 Compiler Internals

An introduction to the internals of the Zig compiler. The articles
currently cover an introduction of most of the compiler "frontend" --
the process from source code to just prior to machine code
generation.

Note: These are the internals for the self-hosted compiler, also
known as the "stage2" compiler. At the time of writing, not all of
the stage2 components are in production use and are still mixed with
"stage1" (C/C++) components.

 1. Zig Tokenizer
 2. Zig Parser
 3. Zig AstGen: AST => ZIR
 4. Zig Sema: ZIR => AIR
