that an instruction involving `<error>` that could possibly be
constant evaluates to `<error>`. This helps avoid producing follow-on
errors when an error occurs as a subexpression of an expression, such as
a type, that is intended to be constant.
The parse nodes are still tracked as part of the same value store
interface in order to ensure parity, but they're split out from Inst
itself in order to reduce the size of Inst -- the expectation is that
they don't need to be passed around quite as much.
This change doesn't actually reduce the passing very much, although
there are hints of it: AddInstAndPush doesn't typically need a separate
parse node from the one on the Inst itself, for example. In a couple
spots I changed code to rely a little more on the InstId until the
ParseNode is needed, but it's very low hanging fruit where done. I think
convert could do more to not eagerly fetch the parse node before its
use, but more cleanup felt it would be easier to handle separately. I'm
currently viewing this as making such cleanup _possible_ rather than
executing on it up-front.
But also, I want to make sure there's a consensus to head in this
direction before pulling the trigger. We speculated that this would
result in the parse node being passed around less, and I do think that's
the case, although it's a bit fuzzy in the change.

Goal is to increase type safety, though more work needs to be done (see
added TODOs).
Note that, after this change, check handlers corresponding to deleted
parse node kinds will no longer compile.

(Split out of #3410)
Consistently use `ParenExpr` solely for parenthesized single
expressions, and use more syntax-oriented terminology for states and
nodes that might represent either a `ParenExpr` or a tuple literal.
These are manual fixes; mostly from clang-tidy, some from clangd (which
notes unused includes).
In typed_insts, adding inlline due to misc-definitions-in-headers. Per
discussion, clang-tidy is wrong, but inline silences it.
For parameter name skew in definition versus declaration, I'm just using
the name from the definition.

1. In general, `semantics_ir` -> `sem_ir`, to match the directory name.
2. For the list of `ValueStore`-related accessors on `SemIR::File`, add
them to `check`'s `Context` object, shortening access.
Finishing what #3316 started, add more bespoke ValueStore-like
structures to File. With this, the things which previously had somewhat
boilerplate Add/Get functions are now all on side classes, giving a
uniform style of API for calling.
Note, I was on the fence about making things public on ValueStore. If
it's preferred that I make some things there protected I certainly can,
there's just a trade-off that may mean more distinct child/wrapper
types.
Split `node.h` into separate files for ID types (`id.h`) and for typed
nodes (`typed_nodes.h`). The per-node-kind data is now specified as part
of declaring the typed nodes, and is removed from the node kinds
x-macros, which now simply enumerate the node kinds.
Replace `SemIR::Node::GetAsFoo` and `SemIR::Node::Foo::Make` with
`SemIR::Foo` class that represents a particular kind of node, with named
fields.
Rename `SemIR::IntegerLiteral` and `SemIR::RealLiteral` to
`IntegerValue` / `RealValue` to better reflect their purpose and avoid a
name collision with the corresponding `SemIR` node kinds.
Remove `NodeKind::Invalid` and the `SemIR::Node` default constructor
entirely, as they were not used for anything.
The speculative insertion of StubReferences after elements in an
argument list turned out to not be necessary, because we decided we want
to insert per-argument initialization steps after all arguments are
evaluated, rather than interleaving them. The StubReferences we insert
are causing some minor code complexity, so remove them.
We still create StubReferences when performing patch-ups of
already-emitted code, but we no longer ever need to look through them
when determining whether an initializer was a literal or when evaluating
a type expression.
This implements initializing expression semantics for structs and
tuples, following #2006 and discussions since.
Tuple and (and analogously, struct) literals are treated as having a
mixed expression category that is later resolved based on how the
literal is used, as either a tuple initializer or a tuple value, at
which point we create a `TupleInit` or `TupleValue` that represents the
formation of the tuple initializer or tuple value from the tuple
literal.
There's quite a lot of TODOs here, and the SemIR representation is still
not quite right, but this seems like a good place to checkpoint some
incremental progress.
This better reflects the purpose of these semantics nodes, and prepares
for adding TupleValue and TupleInit nodes to represent forming values
and initializers from literals.
Continuing along with #3070. Note this is just a file rename, with BUILD
edits; every file previously in semantics/ should show as moved (except
maybe BUILDs, which split).
