      [torque] Implement parameter overloading in generics · 06f2a5c2
      Daniel Clifford authored
      This allows redifinitions of generics with the same name but differing parameter
      type lists, e.g.
      
        macro coerce<Dest: type>(from: HeapObject): Dest;
        coerce<int32>(from: HeapObject): int32 {...}
        macro coerce<Dest: type>(from: Smi): Dest;
        coerce<int32>(from: Smi): int32 {...}
      
      In order to allow multiple overloads of generic macros with the same name,
      a more nuanced lookup of calls has been implemented using the
      ParameterDifference utility class. There is still work to be done to unify
      when ParameterDifference is used for lookup (e.g. removing it from operator
      lookup when operators become simple aliases for macro names), but that work
      will be done in a separate CL.
      
      As part of this CL, the custom handling of "cast<>" operator in the .g4
      grammar has been removed and replaced by a handful of equivalent overloads of
      a generic "cast" macro.
