This makes the demangler about 10 times faster.
It also changes the lifetimes of nodes. Previously nodes were reference-counted.
Now the returned demangle node-tree is owned by the Demangler class and it’s lifetime ends with the lifetime of the Demangler.
Therefore the old (and already deprecated) global functions demangleSymbolAsNode and demangleTypeAsNode are no longer available.
Another change is that the demangling for reflection now only supports the new mangling (which should be no problem because
we are generating only new mangled names for reflection).
demangling tree back into a mangled string.
Also, extend the demangling API in a few obvious
ways, and simplify testing for failure in the
node-returning APIs by having them simply return
null instead of a spurious Failure node.
Also, preserve slightly more information in the
demangling tree. The goal here is eventually to
always allow a perfect round-trip through the
demangler parse tree. This patch gets us close,
but we're not quite there yet.
Tests to follow.
