The idea here is that there are two ways we can reference a function at runtime:
* Through a direct call, i.e. where the function is comptime-known
* Through a function pointer
This means we can easily perform a form of rudimentary escape analysis
on functions. If we ever see a `decl_ref` or `ref` of a function, we
have a function pointer, which could "leak" into runtime code, so we
emit the function; but for a plain `decl_val`, there's no need to.
This change means that `comptime { _ = f; }` no longer forces a function
to be emitted, which was used for some things (mainly tests). These use
sites have been replaced with `_ = &f;`, which still triggers analysis
of the function body, since you're taking a pointer to the function.

This data changed quite significantly between DWARF 4 and 5. Some
systems are shipping DWARF 5 libraries (Void Linux on musl libc seems to
use it for crt1 etc), which meant when printing stack traces, a random
compile unit might be incorrectly identified as containing an address,
resulting in incorrect location information.
I was consistently experiencing this issue with compiler stack traces,
and this change fixed it.
There are many different types of Windows paths, and there are a few different possible namespaces on top of that. Before this commit, NT namespaced paths were somewhat supported, and for Win32 paths (those without a namespace prefix), only relative and drive absolute paths were supported. After this commit, all of the following are supported:
- Device namespaced paths (`\\.\`)
- Verbatim paths (`\\?\`)
- NT-namespaced paths (`\??\`)
- Relative paths (`foo`)
- Drive-absolute paths (`C:\foo`)
- Drive-relative paths (`C:foo`)
- Rooted paths (`\foo`)
- UNC absolute paths (`\\server\share\foo`)
- Root local device paths (`\\.` or `\\?` exactly)
Plus:
- Any of the path types and namespace types can be mixed and matched together as appropriate.
- All of the `std.os.windows.*ToPrefixedFileW` functions will accept any path type, prefixed or not, and do the appropriate thing to convert them to an NT-prefixed path if necessary.
This is achieved by making the `std.os.windows.*ToPrefixedFileW` functions behave like `ntdll.RtlDosPathNameToNtPathName_U`, but with a few differences:
- Does not allocate on the heap (this is why we can't use `ntdll.RtlDosPathNameToNtPathName_U` directly, it does internal heap allocation).
- Relative paths are kept as relative unless they contain too many .. components, in which case they are treated as 'drive relative' and resolved against the CWD (this is how it behaved before this commit as well).
- Special case device names like COM1, NUL, etc are not handled specially (TODO)
- `.` and space are not stripped from the end of relative paths (potential TODO)
Most of the non-trivial conversion of non-relative paths is done via `ntdll.RtlGetFullPathName_U`, which AFAIK is used internally by `ntdll.RtlDosPathNameToNtPathName_U`.
Some relevant reading on Windows paths:

Might close (untested) #12729
Note:
- This removes checking for illegal characters in `std.os.windows.sliceToPrefixedFileW`, since the previous solution (iterate the whole string and error if any illegal characters were found) was naive and won't work for all path types. This is further complicated by things like file streams (where `:` is used as a delimiter, e.g. `file.ext:stream_name:$DATA`) and things in the device namespace (where a path like `\\.\GLOBALROOT\??\UNC\localhost\C$\foo` is valid despite the `?`s in the path and is effectively equivalent to `C:\foo`). Truly validating paths is complicated and would need to be tailored to each path type. The illegal character checking being removed may open up users to more instances of hitting `OBJECT_NAME_INVALID => unreachable` when using `fs` APIs.

- `bytes` -> `buffer`
- Correct naming consistency between
1. fn argument and doc comment of `(read|write)PackedTwosComplement`
2. fn arguments of `(read|write)PackedTwosComplement` and `(read|write)TwosComplement`
* move `ptrBitWidth` from Arch to Target since it needs to know about the abi
* double isn't always 8 bits
* AVR uses 1-byte alignment for everything in GCC
Also get rid of the TTY wrapper struct, which was exlusively used as a
namespace - this is done by the tty.zig root struct now.
detectTTYConfig has been renamed to just detectConfig, which is enough
given the new namespace. Additionally, a doc comment had been added.
* std.crypto: faster ghash and polyval on WebAssembly
Before: 91 MiB/s
After : 243 MiB/s
Some other platforms might benefit from this, but WebAssembly is
the obvious one (simd128 doesn't make a difference).
Also remove all the wasi-libc files we used to ship, but never compile.
The latest wasi-libc HEAD has an extra commit (a6f871343313220b76009827ed0153586361c0d5), which makes preopen initialization lazy.
Unfortunately, that breaks quite a lot of things on our end. Applications now need to explicitly call __wasilibc_populate_preopens() everywhere when the libc is linked. That can wait after 0.11.
Support for 64-bit counters was a hack built upon the version with
a 32-bit counter, that emulated a larger counter by splitting the
input into large blocks.
This is fragile, particularily if the initial counter is set to
a non-default value and if we have parallelism.
Simply add a comptime parameter to check if we have a 32 bit or a
64 bit counter instead.
Also convert a couple while() loops to for(), and change @panic()
to @compileError().
These operations are constant-time on most, if not all currently
supported architectures. However, even if they are not, this is not
a big deal in the case on Poly1305, as the key is added at the end.
The final addition remains protected.
SalsaPoly and ChaChaPoly do encrypt-then-mac, so side channels would
not leak anything about the plaintext anyway.

After : 4774 MiB/s
* std.crypto.chacha: support larger vectors on AVX2 and AVX512 targets
Ryzen 7 7700, ChaCha20/8 stream, long outputs:

AVX2 : 6023 MiB/s
AVX512 : 8086 MiB/s
Bump the rand.chacha buffer a tiny bit to take advantage of this.
More than 8 blocks doesn't seem to make any measurable difference.
ChaChaPoly also gets a small performance boost from this, albeit
Poly1305 remains the bottleneck.
Generic: 707 MiB/s
AVX2 : 981 MiB/s
AVX512 : 1202 MiB/s
aarch64 appears to generally benefit from 4-way vectorization.
Verified on Apple Silicon, but also on a Cortex A72.
A minimal set of simple, safe functions for Montgomery arithmetic,
designed for cryptographic primitives.
Also update the current RSA cert validation to use it, getting rid
of the FixedBuffer hack and the previous limitations.
Make the check of the RSA public key a little bit more strict by
the way.
