Add validation that every code block in a function is terminated by a sequence of terminating instructions, and that terminators don't appear anywhere else in code blocks.
This required tracking whether we're in a reachable code block. That's done on the fly when we create a new code block; the new `SemanticsNodeBlockId::Unreachable` is used to represent the case where we're not actually creating a code block because we're in unreachable code.
Add semantic analysis and semantics IR building for `if` expressions, and add the first parts of control flow handling to semantics IR. After discussion with @chandlerc, use [block arguments](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_single-assignment_form#Block_arguments) to convey values from the two arms of the `if` to the result. For now, only a single block argument is supported, but we should revisit this as we explore more of the requirements of the Semantics IR form.
Functions can now contain multiple code blocks, so grab the entry block up-front instead of assuming the entry block will be at the top of the block stack when we reach the end of function emission.
Add trivial support for `bool` type literal, because without it we can't write testcases.
This shifts logic so that bindings are added to name lookup only after the scope is complete, removing logic around adding/removing/re-adding names in certain scopes.
This does mean that things like a function's forward declaration will need to go through an extra hoop for name conflict checks, because under this approach a function definition does conflict checking when it adds names for the body's use. But, that seems easy to address, and better than the current hoops.
This switches types to using SemanticsTypeId instead of SemanticsNodeId, and lowering pre-builds its list of types. The empty tuple type is special-cased because we don't want to emit it unless it's in-use, but as the implicit return for functions, it's frequently used. Callables use invalid to indicate the implicit return, and that seems undesirable to change due to the size increase.
This is the first step to refactoring types into a SemanticsTypeId. This only tracks what's in-use, but as a consequence starts funneling type information through in ways similar to how I'd want it to do SemanticsTypeId.
Previously, IR for arguments in calls and struct values was separated out. This merges it back in. Additionally, parameters for functions and struct types had their own IR; the block is still there, but there's a TODO to decide what to do with it.
In the LLVM IR, this has the consequence of emitting expressions that are inputs to a call or struct value within the scope of the function, which is pretty much where it should be. Importantly it happens before the call is encountered.
This change also tinkers with the int and real literal lowering. I'm pretty sure both are still wrong, but was having trouble figuring out a "better" way to do it, and this seems like it'll work for now.
This builds on #2814 by adding the test framework to the toolchain. On Linux, this is 7s -> 4s for me. #2811 has more detailed timing for the explorer, which also had more dramatic changes because it's about 3x more tests run in 2x as many ways (6x total).

These changes should make output more stable when builtins are added to semantics. By omitting them from nodes and printing nodes as "relative to the last builtin", I should be able to add and remove builtins without automatically affecting every test. Also by printing builtin nodes as `nodeNameOfBuiltin`, it's a little easier to understand what's going on (for me, at least).
This is starting to build out actual lowering logic, for a really simple `fn Main() -> i32 { return 0; }`
Notes for achieving this:
- In semantics, currently function names are bound separate from the signature. When emitting IR, this turns out to be inconvenient because we want to know the name when we process the declaration and the definition. This change addresses that by merging the name into the FunctionDeclaration node, which is also accessible from the definition. It removes the separate BindName. This should be the cause of all the test changes in semantics, because the IR generated changes.
- Add a "Lowering" class which I'm using to hold the llvm builder state. This class now has minimal support for the SemanticsIR generated by the above example.
- In the "Lowering", values from expressions are stored in a DenseMap. I'll keep thinking about whether there's a cleaner way to achieve this, and I'd call it a temporary solution for now. However, this is how the `0` in `return 0` gets properly associated across SemanticsIR instructions, and it'll frequently be an issue in less trivial cases.
This adds tracking of call information plus basic type checking. It adds a builtin for the empty tuple, mainly so that I have the basis for a default function return type.
As an aside, it also unifies printing within SemanticsIR, fixing a missing comma after callables.
