The goal here is to make the short demangling as short and readable as possible, also at the cost of omitting some information.
The assumption is that whenever the short demangling is displayed, there is a way for the user to also get the full demangled name if needed.
*) omit <where ...> because it does not give useful information anyway
Deserializer.deserialize<A where ...> () throws -> [A]
--> Deserializer.deserialize<A> () throws -> [A]
*) for multiple specialized functions only emit a single “specialized”
specialized specialized Constructible.create(A.Element) -> Constructible<A>
--> specialized Constructible.create(A.Element) -> Constructible<A>
*) Don’t print function argument types:
foo(Int, Double, named: Int)
--> foo(_:_:named:)
This is a trade-off, because it can lead to ambiguity if there are overloads with different types.
*) make contexts of closures, local functions, etc. more readable by using “<a> in <b>” syntax
This is also done for the full and not only for the simplified demangling.
Renderer.(renderInlines([Inline]) -> String).(closure #1)
--> closure #1 in Renderer.renderInlines
*) change spacing, so that it matches our coding style:
foo <A> (x : A)
--> foo<A>(x: A)
Previously it was part of swiftBasic.
The demangler library does not depend on llvm (except some header-only utilities like StringRef). Putting it into its own library makes sure that no llvm stuff will be linked into clients which use the demangler library.
This change also contains other refactoring, like moving demangler code into different files. This makes it easier to remove the old demangler from the runtime library when we switch to the new symbol mangling.
Also in this commit: remove some unused API functions from the demangler Context.
