Implements proposal #7016: `self` moves from the deduced implicit list
(`fn F[self: Self]()`) to the front of the explicit list. Its type may
be written explicitly (`fn F(self: Self)`) or omitted, in which case it
defaults to `Self` (`fn F(self)`, `fn F(ref self)`); `self` in the
implicit list is rejected.
Throughout checking, `self` is modeled as the first explicit parameter.
Because a method is just a function whose first parameter is `self`, it
can also be called as an ordinary function with the receiver passed
explicitly (`Type.M(obj, ...)`), not only as `obj.M(...)`. A new
`SemIR::CallArgParamPatterns` helper chooses the parameters matched
against the explicit arguments, excluding a leading `self` only when it
is supplied as a method-call receiver; arity checking, conversion, and
generic deduction use it. The resulting SemIR and lowering are
unchanged: `self` is still `call_param0`, and witnesses, thunks, and
vtables are unaffected.
An omitted `self` type is parsed as a `SelfBindingPattern` node with no
type expression; checking synthesizes the `Self` type so it behaves
exactly like `self: Self`. However, the exact spelling used must match
between a forward declaration and a definition, following #3763's rules
around declaration matching.
Generated functions, thunks, and C++ interop import/export build `self`
as the first explicit parameter, and the `self`-type override (e.g.
Derived->Base for a virtual override) applies to the explicit `self`.
Placement is validated by new diagnostics: `SelfInImplicitParamList`,
`SelfNotFirstParam`, and `SelfOutsideParamList`. The benchmark source
generator and the documentation adopt the `(self)` shorthand; the
prelude, the examples, and the test data are migrated in the following
commits.

The `unused` modifier is rejected on parameters of a function
declaration, but the check only covered the explicit parameter list, so
an implicit parameter (such as self or a compile-time binding) could
carry unused without a definition. Check the implicit parameter list
too.
The code changes and the test updates are split into two commits for
easier review.

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.

Adds min-preludes more tests which were seen as slow and their
surrounding neighbours. This drops the file_test runtime on my machine
from about 6s to about 4.5s.
For a few files that are clearly only testing diagnostics, we drop the
if-present semir ranges and the associated TODO.
Where `--no-dump-sem-ir` is used, change to `--dump-sem-ir-ranges=only`.
Otherwise, add `--dump-sem-ir-ranges=if-present` with a TODO to change
to `only`.
Note, SemIR is affected just because the extra comments change line
numbers in files where splits aren't in use.
In preparation for shifting from `TypeId`s potentially representing
attached types to always representing unattached types, using
[terminology suggested on
Discord](https://discord.com/channels/655572317891461132/963846118964350976/1359286326779973712).
This change causes us to track slightly more type spelling information
through SemIR.
One change that has significant impact on the SemIR output is that we
now build a `struct_type` instruction in each class representing the
types of the fields, including the spelling used for those types. This
is now no longer always identical to the corresponding canonical
`struct_type` for the object representation, so it's built separately
and owned by the class.
Also remove `TypeBlock` support entirely, as its only use was
representing `TupleType`s, which now use an `InstBlock`.
This tripped over a lowering crash when a member function with self was
declared-but-not-defined, so that's why some test cases were updated to
have (empty) function definitions.
I'll follow-up with/look into a fix for the
self-declared-but-not-defined cases separately.

This removes some churn when adding new diagnostic cases to test files
(where previous to this change the newly added newline would cause the
previous diagnostic CHECKs to be updated including changes to the line
number because the CHECK for the blank line meant an extra line between
CHECK and source line).
A few alternatives discussed here:

Add a Vtable typed inst with a type_id (of the type this vtable applies
to) and list of virtual function decls (or import refs to function
object constants).
This doesn't add lowering/emission of the vtable, or usage when
initializing objects of the type.
Some questions in case they're interesting to discuss:
* is it right/worth having the type_id in the vtable? (probably makes it
easier to emit - using the type to get the class name to figure out the
mangled name for the vtable) perhaps it should be a ClassId?
* I'm thinking the logic in CheckCompleteClassType could be the place we
handle diagnostics for mismatched keywords (virtual/abstract for a
function that's already virtual/abstract, maybe checking for non-virtual
functions with the same name in a base class, or derived class functions
without `impl`, etc) - but we could move some of that to the moment we
walk the function decl, and record our findings in the function decl
(record the base function it overrides, or the index of the vtable to
slot to use when building the vtable at the end of the class)
* the Vtable typed inst has `constant_kind = InstConstantKind::Always`
and `is_lowered = false`, I think I added that in to workaround/address
some failures in lowering. And seems correct for this intermediate step
- I'll add lowering in a follow-up patch. But the constant_kind - what
should this be? We can just say all vtables are of VtableType (in which
case the `Always` constant kind sounds right to me) or we could have
them introduce a type with each virtual function as a named member,
even?

When printing a Class, the complete_type_witness was printed last but
this gave a somewhat misleading representation as it appeared to be part
of the !members label. Move it above the label so that the label more
clearly refers to everything below it.
This change deliberately breaks away from the line/column ordering, and
instead focuses on a last byte offset corresponding to the final token
processed as part of producing the message. Where that's equal, this
maintains stable ordering in order to reflect the order that diagnostics
were produced.
The intent of this approach is that lex, parse, and check diagnostics
are interleaved based on where they are produced, but that
subexpressions still have diagnostics emitted prior to containing
expressions. In particular, the prior line/column sort essentially
sorted on the _start_ of where a diagnostic was associated, and this is
closer to sorting based on the _end_. As a consequence, something like
`F(1 2)` will have the error for `1 2` emitted _before_ a diagnostic for
`F(1 2)` not matching parameters, instead of _after_.
In check, we track the last handled node. This provides a
last_byte_offset _separate_ from where a diagnostic is associated. The
intent is that this creates an ordering of diagnostics which may be
associated with earlier code, to cause the diagnostics to be emitted
later. An example consequence of this is the change in ordering of
modifier diagnostics: we are diagnosing those from the same place, but
they have the same last_byte_offset, so we print them out in the order
produced.
I've added similar tracking to parse, but cannot identify any test which
is affected by it (note the separate commit, I thought about this late).
I'm not sure whether we have good out-of-order errors we could produce
for this.
A significant number of tests have reordered diagnostics as a
consequence of this change, so this change does not add further testing.
Use it in the instruction namer to make instruction names more stable
across unrelated changes to the toolchain or the prelude.

This seems slightly redundant for a locally-defined class, where there
will be a complete_type_witness instruction earlier in the class, but is
important for imported classes, where we're currently doing the wrong
thing in a way that's invisible in formatted SemIR.
- Do not include entities imported from files that we are not dumping.
- Do not include constants and import_refs that are not referenced by
something that we are including in the formatted output.

This is in particular to avoid churn from changes such as #4370. I think
the import list can be helpful (particularly to understand what the
library is aware of), but it's a different trade-off for the prelude
package due to the implicit imports.
This PR makes it so that types can implement the `IndexWith` interface
so that they can provide their custom indexing behavior.

Also surround it in square brackets rather than parentheses. This
matches the format used by Clang and GCC, and means diagnostics will
still match the `file:line:col: error: ` pattern used by some IDE tools.
Before:
```console
fail_builtins.carbon:11:11: error(AliasRequiresNameRef): alias initializer must be a name reference
```
After:
```console
fail_builtins.carbon:11:11: error: alias initializer must be a name reference [AliasRequiresNameRef]
```
Also tighten up test regex to only match on `STDERR` lines that list a
file name.
This is to help identify which diagnostics we're actually using.
Note that driver/testdata still has tests which don't pass this flag,
and so continue to test the kind-less (default) behavior.
I'm taking the approach of making DiagnosticBase an API so that we can
pass similar diagnostics as parameters. An alternative would be to do
the function_ref approach we've done elsewhere, but these felt more
boilerplate to me.
Note I'm also modifying messages here. Let me know if you'd like
different changes and/or just keeping current formatting (keeping
current formatting would also allow removing some of the templating I've
added, but it felt helpful putting explicit tokens where possible). But
also, things like "`protected` not allowed on `interface` declaration at
file scope" were part of the phrasing issue, I think.

A small step to virtual functions - adding vtable pointers to the
layout, but not initializing or otherwise using them at this stage.
A few open design questions I'd love feedback on:
* Is this the right/good enough SemIR representation for now? This patch
adds a `is_dynamic` attribute to `SemIR::Class` and populates/flags it
based on the flag of the base class, or if any virtual function is
declared in the class (or, at least that's my intent). Some other
options include:
* Each `Class` could store a `ClassId` (or `TypeId`?) of the (possibly
indirect, possibly self) base class that is the first one that is
dynamic/has a vtable pointer
* Could make the property narrower, like `has vtable pointer` and have
it `true` only on the type that introduces the vtable - then derived
classes would have to walk their base classes to check if they're the
one that needs to define the vtable pointer or not
* Should the vtable be the first element in the type? If there's a
non-dynamic base type, we could have a layout that's `{<non-dynamic base
type>, vtable ptr, <derived members>}`? Derived types would still be
able to uniquely identify where their vtable pointer is just fine... -
and the vtable pointer is, in a sense, a member of that intermediate
type, so it does seem a bit strange to force it to the front - but I
guess it's probably more efficient in some ways?
Open to any other suggestions/advice/thoughts on the direction, etc.

Not sure about error recovery options - can/should we drop the
definition as a means of recovery when building the SemIR? I guess
probably not, so I guess this change is about right.
Phrasing of the error message I'm certainly open to.
Introduces the `BindingPattern` and `SymbolicBindingPattern` insts, and
a separate stack of pattern blocks that they are emitted into. The
intent is to generate the corresponding pattern-matching insts (like
`BindName`) from them in a separate pass, but that is deferred to future
PRs.
See
[here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1U_vQH17V893J9aF1LJXUnFYBNSs2MjKl4bJPaWCB2zo/edit?usp=sharing&resourcekey=0-w0xGYZ0An31Kpz-wvzSXwQ)
for the design this is based on, but note that during review we have
chosen to deviate from that design by putting the patterns in separate
blocks, and omitting the "forward references" from a `BindingPattern` to
its corresponding `BindName`. This in turn necessitates having separate
inst kinds for symbolic and non-symbolic binding patterns.

Omit the `note: ` prefix and the snippet from the "in import" note that
precedes a diagnostic.
This makes our diagnostic output more closely match that of Clang and
GCC.
This is a primarily automated change:
- Search & replace for capitalization
-
`(CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC\((?:\n\s+)?\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s")([A-Z])`
- `$1\L$2`
- Search & replace for period
-
`(CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC\((?:\n\s+)?\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s\w+,(?:\n\s+)?\s"(?:[^)]|\n)+)\.("[,)])`
- `$1$2`
- Limited search & replace for `ERROR: ` -> `error: ` in streamed things
- Leaving a TODO for command_line because there's more cleanup that can
be done there
- Modify diagnostic_consumer.cpp
- ERROR -> error
- WARNING -> warning

Add support for initializing types like `GenericClass(i32)` from a
struct literal. A new kind of instruction, `complete_type_witness`, is
added to the class definition to track the object representation type so
that it's visible to the generics machinery. Accesses to the object
representation of a class have all been updated to pass in the class's
`SpecificId` so that the types of the fields of the specific class are
used instead of the types of the fields of the generic class in places
that look at the object representation -- primarily class
initialization.
Add these interfaces to the core library. For now, they're two separate
interfaces because we don't yet support one interface extending another.
This collapses a lot of the layering in check: for example, the call
building logic depends on implicit conversions, conversions now depend
on the overloaded operator machinery, and that machinery depends on
building calls.
In passing, improve the diagnostics for failing to find a name required
from the prelude. Also convert all the transitively-called code from
`NodeId` to `LocId` given the latter is what the conversion machinery
has available.

Support for types (particularly classes) is left as a TODO.
There's also an issue I'm observing with a "define in impl" test, but
this is probably an issue with resolving the prior declaration which is
imported indirectly. The PR was already feeling big, so I'm choosing to
cut here.
Note, this does not implement the rule "The owning library's API file
must import the `extern` declaration, and must also contain a
declaration."
This implements a few closely related features:
- Starts merging namespaces discovered inside imports.
- Stores results of cross-package name lookup as an entry inside the
scope.
- Note this is particularly visible with `i32`.
- Moves more of the imported instructions to the import scope.
Note this is primarily for executing the namespace TODO in check.cpp,
which is removed here.
`testdata/namespace/merging_with_indirections.carbon` tests key
behavior.

Also adds import_ir_scope to namespace formatting. I'd done this as an
aid for #4153, and am splitting it out.

By adding an `ImportDecl` instruction, this creates something that can
be referenced through `ImportIRInst`.
packages/no_prelude/implicit_imports_entities.carbon is getting a test
of this (import_conflict and import_conflict_reverse).
Also re-packs ImportIR from 24 bytes to 16 on 64-bit, since I'm touching
everywhere that makes one anyways.
Adds access to the name lookup table in name scopes. This is so that we
can quickly check access during name lookup without resolving the entity
itself. Does this for names in general, but does not implement handling
for entity-scoped names, only namespace-scoped names (where they're
essentially just not exported).
Excludes `private` names from exports. Although names should be
accessible to `impl` files, that's not implemented here because we'll
probably want to do it by directly copying name lookup tables.
This has is a nice-to-have for me. Frequently I want to run a specific
test, and end up digging through output to be able to copy-paste the run
line. This uses TIP lines to inject the command into the file when using
AUTOUPDATE.
Note, one of the reasons I want this is because "bazel test
//toolchain/testing:file_test --test_output=all" has been regularly
exceeding bazel's output limit for me (workaround is either opening the
output file or specifying an obscure output limit flag), making it a
little harder for me to get the commands. However, frequently I'm adding
a file and want to iterate on it, so that's really the use case I have
in mind here.
This doesn't actually track whether a declaration is `extern`. It does,
however:
- Factor out and expand merge support for classes, sharing handling with
functions.
- This makes the ClassRedefinition diagnostic redundant, as the
redeclaration checking overlaps.
- Add partial `extern` handling to class handling; just some
verifications of correct use.
- Factor out `extern` on member handling for sharing with `fn`.
- Fixes a bug in import_ref where a class's definition_id wasn't
assigned when defining.
This changes how a redefinition is handled (replaced, rather than
merged). I don't know whether that's ideal, but I think it results in
easy-to-understand consequences, and it's more consistent with how `fn`
works.
There's enough work here that this felt like a decent cut point,
particularly as the amount of work to actually add `extern` tracking
will be significant.
- Adds an empty prelude.carbon file
- Imports that file in any non-Core package file
- Adds --disable-prelude-import to avoid that
- Adds --exclude-dump-file-prefix to be able to hide files from dumping
- Used to hide core files (we can't do this by package name due to lex
dumps, for example)
- Restructures some tests to not rely on `i32`, particularly `alias`
tests (which rely on a name ref) and tests with no prelude.
I'm adding the framework for switching i32 to calling Int32 in the
prelude, but I'm running into a separate error actually switching over.
So that *mostly* works, but isn't quite ready for prime time. However,
maybe the current state of this PR is still useful to review since it
does a lot of the infrastructure work and adds the %Core everywhere?
The purpose of the newline is to make it clearer where a given
diagnostic begins and ends, particularly as the first message of a
diagnostic may not be the error.
This is a trivial code change, but ripples edits through test files.
This doesn't add full support. I'm separating it out to make the effects
of the modifier changes clearer for review. I'm restructuring a little
with the expectation that we'll have some more categories of modifier
keywords in the future (similar to `extern`, these may not be in a "set"
such as access), and thus easily scaling up to a few more would be
useful.
Rather than just adding `Self` to the lexical scope, add it to the
class's name scope so that it is visible in later lexical scopes for the
same class -- in particular, for out-of-line definitions of members.
Also switch some tests in `check/testdata/class` over to making
idiomatic use of `Self` both inside a class and out-of-line, now that it
works more consistently.
Note that this does not permit using `Class.Self`, but only because we
don't yet support keyword names after `.` at all. If that changed, one
could use `Class.Self` to redundantly refer to `Class`. Whether we allow
that is left to a future decision.
