The mechanical half, ahead of the parser change that needs it. tools/unit-return.py
fills the empty slot with () and rewrites Unit as () wherever a type is spelled --
(Fn [i32] Unit), (Map i32 Unit), a return type written out.
Deciding whether a defn already had a return type is the whole difficulty, and
the script does it the way parse.ml did: is_type_form is transcribed rather than
improved, because being identical to the parser it replaces is what makes the
sweep meaning-preserving. It is re-runnable, so the lanes that branched before
this can have the same pass at merge:
python3 tools/unit-return.py .
python3 tools/unit-return.py --in-strings test/test_flan.ml test/test_acceptance.ml \
test/test_session.ml emacs/test-flan-dev.el emacs/test-flan-mode.el
python3 tools/unit-return.py --raw-ml lib/prelude.ml
python3 tools/unit-return.py --in-html web/index.html
-v logs every defn it saw and what it decided, which is how a sweep of 440 sites
gets reviewed at all. Embedded modes pool a file's type declarations across all
its fragments, because a snippet split across concatenation -- decls ^ "(defn f
[s [u8]] Cursor ...)" -- cannot see the names the other half declared; pooled
names count only in bare-symbol position, for the same reason the prelude's do.
A fragment that cuts off mid-form is skipped rather than guessed at. Five sites
in test_flan.ml still needed a hand, and they are in this commit.
Two things ride along because the sweep needs them: parse.ml reads a lone () as
the return type of a function with no body, which was not a shape the old
optional slot could produce; and the map refusals name () rather than Unit, since
that is now the spelling a caller wrote.
