Generate nuw GEPs for struct member accesses, as inbounds + non-negative
implies nuw.
Regression tests are updated using update scripts where possible, and by
find + replace where not.
This patch makes remaining cases of #embed to emit int type since there
is an agreement to do that for C. C++ is being discussed, but in general
we don't want to produce different types for C and C++.
When #embed appears in an initializer list, we may choose a "fast path"
if the target declaration is a char array. We simply initialize it with
string literal that contains embedded data. However we need to be
careful when checking that we actually can use this "fast path" since
char array may be nested in a struct.
Instead of playing "whack a mole" with places where #embed should be
expanded as comma-separated list, just inject each byte as a token back
into the stream, separated by commas.
This commit implements the entirety of the now-accepted [N3017
-Preprocessor
Embed](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n3017.htm) and
its sister C++ paper [p1967](https://wg21.link/p1967). It implements
everything in the specification, and includes an implementation that
drastically improves the time it takes to embed data in specific
scenarios (the initialization of character type arrays). The mechanisms
used to do this are used under the "as-if" rule, and in general when the
system cannot detect it is initializing an array object in a variable
declaration, will generate EmbedExpr AST node which will be expanded by
AST consumers (CodeGen or constant expression evaluators) or expand
embed directive as a comma expression.
