Instead of creating the AST directly in the parser (and libSyntax or
SwiftSyntax via SyntaxParsingContext), make Parser to explicitly create
a tree of ParsedSyntaxNodes. Their OpaqueSyntaxNodes can be either
libSyntax or SwiftSyntax. If AST is needed, it can be generated from the
libSyntax tree.
To ensure SwiftSyntax calls a compatible parser library, this patch sets
up a C API that returns a constant string calculated during compilation time to indicate
the version of syntax node declarations. The same hash will be calculated
in the SwiftSyntax (client) side as well by using the same algorithm.
During runtime, SwiftSyntax will verify its hash value is identical to the
result of calling swiftparse_node_declaration_hash before actual
parsing happens.
This patch only sets the API up. The actual implementation of the
hashing algorithm will come later.
This eliminates the overhead of doing name lookups during parsing (which is unncessary during syntactic parsing) by enabling the `EnableASTScopeLookup` lang option.
This eliminates the overhead of ParsedRawSyntaxNode needing to do memory management.
If ParsedRawSyntaxNode needs to point to some data the memory is allocated from a bump allocator.
There are also some improvements on how the ParsedSyntaxBuilders work.
Add a shared library with a C API that provides access to the syntactic parser with callbacks for the inference of raw syntax nodes.
This is primarily intended to be used by SwiftSyntax to speed-up source code parsing for it.
