Recently, `TestRubyLiteral#test_float` fails randomly.
```
1) Error:
TestRubyLiteral#test_float:
ArgumentError: SyntaxError#path changed: "(eval at /home/chkbuild/chkbuild/tmp/build/20240527T050036Z/ruby/test/ruby/test_literal.rb:642)"->"(eval at /home/chkbuild/chkbuild/tmp/build/20240527T050036Z/ruby/test/ruby/test_literal.rb:642)"
```
https://rubyci.s3.amazonaws.com/s390x/ruby-master/log/20240527T050036Z.fail.html.gz
According to Launchable, the first failure was on Apr 30.
This is just when 528c4501f4 was
committed. I don't know if the change is really the cause, but I want to
revert it once to see if the random failure disappears.
With embedded strings we often have some space left in the slot, which
we can use to store the string Hash code.
It's probably only worth it for string literals, as they are the ones
likely to be used as hash keys.
We chose to store the Hash code right after the string terminator as to
make it easy/fast to compute, and not require one more union in RString.

They were initially made frozen to avoid false positives for cases such
as:
str = str.dup if str.frozen?
But this may cause bugs and is generally confusing for users.
[Feature #20205]
Co-authored-by: Jean Boussier <byroot@ruby-lang.org>
This patch adds `int line_count` field to `rb_ast_body_t` structure.
Instead, we no longer cast `script_lines` to Fixnum.
## Background
Ref https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10618
In the PR above, we have decoupled IMEMO from `rb_ast_t`.
This means we could lift the five-words-restriction of the structure
that forced us to unionize `rb_ast_t *` and `FIXNUM` in one field.
## Relating refactor
- Remove the second parameter of `rb_ruby_ast_new()` function
## Attention
I will remove a code that assigns -1 to line_count, in `rb_binding_add_dynavars()`
of vm.c, because I don't think it is necessary.
But I will make another PR for this so that we can atomically revert
in case I was wrong (See the comment on the code)
This patch removes the `VALUE flags` member from the `rb_ast_t` structure making `rb_ast_t` no longer an IMEMO object.
## Background
We are trying to make the Ruby parser generated from parse.y a universal parser that can be used by other implementations such as mruby.
To achieve this, it is necessary to exclude VALUE and IMEMO from parse.y, AST, and NODE.
## Summary (file by file)
- `rubyparser.h`
- Remove the `VALUE flags` member from `rb_ast_t`
- `ruby_parser.c` and `internal/ruby_parser.h`
- Use TypedData_Make_Struct VALUE which wraps `rb_ast_t` `in ast_alloc()` so that GC can manage it
- You can retrieve `rb_ast_t` from the VALUE by `rb_ruby_ast_data_get()`
- Change the return type of `rb_parser_compile_XXXX()` functions from `rb_ast_t *` to `VALUE`
- rb_ruby_ast_new() which internally `calls ast_alloc()` is to create VALUE vast outside ruby_parser.c
- `iseq.c` and `vm_core.h`
- Amend the first parameter of `rb_iseq_new_XXXX()` functions from `rb_ast_body_t *` to `VALUE`
- This keeps the VALUE of AST on the machine stack to prevent being removed by GC
- `ast.c`
- Almost all change is replacement `rb_ast_t *ast` with `VALUE vast` (sorry for the big diff)
- Fix `node_memsize()`
- Now it includes `rb_ast_local_table_link`, `tokens` and script_lines
- `compile.c`, `load.c`, `node.c`, `parse.y`, `proc.c`, `ruby.c`, `template/prelude.c.tmpl`, `vm.c` and `vm_eval.c`
- Follow-up due to the above changes
- `imemo.{c|h}`
- If an object with `imemo_ast` appears, considers it a bug

Refactor parser compile functions to reduce the dependence
on ruby functions.
This commit includes these changes
1. Refactor `gets`, `input` and `gets_` of `parser_params`
Parser needs two different data structure to get next line, function (`gets`) and input data (`input`).
However `gets_` is used for both function (`call`) and input data (`ptr`).
`call` is used for managing general callback function when `rb_ruby_parser_compile_generic` is used.
`ptr` is used for managing the current pointer on String when `parser_compile_string` is used.
This commit changes parser to used only `gets` and `input` then removes `gets_`.
2. Move parser_compile functions and `gets` functions from parse.y to ruby_parser.c
This change reduces the dependence on ruby functions from parser.
3. Change ruby_parser and ripper to take care of `VALUE input` GC mark
Move the responsibility of calling `rb_gc_mark` for `VALUE input` from parser to ruby_parser and ripper.
`input` is arbitrary data pointer from the viewpoint of parser.
4. Introduce rb_parser_compile_array function
Caller of `rb_parser_compile_generic` needs to take care about GC because ruby_parser doesn’t know
about the detail of `lex_gets` and `input`.
Introduce `rb_parser_compile_array` to reduce the complexity of ast.c.
[Feature #18576]
Since outright renaming `ASCII-8BIT` is deemed to backward incompatible,
the next best thing would be to only change its `#inspect`, particularly
in exception messages.
This patch is part of universal parser work.
## Summary
- Decouple VALUE from members below:
- `(struct parser_params *)->debug_lines`
- `(rb_ast_t *)->body.script_lines`
- Instead, they are now `rb_parser_ary_t *`
- They can also be a `(VALUE)FIXNUM` as before to hold line count
- `ISEQ_BODY(iseq)->variable.script_lines` remains VALUE
- In order to do this,
- Add `VALUE script_lines` param to `rb_iseq_new_with_opt()`
- Introduce `rb_parser_build_script_lines_from()` to convert `rb_parser_ary_t *` into `VALUE`
## Other details
- Extend `rb_parser_ary_t *`. It previously could only store `rb_parser_ast_token *`, now can store script_lines, too
- Change tactics of building the top-level `SCRIPT_LINES__` in `yycompile0()`
- Before: While parsing, each line of the script is added to `SCRIPT_LINES__[path]`
- After: After `yyparse(p)`, `SCRIPT_LINES__[path]` will be built from `p->debug_lines`
- Remove the second parameter of `rb_parser_set_script_lines()` to make it simple
- Introduce `script_lines_free()` to be called from `rb_ast_free()` because the GC no longer takes care of the script_lines
- Introduce `rb_parser_string_deep_copy()` in parse.y to maintain script_lines when `rb_ruby_parser_free()` called
- With regard to this, please see *Future tasks* below
## Future tasks
- Decouple IMEMO from `rb_ast_t *`
- This lifts the five-members-restriction of Ruby object,
- So we will be able to move the ownership of the `lex.string_buffer` from parser to AST
- Then we remove `rb_parser_string_deep_copy()` to make the whole thing simple
The `rb_fstring(rb_enc_str_new())` pattern is inneficient because:
- It passes a mutable string to `rb_fstring` so if it has to be interned
it will first be duped.
- It an equivalent interned string already exists, we allocated the string
for nothing.
With `rb_enc_interned_str` we either directly get the pre-existing string
with 0 allocations, or efficiently directly intern the one we create
without first duping it.
Need to separate `check_literal_when` function for parser and
ripper otherwise warning event is not dispatched because
parser `rb_warning1` is used in ripper.
This commit simplifies warnings for hash keys duplication and when clause duplication,
based on the discussion of https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20331.
Warnings are reported only when strings are same to ohters.
This PR moves `rb_copy_wb_protected_attribute` and
`rb_gc_copy_finalizer` into a single function called
`rb_gc_copy_attributes` to be called by `init_copy`. This reduces the
surface area of the GC API.

[Feature #20205]
As a path toward enabling frozen string literals by default in the future,
this commit introduce "chilled strings". From a user perspective chilled
strings pretend to be frozen, but on the first attempt to mutate them,
they lose their frozen status and emit a warning rather than to raise a
`FrozenError`.
Implementation wise, `rb_compile_option_struct.frozen_string_literal` is
no longer a boolean but a tri-state of `enabled/disabled/unset`.
When code is compiled with frozen string literals neither explictly enabled
or disabled, string literals are compiled with a new `putchilledstring`
instruction. This instruction is identical to `putstring` except it marks
the String with the `STR_CHILLED (FL_USER3)` and `FL_FREEZE` flags.
Chilled strings have the `FL_FREEZE` flag as to minimize the need to check
for chilled strings across the codebase, and to improve compatibility with
C extensions.
Notes:
- `String#freeze`: clears the chilled flag.
- `String#-@`: acts as if the string was mutable.
- `String#+@`: acts as if the string was mutable.
- `String#clone`: copies the chilled flag.

[Feature #13557]
Setting the backtrace with an array of strings is lossy. The resulting
exception will return nil on `#backtrace_locations`.
By accepting an array of `Backtrace::Location` instance, we can rebuild
a `Backtrace` instance and have a fully functioning Exception.
