Instead of including the raw index of the specific, which is unstable
across files and across unrelated changes, use a fingerprint of the
constant values of the specific arguments. This is a placeholder until
we decide on how we want to mangle specific functions.
Add a builtin `"int.convert"` supporting unchecked conversions between
different integer types. This performs a truncation, zero-extension, or
sign-extension, depending on the widths of the operands and the
signedness of the source type. Add explicit `As` support to the prelude.
No implicit conversions are supported yet as we don't have a way to
express the constraint that we can only implicitly convert to wider
types.
Instead of providing operations only for `i32`, provide them for all
`iN` and `uN` types.
For now, this excludes the `*Assign`, `Inc` and `Dec` interfaces,
because the implementations for those are defined as Carbon functions
rather than builtins, and we can't yet lower definitions for specific
functions, so converting those to be generic breaks the build for our
examples.
Non-entry-block allocas will allocate new stack memory each time they're
reached, resulting in leaking stack memory over time for allocas in a
loop. Move all such allocas to the entry block instead, and use an LLVM
intrinsic to mark when the lifetime of the variable actually begins.
Instead of treating `Core.Int` as the toolchain's builtin `IntType`,
model it as a class that adapts the builtin type. This aligns us better
with the intended language model, gives an associated library for
`impl`s involving `Core.Int` to live within, and opens the door adding
member functions to `Core.Int` if we decide that is desirable.
Remarkably it also seems to make the formatted SemIR a little smaller,
because a call to a generic class generates less IR than a call to a
function.
Goal is to reduce churn in names in test updates (by churning a lot of
them in this PR).

For the few remaining uses of the builtin `i32` type, manually build an
`IntType(Signed, 32)` value instead. These are:
- The return type of `Run`.
- The type that int literals in an `if` expression are converted into.
- The type of an array index expression.
We should consider converting those three cases away from `i32` over
time.

When an `IntLiteral` appears as an operand of an `if` expression,
convert it to `i32` for now, so that we don't reject things like `if
cond then 1 else 2` due to having a non-constant value of type
`IntLiteral`.
For tuple indexing expressions such as `(a, b).0`, convert the index to
type `IntLiteral`, not to type `i32`. This isn't strictly necessary to
do in this PR, but avoids the need to provide an `IntLiteral` -> `i32`
implicit conversion for `no_prelude` tests using this syntax.
Generate declarations of specific functions on demand. Definitions are
not emitted yet, and I'm using a temporary, known-broken scheme for name
mangling.
