* build.d: Fix VERSION fallback if `git describe` fails
Which can fail for *shallow* git clones, as used for GitHub Actions.
* [apply to config.d as well; e.g., used by Visual Studio project]
* Fix#21024 - Optimize x^^c expressions
Reason for the *magic* constraint c<8 on inlining x^^c:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=blob;f=sysdeps/x86_64/fpu/e_powl.S;h=47f129f34d368d7c67b8e5f2462b36b0bebb7621;hb=HEAD#l136
* Fix poor assumption about expression state
* Restrict optimization to floating point expressions
* Generalize optimization to any scalar data type
* Fix segfault on x^^c where x is a single member anonymous enum
DMD segfaulted on compiling the unittests in std/algorithm/sorting.o, the
unittest that caused the segfault can be reduced to:
enum real Two = 2.0;
auto _ = Two^^3;
I'm not sure why copying the anonymous enum into a `const` variable causes
the compiler to segfault.
* Add tests to x^^c inlining optimization
* Fix missing type for e1 ^^ -1 to 1 / e1 rewrite
* Move rewrites from constant folding to expression semantic and restrict them to [-1, 2]
* Improve error message for the x^^2 rewrite.
Before:
ex.d(4): Error: can implicitly convert expression `(const const(double) __powtmp2 = x + 5.0;) , __powtmp2 * ...` of type `double` to `int`
int y = ( x + 5 ) ^^ 2;
^
and after:
ex.d(4): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression `(x + 5.0) ^^ 2L` of type `double` to `int`
int y = ( x + 5 ) ^^ 2;
^
* Update C++ frontend header to match change in `CommaExp`
* Address code review feedback

Moves the special handling of reading from stdin out of the semantic
routines to the DMD driver itself. All references to `__stdin.d` have
also been removed from the frontend implementation.
