Incorrect trimming of unsigned verinum values was causing the
compilers unsigned constant verinum pow function to give
incorrect results. This patch restores the pow compile time
optimization and fixes the trimming to always leave a single
zero in the MSB.
This patch adds bit based power support to normal expressions.
It also pushes the constant unsigned bit based calculation to
the runtime until the bit based method can be copied to the
compiler. Continuous assignments also need to use this type
of calculation.
There was much redundant code in the compile-tile handling of the
less-then and greater-then of constant expressions, and much of it
was buggy. Unify much of the code and squeeze out the bugs so that
compile-time evaluations come out correctly.
The compiler attempts to precalculate the results of <= comparisons.
Fix a few corner cases where the arguments are signed. Also fix the
important test of constant against non-constant where we try to test
if the non-constant value can possibly make the test fail.
Rework the handling of file names to use a perm_string heap to hold
the file names, instead of the custom file name heap in the lexor.
Also rename the get_line to get_fileline to reflect its real duties.
This latter chage touched a lot of files.
When evaluating bitwise binary expressions at compile time, get the
signed/unsigned padding correct. Pay special attention to the case
of $signed/$unsigned changing the signedness of the operand.
Handle arithmetic right shift during compile time. This comes
up with both the operands are constant expressions. the compiler
is able to evaluate this down to a constant to replace the
expression.
