options which are passed to configurer and therefore observable by the
build script are added to the cache hash. A sorted list is hashed since
they are unordered.
I had this idea to make b.dupe() also intern the strings since they will
be ultimately serialized to Configuration. Unfortunately the idea does
not work, because although a process-lived arena is used for the
string_bytes ArrayList of the Configuration.Wip, when the ArrayList is
resized, Allocator.free() memsets the freed memory to undefined, even
though it still technically lives due to being in a process-scoped
arena. So this commit will need to be partially reverted. However, I
kept it for posterity, and there are some more changes which I will now
note below.
- dupePaths: don't rewrite backslashes to forward slashes. backslashes
are valid in filenames on non-windows systems.
- always compile configurer in single-threaded mode
- use arena allocator for everything, no gpa for anything
- construct the Configuration.Wip instance earlier, so some stuff can be
prepopulated as desired.
- don't forget to flush
