This allows better stacktraces when manually intercepting
signals to clean up resources. Also allows functionality
from Common Lisp's unwind-protect, such as calling cleanup code
while unwindinding the stack, restarting on certain signals, and
just in general having more control over signal and signal propagation.
Also fix a bug encountered while implementing with-resource in the
compiler. Desturcturing arguments that were not the last argument
would often result in bad code generation, as slots used to destructure
the earlier arguments would invalidate the later parameters. This is
fixed by allocating all named parameters before doing any destructuring.
janet_vm_return_reg should only be set when janet_continue
is called. Otherwise, a panic may dump it's error message in
the wrong place, resulting in undefined behavior (often showing
the last return value or worse, segfaulting).
A consistent style should help with contributors and
readability. We use astyle as the formatter as can make a pretty
good approximation of the current style and my preferred style.
Astyle can be found at http://astyle.sourceforge.net/astyle.html
to make janet function calls easier and faster from C (still
needs an object pool for fibers, though). Fix bug in scan-number
and add many more peg tests.
Error handling is implemented with setjmp/longjmp so code
can be more concise. This required a very large but straight forward refactor for all
of the libraries.
Replace the oparg macro with 5 named virtual registers, combine
pc++ with vm_next() macro to be more terse, and move setup and
teardown logic of janet_continue into a separate function.
These changes are preparation for using setjmp/longjmp to do
error handling in the VM. Introducing longjmp for error handling in
the VM would allow it to be used in the C API, which could result in
simpler, more compact code.
remove some complexity and unexpected behavior around numbers in
general as all numbers are the same number type, IEEE 754 double
precision numbers. Also update examples and tests, some of which were
out of date.
Some more testing may be needed for new changes to numbers.
