and rename std.io.BufferedWriter.writableSlice to writableSliceGreedy
and make writableSlice and writableArray advance the buffer end position
introduce std.io.BufferedWriter.writeSplatLimit but it's unimplemented
remove std.fs.Dir.readFileAllocOptions, replace with more flexible API
readFileIntoArrayList
remove std.fs.File.readToEndAllocOptions, replace with more flexible API
readIntoArrayList
update std.fs.File to new reader/writer API
add helper functions to std.io.Reader.Limit
replace std.io.Writer.FileLen with std.io.Reader.Limit
make offset a type rather than u64 so that it can distinguish between
streaming read and positional read
avoid an unnecessary allocation in std.zig.readSourceFileToEndAlloc when
there is a UTF-16 little endian BOM.
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.
Use inline to vastly simplify the exposed API. This allows a
comptime-known endian parameter to be propogated, making extra functions
for a specific endianness completely unnecessary.
The idea here is to avoid code bloat by having only one actual io.Reader
implementation, which is type erased, and then implement a GenericReader
that preserves type information on top of that as thin glue code.
The strategy here is for that glue code to `@errSetCast` the result of
the type-erased reader functions, however, while trying to do that I
ran into #17343.
