SE-390 concluded with choosing the keyword discard rather than forget for
the statement that disables the deinit of a noncopyable type. This commit
adds parsing support for `discard self` and adds a deprecation warning for
`_forget self`.
rdar://108859077
Currently, this is staged in as `_forget`,
as part of SE-390. It can only be used on
`self` for a move-only type within a consuming
method or accessor. There are other rules, see
Sema for the details.
A `forget self` really just consumes self and
performs memberwise destruction of its data.
Thus, the current expansion of this statement
just reuses what we inject into the end of a
deinit.
Parsing of `forget` is "contextual".
By contextual I mean that we do lookahead to
the next token and see if it's identifier-like.
If so, then we parse it as the `forget` statement.
Otherwise, we parse it as though "forget" is an
identifier as part of some expression.
This way, we won't introduce a source break for
people who wrote code that calls a forget
function.
This should make it seamless to change it from
`_forget` to `forget` in the future.

This allows us to evolve e.g. token kinds and how attributes are modelled independently between SwiftSyntax and the compiler. It also makes it easier to e.g. add an attribute because you don’t need to create PRs for two repositories.
Make libSyntax depend on swift-syntax: the new home for all
of this infrastructure. This greatly simplifies the addition and
amending of syntax nodes as only the swift-syntax paired with a
swift checkout will need to be changed. This is in contrast to
the existing build flow where a paired PR to both repos must be
made to change anything here.
Note that a paired PR may still be required if the legacy parser
needs to be adjusted in response to syntax nodes changing, but I
anticipate this to be a much more infrequent event now that
the C++ end of libSyntax is deprecated.
With `-enable-experimental-string-processing`,
start lexing `'` delimiters as regex literals (this
is just a placeholder delimiter for now). The
contents of which gets passed to the libswift
library, which can return an error string to be
emitted, or null for success.
The libswift side isn't yet hooked up to the Swift
regex parser, so for now just emit a dummy
diagnostic for regexes starting with quantifiers.
If successful, build an AST node which will be
emitted as an implicit call to an
`init(_regexString:)` initializer of an in-scope
`Regex` decl (which will eventually be a known
stdlib decl).
Replace the uglified '__await' keyword with a contextual keyword
'await'. This is more of what we would actually want for the
concurrency model.
When concurrency is enabled, this will be a source-breaking change,
because this is valid Swift code today:
```swift
struct MyFuture<T> {
func await() -> }
func doSomething() {
let result = await()
}
}
```
but the call to `await()` will be parsed as an await expression when
concurrency is enabled. The source break is behind the experimental
concurrency flag, but this way we can see how much of an issue it is
in practice.
Similar to `try`, await expressions have no specific semantics of their
own except to indicate that the subexpression contains calls to `async`
functions, which are suspension points. In this design, there can be
multiple such calls within the subexpression of a given `await`.
Note that we currently use the keyword `__await` because `await` in
this position introduces grammatical ambiguities. We'll wait until
later to sort out the specific grammar we want and evaluate
source-compatibility tradeoffs. It's possible that this kind of prefix
operator isn't what we want anyway.
For invalid code, lexer is forgiving enough to allow single quote '\'' as the starting point
of string literals. Later, parser assumes the string literals are always using double quote "\"", and passes
such knowledge to SwiftSyntax side, leading to the round-trip failure we observed in the radar.
This commit fixes the issue by introducing another token kind for single quote.

`#assert` is a new static assertion statement that will let us write
tests for the new constant evaluation infrastructure that we are working
on. `#assert` works by lowering to a `Builtin.poundAssert` SIL
instruction. The constant evaluation infrastructure will look for these
SIL instructions, const-evaluate their conditions, and emit errors if
the conditions are non-constant or false.
This commit implements parsing, typechecking and SILGen for `#assert`.
For now, the accessors have been underscored as `_read` and `_modify`.
I'll prepare an evolution proposal for this feature which should allow
us to remove the underscores or, y'know, rename them to `purple` and
`lettuce`.
`_read` accessors do not make any effort yet to avoid copying the
value being yielded. I'll work on it in follow-up patches.
Opaque accesses to properties and subscripts defined with `_modify`
accessors will use an inefficient `materializeForSet` pattern that
materializes the value to a temporary instead of accessing it in-place.
That will be fixed by migrating to `modify` over `materializeForSet`,
which is next up after the `read` optimizations.
SIL ownership verification doesn't pass yet for the test cases here
because of a general fault in SILGen where borrows can outlive their
borrowed value due to being cleaned up on the general cleanup stack
when the borrowed value is cleaned up on the formal-access stack.
Michael, Andy, and I discussed various ways to fix this, but it seems
clear to me that it's not in any way specific to coroutine accesses.

A string interpolation expression is composed of { OpenQuote, Segments,
CloseQuote }. To represent OpenQuote, CloseQuote and StringSegment, we have to
introduce new token kinds correspondingly.
* Create Swift libSyntax API
This patch is an initial implementation of the Swift libSyntax API. It
aims to provide all features of the C++ API but exposed to Swift.
It currently resides in SwiftExperimental and will likely exist in a
molten state for a while.
* Only build SwiftSyntax on macOS
* Generate libSyntax API
This patch removes the hand-rolled libSyntax API and replaces it with an
API that's entirely automatically generated. This means the API is
guaranteed to be internally stylistically and functionally consistent.
