* mem: refactor tests of split()
- add a few cases for .rest()
- use expectEqualSlices()
* mem: add splitBackwards
Over the last couple of weeks weeks I needed to iterate over a
collection backwards at least twice. Do we want to have this in stdlib?
If yes, click "Merge" and start using today! Free shipping and returns
(before 1.0).
Why is this useful?
-------------------
I need this for building an error wrapper: errors are added in the
wrapper from "lowest" level to "highest" level, and then printed in
reverse order. Imagine `UpdateUsers` call, which needs to return
`error.InvalidInput` and a wrappable error context. In Go we would add a
context to the error when returning it:
// if update_user fails, add context on which user we are operating
if err := update_user(user); err != nil {
return fmt.Errorf("user id=%d: %w", user.id, err)
}
Since Zig cannot pass anything else than u16 with an error (#2647), I
will pass a `err_ctx: *Err`, to the callers, where they can, besides
returning an error, augment it with auxiliary data. `Err` is a
preallocated array that can add zero-byte-separated strings. For a
concrete example, imagine such a call graph:
update_user(User, *Err) error{InvalidInput}!<...>
validate_user([]const u8, *Err) error{InvalidInput}!<...>
Where `validate_user` would like, besides only the error, signal the
invalid field. And `update_user`, besides the error, would signal the
offending user id.
We also don't want the low-level functions to know in which context they
are operating to construct a meaningful error message: if validation
fails, they append their "context" to the buffer. To translate/augment
the Go example above:
pub fn validate_user(err_ctx: *Err, user: User) error{InvalidInput}!void {
const name = user.name;
if (!ascii.isAlpha(name)) {
err_ctx.print("name '{s}' must be ascii-letters only", .{name});
return error.InvalidInput;
}
<...>
}
// update_user validates each user and does something with it.
pub fn update_user(err_ctx: *Err, user: User) error{InvalidInput}!void {
// validate the user before updating it
validate_user(user) catch {
err_ctx.print("user id={d}", .{user.id});
return error.InvalidInput;
};
<...>
}
Then the top-level function (in my case, CLI) will read the buffer
backwards (splitting on `"\x00"`) and print:
user id=123: name 'Žvangalas' must be ascii-letters only
To read that buffer backwards, dear readers of this commit message, I
need `mem.splitBackwards`.

Rename all references of sparcv9 to sparc64, to make Zig align more with
other projects. Also, added new function to convert glibc arch name to Zig
arch name, since it refers to the architecture as sparcv9.
This is based on the suggestion by @kubkon in PR 11847.

We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.

Partially addresses #9203. It fixes the first case, but not the second

With this change zig ld can link with dynamic libraries
contained within a fat/universal file that had multiple
seperate binaries embedded within it for multi-arch
support (in macOS).
Whilst zig can still only create single-architecture
executables - the ability to link with fat libraries is
useful for cases where they are the easiest (or only)
option to link against.

Add two helpers to ensure people won't ignore some edge cases such as
pointers overflowing the address space.
Also fix #8924 to some degree, the amount of unchecked alignForward is
still scary.
