Adds a preview morph for results of all BitBlt rules.

When first using BitBlt, it wasn't easy to understand the effects of the possible rules on pixel combinating for me.
I implemented two example methods which preview the effects of rule 0 to 41 (these are all, I believe) on quadratic existing forms with colors and 1 bit alpha channel (previewAllBitBltRules uses ToolIcons flag/collection) plus Forms with more alpha values (previewAllBitBltRulesWithAlpha uses ToolIcons flag and a Color red + 0.4 alpha preview). They generate a combined morph for all rules applied on these forms (scaled, because icons are small) and opens it in your hand. Internally, this morph can be generated for any rule, forms and scale. Rules which throw exceptions are replaced with a fallback form.

DecompilerTests:
Restrict the set of methods that are tested to thise in the base packages, excluding extensions from outside packages (this to eliminate errors due to _ assignment, etc).
Beef up checkDecompileMethod: to deal with both OutOfScopeNotification and SyntaxErrorNotification when the decompiler wrongly converts a while loop into a to:do: when the index is used out of scope. Somehow the bytecode set affects which of these errors may be seen.
Eliminate some cases that used to fail and no longer do (principally in ProtoObjectTest testIfNotNil et al).
With these changes I see DecompilerTests all green in both 32-bit trunk and a trunk-derived 64-bit VMMaker image using SistaV1.

Slang: Fix bug in dead-code elimination. In checking whether a name is defined at compile-time or not we have to deal with both TDefineNode and TVarableNode, and so must use nameOrValue, not just value. This affects finalizeReference: which was having variables used in a "cppIf: PharoVM ifTrue: ..." arm deleted since the code generator incorresctly assessed the arm as dead code.

Spur:
Fix image segment storage when there is insufficient contguous space to store teh array of objects to be included in a segment. I wrote the code to answer a suitable error object (a SmallInteger of the required size), but forgot to handle tyhe return, hence causing horrible crashes as the VM attempted to access objects in a SmallInteger. this was Max Leske's failing segment storage test case (a 66.5Mb segment).

Handle the case by introducing a new error code (PrimErrNeedCompact) and having the primitive perform a full GC when it gets the error code, and then to retry segment storage.

Have printFreeTree/printFreeChunk:printAsTreeNode: mark the root node with a '+'.

Fix some slips in free chunk integrity checking.

Clément, I think "lazy" in the comment in SpurMemoryManager>>fullGC should be "eager", right? I'll leave it to you to fix. Also IO don't understand the SpurMemoryManager send in "self SpurMemoryManager globalGarbageCollect.". What's going on here?

Add the STWCPW version of cursor gridding to HandMorph.
It may very well be better to add two instance variables rather than use a couple of properties to hold the state.
There may well be other methods needing changes.
To use:
start by sending gridTo: grid origin: origin to the hand
any subsequent temporaryCursor... will be forced to screeen co-ordinates that are on grid sized steps with an offset of the origin.
gridPointRaw provides the frid limited position of the current hand. Older events are *not* gridded - this is one of the places where there may be more to do.

better performance when making lots of cloned players

by Nicolas Cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at February 13, 2019 04:57 PM

For world-in-world uses such as a Worldlet, displayWorld should act upon the outermost containing world morph. Restore this behavior by un-deprecating PasteUpMorph>>privateOuterDisplayWorld and updating its implementation to match the current PasteUpMorph>>displayWorld, then reverting to the original version of PasteUpMorph>>displayWorld, which sends privateOuterDisplayWorld to the outermost world morph (which usually is self).

Recover quick keyboard access to the classic "install" and "revert" functions on the changed definitions list. Otherwise the new "Ignore (I)" function is selected whether "r" or "i" was pressed on the keyboard.
That function has a hot-key anyway, so move it below the the standard Monticello functions.

Definitively abandon SequenceableCollection equality tests based on equal species.

Old behaviour can still be obtained thru hasEqualElements: but the default is to not try to support such trans-class equality feature because it is much too complex.

Particularly Interval are no more equal to Arrays with same sequence. We can thus optimize hash a bit more and fix the old bugs of equa objects with different hashes. Merge Collections-cbc.813 for this and rehashAll in postscript.

There are not so many classes concerned by this change, mainly RunArray, Interval and LinkedList:

Collection withAllSubclasses select: [:e | [e basicNew species ~= e] on: Error do: [false]]
-> an OrderedCollection(WeakRegistry LinkedList Interval ByteCharacterSet CharacterSetComplement LazyCharacterSet WideCharacterSet ShortRunArray Semaphore Mutex TextLineInterval WeakArray Monitor MCVersionName ByteSymbol WideSymbol)

We will have to change the tests that rely on such equality.

#primitiveArgumentAtAsBytes
#primitiveEnvironmentAtAsBytes
#primitiveEnvironmentAtSymbolAsBytes
#primitiveRealpathAsBytes.

Tweak 1.6: provide a version that does not crash in UnifiedFFI due to obsolete ExternalAddress>>shallowCopy override

by nicolas cellier (nicolas.cellier.aka.nice@gmail.com) at January 11, 2019 09:30 PM

Remove ExternalAddress>>shallowCopy

Once upon a time (2006), this was a fix necessary for FFI, because super shallowCopy would send new: and would fail for an ExternalAddress.

But the implementation of Smallapack calls replaceFrom:to:with:startingAt: which has been defined in UnifiedFFI for writing to the contents pointed by the address (which dereference the NULL pointer, since the copy is not yet initialized, argh).

The best thing is to remove the not-required-anymore fix.

Anyway, if we must fix FFI, we will fix FFI.
Smallapack does not have to fix FFI by itself (this would be necessary only in a hostile or frozen world).

Also handle the cases when module: name has been provided in the legacy FFI pragma.

Now compile the legacy FFI pragma as primitive 120.
It's been a bit hard to guess that the IRPrimitive spec was here specially to provide the ExternalLibraryFunction literal in first position, but once we know it, it's super simple to implement legacy FFI.

TODO: we do not handle yet the case of 16+ arguments in a legacy FFI call.

Clean-up to obtain a minimal POC:

- remove some empty protocols
- rename IR1ArrayForSeveralArguments instead of IR1ArrayForAllArgument because the class could serve in Eliot's suggested implementation (14 regular arguments + 1 array for excess arguments).
- conversely, rename its creation message to create1arrayForSeveralArgumentsNamed:withVars:
- don't force numArgs: to 1 in the (SL)IRByteCodeGenerator, but rather let the choice to the clients that could choose 14+excess.
- and let the comment remind that it is important to provide the EFFECTIVE number of arguments (unless one enjoys VM crash).
- similarly, let the client comment that they MUST provide the effective number of arguments, rather than leaving the dilemna to the reader.

Note that only the two IR* classes need to survive if the changes are integrated back into Pharo8.
All code in SL* methods should be moved to their respective super Opal implementation (as overrides of existing ones).

Provide a workaround for being able to load old source code including pragmas for legacy FFI.

For now, do not compîle those pragmas into primitive 120, as they would with legacy Compiler.
The primary purpose is to load code, not necessarily to have it functional.

Have the temps well ordered (array argument must be first).

Don't reserve temp slots on the CompiledMethod stack for arrayed arguments.
This is useless and risk to exceed maximum frame size.

Variant with SLOpalCompiler
