This change makes dumping and debugging work again with InstIds that are
now tagged with the CheckIRId. The textual representation of an InstId
is changed from `irN.instM` back to `instM` but the `M` is now a hex
value with the tag as part of it, which is the same number that is
physically in the `InstId::index` field. This prevents any cases where
we would potentially print incorrect values for large InstIds.
We teach the `dump` command in lldb to parse hex values for InstId so
that we can paste these numbers back into the debugger.
Locations are similarly fragile, because adding a comment changes them.
This has made me pause when making prelude changes in #6144, so dropping
them for those cases.
Instruction ids aren't actually that interesting outside debugging, and
can be churny when doing other structural changes. I've seen this in
particular when doing singleton changes, which bump every instruction
id.
Note there are still other ways fragility from locations can crop up.
This shouldn't be considered a complete fix, but hopefully a small
improvement.
toolchain/check/testdata/builtins/char/basics.carbon and
toolchain/lower/testdata/builtins/char.carbon are probably the most
interesting tests here. The parse tests is required because this adds a
new node kind, and we need coverage of it; but the attached info is
minor. There's a fair amount of test churn here because I'm adding the
Core.Char and Core.CharLiteral types as new singletons.
My intent here is that `CharId` is always a unicode code point, even
when the type is a `Char` and thus must be a single UTF-8 code unit
(single byte). This mainly means the stored value of a `CharValue` can
be printed internally without knowing the type.

Currently if the first operand contains an error, we will return error,
even though the second operands contains a runtime, and it has a
stronger priority (the phase always goes up if possible).
Import is only allowed on instructions with compile-time values, so we
crash if we ever try to import a runtime value. Importable instructions
must diagnose unexpected runtime values and produce errors in the semir
from which they would be imported so that runtime values are never
imported by another semir.
If we had an instruction where you had an error value from the first
operand, and runtime from the second, and we imported it:
- Before https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/5728 we
would crash in import, but only because we treated errors as runtime
- After https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/5728 we
would import ErrorInst because we propagate errors. This is desirable
for cases with compile-time values and errors present only.
- After this PR, we would crash again, cuz you're importing a runtime
thing.
This change means that instructions containing an
`InstConstantKind::Never` instruction like`ValueParam` will consistently
evaluate to a runtime value, even if there are errors present. This is
visible in the `BindName` instructions changing in the semir, where they
became constant `ErrorInst` values previously but no longer do.
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.
