There is no straightforward way for the Zig team to access the Solaris system
headers; to do this, one has to create an Oracle account, accept their EULA to
download the installer ISO, and finally install it on a machine or VM. We do not
have to jump through hoops like this for any other OS that we support, and no
one on the team has expressed willingness to do it.
As a result, we cannot audit any Solaris contributions to std.c or other
similarly sensitive parts of the standard library. The best we would be able to
do is assume that Solaris and illumos are 100% compatible with no way to verify
that assumption. But at that point, the solaris and illumos OS tags would be
functionally identical anyway.
For Solaris especially, any contributions that involve APIs introduced after the
OS was made closed-source would also be inherently more risky than equivalent
contributions for other proprietary OSs due to the case of Google LLC v. Oracle
America, Inc., wherein Oracle clearly demonstrated its willingness to pursue
legal action against entities that merely copy API declarations.
Finally, Oracle laid off most of the Solaris team in 2017; the OS has been in
maintenance mode since, presumably to be retired completely sometime in the 2030s.
For these reasons, this commit removes all Oracle Solaris support.
Anyone who still wishes to use Zig on Solaris can try their luck by simply using
illumos instead of solaris in target triples - chances are it'll work. But there
will be no effort from the Zig team to support this use case; we recommend that
people move to illumos instead.

We need to parse the `.ARM.exidx` section to be able to reliably unwind
the stack on ARM.

Previously, the `test-stack-traces` step was essentially just testing
error traces, and even there we didn't have much coverage. This commit
solves that by splitting the "stack trace" tests into two separate
harnesses: the "stack trace" tests are for actual stack traces (i.e.
involving stack unwinding), while the "error trace" tests are
specifically for error return traces.
The "stack trace" tests will test different configurations of:
* `-lc`
* `-fPIE`
* `-fomit-frame-pointer`
* `-fllvm`
* unwind tables (currently disabled)
* strip debug info (currently disabled)
The main goal there is to test *stack unwinding* under different
conditions. Meanwhile, the "error trace" tests will test different
configurations of `-O` and `-fllvm`; the main goal here, aside from
checking that error traces themselves do not miscompile, is to check
whether debug info is still working even in optimized builds. Of course,
aggressive optimizations *can* thwart debug info no matter what, so as
before, there is a way to disable cases for specific targets / optimize
modes.
The program which converts stack traces into a more validatable format
by removing things like addresses (previously `check-stack-trace.zig`,
now `convert-stack-trace.zig`) has been rewritten and simplified. Also,
thanks to various fixes in this branch, several workarounds have become
unnecessary: for instance, we don't need to ignore the function name
printed in stack traces in release modes, because `std.debug.Dwarf` now
uses the correct DIE for inlined functions!
Neither `test-stack-traces` nor `test-error-traces` does general foreign
architecture testing, because it seems that (at least for now) external
executors often aren't particularly good at handling stack tracing
correctly (looking at you, Wine). Generally, they just test the native
target (this matches the old behavior of `test-stack-traces`). However,
there is one exception: when on an x86_64 or aarch64 host, we will also
test the 32-bit version (x86 or arm) if the OS supports it, because such
executables can be trivially tested without an external executor.
Oh, also, I wrote a bunch of stack trace tests. Previously there was,
erm, *one* test in `test-stack-traces` which wasn't for error traces.
Now there are a good few!

There are some blocking bugs in the self-hosted ELF linker.

Adds `addFileContentArg` and `addPrefixedFileContentArg` to pass the content
of a file with a lazy path as an argument to a `std.Build.Step.Run`.
This enables replicating shell `$()` / cmake `execute_process` with `OUTPUT_VARIABLE`
as an input to another `execute_process` in conjuction with `captureStdOut`/`captureStdErr`.
To also be able to replicate `$()` automatically trimming trailing newlines and cmake
`OUTPUT_STRIP_TRAILING_WHITESPACE`, this patch adds an `options` arg to those functions
which allows specifying the desired handling of surrounding whitespace.
The `options` arg also allows to specify a custom `basename` for the output. e.g.
to add a file extension (concrete use case: Zig `@import()` requires files to have a
`.zig`/`.zon` extension to recognize them as valid source files).

This struct is larger than 256 bytes and code that copies it
consistently shows up in profiles of the compiler.

Allows the stack trace tests to be additionally compiled and run with
`.use_llvm = false, .use_lld = false` depending on the host target. This
is currently enabled for x86_64 targets emitting ELF.
Self-hosted backends emit slightly different DWARF info to the LLVM
backend, so the checking logic (and the tests themselves) had to be
tweaked slightly to support both backends at once.

Adds a missing call to addLazyPathDependenciesOnly in
std.Build.Module.addCSourceFiles. Also fixes an issue in
std.Build.Step.WriteFile where it wasn't updating all the GeneratedFile
instances for every directory. To fix the second issue, I removed
all the GeneratedFile instances and now all files/directories reference
the steps main GeneratedFile via sub paths.

Instead of introducing YES_COLOR, a completely new standard, into the mix
it might make more sense to instead tag along with the CLICOLOR_FORCE env var,
which dates back to at least 2000 with FreeBSD 4.1.1 and which is
supported by tools like CMake.

* make test names contain the fully qualified name
* make test filters match the fully qualified name
* allow multiple test filters, where a test is skipped if it does not
match any of the specified filters

ReleaseSafe optimization mode now defaults error tracing to false.

Introduce the concept of "target query" and "resolved target". A target
query is what the user specifies, with some things left to default. A
resolved target has the default things discovered and populated.
In the future, std.zig.CrossTarget will be rename to std.Target.Query.
Introduces `std.Build.resolveTargetQuery` to get from one to the other.
The concept of `main_mod_path` is gone, no longer supported. You have to
put the root source file at the module root now.
* remove deprecated API
* update build.zig for the breaking API changes in this branch
* move std.Build.Step.Compile.BuildId to std.zig.BuildId
* add more options to std.Build.ExecutableOptions, std.Build.ObjectOptions,
std.Build.SharedLibraryOptions, std.Build.StaticLibraryOptions, and
std.Build.TestOptions.
* remove `std.Build.constructCMacro`. There is no use for this API.
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.defineCMacro`. Instead,
`std.Build.Module.addCMacro` is provided.
- remove `std.Build.Step.Compile.defineCMacroRaw`.
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.linkFrameworkNeeded`
- use `std.Build.Module.linkFramework`
* deprecate `std.Build.Step.Compile.linkFrameworkWeak`
- use `std.Build.Module.linkFramework`
* move more logic into `std.Build.Module`
* allow `target` and `optimize` to be `null` when creating a Module.
Along with other fields, those unspecified options will be inherited
from parent `Module` when inserted into an import table.
* the `target` field of `addExecutable` is now required. pass `b.host`
to get the host target.
