Introduce a new concept in the IR that allows a producer to create
dynamic vector types. An IR function can now contain global value(s)
that represent a dynamic scaling factor, for a given fixed-width
vector type. A dynamic type is then created by 'multiplying' the
corresponding global value with a fixed-width type. These new types
can be used just like the existing types and the type system has a
set of hard-coded dynamic types, such as I32X4XN, which the user
defined types map onto. The dynamic types are also used explicitly
to create dynamic stack slots, which have no set size like their
existing counterparts. New IR instructions are added to access these
new stack entities.
Currently, during codegen, the dynamic scaling factor has to be
lowered to a constant so the dynamic slots do eventually have a
compile-time known size, as do spill slots.
The current lowering for aarch64 just targets Neon, using a dynamic
scale of 1.

Move from passing and returning u8 and u16 values to u32 in many of
the functions. This removes a number of type conversions and gives
a small compilation time speedup, around ~0.7% on my aarch64 machine.

This commit adds support for denoting cold blocks in the CLIF text
format as follows:
```plain
function %f() {
block0(...):
...
block1 cold:
...
block2(...) cold:
...
block3:
...
```
With this syntax, we are able to see the cold-block flag in CLIF, we can
write tests using it, and it is preserved when round-tripping.
Fixes#3701.
Clif files are not meant to be written by end-users anyway. The main
effects are that non-ascii identifiers fail to lex instead of parse and
whitespace must now be in the ascii range. Comments still have full
unicode support.
This also inlines all char::is_* methods to avoid nested matches.
Overall this results in a slight reduction of instruction count.
This allows us to give names to constants in the constant pool and then use these names in the function body. The original behavior, specifiying the constant value as an instruction immediate, is still supported as a shortcut but some filetests had to change since the canonical way of printing the CLIF constants is now in the preamble.
* Manually rename BasicBlock to BlockPredecessor
BasicBlock is a pair of (Ebb, Inst) that is used to represent the
basic block subcomponent of an Ebb that is a predecessor to an Ebb.
Eventually we will be able to remove this struct, but for now it
makes sense to give it a non-conflicting name so that we can start
to transition Ebb to represent a basic block.
I have not updated any comments that refer to BasicBlock, as
eventually we will remove BlockPredecessor and replace with Block,
which is a basic block, so the comments will become correct.
* Manually rename SSABuilder block types to avoid conflict
SSABuilder has its own Block and BlockData types. These along with
associated identifier will cause conflicts in a later commit, so
they are renamed to be more verbose here.
* Automatically rename 'Ebb' to 'Block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'EBB' to 'block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'ebb' to 'block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'extended basic block' to 'basic block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'an basic block' to 'a basic block' in *.rs
* Manually update comment for `Block`
`Block`'s wikipedia article required an update.
* Automatically rename 'an `Block`' to 'a `Block`' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'extended_basic_block' to 'basic_block' in *.rs
* Automatically rename 'ebb' to 'block' in *.clif
* Manually rename clif constant that contains 'ebb' as substring to avoid conflict
* Automatically rename filecheck uses of 'EBB' to 'BB'
'regex: EBB' -> 'regex: BB'
'$EBB' -> '$BB'
* Automatically rename 'EBB' 'Ebb' to 'block' in *.clif
* Automatically rename 'an block' to 'a block' in *.clif
* Fix broken testcase when function name length increases
Test function names are limited to 16 characters. This causes
the new longer name to be truncated and fail a filecheck test. An
outdated comment was also fixed.
Cranelift can be compiled with feature flags which can change its output. To
accomodate changes of output related to feature flags, test file can now include
`feature "..."` and `feature ! "..."` directives in the preamble of the test
file.
The test runner would skip the test if the flag does not match the expectation
of the test case.
-Add resumable_trap, safepoint, isnull, and null instructions
-Add Stackmap struct and StackmapSink trait
