In this case, the callee may be non-constant because it includes a
reference to `self`, so we need to be able to lower a non-constant
`specific_function`.
Generate declarations of specific functions on demand. Definitions are
not emitted yet, and I'm using a temporary, known-broken scheme for name
mangling.
This adds just the debug info metadata for Compilation Units (the top
level container of debug info) - but without anything in them, LLVM
won't emit them at all, so while this is testable at the IR level, it
isn't observable at the object level until more debug info is added.
A couple of starting points in this patch:
* A flag (`--debug-info`, seems to match the naming/style of other flags
in the carbon driver, though this is different from the naming
conventions of clang/gcc) that enables debug info when lowering. Open to
other names/approaches (on by default? historically debug info's been to
large/expensive to do this, so sticking with that precedent for now).
* Enabling that flag by default in the lowering tests - I do find the
churn on golden tests a bit rough, and adding more features to all the
tests means more churn, but it seems consistent with the approach so far
- keep an eye on this and perhaps revisit this if the churn gets too
annoying

This better follows the principle that types are simply constants of
type `type`, and allows more uniform treatment of types as just another
kind of constant from generics handling.
Use a hash table to map from `TypeId` to information about the complete
type. This makes basic operations on types a bit simpler, and operations
that actually need to access the complete class information a bit more
complex.
This has is a nice-to-have for me. Frequently I want to run a specific
test, and end up digging through output to be able to copy-paste the run
line. This uses TIP lines to inject the command into the file when using
AUTOUPDATE.
Note, one of the reasons I want this is because "bazel test
//toolchain/testing:file_test --test_output=all" has been regularly
exceeding bazel's output limit for me (workaround is either opening the
output file or specifying an obscure output limit flag), making it a
little harder for me to get the commands. However, frequently I'm adding
a file and want to iterate on it, so that's really the use case I have
in mind here.
Factor out `SemIR::InstNamer` and also use it when lowering to LLVM IR.
Automatically name all instructions created with our `IRBuilder` based
on the name computed by the `InstNamer`, and likewise name basic blocks
using the label generated by the `InstNamer`.
Move some of the existing naming logic out from lower into `InstNamer`
so that it's also used in SemIR. In particular, we now name call
instructions after their callee, or after the builtin name for calls to
builtins.
Computing and adding these names isn't completely free. This instruction
naming is designed to be optional, so that we can turn it off for builds
where the LLVM IR will only be converted to assembly and won't be seen
by a human, but so far it's enabled unconditionally. We can tune that
later as needed.
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.
