Because of the bug in `tools/parse_unicodedata.nim`, CJK Ideographs were
not considered letters in `isAlpha()`, even though they have category
Lo. This is because they are specified as range in `UnicodeData.txt`,
not as separate characters:
```
4E00;<CJK Ideograph, First>;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
9FEF;<CJK Ideograph, Last>;Lo;0;L;;;;;N;;;;;
```
The parser was not prepared to parse such ranges and thus omitted almost
all CJK Ideographs from consideration.
To fix this, we need to consider ranges from `UnicodeData.txt` in
`tools/parse_unicodedata.nim`.

```nim
type
TestObj = object of RootObj
TestTestObj = object of RootObj
testo: TestObj
proc `=destroy`(x: TestTestObj) =
echo "Destructor for TestTestObj"
proc testCaseT() =
echo "\nTest Case T"
let tt1 {.used.} = TestTestObj(testo: TestObj())
```
When generating const object fields, it's likely that
we need to generate type infos for the object, which may be an object
with
custom hooks. We need to generate potential consts in the hooks first.
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/20433 changed the semantics of
initialization. It should evaluate`BracedInit` first.

When importing a module and declaring an overloadable symbol with the
same name as the module in the same scope, the module symbol can take
over and make the declared overload impossible to access. Previously
enum overloading had a quirk that bypassed this in a context where a
specific enum type was expected but this was removed in #23588. Now this
is bypassed in every place where a specific type is expected since
module symbols don't have a type and so wouldn't be compatible anyway.
But the issue still exists in places where no type is expected like `let
x = modulename`. I don't see a way of fixing this without nerfing module
symbols to the point where they're not accessible by default, which
might break some macro code.

In #20091 a bad kind of type inference was mistakenly left in where if
an identifier `abc` had an expected type of an enum type `Enum`, and
`Enum` had a member called `abc`, the identifier would change to be that
enum member. This causes bugs where a local symbol can have the same
name as an enum member but have a different value. I had assumed this
behavior was removed since but it wasn't, and CI seems to pass having it
removed.
A separate PR needs to be made for the 2.0 branch because these lines
were moved around during a refactoring in #23123 which is not in 2.0.
This adds a version of `almostEqual` (which was already available for
floats) thata works with `Complex[SomeFloat]`.
Proof that this is needed is that the first thing that the complex.nim
runnable examples block did before this commit was define (an
incomplete) `almostEqual` function that worked with complex values.

In #23091 `semFinishOperands` was changed to not be called for `mArrGet`
and `mArrPut`, presumably in preparation for #23188 (not sure why it was
needed in #23091, maybe they got mixed together), since the compiler
handles these later and needs the first argument to not be completely
"typed" since brackets can serve as explicit generic instantiations in
which case the first argument would have to be an unresolved generic
proc (not accepted by `finishOperand`).
In this PR we just make it so `mArrGet` and `mArrPut` specifically skip
calling `finishOperand` on the first argument. This way the generic
arguments in the explicit instantiation get typed, but not the
unresolved generic proc.
`reset`, `wasMoved` and `move` doesn't support primitive types, which
generate `null` for these types. It is now produce `x = default(...)` in
the backend. Ideally it should be done by ast2ir in the future

`void` is only supported as fields of objects/tuples. It shouldn't allow
void in the array.
I didn't merge it with taField because that flag is also used for
tyLent, which is allowed in the fields of other types.
fixes#23321
In the function `mapType`, ptrs (tyPtr, tyVar, tyLent, tyRef)
are mapped into ctPtrToArray, the dereference of which is skipped
in the `genref`. We need to skip these ptrs in the function
`genOpenArraySlice`.
When forward declaration is used with pragmas `virtual` or `member`, the
declaration in struct is added twice. It happens because of missing
check for `sfWasForwarded` pragma.
Current compiler generates the following C++ code:
```cpp
struct tyObject_Foo__fFO9b6HU7kRnKB9aJA1RApKw {
N_LIB_PRIVATE N_NOCONV(void, abc)(NI x_p1);
N_LIB_PRIVATE N_NOCONV(virtual void, def)(NI y_p1);
N_LIB_PRIVATE N_NOCONV(void, abc)(NI x_p1);
N_LIB_PRIVATE N_NOCONV(virtual void, def)(NI y_p1);
};
```

Since `nkState` is only for the main loop state labels and `nkGotoState`
is used only for dispatching the `:state` (since
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/7770), it's feasible to rewrite the
loop body into a single case-based dispatcher, which enables support for
JS, VM backend. `nkState` Node is replaced by a label and Node pair and
`nkGotoState` is only used for intermediary processing. Backends only
need to implement `nkBreakState` and `closureIterSetupExc` to support
closure iterators.

<del> I also observed some performance boost for C backend in the
release mode (not in the danger mode though, I suppose the old
implementation is optimized into computed goto in the danger mode)

In the
8990626ca9
the effect of `skipAddr` changed to skip `nkAddr` and `nkHiddenAddr`.
Some old code was not adapted. In the
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/23477, the magic `addr` function
was handled in the semantic analysis phase, which causes it be skipped
incorrectly
fixes#23326
In a routine declaration node in a template, if the routine is marked as
`gensym`, the compiler adds it as a new symbol to a preliminary scope of
the template. If it's not marked as gensym, then it searches the
preliminary scope of the template for the name of the routine, then when
it matches a template parameter or a gensym identifier, the compiler
replaces the name node with a symbol node of the found symbol.
This makes sense for the template parameter since it has to be replaced
later, but not really for the gensym identifier, as it doesn't allow us
to inject a routine with the same name as an identifier previously
declared as gensym (the problem in #23326 is when this is in another
`when` branch).
However this is the only channel to reuse a gensym symbol in a
declaration, so maybe removing it has side effects. For example if we
have:
```nim
proc foo(x: int) {.gensym.} = discard
proc foo(x: float) {.gensym.} = discard
```
it will not behave the same as
```nim
proc foo(x: int) {.gensym.} = discard
proc foo(x: float) = discard
```
behaved previously, which maybe allowed overloading over the gensym'd
symbols.
A note to the "undeclared identifier" error message has also been added
for a potential error code that implicitly depended on the old behavior
might give, namely ``undeclared identifier: 'abc`gensym123'``, which
happens when in a template an identifier is first declared gensym in
code that doesn't compile, then as a routine which injects by default,
then the identifier is used.

Ideally it should be handled in the IR part in the future
I have also checked the double evaluation of `swap` in the JS runtime
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/16779, that might be solved by a
copy flag or something. Well, it should be best solved in the IR so that
it doesn't bother backends anymore.
