fixes#24631
[Object
constructors](793baf34ff/compiler/semobjconstr.nim (L462)),
[casts](793baf34ff/compiler/semexprs.nim (L494))
and [type
conversions](793baf34ff/compiler/semexprs.nim (L419))
copy their type nodes verbatim instead of producing semchecked type
nodes. This causes a crash in transf when an untyped expression in the
type node has `nil` type. To deal with this, don't try to transform the
type node in these expressions at all. I couldn't reproduce the problem
with type conversion nodes though so those are unchanged in transf.

alternative to #24101
enabled in the context of the generic/template declarations capturing
the symbols, not the context of the instantiation of the
generics/templates. This was to be in line with where the compiler gives
the warnings and changes behavior in a potentially breaking way.
However `results` [depends on the old
behavior](71d404b314/results.nim (L1428)),
so that the callers of the macros provided by results always take
advantage of the opensym behavior. To accomodate this, we change the
behavior of the old experimental option that `results` uses,
`genericsOpenSym`, so that ignores the information of whether or not
symbols are intentionally opened and always gives the opensym behavior
as long as it's enabled at instantiation time. This should keep
`results` working as is. However this differs from the normal opensym
switch in that it doesn't generate `nnkOpenSym`.
Before it was just a generics-only version of `openSym` along with
`templateOpenSym` which was only for templates. So `templateOpenSym` is
removed along with this change, but no one appears to have used it.

fixes#24112
Sym nodes in templates that could be open are [given `nil`
type](22d2cf2175/compiler/semtempl.nim (L274))
when `--experimentalOpenSym` is disabled so that they can be semchecked
to give a warning since #24007. The first nodes of object constructors
(in this case) and in type conversions don't replace their first node
(the symbol) with a typechecked one, they only call `semTypeNode` on it
and leave it as is.
Effect tracking checks if the type of a sym node has a destructor to
check if the node type should be replaced with the sym type. But this
causes a segfault when the type of the node is nil. To fix this, we
always set the node type to the sym type if the node type is nil.
Alternatively `semObjConstr` and `semConv` could be changed to set the
type of their first node to the found type but I'm not sure if this
would break anything. They could call `semExprWithType` on the first
node but `semTypeNode` would still have to be called (maybe call it
before?). This isn't a problem if the sym node has a type but is just
nested in `nkOpenSym` or `nkOpenSymChoice` which have nil type instead
(i.e. with openSym enabled), so maybe this still is the "most general"
solution, I don't know.
(cherry picked from commit 680a13a142)
fixes#15314, fixes#24002
The OpenSym behavior first added to generics in #23091 now also applies
to templates, since templates can also capture symbols that are meant to
be replaced by local symbols if the context imports symbols with the
same name, as in the issue #24002. The experimental switch
`templateOpenSym` is added to enable this behavior for templates only,
and the experimental switch `openSym` is added to enable it for both
templates and generics, and the documentation now mainly mentions this
switch.
Additionally the logic for `nkOpenSymChoice` nodes that were previously
wrapped in `nkOpenSym` now apply to all `nkOpenSymChoice` nodes, and so
these nodes aren't wrapped in `nkOpenSym` anymore. This means
`nkOpenSym` can only have children of kind `nkSym` again, so it is more
in line with the structure of symchoice nodes. As for why they aren't
merged with `nkOpenSymChoice` nodes yet, we need some way to signal that
the node shouldn't become ambiguous if other options exist at
instantiation time, we already captured a symbol at the beginning and
another symbol can only replace it if it's closer in scope and
unambiguous.

fixes#23813, partially reverts #23392
Before #23392, if a `gensym` symbol was defined before a proc with the
same name in a template even with an `inject` annotation, the proc would
be `gensym`. After #23392 the proc was instead changed to be `inject` as
long as no `gensym` annotation was given. Now, to keep compatibility
with the old behavior, the behavior is changed back to infer the proc as
`gensym` when no `inject` annotation is given, however an explicit
`inject` annotation will still inject the proc. This is also documented
in the manual as the old behavior was undocumented and the new behavior
is slightly different.
(cherry picked from commit cd946084ab)
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.

fixes#22775
It's pre-existing that [`prepareOperand` doesn't typecheck expressions
which have
types](a4f3bf3742/compiler/sigmatch.nim (L2444)).
Templates can take typed subscript expressions, transform them into
calls to `[]`, and then have this `[]` not be resolved later if the
expression is nested inside of a call argument, which leaks an untyped
expression past semantic analysis. To prevent this, don't transform any
typed subscript expressions into calls to `[]` in templates. Ditto for
curly subscripts (with `{}`) and assignments to subscripts and curly
subscripts (with `[]=` and `{}=`).

* pragma for sfCallsite instead of name check at every template definition
Not documented because it seems to be for internal use?
Should also make it possible to make comparisons and setops imports, but this doesn't have to be done.
I can reuse a name like `cursor` for the pragma as well, added a new name just to be safe.
* make sfCallsite recursive, add tests
* silence error output from template_various.nim
* any => auto in tests
* avoid showing failed for parseSpec since this is expected behavior in 2 cases: tincludefile.nim, tnav1.nim
* enforce InheritFromException
* fixup
