• Entities and record fields prefixed with an underscore do not get exported on imports
• Records have an implicit names fields, a []string of all the names for that record (struct/raw_union/enum)
• New built-in procedures
  • slice_to_bytes - convert any slice to a slice of bytes
  • delete - remove an entry from a map
  • clear - clear the contents of a map or dynamic array (e.g. set the count to zero)
  • reserve - reserve memory for the dynamic map or array
• union_cast allows for an optional "ok" check; will panic if the cast is invalid and the ok check was not used
• ?: ternary operator (replaces block and if expressions)
• Unions with variants and common fields

• Core library additions to Windows specific stuff

Fixes

• Overloading bug due to comparison of named types
• Overloading bug due to #import . collision
• Disallow a cast from a pointer of a union (use union_cast instead)
• Minor bugs in generated IR code for slices
