(** The AST: syntax with special forms recognised, before typing.
Sugar is gone by this point. [when], [unless], [cond] and [and]/[or] are
desugared into [If] and [Do]; they are compiler special forms until macros
arrive at milestone 5, so there is nothing to preserve for a macroexpander
to see yet.
Types here are *surface* type expressions, not resolved types. [Ptr] and
[Option] are still just names; the checker resolves them. *)

| Quote of string (* 'skip-form — restart names *)
| Var of string
| Do of expr list
| Let of binding list * expr list
| If of expr * expr * expr option
(* The [string option] is a loop label: [(while :outer c ...)]. A keyword in
that position is unambiguous because a loop condition is never one. *)
| While of string option * expr * expr list
(* [(loop [x 0 acc 1] body ...)] and [(recur v ...)]. A loop answers with the
value of its body; a [recur] rebinds every one of the loop's names at once
and jumps back to the top. It is not a tail call and there is no tail-call
elimination anywhere in this compiler — the checker refuses a [recur] that
is not in the loop body's tail position, so what would be a stack overflow
under silent TCO is a compile error here. Each name takes a plain symbol:
a destructuring pattern would turn one name into several and [recur]'s
argument count could no longer be read off the binding vector. *)
| Loop of (string * expr) list * expr list
| Recur of expr list
| Return of expr option
(* Leaving a loop, and starting its next iteration. The [string option] is
the label of the loop meant, and [None] means the innermost. Neither is a
goto: the checker resolves the name against the loops this form is
lexically inside, so control can only leave a loop it is already in —
Odin's restriction, and what keeps it safe. *)

| Arr of expr list (* [0xE6B800FF ...] — a fixed array value *)
(* (array 4 rl/Vector2) — a zeroed fixed array, given its count and its
element type. [n T] is the ordinary *type* syntax and already works
everywhere a type is expected; a [let] binding is the one position with no
type slot, so there [4 rl/Vector2] reads as a two-element [Arr] literal and
fails on an unknown name. This is that position's answer, and it says what
it does rather than looking like a vector of two things. *)
| ArrayOf of texpr (* the whole array type, built by Parse *)

A clause binds a name for the condition, so this cannot be a call. *)

| Signal of sigkind * expr (* (signal c) / (error c) *)
(* (restart-case body (name [p T] body ...) ...) and
(invoke-restart 'name arg ...). Both alter control flow, so neither can be
a call, and a clause binds its parameters — §3. *)

nothing transferring, the program stops. *)

(* ── Instrumenting a form with (pause) ─────────────────────────────── *)
(* [C-u C-c C-c] marks a form so the program stops when it runs — docs/DISCUSS.md
§9. The mark travels beside the source as a position and is applied *here*,
to the AST, rather than being spliced into the text the editor sends: text
would shift every line and column after the insertion, and the error
overlays, the layout, the break loop's frame locations and DWARF all read
those. Applied after parsing, every location is already attached and none of
them moves.
Nothing in the compiler knows about this. [(pause)] is an ordinary prelude
function — [error] under a [restart-case] — so an instrumented body is a
body that calls one more function, and the break loop it lands in is the one
an unhandled condition already builds. *)
(* Rebuild [e] with [f] applied to each expression written directly inside it.
Exhaustive on purpose: a constructor left out would be a form the mark
silently cannot be set inside, which is the kind of hole nobody finds
except by trying it on the one function they wanted to stop in. *)

(* [mark_pause ~line ~col ds] is [ds] with a [(pause)] put in front of whatever

[None] rather than "leave it alone": installing an unmarked body and
answering "ok" would report a breakpoint that is not there, which is the
failure the session refuses everywhere else.
Pre-order, and it stops at the first hit. Desugaring gives several nested
nodes the same location — [(when c a)] becomes an [If] whose else-less
branch is a [Do] at the [when]'s own position — so the outermost of those is
the one the editor pointed at.

on entry, so the call goes at the front of its body. *)
