Generate literal byte arrays wherein \x and \u are just shorthand for sequences of bytes.

What should the escaping and interpolation behavior be?

@StefanKarpinski

Escaping should be:

  1. All traditional C escapes insert the byte they normally represent (in particular, \xff inserts the byte 255).
  2. All Unicode escapes insert their corresponding UTF-8 byte sequence

For interpolation, we should maybe have a bytes(x) function that tries to convert objects to byte arrays and then splices the returned byte array into the middle of the byte array.

Sound reasonable?

And I know just what to do for the default implementation of bytes:

function bytes(x)
  buf = memio()
  write(buf, x)
  takebuf_array(buf)
end

Though it would be much more efficient for byte array interpolation to build its result in a single memio by calling write on each element. In fact we could say the only difference between byte array and string interpolation is that byte arrays use write and strings use print.

Yeah, that seems very reasonable. No reason we shouldn't do it like that.

If the sparse array does not have a concrete index type, then union
splitting occurs over the possible `<:Integer` types permitted by
`SparseMatrixCSC`:

It appears that union splitting over the subtraction by one includes
an `Any` branch that widens the return type of `nnz`. By instead
converting the index type to `Int` before subtracting, type inference
is able to infer that all paths give an `Int` result:

When calling `jl_error()` or `jl_errorf()`, we must check to see if we
are so early in the bringup process that it is dangerous to attempt to
construct a backtrace because the data structures used to provide line
information are not properly setup.

This can be easily triggered by running:

```
julia -C invalid
```

On an `i686-linux-gnu` build, this will hit the "Invalid CPU Name"
branch in `jitlayers.cpp`, which calls `jl_errorf()`.  This in turn
calls `jl_throw()`, which will eventually call `jl_DI_for_fptr` as part
of the backtrace printing process, which fails as the object maps are
not fully initialized.  See the below `gdb` stacktrace for details:

```
$ gdb -batch -ex 'r' -ex 'bt' --args ./julia -C invalid
...
fatal: error thrown and no exception handler available.
ErrorException("Invalid CPU name "invalid".")

Thread 1 "julia" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

process, punting the problem to a later PR that can update guard
conditions within `jl_error*`.

To prevent this, we simply avoid calling `jl_errorf` this early in the
process, punting the problem to a later PR that can update guard
conditions within `jl_error*`.

So for this particular case it achieves roughly 200x speed up.
This is because this commit allows inlining of a call to keyword sorter
as well as removal of `NamedTuple` call.

Especially this commit is composed of the following improvements:
- add early return case for `structdiff`:
  This change improves the return type inference for a case when
  compared `NamedTuple`s are type unstable but there is no difference
  in their names, e.g. given two `NamedTuple{(:a,:b),T} where T<:Tuple{Any,Any}`s.
  And in such case the optimizer will remove `structdiff` and succeeding
  `pairs` calls, letting the keyword sorter to be inlined.
- add special SROA handling for `NamedTuple` generated by keyword sorter:
  With the change on `structdiff`, IR for a call with type-unstable
  keyword arguments after inlining would look like:
  ```
  %1 = tuple(a, b, c)::Tuple{Any, Any, Any}
  %2 = NamedTuple{(:a, :b, :c)(%1)::NamedTuple{(:a, :b, :c), _A} where _A<:Tuple{Any, Any, Any}
  %3  = Core.getfield(%2, :a)::Any
  %4  = Core.getfield(%2, :b)::Any
  %5  = Core.getfield(%2, :c)::Any
  [... other body of the keyword func ...]
  ```
  We can implement a bit hacky special handling within our SROA pass
  that checks if this definition (%2) is partly well-known `NamedTuple`
  construction, where its names are fully known, and also checks if its
  call argument (%1) is fully-known `tuple` call. In a case when the
  length of the `NamedTuple` names and the length of the arguments for
  the `tuple` call, we can safely replace those `getfield` calls with
  the corresponding `tuple` call argument, while letting the later DCE
  pass to delete the constructions of tuple and named-tuple altogether.

With these changes, the IR for the example `NewInstruction` constructor
is fairly optimized, like:
```julia

           NewInstruction(newinst; stmt, type, info)

This commit tries to fix and improve performance for calling keyword
funcs whose arguments types are not fully known but `@nospecialize`-d.

    function NewInstruction(@nospecialize(stmt), @nospecialize(type), @nospecialize(info::CallInfo),
                            line::Union{Int32,Nothing}, flag::Union{UInt8,Nothing})

So for this particular case it achieves roughly 200x speed up.
This is because this commit allows inlining of a call to keyword sorter
as well as removal of `NamedTuple` call.

Especially this commit is composed of the following improvements:
- add early return case for `structdiff`:
  This change improves the return type inference for a case when
  compared `NamedTuple`s are type unstable but there is no difference
  in their names, e.g. given two `NamedTuple{(:a,:b),T} where T<:Tuple{Any,Any}`s.
  And in such case the optimizer will remove `structdiff` and succeeding
  `pairs` calls, letting the keyword sorter to be inlined.
- add special SROA handling for `NamedTuple` generated by keyword sorter:
  With the change on `structdiff`, IR for a call with type-unstable
  keyword arguments after inlining would look like:
  ```
  %1 = tuple(a, b, c)::Tuple{Any, Any, Any}
  %2 = NamedTuple{(:a, :b, :c)(%1)::NamedTuple{(:a, :b, :c), _A} where _A<:Tuple{Any, Any, Any}
  %3  = Core.getfield(%2, :a)::Any
  %4  = Core.getfield(%2, :b)::Any
  %5  = Core.getfield(%2, :c)::Any
  [... other body of the keyword func ...]
  ```
  We can implement a bit hacky special handling within our SROA pass
  that checks if this definition (%2) is partly well-known `NamedTuple`
  construction, where its names are fully known, and also checks if its
  call argument (%1) is fully-known `tuple` call. In a case when the
  length of the `NamedTuple` names and the length of the arguments for
  the `tuple` call, we can safely replace those `getfield` calls with
  the corresponding `tuple` call argument, while letting the later DCE
  pass to delete the constructions of tuple and named-tuple altogether.

With these changes, the IR for the example `NewInstruction` constructor
is fairly optimized, like:
```julia
julia> Base.code_ircode((NewInstruction,Any,Any,CallInfo)) do newinst, stmt, type, info
           NewInstruction(newinst; stmt, type, info)

  And in such case the optimizer will remove `structdiff` and succeeding
  `pairs` calls, letting the keyword sorter to be inlined.
- Tweak the core `NamedTuple{names}(args::Tuple)` constructor so that it
  directly forms `:splatnew` allocation rather than redirects to the
  general `NamedTuple` constructor, that could be confused for abstract
  input tuple type.
- Improve `nfields_tfunc` accuracy as for abstract `NamedTuple` types.
  This improvement lets `inline_splatnew` to handle more abstract
  `NamedTuple`s, especially whose names are fully known but its fields
  tuple type is abstract.

Those improvements are combined to allow our SROA pass to optimize away
`NamedTuple` and `tuple` calls generated for keyword argument handling.

This commit tries to fix and improve performance for calling keyword
funcs whose arguments types are not fully known but `@nospecialize`-d.

The final result would look like (this particular example is taken from
our Julia-level compiler implementation):
```julia
abstract type CallInfo end
struct NoCallInfo <: CallInfo end
struct NewInstruction
    stmt::Any
    type::Any
    info::CallInfo
    line::Union{Int32,Nothing} # if nothing, copy the line from previous statement in the insertion location
    flag::Union{UInt8,Nothing} # if nothing, IR flags will be recomputed on insertion
    function NewInstruction(@nospecialize(stmt), @nospecialize(type), @nospecialize(info::CallInfo),
                            line::Union{Int32,Nothing}, flag::Union{UInt8,Nothing})
        return new(stmt, type, info, line, flag)
    end
end

So for this particular case it achieves roughly 200x speed up.
This is because this commit allows inlining of a call to keyword sorter
as well as removal of `NamedTuple` call.

Especially this commit is composed of the following improvements:
- Add early return case for `structdiff`:
  This change improves the return type inference for a case when
  compared `NamedTuple`s are type unstable but there is no difference
  in their names, e.g. given two `NamedTuple{(:a,:b),T} where T<:Tuple{Any,Any}`s.
  And in such case the optimizer will remove `structdiff` and succeeding
  `pairs` calls, letting the keyword sorter to be inlined.
- Tweak the core `NamedTuple{names}(args::Tuple)` constructor so that it
  directly forms `:splatnew` allocation rather than redirects to the
  general `NamedTuple` constructor, that could be confused for abstract
  input tuple type.
- Improve `nfields_tfunc` accuracy as for abstract `NamedTuple` types.
  This improvement lets `inline_splatnew` to handle more abstract
  `NamedTuple`s, especially whose names are fully known but its fields
  tuple type is abstract.

Those improvements are combined to allow our SROA pass to optimize away
`NamedTuple` and `tuple` calls generated for keyword argument handling.
E.g. the IR for the example `NewInstruction` constructor is now fairly
optimized, like:
```julia
julia> Base.code_ircode((NewInstruction,Any,Any,CallInfo)) do newinst, stmt, type, info
           NewInstruction(newinst; stmt, type, info)

This commit tries to fix and improve performance for calling keyword
funcs whose arguments types are not fully known but `@nospecialize`-d.

The final result would look like (this particular example is taken from
our Julia-level compiler implementation):
```julia
abstract type CallInfo end
struct NoCallInfo <: CallInfo end
struct NewInstruction
    stmt::Any
    type::Any
    info::CallInfo
    line::Union{Int32,Nothing} # if nothing, copy the line from previous statement in the insertion location
    flag::Union{UInt8,Nothing} # if nothing, IR flags will be recomputed on insertion
    function NewInstruction(@nospecialize(stmt), @nospecialize(type), @nospecialize(info::CallInfo),
                            line::Union{Int32,Nothing}, flag::Union{UInt8,Nothing})
        return new(stmt, type, info, line, flag)
    end
end
@nospecialize

So for this particular case it achieves roughly 200x speed up.
This is because this commit allows inlining of a call to keyword sorter
as well as removal of `NamedTuple` call.

Especially this commit is composed of the following improvements:
- Add early return case for `structdiff`:
  This change improves the return type inference for a case when
  compared `NamedTuple`s are type unstable but there is no difference
  in their names, e.g. given two `NamedTuple{(:a,:b),T} where T<:Tuple{Any,Any}`s.
  And in such case the optimizer will remove `structdiff` and succeeding
  `pairs` calls, letting the keyword sorter to be inlined.
- Tweak the core `NamedTuple{names}(args::Tuple)` constructor so that it
  directly forms `:splatnew` allocation rather than redirects to the
  general `NamedTuple` constructor, that could be confused for abstract
  input tuple type.
- Improve `nfields_tfunc` accuracy as for abstract `NamedTuple` types.
  This improvement lets `inline_splatnew` to handle more abstract
  `NamedTuple`s, especially whose names are fully known but its fields
  tuple type is abstract.

Those improvements are combined to allow our SROA pass to optimize away
`NamedTuple` and `tuple` calls generated for keyword argument handling.
E.g. the IR for the example `NewInstruction` constructor is now fairly
optimized, like:
```julia
julia> Base.code_ircode((NewInstruction,Any,Any,CallInfo)) do newinst, stmt, type, info
           NewInstruction(newinst; stmt, type, info)

Check whether it's a simple function call before performing lowering (fixes #14),
and give a better error message when you try to enter something that's not a
function call (fixes #11).

Restore unnesting and use it in ccall. Fixes #8.

`@something` eagerly unwraps any `Some` given to it, while keeping the
variable between its arguments the same. This can be an issue if a
previously unpacked value is used as input to `@something`, leading to a
type instability on more than two arguments (e.g. because of a fallback
to `Some(nothing)`). By using different variables for each argument,
type inference has an easier time handling these cases that are isolated
to single branches anyway.

This also adds some comments to the macro, since it's non-obvious what
it does.

Benchmarking the specific case I encountered this in led to a ~2x
performance improvement on multiple machines.
