The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
This is a breaking change.
This commit applies the following rules to std.os.uefi:
* avoid redundant names in the namespace such as "protocol.FooProtocol"
* don't initialize struct field to undefined. do that at the
initialization site if you want that, or create a named constant that
sets all the fields to undefined.
* avoid the word "data", "info", "context", "state", "details", or
"config" in the type name, especially if a word from that category is
already in the type name.
* embrace tree structure
After following these rules, `usingnamespace` disappeared naturally.
This commit eliminates 26/53 (49%) instances of `usingnamespace` in the
standard library. All these uses were due to not understanding how
to properly use namespaces.
I did not test this commit. The standard library UEFI code is
experimental and pull requests have been accepted with minimal vetting.
Users of std.os.uefi will need to submit follow-up pull requests to fix
up whatever regressions this commit introduces, this time without
abusing namespaces (pun intended).
