Since presym is now mandatory, mruby.h includes presym.h so that
MRB_SYM() macros are available everywhere without explicit include.
Remove redundant #include <mruby/presym.h> from all source files.

Add badname_error() and caller_error() helper functions to replace
goto statements used for error handling. These functions are marked
with mrb_noreturn attribute since they call mrb_raise() which never
returns.

There are two issues to be fixed:
- `mrb_irep` could leak if `mrb_calloc()` encountered an out-of-memory exception
- `mrb_proc_merge_lvar()` allocated one extra variable name.
`irep->lv` can always refer to only one less range than `irep->nlocals`.
Also, when `mrb_proc_merge_lvar()` extends `irep->lv`, `mrb_realloc()` with `NULL` has the same behavior as `mrb_malloc()`.
Set `env->cxt` to `NULL` when it is detached from the call frame.
In other words, we can determine if `env->cxt` is `NULL` or not.
Also, `mruby-binding` had been setting `env->cxt` unnecessarily, so this has been fixed.
The method introduced by #5979 causes a fault by swapping classes.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped) bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
```
After applying this patch, a `TypeError` exception will be raised.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Proc; p Object.method(:inspect)'
trace (most recent call last):
[1] -e:1
-e:1:in method: allocation failure of Proc (TypeError)
```
However, if the `mrb_vtype` is the same object, the same care must still be taken as before.
```console
% bin/mruby -e 'Method = Binding; p method(:puts).eval("12345")'
trace (most recent call last):
[1] -e:1
-e:1:in eval: wrong argument type nil (expected Proc) (TypeError)
```
We count `Proc` upper links then check for upper bounds (default:20),
but now we raise an exception as soon as the count exceeds the limit so
that we can avoid traverse unnecessary upper links.
Calling `Class#allocate` with `UnboundMethod#bind_call` usually succeeds without problems.
If this behavior does not make us happy, we can now prohibit it with `MRB_SET_INSTANCE_TT(klass, MRB_TT_UNDEF)`.
At the same time, it applies to the `Binding`, `Complex`, `Data`, `Float`, `Integer`, `Method`, `Rational` and `UnboundMethod` classes.
The Difference
Since Ruby1.9, the keyword arguments were emulated by Ruby using the hash
object at the bottom of the arguments. But we have gradually moved toward
keyword arguments separated from normal (positinal) arguments.
At the same time, we value compatibility, so that Ruby3.0 keyword
arguments are somewhat compromise. Basically, keyword arguments are
separated from positional arguments, except when the method does not
take any formal keyword arguments, given keyword arguments (packed
in the hash object) are considered as the last argument.
And we also allow non symbol keys in the keyword arguments. In that
case, those keys are just passed in the `**` hash (or raise
`ArgumentError` for unknown keys).
The Instruction Changes
We have changed `OP_SEND` instruction. `OP_SEND` instruction used to
take 3 operands, the register, the symbol, the number of (positional)
arguments. The meaning of the third operand has been changed. It is now
considered as `n|(nk<<4)`, where `n` is the number of positional
arguments, and `nk` is the number of keyword arguments, both occupies
4 bits in the operand.
The number `15` in both `n` and `nk` means variable sized arguments are
packed in the object. Positional arguments will be packed in the array,
and keyword arguments will be packed in the hash object. That means
arguments more than 14 values are always packed in the object.
Arguments information for other instructions (`OP_SENDB` and `OP_SUPER`)
are also changed. It works as the third operand of `OP_SEND`. the
difference between `OP_SEND` and `OP_SENDB` is just trivial. It assigns
`nil` to the block hidden arguments (right after arguments).
The instruction `OP_SENDV` and `OP_SENDVB` are removed. Those
instructions are replaced by `OP_SEND` and `OP_SENDB` respectively with
the `15` (variable sized) argument information.
Calling Convention
When calling a method, the stack elements shall be in the order of the
receiver of the method, positional arguments, keyword arguments and the
block argument. If the number of positional or keyword arugument (`n` or
`nk`) is zero, corresponding arguments will be empty. So when `n=0` and
`nk=0` the stack layout (from bottom to top) will be:
+-----------------------+
| recv | block (or nil) |
+-----------------------+
The last elements `block` should be explicitly filled before `OP_SEND`
or assigned to `nil` by `OP_SENDB` internally. In other words, the
following have exactly same behavior:
OP_SENDB clears `block` implicitly:
```
OP_SENDB reg sym 0
```
OP_SEND clears `block` implicitly:
```
OP_LOADNIL R2
OP_SEND R2 sym 0
```
When calling a method with only positional arguments (n=0..14) without
keyword arguments, the stack layout will be like following:
+--------------------------------------------+
| recv | arg1 | ... | arg_n | block (or nil) |
+--------------------------------------------+
When calling a method with arguments packed in the array (n=15) which
means argument splat (*) is used in the actual arguments, or more than
14 arguments are passed the stack layout will be like following:
+-------------------------------+
| recv | array | block (or nil) |
+-------------------------------+
The number of the actual arguments is determined by the length of the
argument array.
When keyword arguments are given (nk>0), keyword arguments are passed
between positional arguments and the block argument. For example, when
we pass one positional argument `1` and one keyword argument `a: 2`,
the stack layout will be like:
+------------------------------------+
| recv | 1 | :a | 2 | block (or nil) |
+------------------------------------+
Note that keyword arguments consume `2*nk` elements in the stack when
`nk=0..14` (unpacked).
When calling a method with keyword arguments packed in the hash object
(nk=15) which means keyword argument splat (**) is used or more than
14 keyword arguments in the actual arguments, the stack layout will
be like:
+------------------------------+
| recv | hash | block (or nil) |
+------------------------------+
Note for mruby/c
When mruby/c authors try to support new keyword arguments, they need
to handle the new meaning of the argument information operand. If they
choose not to support keyword arguments in mruby/c, it just raise
error when `nk` (taken by `(c>>4)&0xf`) is not zero. And combine
`OP_SENDV` behavior with `OP_SEND` when `n` is `15`.
If they want to support keyword arguments seriously, contact me at
<matz@ruby.or.jp> or `@yukihiro_matz`. I can help you.
Previously the following code did not produce the expected results:
```ruby
bx = binding
block = bx.eval("a = 1; proc { a }")
bx.eval("a = 2")
p block.call # Expect 2 but return 1 due to a bug
```
The previous implementation of `Binding#eval` evaluated the code and then merged the top layer variables.
This patch will parse and expand the variable space before making a call to `eval`.
This means that the call to `Binding#eval` will do the parsing twice.
In addition, the following changes will be made:
- Make `mrb_parser_foreach_top_variable()`, `mrb_binding_extract_proc()` and `mrb_binding_extract_env()` functions private global functions.
- Remove the `posthook` argument from `mrb_exec_irep()`.
The `posthook` argument was introduced to implement the `binding` method.
This patch is unnecessary because it uses a different implementation method.
ref #5362fixed#5491
- Added to `mruby-binding-core`
- `Binding#local_variable_defined?`
- `Binding#local_variable_get`
- `Binding#local_variable_set`
- `Binding#local_variables`
- `Binding#receiver`
- `Binding#source_location`
- `Binding#inspect`
- Added to `mruby-proc-binding`
- `Proc#binding`
The reason for separating `Proc#binding` is that core-mrbgems has a method that returns a closure object to minimize possible problems with being able to manipulate internal variables.
By separating it as different mrbgem, each user can judge this problem and incorporate it arbitrarily.
