Chandler Carruth d0badecd2a Switch tests to use the rendered form of diagnostics (#8070)
Historically, we disabled the rendered form in tests outside of
`toolchain/diagnostics`. The idea was to keep tests shorter and avoid
very long chains of autoupdate before stabilizing due to all the line
numbers and other artifacts in the rendered form.

This PR adds `--diagnostic-line-numbers=[all|first]` and defaults to
`first` in tests. This keeps the rendered form so that we can easily
code review that form and the visual cues it does or doesn't provide.
But it removes all but the first location's line numbers to provide
significantly more stability in tests.

By default, tests get the full unicode line-drawing form of diagnostics
so we can ensure all of the artifacts there make sense with the specific
case being diagnosed, but we do retain some focused ASCII-rendering
tests to ensure that fallback remains usable.

There are some issues here that will be fixed in subsequent PRs.
Notably, we try to keep the frame together in the check lines, and so
force some parts to use the first location. This largely works, but
fails in some edge cases, causing the entire frame to be located
incorrectly. There is a TODO about this that we need to fix, and it only
occurs 6 times across the test suite, so it didn't seem worth
front-loading a fix for here.

Dana Jansens 9fb428d713 Ensure specific in ImplWitness has resolved definition before accessing witness table (#8040)
When impl lookup results in an `ImplWitness`, either directly or later
through `LookupImplWitness` evaluating to an `ImplWitness` inside some
specific, it represents a dependency on the eval blocks of the
`ImplDecl` that the `ImplWitness` comes from. The `ImplWitness` contains
a `SpecificId` of the `ImplDecl`, and the constants in the witness table
must be viewed through that `SpecificId`. The constants may depend on
the declaration or the definition block of the `ImplDecl`'s specific, so
any use of the witness table from `ImplWitness` requires the specific
from the `ImplWitness` to be fully resolved: both the decl and
definition blocks.

The specific declaration block is always resolved immediately when
forming a specific id, so there's nothing to do there. And things are
simple when the `ImplWitness` returned from impl lookup is concrete. We
would simply resolve the specific definition directly in the evaluation
of `LookupImplWitness`.

But when the `ImplWitness` is symbolic, meaning there's a dependency on
generic parameters in its referenced specific, then we have a dependency
on resolving the specific definition in the `ImplWitness` for every
specific that gets applied to the `ImplWitness`, eventually resulting in
a concrete specific.

Previously we attempted to do this by representing a dependency edge
from the eval block containing the `ImplWitness` instruction to the
definition block of the specific inside the `ImplWitness`. We
represented this dependency edge with the `RequireSpecificDefinition`
instruction.

The challenge with the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction was
ensuring it always landed in the _same eval block_ as the one holding
the symbolic `ImplWitness`. Ultimately, we've found a way to do this
without the `RequireSpecificDefinition`. The witness table is accessed
through `ImplWitnessAccess`, so we resolve the specific definition
before each access to the witness table. If the definition is already
resolved, this just costs a lookup of the Specific from the value store.

We document the other things we tried, which don't work or were too
complex, below.

In PR #6236, we added the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction in the
eval of `LookupImplWitness`, but this is too late. If impl lookup
resolved to a symbolic `LookupImplWitness`, the `LookupImplWitness` is
added some eval block. Later, we form specifics and re-evaluate that
eval block, and the `LookupImplWitness` can evaluate to an
`ImplWitness`. Adding the `RequireSpecificDefinition` instruction at
this point inserts the instruction into whatever generic's eval block
happens to be on the top of the generic stack, not the eval block of the
generic we are building a specific for. And indeed we can't add
instructions to a generic's eval block later like this, as it would be
missing from specifics that were already resolved for the generic. This
incorrect insertion shows up as a crash in eval at the CHECK introduced
but commented out in [eval.cpp in
#7981](https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/blob/56d9bbc40add1e9263f2f9b2555c3a27292d1725/toolchain/check/eval.cpp#L3507-L3512).
This is covered by the
`require_specific_impl_definition_through_specific_instantiation.carbon`
test.

We tried moving the insertion of `RequireSpecificDefinition` to be
earlier - at the point where the `LookupImplWitness` is constructed, in
the `LookupImplWitness()` function, instead of inside evaluation. This
seemed like a straightforwardly correct answer, as the eval block that
contains the `LookupImplWitness` will then also contain the
`RequireSpecificDefinition`. However, this can cause us to lose the
`RequireSpecificDefinition` entirely. Because it's a separate
instruction, not an operand of `LookupImplWitness`, it does not get
treated as a dependency of the witness. When we do an impl lookup inside
an `alias`, we build a generic for the alias and then discard it. This
discards the eval block containing the `LookupImplWitness`. Then, in an
enclosing generic, we refer to the constructed `AliasDecl` instruction,
which pulls all its dependent operands into the enclosing eval block.
This pulls in the `LookupImplWitness` into the enclosing eval block, but
it does not preserve the `RequireSpecificDefinition`. This is covered by
the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_lookup_impl_witness_in_class_definition.carbon`
test.

We tried having `ImplWitness` evaluation resolve the specific definition
of the specific `ImplDecl` it refers to. This seems like the simplest
approach by far as we should always be working with the correct eval
block and nothing can get lost. However it does not work because of the
recursive nature of `ImplWitness`. The `ImplWitness` instruction appears
in the declaration of an `ImplDecl`, and the `ImplWitness` holds a
`SpecificId` for that same `ImplDecl`. When building a specific
`ImplDecl`, we evaluate the `ImplWitness` in the `ImplDecl`'s
declaration block which then immediately resolves the specific
definition before the declaration is finished. This leads to missing
instructions in the specific definition. In short, this puts the
dependency edge to the `ImplDecl`'s specific inside the `ImplDecl`
itself, which is problematic.

We tried wrapping `ImplWitness` in another instruction,
`ImplWitnessUse`. Inside the `ImplDecl` declaration there is still
`ImplWitness`, but then in the definition there is `ImplWitnessUse` and
that is what is returned from the evaluation of `LookupImplWitness`. The
`ImplWitnessUse` is an `ImplWitness` plus it ensures the specific
referred to by the witness has its definition resolved. However this
breaks constant comparisons, as we get different witnesses inside an
impl versus outside.

The first iteration of this PR's solution had us insert the
`RequireSpecificDefinition` into the eval block when we sniffed a
`LookupImplWitness` instruction, however that missed cases where impl
lookup immediately resolved to a symbolic `ImplWitness`, which is why we
now sniff for the `ImplWitness` in the eval block. This is covered by
the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_symbolic_impl_in_class_definition.carbon`
test.

We also originally made a mistake of not inserting
`RequireSpecificDefinition` when inside the impl definition that the
`ImplWitness` refers to. But we can form specifics ImplWitness values
through function signatures, and these must add the dependency edge on
that specific ImplDecl definition. This is covered by the
`require_specific_impl_definition_from_inside_impl_definition.carbon`
test.

Finally, we did have a working solution. It was to sniff instructions
added to the eval block of a generic, and when an `ImplWitness` is added
to the eval block (it is implied that it is symbolic), also add a
`RequireSpecificDefinition` to that eval block immediately. We also
resolved the definition of a specific referred to by `ImplWitness` when
`LookupImplWitness` evaluates to `ImplWitness` to cover the concrete
witness case. This complicated the construction of the eval block
immensely, however. It caused a situation where adding one inst to the
eval block actually adds two, which we needed to avoid when importing.
And it required inst-kind specific behaviour in the very general
construction of an eval block, completely outside of eval itself.

Christopher Di Bella 05a7ecbd34 Move SubobjectDestroy and SelfDestruct out of interface Destroy (#7942)
Determining that a type has trivial destruction requires checking
whether all of its subobjects have trivial destruction and whether its
type has a custom witness for `Destroy.Op`. This isn't possible when
`Destroy` is the custodian for `Destroy.Op` and `SubobjectDestroy.Op`,
so we need to make `SubobjectDestroy` its own interface.

`Destroy.SelfDestruct` becomes a standalone function because it depends
on `SubobjectDestroy` and `Destroy` being implemented, and is also
responsible for generating any custom witnesses for both interfaces.
Making `SelfDestruct` an interface was experimented with, but this
required a blanket impl that caused issues for facet types.

`Destroy` depends on `SubobjectDestroy` to be implemented. We'd ideally
use `require impls SubobjectDestroy`, but it isn't complete yet, and it
also causes problems when `Destroy` is implemented inside the class
definition. We work around this by temporarily renaming the `Destroy`
interface to `DestroyImpl`, and introducing a constraint called
`Destroy` so that user code doesn't need to write `Core.SubobjectDestroy
& Core.Destroy`.

Chandler Carruth 2c9739799b Render diagnostics through the terminal library (#7683)
Diagnostic rendering was part of the data model: `Loc::FormatLocation`
and
`Loc::FormatSnippet` wrote plain text to a stream, so no capability,
color, or
terminal width could reach them.

A diagnostic is now one message with labels, contexts, and location
information
attached, and `Diagnostics::Renderer` draws it into a
`Terminal::Buffer`. The
design is in `toolchain/docs/diagnostics_rendering.md` (#7668),
authoring in
`toolchain/docs/diagnostics.md`.

Before:

```
example.carbon:6:3: error: 1 argument passed to function expecting 0 arguments
  Run0(1);
  ^~~~~~~
example.carbon:3:1: note: calling function declared here
fn Run0() {}
^~~~~~~~~~~
```

After:

```
error: 1 argument passed to function expecting 0 arguments
       ╭─┤ example.carbon:6:3
       ┆
     3 │ fn Run0() {}
       · ─────┬─────
       ·      ╰──┤ calling function declared here
       ┆
->   6 │   Run0(1);
       ·   ───────
       ╰────────────
```

`--no-diagnostic-snippets` gives a compact form, `example.carbon:6:3-9`.
File
tests use it; the rendering tests under `toolchain/diagnostics/testdata`
ask for
snippets.

C++ interop diagnostics are data now rather than text Clang drew:
`SemIR::ClangSourceLocId` names a `clang::SourceRange`, and a Clang
location is
marked as the point it names.

`StreamConsumer` moves to a `:renderer` target that `:emitter` does not
depend
on, keeping `common/terminal` out of `consumer.h`. Capabilities come
from the
file behind the error stream, so tests get plain ASCII.

`renderer_fuzzer` draws diagnostics built from fuzzer bytes with every
capability combination, since a shape the renderer doesn't expect must
never be
why the compiler dies while reporting a problem.

TODOs mark the follow-ups: line weights and crossing lines, wrapping
that keeps
a quoted type whole, and ordering diagnostics that share a byte offset.

Also: `IncorrectExtension`'s hint moves into its message, since its note
had no
location of its own, and `strip_noise` in `check_diagnostics.py` blanks
multi-line `#define`s instead of deleting them.

Dana Jansens 24766e213e Defer evaluation of witnesses substituted while identifying a facet type (#7930)
When identifying a facet type, defer evaluation of LookupImplWitnesses
by redirecting them to evaluate into IdentifiedWitness. Then the caller
of identify will need to substitute the IdentifiedWitnesses, either with
witnesses of their own, or with LookupImplWitness to cause a lookup
operation.

This allows:
- An `impl as` on a named constraint can subst the witnesses in
designators from the named constraint with a witness to the impl itself.
This prevents them from looking for and finding some other overlapping
impl. (This PR)
- Impl lookup to collect rewrite/equality requirements from all named
constraints and then use the impls it has already found to evaluate any
designators in those requirements instead of performing impl lookup
again (creating a cycle). (Done in
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7944)
- Similarly, an `impl as` can collect impls and equality requirements
from all named constraints and verify them correctly by replacing
witnesses that should refer to the impl with the correct witness instead
of performing a lookup and finding an overlapping impl. (Done in
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7937)
- ImplWitnessAccess to be able to find rewrites from a named constraint,
not just from the initial DeclaredFacetType. (TBD)

To do this we need to introduce the concept of "identified" specifics.
In order to identify a facet type, we must construct a specific for each
require decl in a named constraint. These specifics will have
IdentifiedWitnesses inside them, but their args would otherwise match a
specific for the require decl constructed in another context. To avoid
polluting the canonical specific namespace, we introduce a second
namespace of specifics that are "identified" since they are created by
identifying.

As we have introduced a new global state that modifies eval behaviour,
we must disable that state when resolving a specific (as per
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/7923). But inside an
"identified" specific, we preserve the behaviour so that the witnesses
modified by identify (through SubstPeriodSelf or through evaluating a
require specific) have their evaluation deferred.

Christopher Di Bella f7cd39428e Add Destroy.SubobjectDestroy as a temporary replacement for Destroy.Op (#7773)
This change partially implements [PR #7362], which revises how objects
are destroyed. It is a partial implementation for two reasons:

1. This change moves `Destroy.Op`'s current behaviour into
`Destroy.SubobjectDestroy`, but it doesn't add support for objects with
non-trivial destruction.
2. `Destroy.SubobjectDestroy` is a workaround for `require impls
SubobjectDestroy`. We aren't able to use the latter until the dependents
add their requirements' implementations to their own witness tables.

Dana Jansens fcae9610bd Make SemIR::TypeType be an empty FacetType instruction (#7813)
The type `type` is now a `FacetType` inst with no constraints. This
brings the model implemented in the toolchain into better alignment with
the language design. The `SemIR::TypeType` struct remains as a scope for
holding the `TypeInstId`, `ConstantId`, and `TypeId` constants, but is
not an `InstKind` anymore.

The `TypeType` inst looks a lot like singletons, but there are many
`FacetType` insts so it doesn't quite fit that model. So we put it
alongside singletons with a fixed inst id but refer to it as a more
general "builtin" inst that is not a singleton.
`Namespace::PackageInstId` is similar, and we group it with `TypeType`
conceptually as another builtin instruction with a fixed id.

No conversion is needed anymore to use a `type` as a facet, since types
also have a `FacetType` type. This simplifies and removes a number of
helpers and branches throughout the code.

The `TypeType` inst is now part of the constant store, so we end up
printing it in the constants block in every test. But it's also named
`type` rather than `%type` to preserve the majority of existing
formatting behaviour, though this does look different from other
constants.

Assisted-by: Opus 5 was used to generate a first draft and validate the
refactoring. Though nearly everything non-trivial the tool wrote has
been modified or rewritten.

Dana Jansens 4416f3525b Canonicalize generated functions for Core witnesses (#7729)
Use a single `SemIR::Function` per `Core` interface method, whether it's
generated locally or imported. This prevents generating duplicate
functions, which lead to different types when the witness appears in a
`FacetValue` as part of a specific for a class.

We use a `CanonicalValueStore` of `GeneratedFunction` objects that allow
finding an existing FunctionId for a `Generated` special function before
(re-)generating it. Mangling for `Generated` functions is also moved to
use the values from the `GeneratedFunction`'s canonicalization key, so
that we have a consistent source of truth for the unique ID of a
`Generated` function across all files.

New tests are in
`toolchain/check/testdata/impl/custom_witness/destroy.carbon`.

Christopher Di BellaandRichard Smith 4ea5ef45dd Skip ImplWitnessTable::elements_id when generating fingerprints (#7629)
Implementing interface modifiers causes an infinite loop when generating
fingerprints because the witness value generates a fingerprint that's
dependent on something dependent on the witness value. We've debugged
this to the witness table's `elements_id` field.

This hack is a workaround for creating a new block type whose value is
not codependent with its identity.

Richard Smith 7d89ac98c7 Add a flag to build a single ASTContext shared across all compilations (#7567)
Instead of building one Clang `ASTContext` per compilation, the
`--share-cpp-ast` flag causes us to build a single `ASTContext` and
share it across all contexts. One new abstraction is added: `CppDomain`
represents the Carbon-side view of a Clang AST that might be shared
across multiple `SemIR::File`s. This object owns the Clang instance and
the AST.

For now, we have no isolation between the C++ state exposed to different
Carbon compilations, and we have no multiplexing of generated LLVM IR
from C++ into different Carbon compilations, so the mode is not usable
yet. The plan is to keep it behind a flag until it's ready.

Geoff RomerandRichard Smith e023f75254 Implement thunking in terms of constant evaluation (#7332)
The bulk of this change is changing most pattern insts to be `Always`
rather than `AlwaysUnique` constants, so that they can be wrapped in
`SpecificConstant`s to perform substitution. That then lets thunking
rely much more on `SpecificConstant` wrappers instead of deep-copying
the inst tree with modified types.

This approach to thunking should scale better, particularly as things
like form generics make function signatures more complex, because we can
leverage the existing support for constant evaluation and substitution.
Unfortunately, applying this approach to binding patterns will require
more work; see the TODO near the top of `thunk.cpp` for details.

Richard Smith cefa0397bb More fixes to package and library fingerprinting. (#7297)
Fix import logic to make all imported packages be children of the
`NameScopeId::Package` scope. Previously, indirectly-imported packages
would end up as children of their importing package's scope, which
resulted in them not being treated as packages at all, and in particular
not being fingerprinted as packages.

Fixing that caused a failure in the fingerprinting logic as we started
to encounter packages with no correspoding import scopes. Instead of
looking for import scopes, use a simpler mechanism to map packages to
their package names, and clean up.

Unfortunately the latter change churns all the fingerprints again :(
Hopefully this is the last time for a while.

Fixes link failures when referencing a symbol involving a fingerprint

Previously we included the `Namespace`'s `import_id` as part of its
fingerprint, which caused local and imported namespaces to get different
fingerprints. We now store the `import_id` on the `NameScope` instead of
on the `Namespace` inst to avoid this problem.

Also, when we reach a package-level `NameScopeId`, consistently
fingerprint it as a (package name, library name) pair. Previously the
fingerprinting depended on whether it was imported or not, as an
imported `NameScopeId` had a parent scope (the current package). We need
to include the library name here so that private entities with the same
name in different libraries have different fingerprints.
