Here we start restructuring the the schemas YAML such that it
contains a top-level `version` field. In this commit we only modify
the YAML, the build system changes will come later, to avoid
enormous commits.
In this commit we instruct the build system to use the unified schema
files instead of collecting the `TUPLE-TREE-YAML` comments.
The fixes to C++ files are necessary because they depend on the order
of the fields in the schema, which was changed.
The `prettier` binary is now assumed to be installed as part of the
system. No need to manually install it and use the `--prettier`
command-line option.
For now, the only serialization trait we were verifying
a polymorphic TTG type to have was the wrong (the one
that only printed base class's fields).
This commit explicitly disables said serializer and
ensures it's never used.
Here's an illustration of the impact of the changes:
```
model::UpcastableType MyType = getTypeFromSomewhere();
model::Type &View = *MyType;
model::PointerType &Pointer = MyType->asPointer();
serialize(MyType); // Good
serialize(Pointer); // Good
serialize(View); // new: explicit error
// old: only print base type's fields
```
In some of the descriptions of Model fields/methods there are specicial
doxygen commands, such as `\sa`. These show up in python in docstrings
unescaped, causing warnings such as `SyntaxWarning: invalid escape
sequence '\s'`. In order to avoid these, replace the `\` with `\\` which
escapes to a `\`.
Replace the stub implementation of invalidation with the proper
implementation. A ReadPathCache is added to each global so that it can
keep tracks of what target are associated to which read paths.
The previous `makeDiff` implementation did account nor have enough
information to be able to upcast abstract types. This commit introduces
the necessary information for this to happen.
Allow the serialization and deserialization of individual model objects,
this is useful when these need to be exchanged individually across an
IPC boundary.
