This had two unexpected consequences, one unfortunate, one "medium":
* All `salsa::Database` must be `'static`. This falls out from
`Q::DynDb` not having access to any lifetimes, but also the defaulting
rules for `dyn QueryGroup` that make it `dyn QueryGroup + 'static`. We
don't really support generic databases anyway yet so this isn't a big
deal, and we can add workarounds later (ideally via GATs).
* It is now statically impossible to invoke `snapshot` from a query,
and so we don't need to test that it panics. This is because the
signature of `snapshot` returns a `Snapshot<Self>` and that is not
accessible to a `dyn QueryGroup` type. Similarly, invoking
`Runtime::snapshot` directly is not possible becaues it is
crate-private. So I removed the test. This seems ok, but eventually I
would like to expose ways for queries to do parallel
execution (matklad and I had talked about a "speculation" primitive
for enabling that).
* This commit is 99% boilerplate I did with search-and-replace. I also
rolled in a few other changes I might have preferred to factor out,
most notably removing the `GetQueryTable` plumbing trait in favor of
free-methods, but it was awkward to factor them out and get all the
generics right (so much simpler in this version).
- extend some of the empty sections, add a new common pattern
- also, show how to use anchors and include so we can test the sources
for common patterns
Switch to a procedural implementation of the `query_group!` macro,
residing in the `components/salsa_macros` subcrate.
Allow the user to override the invoked function via `salsa::invoke(...)`
and the name of the generated query type via `salsa::query_type(...)`.
In all tests, replace the `salsa::query_group! { ... }` invocations with
the new attribute-style `#[salsa::query_group]` macro, and change them
to the new naming scheme for query types (`...Query`).
Update README, examples, and documentation.
