Zig 0.16 changed clocks/timestamps. Our migration to Zig 0.16 took the path of
least resistance. For example, we kept 'monotonic' and 'real' even though Zig
0.16 renamed them to 'boot' and 'clock'
This commit tries to standardize all timestamp usage to: lp.datetime.timestamp
and lp.datetime.milliTimestamp using the new zig 0.16 names ('boot' and 'clock')
Built against https://github.com/lightpanda-io/zig-v8-fork/tree/zig-0.16 but
it doesn't require a new v8 build.
Built against https://github.com/lightpanda-io/boringssl-zig/tree/zig-0.16
since the current fork we point to isn't updated.
A global std.Io instance, lp.io. Way easier this way and requires 0 changes to
our libcurl integration / event loop.
Network code uses a new layer that does what Zig 0.15's posix package used to
do. Again, quicker migration that way. But, as long as we have the global IO,
and given the half-baked nature of networking in std.Io 0.16, this just makes
sense. Things can be migrated as needed.
The std.time.* -> std.Io.Timestamp/Clock/Duration resulted in _a lot_ of
changes. ArrayList = .{} -> ArrayList -> .empty also resulted in a lot of
changes, but that's obviously superficial. As is the trimLeft/trimRight ->
trimStart/trimEnd rename.
Locking adopt the `Uncancelable` variants, e.g. mutex.lockUncancelable() to
preserve the error-free signature (and, because cancellation would be something
we'd have to put more thought into).
std.json.ObjectMap is now unmanaged, so the allocator had to be passed along.
However, there's still a deprecated managed variant of MemoryPool, so I switched
to it (we can do a small follow up PR to move to the unmanaged after).
I tried use_llvm = false, but it locks my computer, consuming RAM until MacOS
gives me a popup I've never seen before, begging me to start killing processes.
Agent and the networking stuff saw the most significant changes.
@import("lightpanda") where needed.
Would also like to do this for String, Page, Session and js which all stand out
as types that are use across the codebase.
I know that a few devs are doing this in new work and I haven't heard anyone
voice an objection.
