create type bound operations for calls in the method dispatcher for ORC

fixes #21592; create type bound operations for calls in the method dispatcher for ORC

import std/options

type Event* = object
  code*: string

type App* = ref object of RootObj
  id*: string

method process*(self: App): Option[Event] {.base.} =
  raise Exception.new_exception("not impl")

It now works.

Write an RFC for adding compiler support for object construction shorthand

compiler support for object construction shorthand

[PR] disable BareExcept warning in panics:on mode

disable BareExcept warning in panics:on mode

try:
  raise newException(CatchableError, "catched")
except:
  discard

With --panics:on, the compiler does not give BareExcept warnings.

[PR] warn on overloaded =copy with refc

fixes #20846; fixes #21427; warn on overloaded =copy with refc

[PR] implement =dup hook eliminating wasMoved and =copy pairs

implement =dup hook eliminating wasMoved and =copy pairs

proc `=dup`(s: ref): ref =
  dest[] = src
  if src != nil: nimIncRef src

The =dup hook is for optimization. The compiler sometimes generates =wasMoved(x); =copy(x, y). But =wasMoved is unnecessary in this case since it is going to be rewritten for sure. It should be replaced by x = =dup(y) instead.
