Richard Smith e06eb8f532 Create a placement operator new directly. (#6941)
Instead of injecting code to declare an `operator new`, generate AST for
it directly. In order to use this, directly generate a `CXXNewExpr`
rather than asking Clang to build one.

This is less of a hack, and doesn't visibly leak an `operator new`
declaration that inline C++ code or template instantiations might see.
It also avoids generating a warning in C++26 and later that the
`constexpr` declaration of `operator new` is used but not defined.

Richard Smith 0a4fd2cb7e Fix thunk generation for &&-qualified methods. (#6881)
Use the object parameter type when creating a reference to the thunk
parameter so that we create an xvalue rather than an lvalue for the
`*this` expression in the thunk.

Geoff RomerandRichard Smith e5b05a1fac ExprCategory for guaranteed-in-place initializing expressions (#6623)
The primary change in this PR is to split the `Initializing` expression
category into separate `ReprInitializing` and `InPlaceInitializing`
categories, depending on whether initialization uses the types
initializing representation, or is guaranteed to be in place. It also
rationalizes and documents the SemIR-level semantics of those categories
(including where #5545's "ephemeral entire reference" category will
fit), and introduces two new inst kinds to close gaps exposed in the
process.

Some additional secondary changes:
- Consistently format the storage arguments of initializers with `to`,
regardless of whether initialization is in-place, and document the `to`
notation.
- Rename some inst kinds and functions, and restructure some of the
code, for clarity and consistency with the new documentation.
- Resolve a TODO to handle more category conversions in
`CategoryConverter`, in order to make it easier to reason about category
conversions.

See #6588 and the review history of this PR for background.

Richard Smith e69c3fd978 Support list initialization of C++ classes that is performed via a constructor call. (#6660)
The general strategy here is to import the constructor with a signature
that directly matches the argument. The intent is that the imported
function will eventually be usable directly as the `ImplicitAs.Convert`
function in a generated `impl`.

For initialization from a tuple, for example `(1, 2)`, we import the
selected constructor with a signature that takes a tuple pattern:

  `fn Class.Class((a: i32, b: i32)) -> Class;`

In order to support that, this PR also adds support in general for tuple
patterns in function signatures. It turns out the implementation was
already very close to allowing this.

Richard Smith 6114df59ee Factor out a Check::CppContext holding C++-specific check state (#6482)
* Move `Sema` access from `CppFile` into `CppContext`.
* Move the mangle context from `SemIR::File` into `CppContext`.
* Move source location mapping state from `Context` into `CppContext`.

Also factor out the `GenerateAst` function that builds the `CppContext`
and `CppFile` into its own file.

Geoff Romer bf45b1cbf5 Refactor function return type representation (#6463)
This separates the return type from the return pattern, and replaces the
return pattern with a block of return patterns. This is a step toward
support for `ref` returns (where there's no corresponding return
pattern) and compund-form returns (where there may be multiple return
patterns).

Richard Smith 6011040481 Rework handling of C++ references. (#6268)
For now, map C++ reference types to const-qualified Carbon pointer types
rather than picking between a (non-const) pointer or a value type. This
fixes misbehavior in lowering for reference members in classes and
reference return types.

Update the special-case handling for references as function parameters
so that it continues to map const reference parameters to Carbon
pass-by-value, and unify the code paths for `self` parameters and other
parameters, which were mostly doing the same thing but had some subtle
differences.

Add references to the list of types that we can pass to and from C++
directly, without needing an additional layer of thunks.

Richard Smith a1a35c207e Unify "needs thunk" logic. (#6277)
Remove duplication between determining whether a parameter needs custom
thunk mapping and whether a function needs a thunk. Now a function needs
a thunk if any parameter or the return type does.

This fixes some inconsistencies; previously:
- We would not require a thunk when passing an `unsigned int`, but if we
  had a thunk we'd pass `unsigned int` indirectly.
- We would always require a thunk for an enum parameter, even though
  we'd actually pass it directly if its underlying type is a 32- or
  64-bit integer.
- We would require a thunk for a nullable pointer, even though
  we arrange for all pointer types to have the same ABI in Carbon and
  C++, including nullable pointers / Optional(T*).

This also causes us to use a thunk for rvalue reference return types,
which we used to miscompile.

Depends on #6276.

Richard SmithandDavid Blaikie f022e91e45 Create a Call instruction directly when building a thunk call. (#6276)
Don't go through the `PerformCall` machinery a second recursive time --
this is redundant, creates additional unnecessary temporaries, and is in
theory wrong because `PerformCall` takes a syntactic argument list (one
argument per callee parameter pattern), but we have a call argument list
(one argument per callee parameter).

Boaz Brickner bfc4d2b127 C++ interop: Add return reference types support (#6178)
This is a follow up of #6082, which added support for reference types,
but not for return types.

C++ Interop Demo:

```carbon
// main.carbon

library "Main";

import Core library "io";

import Cpp inline '''
struct C {
  auto Inc() -> void { ++x; }
  int x = 0;
};
auto GetC() -> C& {
  static C c;
  return c;
}
''';

fn Run() -> i32 {
  Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
  Cpp.GetC()->Inc();
  Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
  Cpp.GetC()->Inc();
  Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
  return 0;
}
```

```shell
$ bazel build toolchain:carbon && bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon compile main.carbon && bazel-bin/toolchain/carbon link main.o --output=demo && ./demo
0
1
2
```

**Without this change**:
```shell
main.carbon:19:14: error: semantics TODO: `Unsupported: return type: C &`
  Core.Print(Cpp.GetC()->x);
             ^~~~~~~~~~
```

Boaz Brickner 57c0fde145 Fix C++ thunk triggering for functions with default args which return a simple type (#6152)
Before this change, we wrongly ignore the decision to generate a thunk
for a function with default args by overriding this decision with the
fact the return type by itself doesn't require a thunk.
This causes not generating a thunk which leads to crashing in lowering.
Add tests that show that now thunk is generated in `check` and it no
longer crashes in `lower`.

Follow up of #6108.

Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins 1e7b7e53ae C++ interop: support for default arguments. (#6108)
The general strategy here is to force use of a thunk when we want to use
default arguments, and have Clang generate uses of the default arguments
on its side of the thunk.

To support this, change the key type used in `clang_decls` from being
just a `Decl*` to being a pair of `Decl*` and number of parameters in
the case of function decls. Import distinct `SemIR::Function`s for each
number of parameters that's used, and corresponding distinct thunks.
