Adding abstractions to check terms for shape symbol and remove the shape
symbol from the end of the sequence of symbols, rather than manually
manipulating the end() sequence externally.
Reformatting everything now that we have `llvm` namespaces. I've
separated this from the main commit to help manage merge-conflicts and
for making it a bit easier to read the mega-patch.
This is phase-1 of switching from llvm::Optional to std::optional in the
next rebranch. llvm::Optional was removed from upstream LLVM, so we need
to migrate off rather soon. On Darwin, std::optional, and llvm::Optional
have the same layout, so we don't need to be as concerned about ABI
beyond the name mangling. `llvm::Optional` is only returned from one
function in
```
getStandardTypeSubst(StringRef TypeName,
bool allowConcurrencyManglings);
```
It's the return value, so it should not impact the mangling of the
function, and the layout is the same as `std::optional`, so it should be
mostly okay. This function doesn't appear to have users, and the ABI was
already broken 2 years ago for concurrency and no one seemed to notice
so this should be "okay".
I'm doing the migration incrementally so that folks working on main can
cherry-pick back to the release/5.9 branch. Once 5.9 is done and locked
away, then we can go through and finish the replacement. Since `None`
and `Optional` show up in contexts where they are not `llvm::None` and
`llvm::Optional`, I'm preparing the work now by going through and
removing the namespace unwrapping and making the `llvm` namespace
explicit. This should make it fairly mechanical to go through and
replace llvm::Optional with std::optional, and llvm::None with
std::nullopt. It's also a change that can be brought onto the
release/5.9 with minimal impact. This should be an NFC change.
In a confluent rewrite system, if the left hand side of a rule
X => Y can be reduced by some other rule X' => Y', then it is
permissible to delete the original rule X => Y altogether.
Confluence means that rewrite rules can be applied in any
order, so it is always valid to apply X' => Y' first, thus
X => Y is obsolete.
This was previously done in the completion procedure via a
quadratic algorithm that attempted to reduce each existing
rule via the newly-added rule obtained by resolving a critical
pair. Instead, we can do this in the post-processing pass
where we reduce right hand sides using a trie to speed up
the lookup.
This increases the amount of work performed by the
completion procedure, but eliminates the quadratic algorithm,
saving time overall.
Previously RewriteSystem::simplify() would attempt to apply every
rewrite rule at every position in the original term, which was
obviously a source of overhead.
The trie itself is somewhat unoptimized; for example, with a bit of
effort it could merge a node with its only child, if nodes stored
a range of elements to compare rather than a single element.
