v0.10.0-alpha.3

This release includes fixes to the evaluator and APIs as well as initial support for the TOML encoding.

Evaluator

CL 1198356 fixes a panic in the new evaluator relating to the new mechanism for tracking closedness information.

CL 1198566 fixes a performance regression introduced in CUE v0.6 where cue cmd and tools/flow became many times slower on some inputs.

CL 1198350 ensures that all interpreter errors, such as those from @embed attributes, include position information.

Encodings

Initial support for TOML is included in this release, including support in cmd/cue and an experimental Go package. See the issue tracker for remaining work in this space.

Builtins

CL 1198636 tweaks the existing path.Match and tool/file.Glob builtins to reject ** wildcard patterns as unsupported, to avoid confusion and allow future changes to their behavior. Note that this change may break uses of ** patterns, which behaved like *.

Go API

CL 1198555 adds a cue/load.Config.SkipImports option to avoid loading instances from import statements. This particularly helps cue fmt, where the loading caused unwanted slowness and unnecessary errors.

CL 1198686 fixes cue/load so that it no longer produces extra invalid packages when Config.Package was set to * and nested packages were loaded.

CL 1198351 fixes a bug in astutil.Sanitize where unused imports were not being fully removed from ast.File, causing errors in cue trim where all uses of an import were removed.

CL 1198494 speeds up the Path method on wrapped errors, which causes noticeable speed-ups in some edge cases.
