When an identifier is ambiguous in scope (i.e. multiple imports contain
symbols with the same name), attempt resolving it through type inference
(by creating a symchoice). To do this efficiently, `qualifiedLookUp` had
to be broken up so that `semExpr` can access the ambiguous candidates
directly (now obtained directly via `lookUpCandidates`).
This fixes the linked issues, but an example like:
```nim
let on = 123
{.warning[ProveInit]: on.}
```
will still fail, since `on` is unambiguously the local `let` symbol here
(this is also true for `proc on` but `proc` symbols generate symchoices
anyway).
Type symbols are not considered to not confuse the type inference. This
includes the change in sigmatch, up to this point symchoices with
nonoverloadable symbols could be created, they just wouldn't be
considered during disambiguation. Now every proper symbol except types
are considered in disambiguation, so the correct symbols must be picked
during the creation of the symchoice node. I remember there being a
violating case of this in the compiler, but this was very likely fixed
by excluding type symbols as CI seems to have found no issues.
The pure enum ambiguity test was disabled because ambiguous pure enums
now behave like overloadable enums with this behavior, so we get a
longer error message for `echo amb` like `type mismatch: got <MyEnum |
OtherEnum> but expected T`
Filling in some more logic in `typeRel` that I came across when poking
the compiler in another PR. Some of the cases where `typeRel` returns an
"incorrect" result are actually common, but `sumGeneric` ends up
breaking the tie correctly. There isn't anything wrong with that
necessarily, but I assume that it's preferred these functions behave
just as well in isolation as they do when integrated.
I will be following up this description with specific examples.
Fixes an issue where importing the `strutils` module, or any other
importing the `strutils` module, ends up with a compile time error on
platforms where ints are less then 32-bit wide.
The fix follows the suggestions made in #23125.
(Inspired by this pragma in nir asm PR)
`inlineAsmSyntax` pragma allowing specify target inline assembler syntax
in `asm` stmt.
It prevents compiling code with different of the target CC inline asm
syntax, i.e. it will not allow gcc inline asm code to be compiled with
vcc.
```nim
proc nothing() =
asm {.inlineAsmSyntax: "gcc".} """
nop
"""
```
The current C(C++) backend implementation cannot generate code for gcc
and for vcc at the same time. For example, `{.inlineAsmSyntax: "vcc".}`
with the ICC compiler will not generate code with intel asm syntax, even
though ICC can use both gcc-like asm and vcc-like. For implement support
for gcc and for vcc at the same time in ICC compiler, we need to
refactor extccomp

I have made `realloc` absorb unused adjacent memory, which improves the
performance. I'm investigating whether `deallocOsPages` can be used to
improve memory comsumption.
Rendering of `nkRecList` produces an indent and adds a new line at the
end. However for things like case object `of`/`else` branches or `when`
branches this is already done, so this produces 2 indents and an extra
new line. Instead, just add an indent in the place where the indent that
`nkRecList` produces is needed, for the rendering of the final node of
`nkObjectTy`. There doesn't seem to be a need to add the newline.
Before:
```nim
case x*: bool
of true:
y*: int
of false:
nil
```
After:
```nim
case x*: bool
of true:
y*: int
of false:
nil
```
Continued from #23096 which was reverted due to breaking a package and
failing docgen tests. Docgen should now work, but ~~a PR is still
pending for the package: https://github.com/SciNim/Unchained/pull/45~~
has been merged
refs #23091, especially post merge comments
Unsure if `experimental` and `bind` are the perfect constructs to use
but they seem to get the job done here. Symbol nodes do not get marked
`nfOpenSym` if the `bind` statement is used for their symbol, and
`nfOpenSym` nodes do not get replaced by new local symbols if the
experimental switch is not enabled in the local context (meaning it also
works with `push experimental`). However this incurs a warning as the
fact that the node is marked `nfOpenSym` means we did not `bind` it, so
we might want to do that or turn on the experimental switch if we didn't
intend to bind it.
The experimental switch name is arbitrary and could be changed.

This code will crash `check`/`nimsuggest` since the `ra` register is
uninitialised
```nim
import macros
static:
discard parseExpr("'")
```
Now it assigns an empty node so that it has something
Testament changes were so I could properly write a test. It would pass
even with a segfault since it could find the error
fixes#22605, separated from #22744
This marks symbol captures in macro calls in generic contexts as
`nfOpenSym`, which means if there is a new symbol in the local
instantiatied body during instantiation time, this symbol replaces the
captured symbol. We have to be careful not to consider symbols outside
of the instantiation body during instantiation, because this will leak
symbols from the instantiation context scope rather than the original
declaration scope. This is done by checking if the local context owner
(maybe should be the symbol of the proc currently getting instantiated
instead? not sure how to get this) is the same as or a parent owner of
the owner of the replacement candidate symbol.
This solution is distinct from the symchoice mechanisms which we
originally assumed had to be related, if this assumption was wrong it
would explain why this solution took so long to arrive at.
Closes#14329
Marks `macros.error` as `.noreturn` so that it can be used in
expressions. This also fixes the issue that occurred in #19659 where a
stmt that could be an expression (Due to having `discardable` procs at
the end of other branches) would believe a `noreturn` proc is returning
the same type e.g.
```nim
proc bar(): int {.discardable.} = discard
if true: bar()
else: quit(0) # Says that quit is of type `int` and needs to be used/discarded except it actually has no return type
```

rationale:
- `3u - 4u` is supported why not`3u.toRational - 4u.toRational`
- all of rationals' api is on SomeInteger, looks like unsigned is
declared as supported
- math on unsigned rationals is meaningful and useful.
