- Closes#2668
This pr migrates the old named application syntax to the new one. In
order to migrate a juvix file to the new syntax it suffices to run the
formatter.
After the next release, we should completely remove the support for the
old syntax.
## Other changes
I've improved Scope negative tests. Previously, when a negative test
failed, you could only see the title of the test and the message
"Incorrect Error", as well as the Haskell file and line where the test
is defined.
This is extremely incovenient because you have to go to the haskell test
file, go to the line where the error is defined, look at the name of the
file and then visit that file. Moreover, you need to manually run the
scoper on that file to see the error that was returned.
I've fixed that and it now shows all relevant information. Example:
I've implemented this only using the `Generic` instance for the
`ScoperError` type, so doing something similar for the rest of negative
tests should be straightforward.
This PR adds a version number to the module name of the
`PackageDescription` module. This allows us to change the Package file
format in a backwards compatible way in the future.
Now the simplest Package.juvix file looks like:
```
module Package;
import PackageDescription.V1 open;
package : Package := defaultPackage;
```
## Adding new versions
The idea is that new versions of the PackageDescription format will be
added as files of the form:
include/package/PackageDescription/Vx.juvix
The correspondence between a version of the PackageDescription file and
the package type name is recorded in
[`packageDescriptionTypes`](9ba869d836/src/Juvix/Compiler/Pipeline/Package/Loader.hs (L15)).
The `package` identifier type must come from **one** of the versions
of the PackageDescription module.

* https://github.com/anoma/juvix/issues/2336
This PR adds the package file loading function, including a file
evaluation effect. It integrates this with the existing `readPackage`
function and adds tests / smoke tests.
## Package.juvix format
Instead of `juvix.yaml` (which is still supported currently) users can
now place a `Package.juvix` file in the root of their project. The
simplest `Package.juvix` file you can write is:
```
module Package;
import PackageDescription open;
package : Package := defaultPackage;
```
The
[PackageDescription](35b2f618f0/include/package/PackageDescription.juvix)
module defines the `Package` type. Users can use "go-to definition" in
their IDE from the Package file to see the documentation and
definitions.
Users may also import `Stdlib.Prelude` in their Package file. This is
loaded from the global project. No other module imports are supported.
Notes:
* If a directory contains both `Package.juvix` and `juvix.yaml` then
`Package.juvix` is used in preference.
## Default stdlib dependency
The `Dependency` type has a constructor called `defaultStdlib`. This
means that any project can use the compiler builtin standard library
dependency. With `juvix.yaml` this dependency is only available when the
`dependencies` field is unspecified.
```
module Package;
import PackageDescription open;
package : Package := defaultPackage { dependencies := [defaultStdlib] };
```
## Validation
As well as the standard type checking validation that the Juvix compiler
provides additional validation is made on the file.
* The Package module must contain the identifier `package` and it must
have type `Package` that's obtained from the global `PackageDescription`
module.
* Every dependency specified in the Package.juvix must be unique.
* Closes https://github.com/anoma/juvix/issues/2336
## Examples
### Package with name and version
```
module Package;
import PackageDescription open;
package : Package :=
defaultPackage {name := "a-package";
version := mkVersion 0 1 0};
```
### Package with GitHub dependency
```
module Package;
import PackageDescription open;
package : Package :=
defaultPackage {name := "a-package";
version := mkVersion 0 1 0;
dependencies := [defaultStdlib;
github (org := "anoma";
repo := "juvix-containers";
ref := "v0.7.1")]};
```
## Package with main and buildDir fields
```
module Package;
import Stdlib.Prelude open;
import PackageDescription open;
package : Package :=
defaultPackage {name := "a-package";
version := mkVersion 0 1 0;
dependencies := [defaultStdlib;
github (org := "anoma";
repo := "juvix-containers";
ref := "v0.7.1")];
buildDir := just "/tmp/build";
main := just "HelloWorld.juvix"
};
```
