Refactor get_uplc_type to account for constr types that don't exactly resolve to a uplc type
Check arg_stack in uplc generator has only 1 argument at the end of the generation
warning fixes
Before this commit, we would parse 'Pair' as a user-defined
data-types, and thus piggybacking on that whole record system. While
perhaps handy for some things, it's also semantically wrong and
induces a lot more complexity in codegen which now needs to
systematically distinguish every data-type access between pairs, and
others.
So it's better to have it as a separate expression, and handle it
similar to tuples (since it's fundamentally a 2-tuple with a special
serialization).
And a few more tests along the way for others. Note that it is important here that we try to parse for a 'Pair' BEFORE we try to parse for a constructor pattern. Because the latter would swallow any Pair pattern.
The main trick here was transforming Assignment
to contain `Vec<UntypedPattern, Option<Annotation>>`
in a field called patterns. This then meant that I
could remove the `pattern` and `annotation` field
from `Assignment`. The parser handles `=` and `<-`
just fine because in the future `=` with multi
patterns will mean some kind of optimization on tuples.
But, since we don't have that optimization yet, when
someone uses multi patterns with an `=` there will be an
error returned from the type checker right where `infer_seq`
looks for `backpassing`. From there the rest of the work
was in `Project::backpassing` where I only needed to rework
some things to work with a list of patterns instead of just one.
The 3rd kind of assignment kind (Bind) is gone and now reflected through a boolean parameter. Note that this parameter is completely erased by the type-checker so that the rest of the pipeline (i.e. code-generation) doesn't have to make any assumption. They simply can't see a backpassing let or expect.
We'll piggyback on the tracing capabilities of the VM to provide labelling for prop tests. To ensure we do not interfere with normal traces, we only count traces that starts with a NUL byte as label. That convention is assumed to be known of the companion fuzz library that should then provide the labelling capabilities as a dedicated function.
Somehow, these have always been right-associative, when the natural thing to expect is left-associativity. It now matters when trying to crawl down binary tree to display them properly.
This is very very rough at the moment. But it does a couple of thing:
1. The 'ArgVia' now contains an Expr/TypedExpr which should unify to a Fuzzer. This is to avoid having to introduce custom logic to handle fuzzer referencing. So this now accepts function call, field access etc.. so long as they unify to the right thing.
2. I've done quite a lot of cleanup in aiken-project mostly around the tests and the naming surrounding them. What we used to call 'Script' is now called 'Test' and is an enum between UnitTest (ex-Script) and PropertyTest. I've moved some boilerplate and relevant function under those module Impl.
3. I've completed the end-to-end pipeline of:
- Compiling the property test
- Compiling the fuzzer
- Generating an initial seed
- Running property tests sequentially, threading the seed through each step.
An interesting finding is that, I had to wrap the prop test in a similar wrapper that we use for validator, to ensure we convert primitive types wrapped in Data back to UPLC terms. This is necessary because the fuzzer return a ProtoPair (and soon an Array) which holds 'Data'.
At the moment, we do nothing with the size, though the size should ideally grow after each iteration (up to a certain cap).
In addition, there are a couple of todo/fixme that I left in the code as reminders of what's left to do beyond the obvious (error and success reporting, testing, etc..)
The parameter is special as it takes no annotation but a 'via' keyword followed by an expression that should unify to a Fuzzer<a>, where Fuzzer<a> = fn(Seed) -> (Seed, a). The current commit only allow name identifiers for now. Ultimately, this may allow full expressions.
Note that the formatter rewrite parens-block sequences as curly-block
sequences anyway. Albeit weird looking syntax, they are valid
nonetheless.
I also clarified a bit the hints and description of the
'illegal::return' error as it would mistakenly say 'function' instead
of 'block'.
- do not erase sequences if the sole expression is an assignment
- emit parse error if an assignment is assigned to an assignment
- do not allow assignments in logical op chains
- Add support to the formatter for these doc comments
- Add a new field to `Arg` `doc: Option<String>`
- Don't attach docs immediately after typechecking a module
- instead we should do it on demand in docs, build, and lsp
- the check command doesn't need to have any docs attached
- doing it more lazily defers the computation until later making
typechecking feedback a bit faster
- Add support for function arg and validator param docs in
`attach_module_docs` methods
- Update some snapshots
- Add put_doc to Arg

Bumped into this randomly. We do correctly parse escape sequence, but
the format would simply but the unescaped string back on save. Now it
properly re-escapes strings before flushing them back. I also removed
the escape sequence for 'backspace' and 'new page' form feed as I
don't see any use case for those in an Aiken program really...
