ringabout 43ac102ca8 fixes #25800; move now uses its declaration for overridden =wasMoved (#25809)
fixes #25800
closes https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/25807
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/25800

This pull request improves the handling of move semantics and the
`=wasMoved` hook in the Nim compiler, especially for C++ code generation
and user-defined types. It refactors the move operation logic to better
support custom hooks, adds new tests for edge cases, and ensures that
the `move` operation is safer and more predictable.

**Move semantics and `=wasMoved` handling:**

* Refactored the move operation in `compiler/ccgexprs.nim` by
introducing helper procs (`canGenMoveCall`, `genMoveCall`,
`genWasMovedCall`, `genMoveWithWasMoved`) to better handle cases with
user-defined `=wasMoved` hooks, especially for generics and C++ interop.
The logic now distinguishes between simple assignments and when to call
custom hooks, improving correctness and maintainability.

* Updated the `move` proc in `lib/system.nim` to include the `nodestroy`
pragma, preventing double destruction and making move semantics safer.

**Testing and validation:**

* Added a new test (`tests/ccgbugs2/t25800.nim`) to ensure that
user-defined `=wasMoved` hooks with `{.importcpp.}` are correctly
generated and invoked in C++ code, addressing a specific bug with
invalid preprocessor directives.
* Expanded `tests/destructor/twasmoved.nim` with additional test cases
for objects with and without custom `=wasMoved` hooks, including
multithreaded scenarios using `threadpool`, to verify correct behavior
in a variety of contexts.

**Minor cleanup:**

* Added a blank line for code style consistency in
`compiler/semmagic.nim`.

This directory contains the test cases.

Each test must have a filename of the form: t*.nim

Note: Testament is only aware of tests under a directory (eg tests/foo/) and will ignore top-level tests like tests/tbar.nim.

Specs

Each test can contain a spec in a discard """ ... """ block.

Check out the parseSpec procedure in the specs module for a full and reliable reference

action

Specifies what action this test should take.

Default: run

Options:

  • compile - compiles the module and fails the test if compilations fails.
  • run - compiles and runs the module, fails the test if compilation or execution of test code fails.
  • reject - compiles the module and fails the test if compilation succeeds.

There are certain spec keys that imply run, including output and outputsub.

Categories

Each folder under this directory represents a test category, which can be tested by running koch tests pcat <category> (or cat to avoid parallel testing, which is slower).

The folder dll contains simple DLL tests.

The folder realtimeGC contains a test for validating that the realtime GC can run properly without linking against the nimrtl.dll/so.
