* Improve nimeval, changes some defaults
This improves nimeval to make it easier to use NimScript as an embedded
scripting languages. It does change some of the defaults, so in case
anything used the old version and depended on the old behaviour these
would have to be changed.
* Remove dependency on nimhcr for nimscript
* do not track 'raise Defect' in the .raises: [] clause anymore
* --panics:on maps 'raise Defect' to an unrecoverable fatal error
* make tests green again
* update the documentation too
* `nim doc --backend:js|cpp...`
`nim doc --doccmd:'-d:foo --threads:on'`
`nim r --backend:cpp...` (implies --run --usenimcache)
* --usenimcache works with all targets
* --docCmd:skip now skips compiling snippets; 50X speedup for doc/manual.rst
* added bit operations based on bit slices, clarified documentation, made non-mutating versions of mask ops
* Added since annotations, some runnable examples
* Added mask()/masked() functions, changed internal workings of mask ops to use new bit* funcs
* Changelog updated for new bitops improvements
* Reorganization, added runnable examples
* Documentation adjustments
* Add incltrl for since annotation
* Fix masked() impl
* Fix mask() return type
* Don't call toUnsigned on already unsigned types
* Remove improper `var T` for flipMasked()
* Fix return types for flipMasked()
* Slight syntactic cleanup for *masked ops
* Added tests for bitslice operations, new mask() operation, non-mutating mask ops
* Fix setmasked() var T issue
* More comprehensive tests
* Fix runnable example for bitsliced()
* Fix runnable example for mask()
* Add posix_memalign()
* Add linux-specific open() flags
O_TMPFILE: since Linux 3.11
O_PATH: since Linux 2.6.39
O_NOATIME: since Linux 2.6.8
O_DIRECT: since Linux 2.4.10
* Fix Stat type
* Fix POSIX AF_INET* const generation
* added high level sendTo and recvFrom to std/asyncnet; tests were also added.
* add .since annotation, a changelog entry and fixed to standard library style guide.
* fixes net.recvFrom to work correctly with IPv6
* raise if domain is not AF_INET or AF_INET6
* renamed template to adaptRecvFromToDomain()
* added high level sendTo and recvFrom to std/asyncnet; tests were also added.
* add .since annotation, a changelog entry and fixed to standard library style guide.
* Improved asserts msgs and added notes for use with UDP sockets
* pointers removed in parameters and fixes
* added .since annotation
* minor fixes
* many bugfixes for js

mostly fixes the fact that it was allowed to assign to newly created temp variables. additionally attempts to get rid of null initialized seqs/strings (though they might pop up here and there); this simplifies a lot of things and makes code size smaller. even if null seqs/strings pop up here and there it's still better than all those bugs existing.
* formatting fixes
* CI fixes
* more CI fixes
* Error -> Defect for defects
The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective,
context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an
exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when
looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding
definition and digging through layers of inheritance.
With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible
to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set
a good example here.
