fixes#24998
Basically it retraces back to the situation before
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18366 and
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18362, i.e.
```nim
import fuzz/a
import fuzz/a
```
```nim
import fuzz/a
from buzz/a
```
```nim
import fuzz/a except nil
from fuzz/a import addInt
```
All of these cases are now flagged as invalid and triggers a
redefinition error, i.e., each module name importing is treated as
consistent as the symbol definition
kinda annoying for importing/exporting with `when conditions` though
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/18762https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/20907
```nim
from std/strutils import toLower
when not defined(js):
from std/strutils import toUpper
```
Theoretical Benefits / Plans:
- Typed assembler-like language.
- Allows for a CPS transformation.
- Can replace the existing C backend by a new C backend.
- Can replace the VM.
- Can do more effective "not nil" checking and static array bounds
checking.
- Can be used instead of the DFA.
- Easily translatable to LLVM.
- Reasonably easy to produce native code from.
- Tiny memory consumption. No pointers, no cry.
**In very early stages of development.**
Todo:
- [x] Map Nim types to IR types.
- [ ] Map Nim AST to IR instructions:
- [x] Map bitsets to bitops.
- [ ] Implement string cases.
- [ ] Implement range and index checks.
- [x] Implement `default(T)` builtin.
- [x] Implement multi string concat.
- [ ] Write some analysis passes.
- [ ] Write a backend.
- [x] Integrate into the compilation pipeline.
* fix =#13790 ptr char (+friends) should not implicitly convert to cstring
* Apply suggestions from code review
* first round; compiles on windows
* nimPreviewSlimSystem
* conversion is unsafe, cast needed
* fixes more tests
* fixes asyncnet
* another try another error
* last one
* true
* one more
* why bugs didn't show at once
* add `nimPreviewCstringConversion` switch
* typo
* fixes ptr to cstring warnings[backport]
* add fixes

* implement case for cstring
for now just converts to string on C backend
* custom implementation for cstring
* remove leftover
* revert even more
* add nil + fix packages weird variant literal bug
* update docs
* improvements to $(SomeInteger) and addInt
* remove mIntToStr, mInt64ToStr
* improvements
* fix tests/pragmas/tinjectstmt.nim; the diff is harmless, cgen code is identical with -d:danger or debug mode
* rm tests/system/tstrmantle.nim
* revert compiler/jsgen.nim for -d:nimVersion140
* compiler/vmhooks: add getVar to allow vmops with var params
* addFloat vmops with var param
* cgen now renders float32 literals in c backend using roundtrip float to string
* I don't care about observable stores
* enforce explicit initializations
* cleaner code for the stdlib
* stdlib: use explicit initializations
* make tests green
* algorithm.nim: set result explicitly
* remove out parameters and bring the PR into a mergable state
* updated the changelog
* code cleanups and feature additions
* added basic test and koch/CI integration
* make it build on Unix
* DrNim: now buildable on Unix, only takes 10 minutes, enjoy
* added basic documentation for DrNim which can also be seen as the RFC we're following
* drnim: change the build setup so that drnim.exe ends up in bin/
* makes simple floating point ranges work
* added basic float range check
* drnim: teach Z3 about Nim's range types plus code refactoring
* drnim: make unsigned numbers work
* added and fixed index checking under setLen
* first implementation of .ensures, .invariant and .assume (.requires still missing and so is proc type compatibility checking
* drnim: .requires checking implemented
* drnim: implemented .ensures properly
* more impressive test involving min()
* drnim: check for proc type compatibility and base method compatibility wrt .requires and .ensures
* testament: support for 'pattern <directory>
* koch: uses new <directory> feature of testament
* drnim: added tiny musings about 'old'
* Make testament work with old SSL versions
* koch: add support for 'koch drnim -d:release'
* drnim: preparations for the param.old notation
* right shift is now by default sign preserving
* fix hashString and semfold
* enable arithmetic shift right globally for CI
* fix typo
* remove xxx
* use oldShiftRight as flag
* apply feedback
* add changelog entry
