Major change to how `deftype` shows up in our code:
- the decompiler will no longer emit the `offset-assert`,
`method-count-assert`, `size-assert` and `flag-assert` parameters. There
are extremely few cases where having this in the decompiled code is
helpful, as the types there come from `all-types` which already has
those parameters. This also doesn't break type consistency because:
- the asserts aren't compared.
- the first step of the test uses `all-types`, which has the asserts,
which will throw an error if they're bad.
- the decompiler won't emit the `heap-base` parameter unless necessary
now.
- the decompiler will try its hardest to turn a fixed-offset field into
an `overlay-at` field. It falls back to the old offset if all else
fails.
- `overlay-at` now supports field "dereferencing" to specify the offset
that's within a field that's a structure, e.g.:
```lisp
(deftype foobar (structure)
((vec vector :inline)
(flags int32 :overlay-at (-> vec w))
)
)
```
in this structure, the offset of `flags` will be 12 because that is the
final offset of `vec`'s `w` field within this structure.
- **removed ID from all method declarations.** IDs are only ever
automatically assigned now. Fixes#3068.
- added an `:overlay` parameter to method declarations, in order to
declare a new method that goes on top of a previously-defined method.
Syntax is `:overlay <method-name>`. Please do not ever use this.
- added `state-methods` list parameter. This lets you quickly specify a
list of states to be put in the method table. Same syntax as the
`states` list parameter. The decompiler will try to put as many states
in this as it can without messing with the method ID order.
Also changes `defmethod` to make the first type definition (before the
arguments) optional. The type can now be inferred from the first
argument. Fixes#3093.

This renames the method object in `defmethod`s to `this` and adds
detection for the `set-time!` and `time-elapsed?` macros.
Definitely my biggest PR yet...
- state handlers that are not inlined lambdas have smarter type
checking, getting rid of 99.9% of the casts emitted (they were not
useful)
- art groups were not being properly linked to their "master" groups.
- `max` in `ja` in Jak 2 was not being detected.
Another huge PR...
Previously, `object` and `none` were both top-level types. This made
decompilation rather messy as they have no LCA and resulted in a lot of
variables coming out as type `none` which is very very wrong and
additionally there were plenty of casts to `object`. This changes it so
`none` becomes a child of `object` (it is still represented by
`NullType` which remains unusable in compilation).
This change makes `object` the sole top-level type, and the type that
can represent *any* GOAL object. I believe this matches the original
GOAL built-in type structure. A function that has a return type of
`object` can now return an integer or a `none` at the same time.
However, keep in mind that the return value of `(none)` is still
undefined, just as before. This also makes a cast to `object`
meaningless in 90% of the situations it showed up in (as every single
thing is already an `object`) and the decompiler will no longer emit
them. Casts to `none` are also reduced. Yay!
Additionally, state handlers also don't get the final `(none)` printed
out anymore. The return type of a state handler is completely
meaningless outside the event handler (which is return type `object`
anyway) so there are no limitations on what the last form needs to be. I
did this instead of making them return `object` to trick the decompiler
into not trying to output a variable to be used as a return value
(internally, in the decompiler they still have return type `none`, but
they have `object` elsewhere).
Fixes#1703Fixes#830Fixes#928
This PR adds detection of the `launch-particles` and `seconds-per-frame`
macros to the decompiler, removing a lot of bloat and hiding many
process register uses.
I also added `og:preserve-this` comments to as many manual patches and
comments as I could, which will soon be used in conjunction with CI to
hopefully catch any regressions in future big decomp update PRs.
I have some concerns about the `launch-particles` macro (more details in
`sparticle-launcher.gc`) , but thus far, I have not seen anything break
yet.

Fixes empty boxed arrays of strings breaking some decomp
(`ctywide-speech` and `race-info`).
Adds `decomp-as` tag to decompiler types so that the static data
decompiler can use macros like `meters` and `seconds` on fields that
aren't of type `meters` or `time-frame`.
Adds `override` tag to decompiler types which overrides the type of
field with that name. The type must be a child type of the original
field's type (or the same type, but why would you do this?).
Fixes the camera being offset for `drillmtn` after loading `palout`
once.
This is a huge refactor sadly.
Updates the decompiler for the new format and there's new macros. This
new format should be easier to read/parse.
Also rewrote `sp-init-fields!` (both jak 1 and 2) from assembly to GOAL.
Hopefully I did not miss any regressions in Jak 1/2 while updating the
files, it's a lot.
- started documenting the files I glossed over, some are totally done,
others are just partially done
- I changed the decompiler to automatically initialize the
art-group-info from the json file. This makes updating gsrc, even a
single file at a time, have consistent naming
- Though I disabled this functionality for jak 1, as I have no idea if
using the ntsc art groups will cause a regression for different versions
- fix indentation for docstrings -- it still doesn't look great, but
this is now a formatting concern, rather than the docstring having a
bunch of happen-stance leading whitespace.
A big one...
I figure even if we would like to change the way the particle/scene code
is output -- it'd be easier to find patterns with it all decompiled.
I've updated my script so it can easily be used to mass update these
files:
```bash
task update-gsrc-glob GLOB="**/*-part*.gc"
```
> for example will update gsrc files with `part` in their name -- if
they are in ref tests (so uncompleted ones aren't touched)
I found a few issues along the way that I'll have to make issues for
soon.
Mostly easy / particle def files. I did a bit in `ruins` but CFG
failures and missing `drawable` functions make it untestable for now so
I've put that on pause.
