runtime/mercury_string.[ch]:
Define MR_utf8_find_ill_formed_char, a version of MR_utf8_verify

check_well_formedness for C.

... so that compiler optimizations can separate the usual success path,
which does nothing, from the error path, which constructs and throws
an exception.
Modify throw_on_error itself to manually inline is_error, so that
we can (a) eliminate redundant testing for success/failure, and
(b) move all work that is unneeded on the success path out of the
success path. (Marking is_error to be inlined is not sufficient
to do this with our current optimization setup.)
A Mercury foreign_proc needs to be able to return *something* for a

Announce recent system error related changes.
All the strings returned by MR_win32_error_name include a common prefix
"ERROR_". Since there are many (1749) such strings, we can reduce the

prefix.

Document that remove_file may delete empty directories.
library/io.m:
Update comment.
Implement the error handling proposals from February 2022 on the
mercury-users list, and August 2022 on the mercury-reviews list.
We add io.system_error to the public interface of io.m
and document what its foreign representation is for each backend.
We allow io.error to optionally contain an io.system_error value,
and provide predicates to retrieve the io.system_error from an io.error.
The user may then inspect the system error via foreign code.
We also provide a predicate that takes an io.error and returns a name
for the system error it contains (if any). This makes it relatively easy
for Mercury programs to check for specific error conditions.
By returning platform-specific (actually, implementation-dependent)
error names, we are pushing the responsibility of mapping strings to
error conditions onto the application programmer. On the other hand, it
is not practical for us to map all possible system-specific error codes
to some common set of values. We could do it for a small set of common
error codes/exceptions, perhaps.
The standard library will construct io.error values containing
io.system_errors. However, we do not yet provide a facility for user
code to do the same.
library/io.m:
Move io.system_error to the public interface.
Change the internal representation of io.error to support containing
a io.system_error. An io.system_error may originate from an errno
value or a Windows system error code; the constructor distinguishes
those cases.
Add predicates to retrieve a system_error from io.error.
Add predicate to return the name of the system error in an io.error.
Replace make_err_msg with make_io_error_from_system_error.
Replace make_maybe_win32_err_msg with
make_io_error_from_maybe_win32_error.
Delete ML_make_err_msg and ML_make_win32_err_msg macros.

tests/hard_coded/null_char.exp:
Update expected output.
Most modules that imported the old term.m need only a small subset
of its functionality. After this diff, most modules that used to import
term.m will need to import just one more module, and will import many
fewer predicates and functions in total.
library/term_int.m:
A new module carved out of term.m containing the predicates
that recognize terms containing integers, and the functions
that construct such terms.
While this job has *some* similarity to the job of the existing
term_conversion.m module, most modules in the compiler use only one
of those two modules, so merging them would not be a good idea.
library/term_subst.m:
A new module carved out of term.m containing code to do
substitutions and renames of various kinds.
Rename the occurs predicate as var_occurs_in_subst_term,
and occurs_list as var_occurs_in_subst_terms, since the latter
are much more descriptive. Change the argument order to match
the new names (var, subst, term/terms), as the old one did not
even have the term/terms and the substitution next to each other,
even though neither makes sense without the other.
library/term_unify.m:
A new module carved out of term.m containing code to do unifications.
Give all the predicates more meaningful names:
unify_term -> unify_terms
unify_term_list -> unify_term_lists
unify_term_dont_bind -> unify_terms_dont_bind
unify_term_list_dont_bind -> unify_term_lists_dont_bind
list_subsumes -> first_term_list_subsumes_second
library/term_vars.m:
A new module carved out of term.m containing code that find variables
in terms.
Give all the predicates more meaningful names:
vars -> vars_in_term
vars_2 -> vars_in_term_acc
vars_list -> vars_in_terms
contains_var -> term_contains_var
contains_var_list -> terms_contain_var
Don't move the function version of vars_2 to term_vars.m, effectively
deleting it, since operations that update an accumulator are awkward
for functions.
library/term.m:
Keep the moved predicates and functions in term.m, but
- change their implementation to simply call the moved copy, and
- obsolete the original in favor of the moved copy.
Eventually, after either the next release or the release after the next,
we should delete the obsoleted predicates and functions.

If a field of a structure is used more than once in a predicate,
then again, store it in a named variable.
Reorder predicate arguments to put state variables last.
Use io.format instead of sequences of calls to io.write_string.
In declarative_user.m, note a probable bug (in a position where
it is probably rarely stumbled upon).

Specialise the Mercury implementation of file copying in the compiler by
avoiding the use of io.binary_input_stream_foldl_io/5. This allows us to avoid
a higher-order call each time a byte is written and it allows us to use the
unboxed version of the predicate that reads bytes. The other reason for this
change is that we are planning to deprecate (and eventually remove)
io.binary_input_stream_foldl_io/5.
compiler/module_cmds.m:

Add a comment about improving the Mercury implementation of file copying.
Fix spelling in a spot.

Include <wchar.h> for the definitions of dev_t and ino_t when
building for Windows. This became necessary after some recent
code movement in the io.m module.

Add a distinguishing prefix to the names of the function symbols of a type,

are overloaded from ridiculous to slighly less ridiculous :-(
Move related predicate arguments next to each other.
library/io.text_read.m:

library/Mercury.options:
Allow io.text_read.m, instead of io.m, to define an inst for a type

This diff moves this inst definition to io.text_read.m.
library/io.m:
Move the foreign_decl and foreign_code pragmas to the end of this module.
Delete two redundant #includes.
Move the parts of this module that handle errors to just before
the foreign_decls and foreign_codes.
Document why it does not make sense to move the error handling code
to a separate submodule.
Also, move foreign code pieces still in io.m that belong in
previously-carved-out modules to those modules.
library/io.m:
library/io.stream_ops.m:
As above. The new private submodule contains the implementations
(helper predicates) of the operations that
- open and close streams,
- get and set offsets in those streams,
- get and set line numbers on streams,
- return the standard streams, and
- set streams as the current streams.
library/io.m:
Make some previously private includes public, to allow modules outside
of io.m to refer to the C# and Java symbols they define. These includes
are in the second, undocumented interface section of io.m.
Delete the foreign code moved to io.primitives_{read,write}.m,
as well as the foreign code moved to io.stream_ops.m.
Change {get,set}_{line_number,output_line_number}/3, which used
to be implemented directly using foreign_procs, to implement them
in terms of their arity-4 counterparts which take an explicit stream
argument, which now are in io.stream_ops.m. This can yield a slowdown,
but it should be so small as to be unmeasurable on all non-microbenchmark
workloads.

Commit 318e708 deleted the export of the stream_id/0
type, but doing so breaks installation in the Java grade.

issue is resolved.
library/io.m:
library/io.stream_db.m:

browser/browse.m:
browser/browser_info.m:
library/stream.string_writer.m:

library/io.m:
The code shared between C and C# for reading files into strings
uses an array. In the C version, which was written first, the array
elements are UTF-8 code units, and the code treats them as such.
In the C# version, the array elements are code *points*, which
occupy one UTF-16 code unit in *most* cases, but not all, so treating
the number of filled-in positions in the array as a count of code *units*
was a bug, even though it passes most test cases (because most test
inputs contain no code points that need more than one UTF-16 code unit).
Fix this by
- moving the determination of the number of code units in the string
to a predicate that has different implementations in C and C#, and
- having each implementation do what is right for that language.
Document the above, and document which piece of code is used with
which target language.
Also, rename a predicate to avoid a name clash with a related-but-
distinctly-different predicate in the string module.

In the Mercury standard library, every exported predicate or function
has (or at least *should* have) a comment that documents it, including
the meanings of its arguments. About 35-40% of these modules put `'s
(left and right quotes) around the names of the variable representing
those arguments. Some tried to do it consistently (though there were spots
with unquoted or half quoted names), while some did it only a few places.
This is inconsistent: we should either do it everywhere, or nowhere.
This diff makes it nowhere, because
- this is what the majority of the standard library modules do;
- this is what virtually all of the modules in the compiler, profiler,
deep_profiler etc directories do;
- typing all those quotes when adding new predicates in modules that
follow this convention is a pain in the ass; and because
- on many modern terminals, `' looks non-symmetrical and weird.
Likewise, the comment explaining a predicate often started with
% `predname(arguments)' returns ...
This diff deletes these quotes as well, since they add nothing useful.
This diff does leave in place quotes around code fragments, both terms
and goals, where this helps delineate the boundaries of that fragment.
