Add a new foreign type assertion `word_aligned_pointer' that asserts the
necessary conditions for the compiler to use the direct argument functor
representation on constructors of a single argument of that foreign type.
The conditions on the values of the foreign type are
- the values must fit in a single word
- the values must be clear in the tag bits ("word-aligned")
The first condition is the same as that asserted by
`can_pass_as_mercury_type' so we let `word_aligned_pointer' imply
`can_pass_as_mercury_type'.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Add `foreign_type_word_aligned_pointer' option.
Wrap list(foreign_type_assertions) in a new type to dissuade
direct checks for individual list members.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Parse `word_aligned_pointer' as a foreign type assertion.
compiler/hlds_data.m:
Add predicates for checking foreign type assertions. The
implication word_aligned_pointer => can_pass_as_mercury_type is
implemented in a single place.
compiler/make_tags.m:
Take `word_aligned_pointer' assertions into consideration when
deciding if a constructor can use the direct argument functor
representation.
Clarify the code.
