This adds a `getSpareBits` method to all the TypeInfo classes
that returns a suitable bitmask indicating the spare bits available
in values of this type. This gives us a way to recursively explore
the type tree and build up a full spare bit mask for an arbitrary type.
Happily, it appears we actually do have enough information to do this
calculation entirely from first principles, without requiring additional
reflection information. So once this is stable, we should remove my
earlier incomplete effort to publish spare bit mask info in the reflection
data, as that adds unnecessary metadata to every binary.
This doubtless still has plenty of holes, but seems sufficient
to handle a few basic enum types, including the stdlib DecodingError
which was used as an example to work out some key issues.
This code rearchitects and simplifies the projectEnumValue support by
introducing a new `TypeInfo` subclass for each kind of enum, including trivial,
no-payload, single-payload, and three different classes for multi-payload enums:
* "UnsupportedEnum" that we don't understand. This returns "don't know" answers for all requests in cases where the runtime lacks enough information to accurately handle a particular enum.
* MP Enums that only use a separate tag value. This includes generic enums and other dynamic layouts, as well as enums whose payloads have no spare bits.
* MP Enums that use spare bits, possibly in addition to a separate tag. This logic can only be used, of course, if we can in fact compute a spare bit mask that agrees with the compiler.
The final challenge is to choose one of the above three handlings for every MPE. Currently, we do not have an accurate source of information for the spare bit mask, so we never choose the third option above. We use the second option for dynamic MPE layouts (including generics) and the first for everything else.
TODO: Once we can arrange for the compiler to expose spare bit mask data, we'll be able to use that to drive more MPE cases.
* First part of multi-payload enum support
This handles multi-payload enums with fixed
layouts that don't use spare payload bits.
It includes XI calculations that allow us to
handle single-payload enums where the payload
ultimately includes a multi-payload enum
(For example, on 32-bit platforms, String uses
a multi-payload enum, so this now supports single-payload
enums carrying Strings.)
Teach RemoteMirror how to project enum values
This adds two new functions to the SwiftRemoteMirror
facility that support inspecting enum values.
Currently, these support non-payload enums and
single-payload enums, including nested enums and
payloads with struct, tuple, and reference payloads.
In particular, it handles nested `Optional` types.
TODO: Multi-payload enums use different strategies for
encoding the cases that aren't yet supported by this
code.
Note: This relies on information from dataLayoutQuery
to correctly decode invalid pointer values that are used
to encode enums. Existing clients will need to augment
their DLQ functions before using these new APIs.
