Chandler Carruth 8be274cf60 Replace :! binding syntax with phase keywords and contextual defaults (#7479)
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.

Geoff Romer 1a3966d2c4 Build VarStorage insts more efficiently. (#7422)
Instead of traversing the entire pattern block looking for
`VarPattern`s, we keep track of them on creation, and then build
`VarStorage`s directly from that list.

This also gets rid of the global `var_storage_map`, and instead keep
that information narrowly scoped to each full-pattern, and consume it in
a single linear traversal instead of with random-access lookups. To
enable that, this fixes a parse bug where nested `var` patterns were
getting diagnosed but not marked as errors.

Nicholas Bishop bd918fb33b Parse vars in classes the same as vars in other locations (#7188)
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`.

Richard Smith 181a592b8c Support for parsing expression patterns (#6977)
When parsing a pattern, if we encounter something that isn't pattern
syntax, try parsing as an expression instead. We only need one-token
lookahead to distinguish pattern syntax from expression syntax.

Track a precedence group through pattern parsing so that we can allow
different kinds of expressions in a top-level pattern (such as the
operand of `let`) and in a nested pattern (such as a subpattern of a
tuple pattern or within grouping parens). For example, we do not allow
`case if ...`, and for now I've chosen to also not allow logical or
relational operators at the top level of a pattern, so `case 1 + 1` is
OK, but `case 1 == 1` and `case true and false` require parentheses.
This decision should be ratified or revisited by a design proposal.

Very basic check support is also provided, only sufficient to form an
`ExprPattern` instruction and nothing beyond that. For now, all pattern
matching against an `ExprPattern` fails with a TODO error. To support
that, I've switched from calling `BeginSubpattern` in the parent handler
of a pattern and `EndSubpatternAs*` in the pattern handler itself to
calling both functions in parent handlers, with `EndSubpattern`
converting an expression into an expression pattern where needed.

Depends on #6976.

Geoff Romer 4a0cf6c1fb Track the start of a signature more accurately (#6760)
This change ensures that a function signature always starts with an
`IdentifierNameMaybeBeforeSignature` node (renamed from
`IdentifierNameBeforeParams`), even in the case of function declarations
like `fn F -> T` that have no parameter list. As a consequence, this
ensures that we push new entries onto `pattern_block_stack` and
`full_pattern_stack` when we start processing the function signature.

Geoff Romer 8c113c1241 Rename Parse::State to Parse::StateKind (#5249)
Also renames variables of that type to match. A follow-up PR will rename
`Parse::StateStackEntry` to `Parse::State`. This is more consistent with
the naming of similar enums elsewhere in the toolchain, and with the
prevailing practice of using `state` rather than e.g. `entry` as the
name of a `StateStackEntry`.

Jon Ross-Perkins 6b5eb1a101 Id::Invalid -> Id::None (#4834)
High level, replacing `Id::Invalid` with `Id::None` and `Id::is_valid`
with `Id::has_value` for clarity, as discussed
[here](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/655578254970716160/1331664574545395794).
The `IntId` refactoring is needed together with `AnyIdBase` because it's
also used with `ValueStore`.

Note, trying to be careful not to rewrite `EnumBase::InvalidIndex`, or
`is_valid` in general (e.g., `IdKind::is_valid`).

I've tried to sequence commits here:

1. Automatic replacements:

- `((?:Id|Index)(?: |::|\(|Base(?:\(|::)))Invalid((?:Index)?\W)` ->
`$1None$2`
  - `<invalid>` -> `<none>`
  - `InvalidNodeId` -> `NoneNodeId`
  - `/\*invalid\*/` -> `/*none*/`
  - `id((?:_|\(\))(?:\.|->))is_valid` -> `id$1has_value`

2. Manual edits:

  - In `int.h` and `int_test.cpp`
    - `IntT` has `is_value`, which I'm renaming to `is_embedded_value`.
    - Manual edits to comments in this file.
  - `AnyIdBase` and `IdBase`
- Declaration of `is_valid` -> `has_value`, `InvalidIndex` ->
`NoneIndex`.
  - In `ids.h` and `ids.cpp`
    - `is_valid` -> `has_value`
- `// An explicitly invalid ID.` -> `// An ID with no value.`; similar
for index
    - Various math on `InvalidIndex` -> `NoneIndex`
    - Various mentions of "valid" in comments
  - In `value_store.h`, for `IdT::Invalid`, plus one comment
- In `impl.h` and `tokenized_buffer.h`, we had different initialization
of `::None` values (versus `ids.h` syntax) that I fixed manually.
  - Spot checks to compile
- Particularly where `is_valid` replacements didn't catch spots due to
different naming.

3. Autoupdate tests

4. verbose.carbon (NOAUTOUPDATE)

5. Comment spot checks

Note there are probably other mentions of "Invalid" that should be swept
up, but I'd like to argue for merging and separating out remaining
cleanup since this is so sweeping (and likely to hit merge conflicts
from churn). We'll probably have lingering mentions of "invalid" for a
bit regardless, just because there are uses of "invalid" in non-Id APIs.

Jon Ross-Perkins f67791cfee Separate subtree size information from parse nodes. (#4174)
Move subtree sizes over to TreeAndSubtrees, using the different
structure to represent the additional parse work that occurs, as well as
making it clear which functions require the extra information. My intent
is to make it hard to use this by accident.

The subtree size is still tracked during Parse::Tree construction. I
think a lot of that can be cleaned up, although we use it during
placeholder assignment so it may take some work. I wanted to see what
people thought about this before taking action on such a change.

I'm using a 1m line source file generated by #4124 for testing. Command
is `time bazel-bin/toolchain/install/prefix_root/bin/carbon compile
--phase=check --dump-mem-usage ~/tmp/data.carbon`

At head, what I'm seeing is:

```
...
parse_tree_.node_impls_:
  used_bytes:      61516116
  reserved_bytes:  61516116
...
Total:
  used_bytes:      447814230
  reserved_bytes:  551663894
...
1.43s user 0.14s system 99% cpu 1.565 total
```

With `Tree::Verify` disabled completely, it looks like:
```
parse_tree_.node_impls_:
  used_bytes:      41010744
  reserved_bytes:  41010744
...
Total:
  used_bytes:      427308858
  reserved_bytes:  531158522
...
1.20s user 0.13s system 99% cpu 1.332 total
```

Re-enabling just the basic verification (what is now `Tree::Verify`),
I'm seeing maybe 0.05s slower, but that's within noise for my system. I
do see variability in my timing results, and overall I think this is a
0.2s +/- 0.1s improvement versus the earlier (always testing `Extract`
code) implementation. That's opt; debug builds will be unaffected,
because the same checking occurs as before.

Note, the subtree size is a third of the node representation, which is
why I'm showing the decrease in memory usage here.

Chandler Carruth 8c64f0bfdd Add -Wmissing-prototypes and fix issues it finds. (#4019)
Most of these are places where we failed to include a header file and
simply never got an error about this. The fix is to include the header
file.

Most other cases are functions that should have been marked `static` but
were not. Finding all of these was a main motivation for me enabling the
warning despite how much work it is.

One complicating factor was that we weren't including the `handle.h` for
all the state-based handler functions. While this isn't a tiny amount of
code, it is just declarations and doesn't add any extra dependencies. It
also lets us have the checking for which functions need to be `static`
and which don't. For the `parse` library I had to add the `handle.h`
header as well, I tried to match the design of it in `check`.

I have also had to work around a bug in the warning, but given the value
it seems to be providing, that seems reasonable. I've filed the bug
upstream: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/94138

I also had to use some hacks to work around limitations of Bazel rules
that wrap `cc_library` rules and don't expose `copts`. I filed a bug for
`cc_proto_library` specifically:

Jon Ross-Perkins 096f1dc68a Rename functions which only print a diagnostic to Diagnose* (#3886)
This is something I noticed working on
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/3884; I think we
have more functions named Diagnose* at present than Emit* or Report*, so
just trying to consolidate. Note a couple Diagnose* functions do a
little more validation, but maybe those should actually be renamed away
(zygoloid had mentioned wanting to generally split out diagnostics to
their own function, and then we'd have it be a more common pattern).

Jon Ross-Perkins 03347793cc Switch VariableInitializer order to accommodate GlobalInit (#3708)
This undoes parts of #3515 in order to allow PushGlobalInit to be called
when the initializer is called, instead of at the end of the binding
pattern. The current approach is fragile because supported patterns will
become more complex. We also will likely want similar support in `let`,
which puts the initializer first, so this offers a consistent approach
for both.

[Looking
back](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/655578254970716160/1184237511766179840),
this is more or less the second option in that message, but using the
PeekNextIs to avoid vagueness about what's being popped first.

Note I'm putting in PeekNextIs for what I'm hoping will be a pretty
narrow use-case. I could've added depth arguments to the Peek functions,
but that would've rippled through a number of APIs and it's not clear to
me that this has generic utility. I mean, right now it could just be
PeekNextIsVariableInitializer, since it's only optional in that case.

Implement toolchain support for `returned var` and `return var`.

- Modeled `returned` in the parse tree as a `ReturnedSpecifier`

- Modeled `return var` in the parse tree as a `ReturnVarSpecifier`
appearing after the `ReturnStatementStart`.
- Factored out the implementation of `return` statement and `returned
var` handling in check into a new `return.{h,cpp}`. The parse nodes
themselves are still handled in `handle_*.cpp`. This allows easy code
reuse between `return` and `returned var`.
