This is in support of a goal of changing the blanket `destroy` impl to
use (roughly):
```
private fn CanAggregateDestroy() -> type = "type.can_aggregate_destroy";
// Handles aggregate type destruction.
impl forall [AggregateDestroyT:! CanAggregateDestroy()] AggregateDestroyT as Destroy {
fn Op[addr self: Self*]() = "type.aggregate_destroy";
}
```
That isn't done here because there's still other issues that migrating
raises. What this *does* do is add the builtin functions, and in
particular, support to `FacetTypeInfo` to make `CanAggregateDestroy`
work.
The "special requirement" approach in `FacetTypeInfo` allows us to
support restricting a blanket impl under the current approach of impls.
Maybe we'll find a cleaner approach that can work in the future, but
this fits into the current model by propagating similar to other
requirements. I'm using an enum mask because we have a number of similar
things to add (e.g. copy, move) but I'm not sure we need a full vector.
A few alternatives considered were:
- Supporting syntax more like `where .Self impls
TypeCanAggregateDestroy(.Self, SupportedInterface,
UnsupportedInterface)`. I think it'd be a little cleaner, but requires
better compile-time evaluation in order to assess the type of the call.
Right now it's expected to be a `FacetType` too early to make this work,
and I was concerned about pouring too much more time down this route.
- Providing an actual interface, in particular doing name lookup back
into `Core.` for an interface. This would've added name lookup overhead,
and the question of whether an `impl` exists.
- Generating an interface. This avoids the name lookup, but would still
raise the question of whether an `impl` should also be generated. Work
I've previously done generating interfaces for class destruction also
feels complex to both write and understand (an unfortunate issue).
- Still modeling as an `ImplsConstraint`, for example by defining a
special `InterfaceId::CanAggregateDestroy = -2` similar to what we do on
other ids. I was hesitant because of how this expands the number of
modes of `InterfaceId`, and things for consuming code to watch out for,
for what feels like a relatively niche set of use-cases that are only
interface-like.

If it's just `TypeType` then the `BindSymbolicName` appears directly in
type positions, but if it is replaced with another facet value, then we
would need to insert a `FacetAccessType` around it. By giving it a
`FacetType` type, like other `BindSymbolicName`s we make it consistent
and avoid having to introduce extra instructions.
This uses each vector's size as a barrier between lists, to eliminate
the possibility of incidental collisions between entries of different
lists. This is the same as is done inside `AddBlock`.
We add a virtual node (`CompileTimeBindingPatternStart`) as the first
child of `CompileTimeBindingPattern` which holds the identifier
underneath it, so that it is checked just before the type expression of
the `CompileTimeBindingPattern`. When we reach this virtual node during
check, we add `.Self` as a name in the current scope, and when we reach
`CompileTimeBindingPattern` we remove it from scope, which ensures it's
present during only the checking of the type expression for the compile
time pattern.
At the moment the `.Self` has a different type (it's a `TypeType`) than
other `.Self` in the facet type (which are a single `FacetType`), but
the intention is to immediately substitute it out of the facet type
entirely, replacing it with a reference to the compile time binding (a
`BindSymbolicName`) itself. A TODO has been added for this.

I was thinking about this for destruction, which I may not be able to
use it for, but still think this may be a good change to keep features
consistent.
Change impls from `<interface>.impl` to `<self>.as.<interface>.impl`,
and *member* functions to `<parent scope>.<fn>` (non-member functions
exclude their parent scope). Stop special-casing builtin functions,
given the new naming scheme.
The purpose of this is to make it clearer when a member function is
being accessed and, if so, which member function. In particular, we
often access interface `Op` functions. The builtin function
special-casing was intended to help with that, but we still have lots of
`Op` functions. This particular approach should make the interactions
clearer.
This changes up queueing of block IDs a little because, in particular,
we need to process bodies of entities only after constants finish
processing. But, it should also result in less memory usage during
processing because it means we have less on the insts stack at any given
time, since we track a block rather than all instructions contained by
the block.
This switches from the `CollectNamesInBlock` approach for entities, to
instead traversing entities as they're encountered. For example, when
traversing constants, when a type is found, the entity will have its
block queued for processing.
This leads to a change in the traversal order, which affects
disambiguation done by numeric sequencing (since that's just showing the
traversal order).
This will allow for simpler "name based on name" logic. This is
something I plan to use for:
- impls: `<type>.as.<interface>.impl`
- functions: `<entity>.<member function>`
- Note an impl may be used as the entity for a bound function.
By naming the entities as they're encountered, I'll be able to rely on
the generated names rather than recalculating them.
To assist this, I'm also differentiating between the ambiguous and
disambiguated name. Otherwise, we could end up with things like
`<function>.<disambiguator>.<call>.<other disambiguator>`, where the
repeated disambiguator may not be necessary in order to get full
disambiguation. It's also a smaller delta from the current output.
Note, changing `Name` to a class felt appropriate given its shape. I was
also noticing that parts of its API were unused, and the class helps
detect unused private members.

For some of these, it's just replacing with min_prelude/none.carbon.
Some had min_preludes specified, and I'm generally switching those to
none.carbon as well. The one exception is the destroy.carbon test, which
I noticed because of #5678
People seemed receptive [on
#toolchain](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/655578254970716160/1379196447827689553),
so proceeding.
For the two name conflicts, I've set it up so that there's a
"foo.carbon" and "foo_with_prelude.carbon", to indicate that the
no-prelude approach is preferred (with a shorter name).
Note min_prelude will require a little more work/thought, I want to
avoid adding `--custom-core` etc.
