This was previously discussed at

I'm initiating this mainly because we typically use "id" suffixes to
indicate an `IdBase` being passed around and the non-id suffix of
`parse_node` suggests at it carrying more data than it actually does.
There used to be more reason for avoiding `node_id` because
`SemIR::InstId` used to be named `NodeId`, but that's no longer
necessary. As a consequence, I'd like to rename `parse_node` to more
precisely reflect its type.
In full, this is doing:
```
parse_node_kind -> node_kind
parse_node -> node_id
ParseNodeCategory -> NodeCategory
ParseNodeKind -> NodeKind
ParseNode -> NodeId
```
This is primarily in check and sem_ir, but with some `parse_node_kind`
references in parse too.
Pluralization is consistent with name forms on both sides, so that
wasn't part of my replacements.
This doesn't add full support. I'm separating it out to make the effects
of the modifier changes clearer for review. I'm restructuring a little
with the expectation that we'll have some more categories of modifier
keywords in the future (similar to `extern`, these may not be in a "set"
such as access), and thus easily scaling up to a few more would be
useful.
#3740 added another similar call. This may be temporary, maybe we'll
stop using and remove later, but it's a small simplification right now
and we might also retain a similar inst -> constant -> type flow.
Rather than just adding `Self` to the lexical scope, add it to the
class's name scope so that it is visible in later lexical scopes for the
same class -- in particular, for out-of-line definitions of members.
Also switch some tests in `check/testdata/class` over to making
idiomatic use of `Self` both inside a class and out-of-line, now that it
works more consistently.
Note that this does not permit using `Class.Self`, but only because we
don't yet support keyword names after `.` at all. If that changed, one
could use `Class.Self` to redundantly refer to `Class`. Whether we allow
that is left to a future decision.
Interface support is pretty skeletal so this may need additions later,
but I think it's still worthwhile to fill in the necessary bits now.
With this change, the expectation is then that everything we have right
now which _can_ be imported, is supported for import (at least for the
"current package, no overlap" case).
By adding a constant to ClassDecl/InterfaceDecl, we're able to remove
name reference special-casing. Use TryEvalInst on the Decl to generate
the Type. For ClassDecl, then use the generated constant for
self_type_id.
Note we may also want to do this with NameId, maybe some other things,
but the TypeId use is pretty broad and repetitive -- I thought I'd start
with it first.
Previously, we created scopes for implicit parameter lists and tuple
patterns, but that meant that bindings went out of scope too soon. We
now keep them in scope until the end of the enclosing declaration. This
is accomplished by pushing a scope for parameters when we handle a name
that might have them, and then popping the scope again if it turns out
that there were no parameters.
For a case such as:
```carbon
fn A(T:! type).B(U:! type).F(x: T, y: U) {
var z: T;
}
```
... we now have the following scopes in the stack:
- A parameter scope containing `T`.
- A class scope for `A(T:! type)`.
- A parameter scope containing `U`.
- A class scope for `A(T:! type).B(U:! type)`.
- A parameter scope containing `x: T` and `y: U`.
- A function body scope containing `z: T`.
The innermost scope when check processes a declaration of a function,
class, or similar is now often a parameter scope rather than the
enclosing scope in which the class or function is declared, so the
target scope is now passed explicitly into the modifier checking code
that wants to inspect that enclosing scope.
Building on #3636 which handles the general import case, add special
casing for namespaces. Namespaces can be combined cross-IR, so it's a
little more complex.
The implementation adds import_id to the Namespace instruction as a
reference to find the original using the normal structure. This is
achieved by moving the name_id to NameScope to free up space.
---
I considered a few alternatives...
I considered adding import_id to NameScope, but:
1. It's more consistent with things such as Function or Class that
provide name_id on the info object rather than the instruction.
2. I thought it more likely that there would be more NameScope cases
that might want a name_id rather than the import_id, since ImportRef
will typically be used.
I considered putting the import source (cross-ref IR id + inst id) on
the NameScope versus a separate ImportRef, which seems like the
strongest argument towards the NameScope approach because it removes an
instruction. That just felt inconsistent though, and the overhead of
instruction-per-imported-namespace should be low (theoretically few
namespaces should be used). Plus I feel a bit odd adding two
generally-unused ids to NameScope.
A specialized Namespace structure could also have been created to store
the import_id, but that would add an indirection to the NameScope.
Remove the type canonicalization mechanism and instead rely on constant
canonicalization to deduplicate types.
Rename the `Canonicalize*Type` functions to reflect that they're no
longer performing canonicalization. Switch code that creates types due
to semantic checking, rather than due to source syntax, to directly
create type constants through evaluation rather than creating an
instruction and evaluating it to produce a separate constant
representation.
The mapping from `const (const T)` that was previously performed by type
canonicalization is now implemented in expression evaluation instead.
The value `<error>` is now treated as a constant value, with a special
property that an instruction involving `<error>` that could possibly be
constant evaluates to `<error>`. This helps avoid producing follow-on
errors when an error occurs as a subexpression of an expression, such as
a type, that is intended to be constant.
This makes duplicate and previous definition handling match. While we
may want to make both point more fine-grained at the name, the necessary
logic seems likely to be equivalent.
Note, I'm looking at this mainly due to duplicate names in imports,
where it's especially helpful to take an instruction instead of a parse
node. We'll eventually want to handle parse nodes from other imports
better, and I think this is the way it would most likely work.
Rather than producing multiple constants with the same value, fold all
instances of a given constant to the same constant instruction.
A future PR will use this to replace the current type canonicalization
system.
Instructions created by splices during conversion are now evaluated, as
are instructions created in cases where we first create a placeholder
instruction and later replace it by a different instruction.
This also removes the ability to set a parse node and instruction
independently after creating an `InstId`, which could lead to them
accidentally not matching.
The parse nodes are still tracked as part of the same value store
interface in order to ensure parity, but they're split out from Inst
itself in order to reduce the size of Inst -- the expectation is that
they don't need to be passed around quite as much.
This change doesn't actually reduce the passing very much, although
there are hints of it: AddInstAndPush doesn't typically need a separate
parse node from the one on the Inst itself, for example. In a couple
spots I changed code to rely a little more on the InstId until the
ParseNode is needed, but it's very low hanging fruit where done. I think
convert could do more to not eagerly fetch the parse node before its
use, but more cleanup felt it would be easier to handle separately. I'm
currently viewing this as making such cleanup _possible_ rather than
executing on it up-front.
But also, I want to make sure there's a consensus to head in this
direction before pulling the trigger. We speculated that this would
result in the parse node being passed around less, and I do think that's
the case, although it's a bit fuzzy in the change.

Namespaces are copied, which means also adding their name to the
underlying instruction. It happened not to be done previously; the name
was only in name lookup.
Since the only import supported right now is the default import,
functionality is limited; in the future I'll need to deal with namespace
vs package conflicts.
Tests of namespace imports are under "namespace" -- I figured this would
be best for scaling as more instructions get support.
This also improves some debugging-related output that I was trying to
use while trying to build the support.

This change adds a `BindSymbolicName` instruction for generic bindings,
paralleling the existing `BindName`. A mechanism is also added to allow
both kinds of binding to be accessed uniformly, for convenience in the
case where the two different kinds of binding are treated the same.
Generic bindings of type `type` are allowed to be used as types,
although no operations are provided for such types. For now lowering
treats these types as empty structs, which seems like a reasonable
lowering for non-monomorphized unconstrained types.
This involves a number of supporting changes:
* The `parse_node;` member of instruction types may now have any type
derived from `Parse::NodeId` and is no longer required to have that
exact type.
* `Parse::Node::Invalid` is now a singleton object of a separate type
that is convertible to `Parse::NodeId` and its descendants. This
replaces the `Invalid` member of its descendants, and avoids having to
write long `NodeIdOneOf<...>` types when initializing variables to
invalid.
* `IndexBase` now allows `==` and `!=` comparisons between its derived
classes and types that are convertible to those types.
* A number of functions in the check stage have been changed to preserve
more type information instead of using `Parse::NodeId`.
* `NodeIdForKind<K>` (also known as `KId`) now has a `Kind` member so it
may be used to declare `NodeIdOneOf<T, U>` types without #including
`parse/typed_nodes.h`.
* `NodeIdForKind<K>` (also known as `KId`) may be implicitly converted
to `NodeIdOneOf<T, U>` if `T::Kind == K` or `U::Kind == K` (executing a
TODO).
Many of the `parse_node` members were not converted since they would
have required more extensive changes. They have been marked with "TODO"
comments.

Goal is to increase type safety, though more work needs to be done (see
added TODOs).
Note that, after this change, check handlers corresponding to deleted
parse node kinds will no longer compile.

By adding an InstId to the NameScope, we can determine whether the
declaration is being added to a scoped entity (versus a namespace).
The choice of InstId on NameScope is chosen versus other solutions
because, for imports, we want to just have a list of InstIds to import
and, from those, get the containing namespaces for addition. Similar may
also be desirable for printing fully qualified names given a singular
InstId. That means an InstId must have a path to find enclosing name
scopes.
What we're looking at here is:
- NameScopeId knows its InstId. (done here)
- Inst knows the enclosing NameScopeId. (future work)
- To walk up enclosing scopes for an Inst:
1. Fetch the Inst.
2. Find its enclosing NameScopeId (which will be per-declaration due to
Function etc complexity).
3. Fetch the NameScope if not Package scope. (if Package scope, done)
4. Use the InstId on the NameScope to go back to step 1.
This builds out a little infrastructure for one name scope to `extend`
another. We'll need more refinement here to cover other cases, but this
should provide some foundation for that future work.

Since we switched to using the scope stack instead of the decl state
stack to hold information about the containing definition in #3460 , we
can now pop the decl state at the end of the declaration instead of the
end of the body of the definition.
Most of the calls to `StringifyType` already passed `true` for
`in_type_context`. Checking the rest, I found that every one of them was
already sufficiently clear that they were printing a type, or could be
made so with a very small change to the diagnostic text.
These are manual fixes; mostly from clang-tidy, some from clangd (which
notes unused includes).
In typed_insts, adding inlline due to misc-definitions-in-headers. Per
discussion, clang-tidy is wrong, but inline silences it.
For parameter name skew in definition versus declaration, I'm just using
the name from the definition.

This gets to a lifetime subtlety, particularly with things like the
sorting diagnostic consumer that delay output. In order to reduce the
chance of accidental references, disallow StringRef in the diagnostics.
For example:
```
./toolchain/diagnostics/diagnostic_emitter.h:162:5: error: static_assert failed due to requirement '!std::is_same_v<llvm::StringRef, llvm::StringRef>' "Use std::string or llvm::StringLiteral for diagnostic lifetimes."

./toolchain/diagnostics/diagnostic_emitter.h:47:7: note: expanded from macro 'CARBON_DIAGNOSTIC'

For now, we require the same introducer to be used each time a class is
declared, but see #3384.

Add a `NameId` that is effectively just a wrapper around a `StringId`,
with
some additional predefined values for names that don't correspond to
strings, such as the name of `self` or the function's return slot.
When declaring a name such as `fn Ns.Class.F() { ... }`, enter the
scopes of `Ns` and `Ns.Class` as we form the name, and remain in those
non-lexical scopes until the end of the declaration.
When performing an unqualified lookup, look in any enclosing non-lexical
scopes in addition to looking into the lexical name table.
We now track a scope index with each lookup result in the lexical name
lookup table. This is used to determine whether a lexical or non-lexcial
result is the innermost result and whether a declared name is in the
same scope as some previous introduction of that name or in a nested
scope. For now, this could just be the index into the scope_stack, but
the intent is to also use this to detect names being declared after they
are first looked up, which requires the indexes to outlive their scopes,
so we use a persistent numbering of all scopes instead. The persistent
numbering also permits more invariant checking.
Following up on discussion yesterday regarding this split.
Note, I'm expecting #3341 to do IdentifierId -> NameId in SemIR. It
might be worth adding NameId creation directly to StringStore if you're
content with this setup though.
Track the fields in a class, and generate a corresponding struct type as
the object representation for the class. For now, we always use a
pointer as the value representation for a class.
This replaces the use of `VarStorage` in this case.
Add an `UnboundFieldType` type as the type of a field, in cases where
it's referenced without an accompanying object.
Add a `BindName` node to describe the name binding performed for both
variables and fields so that we can handle them more uniformly.
1. In general, `semantics_ir` -> `sem_ir`, to match the directory name.
2. For the list of `ValueStore`-related accessors on `SemIR::File`, add
them to `check`'s `Context` object, shortening access.
