This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).
This commit is auto-generated:

$ gn format $(git ls-files '*.gn' '*.gni')
The existing hunk data structure does not contain any way to easily
store information about context surrounding the additions and removals
in a hunk. While this does work fine for normal diffs (where there is
never any surrounding context) this data structure is quite limiting for
other use cases.
Without support for surrounding context it is not possible to:
* Add support for unified or context format to the diff utility to
output surrounding context.
* Be able to implement a patch utility that uses the surrounding
context to reliably locate where to apply a patch when a hunk range
does not apply perfectly.
This patch changes Diff::Hunk such that its data structure more closely
resembles a unified diff. Each line in a hunk is now either a change,
removal, addition or context.
Allowing hunks to have context inside of them exposes that HackStudio
heavily relies on there being no context in the hunks that it uses for
its' git gutter implementation. The fix here is simple - ask git to
produce us a diff that has no context in it!
Rather than creating a TextStyle struct, and then copying its fields
over to a TextAttributes, let's just create a TextAttributes to start
with. This also simplifies the syntax highlighting code by letting us
define underlines along with the other text styling.
Having an alias function that only wraps another one is silly, and
keeping the more obvious name should flush out more uses of deprecated
strings.
No behavior change.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
This moves all code comprehension-related code to a new library,
LibCodeComprehension.
This also moves some types related to code comprehension tasks (such as
autocomplete, find declaration) out of LibGUI and into
LibCodeComprehension.
This adds a new semantic token type, PreprocessorMacro.
Calls to preprocessor macros will now be highlighted when semantic
highlighting is enabled in Hack Studio.
The SemanticSyntaxHighlighter uses TokenInfo results from the
language server to provide 'semantic' syntax highlighting, which
provides more fin-grained text spans results.
For example, the SemanticSyntaxHighlighter can color function calls,
member fields references and user-defined types in different colors.
With the simple lexer-only syntax highlighter, all of these tokens were
given the same text highlighting span type.
Since we have to provide immediate highlighting feedback to the user
after each edit and before we get the result for the language server,
we use a heuristic which computes the diff between the current tokens
and the last known tokens with compete semantic information
(We use LibDiff for this).
This heuristic is not very performant, and starts feeling sluggish with
bigger (~200 LOC) files.
A possible future improvement would be only computing the diff for
tokens in text ranges that have changes since the last commit.
