🤷 (Brian Shirai)
Start updating README. (Brian Shirai)
Move more of Environment into Machine. (Brian Shirai)
Removed C++ tests. (Brian Shirai)
Maintaining these tests for a decade, I can confidently state they don't
add enough value to compensate for the maintenance cost. As more C++
code (eg primitives, object classes) are replaced by instructions, the
value of the tests diminishes even more.
Removed configure step for machine tests. (Brian Shirai)
Moved locks to Machine. (Brian Shirai)
Removed remnants of C++ tests. (Brian Shirai)
Boot and halt on main thread. (Brian Shirai)

This doesn't work yet on macOS 😭

clang: error: unsupported option '-fsanitize=leak' for target 'x86_64-apple-darwin19.2.0'
Fix warning on Ubuntu Bionic. (Brian Shirai)
machine/ffi_util.cpp:53:10: warning: In the GNU C Library, "major" is defined by <sys/sysmacros.h>.
For historical compatibility, it is currently defined by <sys/types.h> as well, but we plan to
remove this soon. To use "major", include <sys/sysmacros.h> directly. If you did not intend to
use a system-defined macro "major", you should undefine it after including <sys/types.h>.
[-W#pragma-messages]
Switch to AddressSanitizer. (Brian Shirai)
Enhance --sanitize configure option. (Brian Shirai)
Exclude sysmacros.h on macOS. (Brian Shirai)
Clean up some Valgrind-exposed memory leaks. (Brian Shirai)
Use unsynchronized set during GC. (Brian Shirai)
We only run one thread during GC, so we don't need synchronized (un)set.
Track code return value for GC. (Brian Shirai)
Rework extended header & memory handle mechanisms. (Brian Shirai)
Added ref count instructions. (Brian Shirai)

Start to clean up 'Machine'. (Brian Shirai)
Checkpoint for GC after saving object reference. (Brian Shirai)

are trying to trace if we put it where we can see it first.

Fixed building OSX packages. (Brian Shirai)

Re-disable Travis OSX. STDIN is not a TTY. (Brian Shirai)
https://travis-ci.org/rubinius/rubinius/jobs/167911681#L5416

Updated gems. (Brian Shirai)
More instruction tests. (Brian Shirai)
More interpreter tests. (Brian Shirai)
Tests for check_frozen instruction. (Brian Shirai)
Moved builtin/ to class/. (Brian Shirai)
The name 'builtin' is not very descriptive. Now that we are going to have
managed objects that are both object-oriented and simple data, and both are
'built in', we need more descriptive names for the directories, so the new
names are 'class' and 'data', which parallels the names used in the code.
Fixed path to website releases data. (Brian Shirai)
For Rubinius build on aarch64-linux-gnu (Raspberry Pi 3). (#3705) (medols)

Don't use enum as last arg for varargs. /ht @heftig. (Brian Shirai)
Fixed Bundler, brew wars. (Brian Shirai)
Fixed setting ThreadGroup for signal handler Thread. (Brian Shirai)
In Rubinius, trapped signals are handled in a dedicated Thread.

In Ruby, the Thread where a signal is processed isn't defined, but the
assumption is that the signal handler runs in Thread.main (as observed in Ruby
behavior).

Also undefined in Ruby is what ThreadGroup a Thread created in a signal
handler should be added to. Going with the assumption that the signal handler
proc is run in Thread.main, we assume the new Thread should be added to
Thread.main.group.

We now set the signal handler Thread's group to the same group as Thread.main,
so that threads created in a signal handler proc have a group and are added to
a group.

Better backtrace rendering for copy-paste. (Brian Shirai)
Rubinius renders backtraces with the receiver+method right justified and the
source location trailing. Previously, the source location was split when
exceeding the available terminal width to avoid cluttering the left side where
the receiver+method was rendered to aid visibility of the most important
backtrace information.

Unfortunately, splitting up the source location makes copy-pasting the path to
edit a source file very tedious.

Now, the source location is rendered as an unbroken sequence of characters but
starting on a new line if the total backtrace line exceeds the terminal width.
This preserves the readability of the receiver+method, while also preserving
the ability to copy-paste the source location.

Improved backtrace rendering contrast. (Brian Shirai)
Rubinius introduced colorized backtraces to improve readability.

Unfortunately, color is problematic due to the perception of colors and the
interaction of color with terminal colors, which something which Rubinius has
no control over.

The goal of readability in backtraces is an important one. There are two
primary pieces of information in each backtrace line: 1. receiver+method; and
2. source code location, file+line number.

The current rendering approach is to bold the receiver+method and separate the
source line on a new line when the total backtrace line exceeds the terminal
width. This provides contrast that improves scanning the backtrace on primary
information, the receiver+method, and easily selecting secondary information,
the source location, when necessary.

Align method names in backtrace. (Brian Shirai)
It is a very common convention (in Rubinius, at least) to fully render a
method as 'A::B::C{#, .}name', where A::B:: is an optional namespace and C is
the class of the receiver and # indicates an instance method, while .
indicates a module method.

As such, this convention carries over without much question to rendering
backtraces. However, the context of consuming a backtrace requires different
conventions, but ones that are not foreign.

So, for rendering backtraces, the conventions are retained but the ordering is
changed slightly to improve processing the information. There are now four
basic components to a backtrace line (for an object-oriented method): 1. the
method name; 2. the instance/module indicator; 3. the fully-scoped receiver
name; and 4. the source code location.

The first thing that needs to be located and digested is the method name, so
the method names are right aligned allowing both easily reading the method
name and quick indexing for the second important piece of information, the
receiver name. The source location trails and may be on a new line if the
total backtrace line rendering exceeds the terminal width.

This rendering better orders information in the backtrace based on the
hierarchy of important information (method name > instance/module indicator >
receiver name > source location). It also balances the tensions between making
an individual line of a backtrace readable and making the whole thing
scannable and readable. When rendering the full method name as A::B::C#name,
the variability of the A::B::C component pushed many names too far to the
right, leaving a very jagged left edge that is more difficult to scan, as well
as burying the method name (the primary element) embedded in the middle of a
bunch of character noise.

Fixed rendering method name. (Brian Shirai)
Catch C++ exceptions sooner. (Brian Shirai)
We attempt to catch C++ exceptions as close to where they occur as possible.
This means at the last executed managed code (eg method) so that as much
context as possible can be given.
Added extra C++ exception catch to new interpreter. (Brian Shirai)
Use llvm-config --libs instead of --libfiles. (Brian Shirai)
fix case where IO#gets blocks forever on read to char boundary (Chuck Remes)
This was a tough one. WEBrick would hang when reading an HTTP
header. The cause was that IO::EachReader#read_to_separator_with_limit
blocked forever trying to "peek ahead" to ensure we are reading
to the end of a proper character boundary. In this case the socket
had no more data to recv but it also does not set EOF, therefore
the read blocked indefinitely. The simple fix was to move to a
non-blocking read and skip the read entirely if the string
already had a valid encoding. However, this broke several specs
for reading multi-byte chars. To resolve that problem required
making sure that when read_nonblock returned an empty buffer that
this buffer was set to ASCII_8BIT instead of whatever the default
external coding was set to (usually UTF-8). The fixes are all
relatively simple but it took many hours to chase this down and
figure out the minimal approach to fix it.
DRY up allocation of 8-bit string buffers (Chuck Remes)

add test for instructions::rotate (Chuck Remes)
add work in progress test for instructions::send_vcall (Chuck Remes)
better tests for instructions::send_stack (Chuck Remes)
The test_send_stack_execute_returns_null tests the situation where
no value is returned from the method, e.g. nullptr.

Second test test_send_stack_method_no_method_error tests code path
where the method is not found and raises a NoMethodError. This had
the side effect of leaving arguments on the stack. This is a
problem that requires a bug fix to the instruction.
