The previous version had a fatal flaw: it did ensureCapacity(1) on the
freelist when allocating, but I neglected to consider that you could
free() twice in a row. Silly!
This strategy allocates an intrusive freelist node with every
allocation, big or small. It also does not have the problems with resize
because in this case we can push the upper areas of freed stuff into the
corresponding freelist.
* Export invalidFmtErr
To allow consistent use of "invalid format string" compile error
response for badly formatted format strings.
See https://github.com/ziglang/zig/pull/13489#issuecomment-1311759340.
* Replace format compile errors with invalidFmtErr
- Provides more consistent compile errors.
- Gives user info about the type of the badly formated value.
* Rename invalidFmtErr as invalidFmtError
For consistency. Zig seems to use “Error” more often than “Err”.
* std: add invalid format string checks to remaining custom formatters
* pass reference-trace to comp when building build file; fix checkobjectstep
Instead of making the memory alignment functions more complicated, I
added more API documentation for their existing semantics.

Make `@returnAddress()` return for the BPF target, as the BPF target for
the time being does not support probing for the return address. Stack
traces for the general purpose allocator for the BPF target is also set
to not be captured.
This is a breaking change. Before, usage looked like this:
```zig
const held = mutex.acquire();
defer held.release();
```
Now it looks like this:
```zig
mutex.lock();
defer mutex.unlock();
```
The `Held` type was an idea to make mutexes slightly safer by making it
more difficult to forget to release an aquired lock. However, this
ultimately caused more problems than it solved, when any data structures
needed to store a held mutex. Simplify everything by reducing the API
down to the primitives: lock() and unlock().

Over the last year of using std.log in practice, it has become clear to
me that having the current 8 distinct log levels does more harm than
good. It is too subjective which level a given message should have which
makes filtering based on log level weaker as not all messages will have
been assigned the log level one might expect.
Instead, more granular filtering should be achieved by leveraging the
logging scope feature. Filtering based on a combination of scope and log
level should be sufficiently powerful for all use-cases.
Note that the self hosted compiler has already limited itself to 4
distinct log levels for many months and implemented granular filtering
based on both log scope and level. This has worked very well in practice
while working on the self hosted compiler.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
- hash/eql functions moved into a Context object
- *Context functions pass an explicit context
- *Adapted functions pass specialized keys and contexts
- new getPtr() function returns a pointer to value
- remove functions renamed to fetchRemove
- new remove functions return bool
- removeAssertDiscard deleted, use assert(remove(...)) instead
- Keys and values are stored in separate arrays
- Entry is now {*K, *V}, the new KV is {K, V}
- BufSet/BufMap functions renamed to match other set/map types
- fixed iterating-while-modifying bug in src/link/C.zig

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
It now uses the log scope "gpa" instead of "std".
Additionally, there is a new config option `verbose_log` which enables
info log messages for every allocation. Can be useful when debugging.
This option is off by default.
* move concurrency primitives that always operate on kernel threads to
the std.Thread namespace
* remove std.SpinLock. Nobody should use this in a non-freestanding
environment; the other primitives are always preferable. In
freestanding, it will be necessary to put custom spin logic in there,
so there are no use cases for a std lib version.
* move some std lib files to the top level fields convention
* add std.Thread.spinLoopHint
* add std.Thread.Condition
* add std.Thread.Semaphore
* new implementation of std.Thread.Mutex for Windows and non-pthreads Linux
* add std.Thread.RwLock
