After fetching a package and applying the filter by deleting files that
are not part of the hash, creates a recompressed $GLOBAL_CACHE/p/$PKG_HASH.tar.gz
Checking this cache before fetching network URLs is not yet implemented.
Now, the return type of functions spawned with `Group.async` and
`Group.concurrent` may be anything that coerces to `Io.Cancelable!void`.
Before this commit, group tasks were the only exception to the rule
"error.Canceled should never be swallowed". Now, there is no exception,
and it is enforced with an assertion upon closure completion.
Finally, fixes a case of swallowing error.Canceled in the compiler,
solving a TODO.
There are three ways to handle `error.Canceled`. In order of most
common:
1. Propagate it
2. After receiving it, io.recancel() and then don't propagate it
3. Make it unreachable with io.swapCancelProtection()
Rename `wait` to `await` to be consistent with Future API. The
convention here is that this set of functionality goes together:
* async/concurrent
* await/cancel
Also rename Select `wait` to `await` for the same reason.
`Group.await` now can return `error.Canceled`. Furthermore,
`Group.await` does not auto-propagate cancelation. Instead, users should
follow the pattern of `defer group.cancel(io);` after initialization,
and doing `try group.await(io);` at the end of the success path.
Advanced logic can choose to do something other than this pattern in the
event of cancelation.
Additionally, fixes a bug in `std.Io.Threaded` future await, in which it
swallowed an `error.Canceled`. Now if a task is canceled while awaiting
a future, after propagating the cancel request, it also recancels,
meaning that the awaiting task will properly detect its own cancelation
at the next cancelation point.
Furthermore, fixes a bug in the compiler where `error.Canceled` was
being swallowed in `dispatchPrelinkWork`.
Finally, fixes std.crypto code that inappropriately used
`catch unreachable` in response to cancelation without even so much as a
comment explaining why it was believed to be unreachable. Now, those
functions have `error.Canceled` in the error set and propagate
cancelation properly.
With this way of doing things, `Group.await` has a nice property: even if
all tasks in the group are CPU bound and without cancelation points, the
`Group.await` can still be canceled. In such case, the task that was
waiting for `await` wakes up with a chance to do some more resource
cleanup tasks, such as canceling more things, before entering the
deferred `Group.cancel` call at which point it has to suspend until the
canceled but uninterruptible CPU bound tasks complete.

`std.Io.tty.Config.detect` may be an expensive check (e.g. involving
syscalls), and doing it every time we need to print isn't really
necessary; under normal usage, we can compute the value once and cache
it for the whole program's execution. Since anyone outputting to stderr
may reasonably want this information (in fact they are very likely to),
it makes sense to cache it and return it from `lockStderrWriter`. Call
sites who do not need it will experience no significant overhead, and
can just ignore the TTY config with a `const w, _` destructure.
This is a little different from how C/C++ compilers do this, but I think it's
justified because it's what users actually *mean* when the use frame pointer
options.
This is another one of those LLVM "CPU" features that have nothing to do with
CPU at all and should really be a TargetMachine option or something. One day
we'll figure out a better way of dealing with these...
Before, this had a subtle ordering bug where duplicate
deps that are specified as both lazy and eager in different
parts of the dependency tree end up not getting fetched
depending on the ordering. I modified it to resubmit lazy
deps that were promoted to eager for fetching so that it will
be around for the builds that expect it to be eager downstream
of this.
