fixes#25617
This pull request introduces a stricter check for parameter type
relations in the `procParamTypeRel` procedure. Specifically, it ensures
that two types are not only structurally equal but also have the same
backend type, taking type aliases into account.
Type relation checks:
*
[`compiler/sigmatch.nim`](diffhunk://#diff-251afcd01d239369019495096c187998dd6695b6457528953237a7e4a10f7138R787-R789):
In `procParamTypeRel`, added a check to ensure that if two types are
considered equal (`isEqual`), they must also have the same backend type
(using `sameBackendTypePickyAliases`). If not, the result is set to
`isNone`, preventing false positives when type aliases differ.
fixes#23200, fixes#18866#21065 made it so `auto` proc return types remained as `tyAnything` and
not turned to `tyUntyped`. This had the side effect that anything
previously bound to `tyAnything` in the proc type match was then bound
to the proc return type, which is wrong since we don't know the proc
return type even if we know the expected parameter types (`tyUntyped`
also [does not care about its previous bindings in
`typeRel`](ab4278d217/compiler/sigmatch.nim (L1059-L1061))
maybe for this reason).
Now we mark `tyAnything` return types for routines as `tfRetType` [as
done for other meta return
types](18b5fb256d/compiler/semtypes.nim (L1451)),
and ignore bindings to `tyAnything` + `tfRetType` types in `semtypinst`.
On top of this, we reset the type relation in `paramTypesMatch` only
after creating the instantiation (instead of trusting
`isInferred`/`isInferredConvertible` before creating the instantiation),
using the same mechanism that `isBothMetaConvertible` uses.
This fixes the issues as well as making the disabled t15386_2 test
introduced in #21065 work. As seen in the changes for the other tests,
the error messages give an obscure `proc (a: GenericParam): auto` now,
but it does give the correct error that the overload doesn't match
instead of matching the overload pre-emptively and expecting a specific
return type.
tsugar had to be changed due to #16906, which is the problem where
`void` is not inferred in the case where `result` was never touched.
This is in reference to a [feature
request](https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/22142) that I posted.
I'm making this PR to demonstrate the suggested change and expect that
this should be scrutinized

* deprecate unsafeAddr; extend addr
addr is now available for all addressable locations, unsafeAddr is deprecated and become an alias for addr
* follow @Vindaar's advice
* change the signature of addr
* unsafeAddr => addr (stdlib)
* Update changelog.md
* unsafeAddr => addr (tests)
* Revert "unsafeAddr => addr (stdlib)"
This reverts commit ab83c99c50.
