* fix comptime slice of slice not preserving mutatibility

* fix comptime slice of pointer not preserving mutability
of the comptime data
closes#826
LLVM 5.0.1, 6.0.0, and trunk crash when attempting to optimize coroutine code.
So, Zig does not support ReleaseFast or ReleaseSafe for coroutines yet.
Luckily, Clang users are running into the same crashes, so folks from the LLVM
community are working on fixes. If we're really lucky they'll be fixed in 6.0.1.
Otherwise we can hope for 7.0.0.
Allow implicit casts from n-th degree const pointers to nullable const
pointers of degree n+1. That is:
fn f() void {
const s = S {};
const p = &s;
g(p); // Works.
g(&p); // So does this.
}
fn g(_: ?&const &const S) void { // Nullable 2nd degree const ptr.
}
Fixes#731 some more.
Allow implicit casts from container types to nullable const pointers to
said container type. That is:
fn f() void {
const s = S {};
g(s); // Works.
g(&s); // So does this.
}
fn g(_: ?&const S) void { // Nullable const pointer.
}
Fixes#731.
* DirectAllocator does the underlying syscall for every allocation.
* ArenaAllocator takes another allocator as an argument and
allocates bytes up front, falling back to DirectAllocator with
increasingly large allocation sizes, to avoid calling it too often.
Then the entire arena can be freed at once.
The self hosted parser is updated to take advantage of ArenaAllocator
for the AST that it returns. This significantly reduces the complexity
of cleanup code.
docgen and build runner are updated to use the combination of
ArenaAllocator and DirectAllocator instead of IncrementingAllocator,
which is now deprecated in favor of FixedBufferAllocator combined
with DirectAllocator.
The C allocator calls aligned_alloc instead of malloc, in order to
respect the alignment parameter.
Added asserts in Allocator to ensure that implementors of the
interface return slices of the correct size.
Fixed a bug in Allocator when you call realloc to grow the allocation.
* move std.io.File to std.os.File
* add `zig fmt` to self hosted compiler
* introduce std.io.BufferedAtomicFile API
* introduce std.os.AtomicFile API
* add `std.os.default_file_mode`
* change FileMode on posix from being a usize to a u32
* add std.os.File.mode to return mode of an open file
* std.os.copyFile copies the mode from the source file instead of
using the default file mode for the dest file
* move `std.os.line_sep` to `std.cstr.line_sep`
Before we accepted a nullable allocator for some stuff like
opening files. Now we require an allocator.
Use the mem.FixedBufferAllocator pattern if a bound on the amount
to allocate is known.
This also establishes the pattern that usually an allocator is the
first argument to a function (possibly after "self").
fix docs for std.cstr.addNullByte
self hosted compiler:
* only build docs when explicitly asked to
* clean up main
* stub out zig fmt
