General updates to style, the main ones being the following.
Using standard names for type variables:
- K and V for key and value types in map-like structures
- A to F for types of accumulators
- T for most everything else, possibly with a numeric suffix
to distinguish two separate types that nevertheless play
similar roles.
(I left descriptive type var names such as Stream and Store unchanged.)
Adding or expanding descriptions of exported predicates and functions.
Declaring and defining field syntax getters and setters without using ^,
while keeping the use of field syntax, including ^, in the operations'
descriptions.
Defining field syntax operations operations in terms of the
non-field-syntax versions, not vice versa.
Defining function versions of operations in terms of the predicate
versions, not vice versa.

... and obsolete the globals structure in the I/O state.
library/io.m:
Move the implementations of the predicates that read and write bitmaps
to bitmap.m. Leave forward predicates in io.m, but mark them obsolete.
Mark the predicates that get, set and update the globals structure
stored in the I/O state as obsolete.
Export some functionality used by the moved code. The exports are

Improve the names of some internal predicates.
Add some module qualifiers to reduce type ambiguities.
library/Mercury.options:
Disable obsolete warnings for io.m, to allow the initialization
of the I/O state to initialize the globals as well; the globals
are now marked obsolete, but they do still exist.
library/bitmap.m:
Move the predicates for reading and writing bitmaps here from io.m.
Add a "_range" suffix to the names of the predicates that read and write
a range in a bitmap. Without this, both read_bitmap and write_bitmap
existed with *four* arities. Now each of these predicates has only
two arities: one with an explicit stream, and one without.
Document a spot that may need double maintance.
Move the hash functions before the predicates that do I/O.
NEWS:
Announce the changes.
library/bit_buffer.read.m:
Document a spot that may need double maintance.
Fix some comments, and indentation.

Use a mutable to replace the system's only remaining use of
the globals structure in the I/O state.
Stop exporting a predicate used only locally.
Delete unneeded module qualifiers on predicate declarations and
clause heads.
compiler/simplify_goal_call.m:
If the --warn-suspicious-recursion option is set, and if the warning
isn't disabled, generate warnings for two different kinds of suspicious
recursion. They are both related to, but separate from, the warning
we have long generated for infinite recursion, which occurs when
the input args of a recursive call are the same as the corresponding
args in the clause head.
Both kinds suspicious recursion look at the input args of a recursive call
that are NOT the same as the corresponding args in the clause head.
Both require these args to have non-unique modes. (If they have unique
modes, then the depth of the recursion may be controlled by state outside
the view of the Mercury compiler, which means that a warning would be
likely to be misleading.)
The first kind is when all these args use state variable notation.
Most of the time, we use state var notation to denote the data structures
updated by the recursive code; having variables using such notation
*controlling* the recursion is much less common, and much more likely
to be unintended. The motivation for the new option was this infinitely
looping code, which resulted from neglecting to s/[X | Xs]/Xs/ after
cutting-and-pasting the clause head to the recursive call.
p([X | Xs], !S) :-
...,
p([X | Xs], !S).
The other kind of suspicious recursive call we warn about involve
input arguments where the base names of the input arguments (the part
before any numeric suffixes) seem be switched between the clause head
and the recursive call, as here:
q(As0, Bs0, ...) :-
...,
q(Bs1, As, ...).
compiler/mercury_compile_main.m:
Disable style warnings when invoked with --make-optimization-interface
or its transitive variant. Without this, warnings about suspicious
recursion would get reported in such invocations.
Move a test from a callee to a caller to allow the callee to be
less indented.
compiler/options.m:
Export functionality to mercury_compile_main.m to make the above possible.
library/string.m:
Add a predicate to convert a string to *reverse* char list directly.
Note a discrepancy between the documentation and the implementation
of the old predicate the new one is based on (which converts a string
to a forward char list).

Note the new predicate in string.m.

library/bit_buffer.read.m:
library/bit_buffer.write.m:
Add bit_buffers to the standard library. A bit_buffer
provides a bit-oriented interface to byte streams.
These will be used as a base for write_binary and read_binary.
library/stream.m:
Add class which supports reading multiple items at once into
a store.
Clarify the blocking behaviour of `put' and `get'.
Document the behaviour of subsequent calls to `get'
after a call returns eof or an error.
library/bitmap.m:
Add a shorthand for `new(N, no)'.
Add `shrink_without_copying' to destructively shrink a bitmap
without copying the data.
Add a function `append_list' to condense a list of bitmaps.
Improve bounds error messages.
Clean up the handling of zero-length bit ranges.
Add type `bitmap.slice' to represent a segment of a bitmap,
and functions to create slices.
library/io.m:
Change the interface of io.read_bitmap to conform to
the stream.bulk_reader interface, by not returning the
bitmap inside the return code. The bitmap is still
valid (although maybe not completely filled) no matter
what result is returned.
Add io.read_binary_file_as_bitmap/N.
