* IdGenerator must be a ref type; hello world works again
* make bootstrapping work again
* progress: add back the 'exactReplica' ideas
* added back the missing exactReplica hacks
* make tcompilerapi work again
* make important packages green
* attempt to fix the build for 32 bit machines (probably need a better solution here)
* `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
* first implementation of the =trace and =dispose hooks for the cycle collector
* a cycle collector for ARC: progress
* manual: the .acyclic pragma is a thing once again
* gcbench: adaptations for --gc:arc
* enable valgrind tests for the strutils tests
* testament: better valgrind support
* ARC refactoring: growable jumpstacks
* ARC cycle detector: non-recursive algorithm
* moved and renamed core/ files back to system/
* refactoring: --gc:arc vs --gc:orc since 'orc' is even more experimental and we want to ship --gc:arc soonish
* make fullpaths the default in error messages and stack traces for more convenient development
* split up -d:release into -d:release and -d:danger flags
* workaround a Nim config parser bug
* fixes an old nim config parser bug
* make megatest green again
* make nimpretty tests work again
* make nimsuggest green
Reuse the existing machinery, most of the changes are only needed to
handle the `result = result` node in nkReturnStmt produced by the
closure iterator transform.
