Jenny Messerly 0496569f09 implement super mixins in dartdevc and fix a few issues in Analyzer
Fixes #34167. This implements the Dart 2 mixin proposal
(https://goo.gl/KEKQyv) for DDC. When the mixin is applied, a class
is created for the application that extends the correct superclass
and has all of the instance members, so `super` works correctly.

This also fixes a few minor issues in Analyzer's (mostly complete)
implementation:
- InterfaceType.isObject now returns false for Dart 2 mixins.
- Least upper bound calculation recognizes mixins are not Object.
- Interface of the mixin now implements its superclass constraints.
- Mixin superclass constraints are checked against the superclass and
  all previously applied mixins (if any); this keeps it working with
  the subtype fix above, and also prevents a not-yet-applied mixin
  from satisfying the constraint

The language_2/mixin_declaration tests were updated with a few minor
fixes now that we can run Analyzer/dartdevc to test them.

This change implements super mixins for DDC's Kernel backend (DDK)
too. This will be enabled once Kernel adds a flag to recognize which
Class nodes are mixins (vs normal classes).

Analyzer for Dart

This package provides a low-level library that performs static analysis of Dart code. It is useful for tool integration and embedding.

End-users should use the dartanalyzer command-line tool to analyze their Dart code.

Integrators that want to add Dart support to their editor should use the Dart Analysis Server. The Analysis Server API Specification is available. If you are adding Dart support to an editor or IDE, please let us know by emailing our list.

Configuring the analyzer

Both dartanalyzer and Dart Analysis Server can be configured with an analysis_options.yaml file (using an .analysis_options file is deprecated). This YAML file can control which files and paths are analyzed, which lints are applied, and more.

If you are embedding the analyzer library in your project, you are responsible for finding the analysis options file, parsing it, and configuring the analyzer.

The analysis options file should live at the root of your project (for example, next to your pubspec.yaml). Different embedders of analyzer, such as dartanalyzer or Dart Analysis Server, may choose to find the file in various different ways. Consult their documentation to learn more.

Here is an example file that instructs the analyzer to ignore two files:

analyzer:
  exclude:
    - test/_data/p4/lib/lib1.dart
    - test/_data/p5/p5.dart
    - test/_data/bad*.dart
    - test/_brokendata/**

Note that you can use globs, as defined by the glob package.

Here is an example file that enables two lint rules:

linter:
  rules:
    - camel_case_types
    - empty_constructor_bodies

Check out all the available Dart lint rules.

You can combine the analyzer section and the linter section into a single configuration. Here is an example:

analyzer:
  exclude:
    - test/_data/p4/lib/lib1.dart
linter:
  rules:
    - camel_case_types

Background

The APIs in this package are, quite frankly, a mess at the moment. They were originally machine generated by a translator and were based on an earlier Java implementation. Several of the API's still look like their Java predecessors (or worse) rather than clean Dart API's.

In addition, there is currently no clean distinction between public and internal APIs. We plan to address this issue but doing so will, unfortunately, require a large number of breaking changes. We will try to minimize the pain this causes for our clients, but some pain is inevitable.
