fixes#12672, fixes#14153, closes#14123, closes#11331, fixes#11783, fixes#13966, fixes#14087, fixes#14117, closes#12256.
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.
* fix https://github.com/timotheecour/Nim/issues/133; $(a: float) works in nim js like in other backends
* fix tests
* fix test for windows that prints 1.1e17 differently than other OS
* conversions to unsigned numbers are not checked anymore; implements / fixes https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/175
* change the spec yet again to be less consistent but to make more sense; updated the changelog
