This is (for once) not a breaking changes, instead backends will need to opt in to this change, using the utilities in Compiler.NoMangle. See the js backend for an example of how to do this.
This is the first step to being able to use idris to create libraries usable by other languages.
* Only normalise a search goal if it's fast
While we do end up normalising it anyway on success, there might be
things blocking it that make the intermediate terms very big, so only do
it speculatively to see if it's quick.
* Get information about names in reflection
Currently this is only whether it's a function, or data or type
constructor. I expect more may be useful/possible.
* Implemented %noinline
* Removed trailing spaces.
* Added missing case in Reify FnOpt
* Added error message when both %inline and %noinline are set.
* Added test.
* Changed from perror to error
* Case tree/coverage checking shortcuts
We were calculating some things we didn't need - we can stop computing
the type of a case operator when we know the head, because that's all we
need for coverage checking. We can also abandon checking a left hand
side for coverage purposes if we encounter an empty type. Both of these
can save quite a bit of time in complex cases.
* Normalisation heuristic for pattern variables
If they get bit, fully normalise (like we do with case types) since it's
likely a big term with lots of applications will normalise a lot.
Instead of having UN & RF (& Hole in the near future & maybe even
more later e.g. operator names) we have a single UN constructor
that takes a UserName instead of a String.
UserName is (for now)
```idris
data UserName : Type where
Basic : String -> UserName -- default name constructor e.g. map
Field : String -> UserName -- field accessor e.g. .fst
Underscore : UserName -- no name e.g. _
```
This is extracted from the draft PR #1852 which is too big to easily
debug. Once this is working, I can go back to it.
Why:
* To implement robust cross-project go-to-definition in LSP
i.e you can jump to definition of any global name coming
from library dependencies, as well as from the local project files.
What it does:
* Modify `FC`s to carry `ModuleIdent` for .idr sources,
file name for .ipkg sources or nothing for interactive runs.
* Add `--install-with-src` to install the source code alongside
the ttc binaries. The source is installed into the same directory
as the corresponding ttc file. Installed sources are made read-only.
* As we install the sources pinned to the related ttc files we gain
the versioning of sources for free.
broaden what Names can be reflected and refied
I did not add the Names I wasn't sure how to test but have put placeholders
that produce clearer error messages.
Until now namespaces were stored as (reversed) lists of strings.
It led to:
* confusing code where we work on the underlying representation of
namespaces rather than say what we mean (using `isSuffixOf` to mean
`isParentOf`)
* potentially introducing errors by not respecting the invariant cf.
bug report #616 (but also name generation in the scheme backend
although that did not lead to bugs as it was self-consistent AFAICT)
* ad-hoc code to circumvent overlapping interface implementation when
showing / pretty-printing namespaces
This PR introduces a `Namespace` newtype containing a list of strings.
Nested namespaces are still stored in reverse order but the exposed
interface aims to support programming by saying what we mean
(`isParentOf`, `isApproximationOf`, `X <.> Y` computes to `X.Y`, etc.)
irrespective of the underlying representation.

In a 'Bind', normalise the result of the first action, rather than
quoting the HNF. This improves performance since the HNF could be quite
big when quoted back.
Ideally, we wouldn't have to quote and unquote here, and we can probably
achieve this by tinkering with the evaluator.
This has an unfortunate effect on the reflection002 test, in that the
"typed template Idris" example now evaluates too much. But, I think the
overall performance is too important for the primary motivation
behind elaborator reflection. I will return to this!
Allows quoting a term back to a TTImp. Test reflection007 shows one
possible use for this, building a reflected, type safe, representation
of an expression.
So the type of Elab now gives the expected type that's being elaborated
to, meaning that we can run 'check' in the middle of scripts and use the
result.
Get the names of local variables. and add the ability to look up their
types.
When we get a reflected TTImp, either checking the Goal or looking up a
type, it's not impossible that there'll be some repeated binder names,
so also make sure binders are unique relative to the current context.
Ideally we'd also rename things in the environment to guarantee that all
names are unique, but we don't yet.
(This would be much easier if reflected terms were typed such that they
were well scoped, but that would also make reflection harder to use.)
