`semIndirectOp` is used here because of the callback expressions, in
this case `db.getProc(...)`, and `semIndirectOp` calls `semOpAux` to
type its arguments before overloading starts. Hence it can opt in to
symchoices since overloading will resolve them.

refs #22605
Sym choice nodes are now only allowed to pass through semchecking if
contexts ask for them to (with `efAllowSymChoice`). Otherwise they are
resolved or treated as ambiguous. The contexts that can receive
symchoices in this PR are:
* Call operands and addresses and emulations of such, which will subject
them to overload resolution which will resolve them or fail.
* Type conversion operands only for routine symchoices for type
disambiguation syntax (like `(proc (x: int): int)(foo)`), which will
resolve them or fail.
* Proc parameter default values both at the declaration and during
generic instantiation, which undergo type narrowing and so will resolve
them or fail.
This means unless these contexts mess up sym choice nodes should never
leave the semchecking stage. This serves as a blueprint for future
improvements to intermediate symbol resolution.
Some tangential changes are also in this PR:
1. The `AmbiguousEnum` hint is removed, it was always disabled by
default and since #22606 it only started getting emitted after the
symchoice was soundly resolved.
2. Proc setter syntax (`a.b = c` becoming `` `b=`(a, c) ``) used to
fully type check the RHS before passing the transformed call node to
proc overloading. Now it just passes the original node directly so proc
overloading can deal with its typechecking.

Lets single threaded applications benefit from tracking foreign cells as
well.
After this, `SmallChunk` technically doesn't need to act as a linked
list anymore I think, gotta investigate that more though.
The likelihood of overflowing `chunk.free` also rises, so to work around
that it might make sense to check `foreignCells` instead of adjusting
free space or replace free with a counter for the local capacity.
For Nim compile I can observe a ~10mb reduction, and smaller ones for
other projects.

There was a small leak in the above issue even after fixing the
segfault. The sizes of `free` and `acc` were changed to 32bit because
adding the `foreignCells` field will drastically increase the memory
usage for programs that hold onto memory for a long time if they stay as
64bit.

I have made `realloc` absorb unused adjacent memory, which improves the
performance. I'm investigating whether `deallocOsPages` can be used to
improve memory comsumption.

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.

For backwards compatibilities, we might need to keep the changes under a
preview compiler flag. Let's see how many packags it break.
**TODO** in the following PRs

`nimPreviewNonVarDestructor`

So, the test with http://example.com/404 should be disabled, I think.

fixes#23742
Before my PR, `setLen(0)` doesn't free buffer if `s != nil`, but it
allocated unnecessary memory for `strs`. This PR rectifies this
behavior. `setLen(0)` no longer allocates memory for uninitialized
strs/seqs

fixes#23730
Since #23188 the compiler errors when matching a type variable to an
uninstantiated static value. However sometimes an uninstantiated static
value is given even when only a type match is being performed to the
base type of the static type, in the given issue this case is:
```nim
proc foo[T: SomeInteger](x: T): int = int(x)
proc bar(x: static int): array[foo(x), int] = discard
discard bar(123)
```
To deal with this issue we only error when matching against a type
variable constrained to `static`.
Not sure if the `q.typ.kind == tyGenericParam and
q.typ.genericConstraint == tyStatic` check is necessary, the code above
for deciding whether the variable becomes `skConst` doesn't use it.

`dest.e1.a.kind = src.e1.a.kind` changes the discrimant but it fails to
clear the memory of `dest.e1.a`. Before using hooks for copying, we need
to clear the dest, e.g. `=wasMoved(dest.e1.a.c)`.
```nim
dest.`:state` = src.`:state`
var :tmp_553651276 = dest.e1.a
`=wasMoved`(dest.e1.a)
dest.e1.a.kind = src.e1.a.kind
case dest.e1.a.kind

`=wasMoved`(dest.e1.a.a)
dest.e1.a.a = src.e1.a.a
`=wasMoved`(dest.e1.a.b)
