This adds the `static` token to the lexer and parses it as a modifier.
In check, `FullPatternStack::Kind::FieldDecl` is now used for both
static and non-static vars. Static vars get treated basically the same
as `NameBindingDecl`s.
Global initialization is used for static var initializers. To make the
necessary stack information available to `pattern_match.cpp`, the
`full_pattern_stack` and `decl_introducer_state_stack` are now popped
later in `handle_let_and_var.cpp`.
In lowering, each class's body is checked for `VarStorage` insts and
lowered the same as global vars.
For now, hide `override fn`s from name lookup, so that the base class
version is always used, as the derived-class version does not have its
own vptr entry and so would not do the right thing if a further-derived
class adds a new override. This is implemented via a new access kind of
`Hidden`.
When checking the overriding function, pass in the expected `Self` type
and check the `self` parameter against that; the signature that we
generate for the thunk in the derived class is the base class signature
with the `self` parameter's type changed to the derived class.
When we generate a thunk for a virtual function, the thunk is assigned a
`virtual_index`, and the virtual function itself is not. When the thunk
makes a direct call to the virtual function, recognize this situation by
checking for a `virtual_index`, and perform a non-virtual call if there
isn't one.

Add support for compile-time functions. `eval fn` is analogous to C++
`constexpr`, and is evaluated at compile time when it has compile-time
arguments. `musteval fn` is analogous to C++ `consteval`, and requires
that its arguments be available at compile time and is always evaluated
at compile time. For now we require the modifier to match across
redeclarations of the function. The specific modifier syntax here is a
placeholder and not yet part of an approved design.
Limitations: Only very basic support for evaluation is provided. So far
there's no support for mutable state or `if` expressions, but otherwise
control flow and passing and returning values should work. Carbon
evaluation recursion is modeled by C++ recursion for now, so you can
overflow the toolchain stack easily. Functions that use in-place
initialization will generally not work yet, as they are modeled as
passing a non-compile-time-constant reference to a temporary to the
call.
Add missing categorization of `name_binding_decl` as `NotExpr` to match
other similar declaration instructions like `FunctionDecl`, so that we
can uniformly skip over them when they occur within function bodies.

This fixes various violations of C++'s One Definition Rule, where we
accidentally gave the same static data member multiple definitions in
different translation units. Clang happens to emit such definitions with
weak linkage, which allows us to get away with this without link errors,
but it's still formally incorrect.
Also switch keyword order around for a handful of instances of
`constexpr inline`, per agreement in open discussion.
This happens to reduce the size of a `-c dbg` toolchain binary by 7.2
MiB, presumably by making more of our symbols and especially debug info
discardable.
This proposal renames the syntax used to mark an overriding definition
of a virtual method from `impl fn` to `override fn` to avoid ambiguity:
besides indicating an overriding virtual function, it can be parsed as
an "impl" declaration when the construct following "impl" begins with a
lambda introduced by "fn".

This is a bit of an experiment to see if there's a reasonable way to
write a shared enum type, rather than writing per-case wrappers for
things like `HasTypeQualifiers` or the printing. I think it's a bit
borderline complexity right now, but I'm not sure I can reduce it much
further.
This changes from things like `Internal::EnumClassName##RawEnum` to
`Internal::EnumClassName##Data::RawEnum` so that the enum entries can
have back references to bit shifts without needing to know the
containing type name. Because I'm trying to reduce duplication between
mask and non-mask enums, I did this to non-mask enums too.
This was motivated by #6035 adding another enum mask (which will grow
more entries, and is intended to switch if this is accepted), but I'm
not using that PR as a base here because I didn't want the merge
dependency.
Echoing what was added in #5608, updating existing uses. Unfortunately
there's divergent behavior for operators versus constructors, so keeping
the nolint on those.
In a class, an `impl as` can now be both `final` and `extend` instead of
only one or the other.
In https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/issues/5319 we decided
this is already allowed by the design but was an oversight in the
implementation.
Add a full entity representation for associated constants, and build a
`Generic` object for them. This `Generic` is parameterized by the
enclosing `Self` type, allowing the use of `Self` within the type of the
associated constant to be supported.
When performing impl lookup for an associated constant, produce the type
with the provided self type substituted for its `Self` along with any
generic parameters of the interface.
Split the handling of associated constant declarations into two parts,
corresponding to the code before the `=`, and the code between the `=`
and `;` (if any). The former goes into the generic declaration region;
the latter into the generic definition region. This prepares us to
handle the default value for an associated constant, but for now we're
just storing the information and not actually using it.
Remove the entity type field from `assoc_entity_type`, because it's
almost unused and is an attractive nuisance -- it must necessarily be a
type in the generic scope of the associated constant rather than in the
scope of the instruction (because there is no `Self` anywhere else),
which means that it's hard to substitute into or derive meaning from.
See `toolchain/check/testdata/impl/assoc_const_self.carbon` for tests of
the new functionality; these used to cause the toolchain to crash.
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.
Mirroring #4003 for NodeCategory.
Note we template a lot more on NodeCategory's enum, so this is a
slightly more awkward delta.
Also, switch from Enum in KeywordModifierSet to RawEnumType for
consistency with EnumBase. The templating on NodeCategory had me
thinking about that more.
This is primarily to avoid the use of `!!` in code, trying not to create
too much code as a result (obviously still a net increase). Also
refactoring to its own file to make the enum easier to find.
Note, NodeCategory does similar, I might propose similar there if
everyone's good with the API. However, that's just two, so creating
something like enum_base felt like too much.
