Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins e68e54dae4 Issue a diagnostic if we try to parse a source file that is too large. (#4429)
Previously in an optimized build we'd produce bogus tokens, such as
tokens with incorrect IdentifierIds, and in a debug build we would try
to CHECK-fail -- but actually wouldn't, because we're incorrectly
checking for `2 << bits` instead of `1 << bits`. I hit this while I was
trying to do some profiling and was seeing some very strange
diagnostics.

The diagnostic is pointed at the first token that is beyond the limit to
help people determine where to split their files.

Jon Ross-Perkins c25177658a Add more compile benchmark stats (#4408)
I was discussing some details of cross-compiler lex performance. Since
we were talking about LoC initially, and lex performance especially will
differ based on bytes and tokens being lexed, throwing in some stats for
how we're processing those. Here's some example output:

```

Jon Ross-Perkins 9fefef162f Add tests to catch untested diagnostics. (#4426)
Use the diagnostic kind printing in #4425 to catch when we have
diagnostics with no tests.

This merges a couple other use-cases of filegroup manifests into a
common rule.

Note I do add a few tests for things, and also some things are
_actually_ unit tested (just not in the file_test structure). But I
stopped when I realized that dealing with merge conflicts is going to be
a pain. I might end up reverting test changes (as part of merge conflict
resolution) and doing narrow test additions in a separate PR, after both
this and #4425 are merged.

Jon Ross-Perkins 249709cb49 Split out clang-tidy to not run in merge (#4428)
Because clang-tidy is slow (and I'm not sure we can make it really
fast), trying to run it slightly less. Also, I noticed we can shave a
few minutes by disabling apt removal without losing too much free space.

Note that since this removes the old clang-tidy, I'll need to change the
branch protections before merging.

- Generate runtime indices as part of pattern matching, rather than as a
separate postprocessing/rewriting step.
- In contexts where runtime parameters aren't permitted, avoid emitting
insts for them to begin with, rather than trying to detect the problem
and rewrite the IR to remove them later on.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandGeoff Romer 302aa1bb30 Remove uses of StringLiteral in format strings. (#4416)
Building on #4411, avoid using StringLiteral in format strings. This
includes a diagnostic check to prevent regressions (which is also how I
gathered issues).

Note, I haven't looked at `std::string` uses yet, but we might need
things like that to be able to pass strings in code back to the user.
StringLiteral though means that it's literally written down in the
toolchain, at which point it should probably be written in the format
string instead of separately.

Richard Smith 684cda3d53 Don't deduce values for explicitly-specified generic bindings. (#4415)
Distinguish between deduction against a symbolic binding pattern and
deduction against a symbolic binding name. In the former case, the value
is being explicitly specified and must be constant. In the latter case
we encountered a use of the binding name as a subexpression, and should
deduce against it if it's not explicitly specified.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandRichard Smith b5a837aa89 Refactor modifier formatting to remove string passing. (#4418)
I'm taking the approach of making DiagnosticBase an API so that we can
pass similar diagnostics as parameters. An alternative would be to do
the function_ref approach we've done elsewhere, but these felt more
boilerplate to me.

Note I'm also modifying messages here. Let me know if you'd like
different changes and/or just keeping current formatting (keeping
current formatting would also allow removing some of the templating I've
added, but it felt helpful putting explicit tokens where possible). But
also, things like "`protected` not allowed on `interface` declaration at
file scope" were part of the phrasing issue, I think.

Jon Ross-Perkins 2a36ff611d Remove a couple std::string uses in diagnostics. (#4421)
We can't completely remove std::string from diagnostics because it's
probably better to provide a string than something like a
StringLiteralValueId or NameId (because those may be opaque for someone
trying to present the diagnostic). So this change is just playing
whackamole on another couple things that could easily use the new format
providers.

Jon Ross-Perkins 7c22348461 Add s plural format to IntAsSelect (#4423)
Per discussion on #toolchain, add "s" as a special-case for the common
plural format.

Note this removes periods from a few diagnostics; the periods shouldn't
be there per message style. Also, while I'm ignoring llvm::StringLiteral
uses, those should be addressed as #4416 -- this'll probably conflict
and make me clean up one or the other.

David BlaikieandRichard Smith dfed743de2 Add vtable pointers to class layout (#4407)
A small step to virtual functions - adding vtable pointers to the
layout, but not initializing or otherwise using them at this stage.

A few open design questions I'd love feedback on:

* Is this the right/good enough SemIR representation for now? This patch
adds a `is_dynamic` attribute to `SemIR::Class` and populates/flags it
based on the flag of the base class, or if any virtual function is
declared in the class (or, at least that's my intent). Some other
options include:
* Each `Class` could store a `ClassId` (or `TypeId`?) of the (possibly
indirect, possibly self) base class that is the first one that is
dynamic/has a vtable pointer
* Could make the property narrower, like `has vtable pointer` and have
it `true` only on the type that introduces the vtable - then derived
classes would have to walk their base classes to check if they're the
one that needs to define the vtable pointer or not
* Should the vtable be the first element in the type? If there's a
non-dynamic base type, we could have a layout that's `{<non-dynamic base
type>, vtable ptr, <derived members>}`? Derived types would still be
able to uniquely identify where their vtable pointer is just fine... -
and the vtable pointer is, in a sense, a member of that intermediate
type, so it does seem a bit strange to force it to the front - but I
guess it's probably more efficient in some ways?

Open to any other suggestions/advice/thoughts on the direction, etc.

Also propagate the pattern IR along with the pattern-match IR, and use

Strictly speaking, some parts of the pattern-match IR are allocated
eagerly, while traversing the pattern's parse tree, but they still
aren't actually emitted until we traverse the associated pattern insts.

With a 30-ish frame stack trace and `-c dbg`, my installed
`llvm-symbolizer` still seems slow (~6s), but the hermetic
`llvm-symbolizer` adds ~4s (i.e., ~10s total). I don't think we can

just use @bazel_tools//tools/cpp:malloc

Jon Ross-Perkins df55b89e08 Implement some token-based formatting structure. (#4386)
Here I'm trying to add some simple formatting based on the token kind,
aiming mainly to keep the implementation short for now.

This approach won't generalize to arbitrary structures (e.g., it doesn't
discern between braces for a function body and a struct literal). I
think we'll probably want to build a parse tree and associate parse
kinds with tokens in order to format, additionally doing something less
linear. But my essential goal at present is to just get a
proof-of-concept that the basics can yield something that looks okay.

Jon Ross-PerkinsandChandler Carruth 0db96ebc52 Stitch together adjacent comments using the indent. (#4397)
This is improving the comment production to produce fewer distinct
comments.

At present, comment processing uses strict prefix matching. It either
expects `// ` (with a space) for valid comments, or just `//` (without a
space) for invalid comments that lacked the space.

As a consequence, the following would be three comments:

```
// Comment 1
//
//
// Comment 4
```

This is because a 3-character prefix is used for valid comments. The
prefix switches between lines 1 and 2, and again between lines 3 and 4,
each resulting in a separate comment.

For contrast, this is one comment because only a 2-character prefix is
used:

```
//Comment 1
//
//
//Comment 4
```

That's because all lines lack a suffix space.

Additionally, with SIMD 16-byte boundaries, further splits can occur if
processing needs to transition to non-SIMD.

Here, I'm trying to just address all of this by:

1. Stitching together adjacent comments. Since a lexed comment starts at
the `//` excluding the indent, the delta from the prior comment must be
precisely the indent.
2. Adding support for switching from SIMD to non-SIMD on file
boundaries.

I considered trying to have a separate `//\n` prefix for SIMD processing
of `// `, but I wasn't sure about the tradeoff of doing both at the same
time (in particular, it'd require constructing a string for the
different prefix), thus this stitch approach. This does mean multiple
passes will be required for a typical long comment structure using blank
comment lines to separate paragraphs (for performance reasons, I will
recommend engineers not write comm... nevermind).

Richard Smith 1a1bfd2eb2 Track and resolve the specific callee in a call to a generic function (#4395)
Add a new `specific_function` instruction that represents a generic
function plus its deduced argument list as a callee in a function call.
The new instruction can only appear as the immediate operand of a call
instruction, so we give it a builtin placeholder type.

At the end of each file, require definitions for all specific functions
used in that file. Resolve the generic with the argument list to produce
those specific function definitions as needed, and diagnose if the
generic doesn't have a definition available.

A few tests are updated in cases where they declared and used generic
functions but didn't previously provide a function definition.

Jon Ross-Perkins 0f350255ce Refactor compile-related tests to share construction. (#4396)
Note in particular that this fixes an issue where SharedValueStore had
been shared across files, when they should be per-file. This is only
visible when doing multiple compilations in a single test, which was
rare before.

This also moves these tests into the Testing namespace. My memory of the
various namespacing changes is that we'd generally agreed to have tests
in Testing so that we'd see SemIR:: and similar, same as we would in a
lot of the implementation.

David Blaikie b1014bf9f5 Disallow abstract or base on class declarations (that are not definitions) (#4378)
Per:
[p3762](https://docs.carbon-lang.dev/proposals/p3762.html#modifier-keywords:~:text=Other%20class%2C%20impl%2C%20and%20interface%20modifiers%20%28abstract%2C%20base%2C%20final%29%20exist%20only%20on%20the%20definition%2C%20not%20on%20the%20forward%20declaration):
"Other class, impl, and interface modifiers (`abstract`, `base`,
`final`) exist only on the definition, not on the forward declaration."

Jon Ross-Perkins 1338f9e0ad Add tracking of lexed comments, with skeletal formatting. (#4385)
In order to format comments, it's helpful if they're tracked. This
tracks them separately from tokens in order to avoid interfering with
parse; it'd be inconvenient if comment tokens could show up in arbitrary
locations, albeit possible to support.

This additionally extracts out the TokenIterator support into a template
in order to generally have it available for IndexBase types. I'm only
adding it for CommentInfo, not sure if we'll want it elsewhere, but this
structure still felt like a good fit.

Richard Smith efb5d6d25a Assign locations to instructions in a generic eval block. (#4393)
The locations point to the first instruction in the generic that needed
the relevant constant value or type.

For now, this must makes the formatted SemIR a bit more useful, but in
the future it will also provide locations for diagnostics caused by
monomorphization failure.

Jon Ross-Perkins e9a6b9dfcc Add AUTOUPDATE-SPLIT to help with format tests. (#4384)
Since formatting covers comments, and the CHECK lines are in comments,
it can create recursive behaviors. This introduces AUTOUPDATE-SPLIT as a
way of formally designating a split to exclusively be used for
autoupdate output.

Jon Ross-Perkins 434173b016 Add skeletal format subcommand. (#4383)
This extracts out the SourceBuffer handling of `-` in order to trivially
share it.

Note this still has a number of TODOs, it's just setting up the
essential subcommand infrastructure, with some tests demonstrating that
it at least does something.

Chandler Carruth 33954d1f20 Improve -c dbg, enabling Split DWARF and other enhancements (#4382)
This should substantially reduce the total build size of `-c dbg`
builds, and especially improve cache hits during incremental
development. I'm seeing over 50% reduction total on Linux in just the
raw size of a complete debug build. Even on macOS where we can't use
split DWARF there are substantial reductions.

Note that LLDB and GDB want slightly different flags to have the best
experience with split debug information, and so the build and
documentation have been updated to enable LLDB's flags by default but
provide clear instructions for switching to GDB's flags, and they are
structured so that this can be done persistently for an individual
developer.

Richard SmithandJon Ross-Perkins 6410d6e140 Add support for deduction of most kinds of type constant. (#4389)
This adds deduction in all the cases where we can match the instruction
fields of the parameter against the corresponding instruction fields of
the argument. This handles all current type constants except for struct
types, for which we would want to match by field name.

Richard Smith 9fadfb5e82 Basic support for argument deduction in generic impls. (#4380)
Refactor the current function call deduction logic to make it reusable.
Call into it from `impl` deduction. Also build a generic region for the
definition portion of a generic `impl` and substitute into it before
accessing the witness in a specific `impl`.

This is enough to get simple uses of generic `impl`s to work. The main
blocker for more complex cases is that we have very little support for
non-trivial deduction, so while we can deduce `forall [T:! type] T as
I`, we can't deduce `forall [T:! type] C as I(T)` yet.

Richard Smithandjosh11b b274622228 Improve infrastructure for formatting types in diagnostics. (#4374)
Instead of stringifying types in the caller in some cases, add new types
to represent:

- `InstIdAsType`: an `InstId` diagnostic argument that represents a type
expression that should be included in the diagnostic
- `InstIdAsTypeOfExpr`: an `InstId` diagnostic argument that represents
an expression whose type should be included in the diagnostic

For these cases, we can produce more user-friendly descriptions of a
type than we can with a canonicalized `TypeId`. Add comments to
discourage using `TypeId` diagnostic arguments when one of the above can
be used, and move over existing uses where it's straightforward to do
so.

Move type stringification code to its own files and out of `SemIR::File`
to make `File` smaller and to further discourage the direct use of the
stringification logic.

Also update type printing to include the `` ` `` delimiters surrounding
the type. The intent is that we will eventually want to include other
information when formatting a type, like Clang does when printing a
typedef (`'string' (aka 'std::basic_string<char>')`), and such
formatting requires that the diagnostic machinery produces the `` ` ``s
itself.

There are a couple of cases where we really want to format valid Carbon
type syntax directly into a diagnostic, rather than an `aka` or similar,
because the diagnostic text includes part of the type itself, for
example: ``"consider using `partial {0}`"``. For such cases, a `Raw`
form of the diagnostic argument types is added: `TypeIdAsRawType` and
`InstIdAsRawType`. In principle we could instead use ``"consider using
`partial {0:raw}`"``, but our diagnostic machinery isn't set up for
that.
