With the toolchain splitting namespaces, ostream.h's `operator<<`
templates aren't reliably found with name lookup, likely due to the loss
of associated namespaces (zygoloid commented on this at
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/3161#discussion_r1307941999).
This is especially a barrier to moving the lex files into `Carbon::Lex`;
versus other parts of the toolchain, they contain more printable types
which are used cross-namespace, including `Carbon::Testing`. As a
consequence, I'm looking at migrating ostream.h to a more reliable
approach that doesn't rely as much on everything being in the `Carbon`
namespace.
The strategy that we use for now to support template instantiation is to check the impl declaration as if it were a generic, but to defer all checking of the impl definition until we see a use in which all template parameters have arguments. At that point, we clone the impl definition and type-check the whole thing, with constant values set on the template parameters corresponding to the given arguments.
No caching of template instantiations is performed yet; each time we form a reference to a template instantiation, we instantiate it afresh. We also don't implement the name lookup rule from #949 yet; lookups during template instantiation look only in the actual type and not in the constraint.
Depends on #2699
This is in preparation for template instantiation being triggered during substitution, and being able to fail.
Fix rule-of-three violation (missing assignment operator) in `Error` that got in the way of using it to hold an error temporarily in a failed transformation.
Per recent discussion, in `... where .A = B`, require that `B` is implicitly convertible to the type of `A` immediately, rather than treating that as part of the criteria that a type must satisfy to satisfy the resulting constraint. Extend the implementation of implicit conversion so that conversion of a type to a constraint checks that the type satisfies the constraint.
As part of implementing this, stop duplicating rewrite constraints as equality constraints. Instead, when checking that a constraint is satisfied, check both its equality constraints and its rewrite constraints. This fixes an infinite recursion that would otherwise be caused by this change, and is also a necessary prerequisite for applying rewrite constraints to equality constraints, where we would otherwise collapse the implied equality constraints to a tautological `V == V` constraint.
In passing, make ErrorBuilder support building the error message more incrementally and use that to improve diagnostics for mismatched values with equality constraints.
This allows us to combine multiple Errors together without repeating the prefix
information. Also fixes several cases where two "COMPILATION ERROR" prefixes
would be prepended to the same message when errors with prefixes and locations
were produced by the lexer and parser.
I'm doing this to avoid macro name conflicts, following https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Preprocessor_Macros: "If you do export a macro from a header, it must have a globally unique name. To achieve this, it must be named with a prefix consisting of your project's namespace name (but upper case)."
Commands run:
```
sed -i 's/\(DCHECK\|CHECK\|FATAL\|MAKE_UNIQUE_NAME\|MAKE_UNIQUE_NAME_IMPL\|RAW_EXITING_STREAM\|RETURN_IF_ERROR\|RETURN_IF_ERROR_IMPL\|ASSIGN_OR_RETURN\|ASSIGN_OR_RETURN_IMPL\|DIAGNOSTIC_KIND\|RETURN_IF_STACK_LIMITED\)(/CARBON_\1(/g' $(git ls-files *.cpp *.h *.lpp *.ypp *.def ':!third_party')
sed -i 's/#undef DIAGNOSTIC_KIND/#undef CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC_KIND/' toolchain/diagnostics/diagnostic_registry.def
```
Note this isn't *quite* everything, but it's intended to be a large pass at everything:
```
╚╡git grep '#define ' *.cpp *.h *.lpp *.ypp *.def ':!third_party' | grep -v '#define CARBON' | grep -v _H_
explorer/syntax/lexer.lpp: #define YY_USER_ACTION \

migrate_cpp/cpp_refactoring/var_decl.cpp:#define ABSTRACT_TYPE(Class, Base)
migrate_cpp/cpp_refactoring/var_decl.cpp:#define TYPE(Class, Base) \
```
We may in particular want to do a pass to clean up #ifdef guards and make them be CARBON_ rooted.
