Improves the error message for ValidateNoRefAccessInRender, using the new diagnostic type as well as providing a longer but succinct summary of what refs are for and why they're unsafe to access in render.
Much of the logic in the new validation pass is already implemented in
DropManualMemoization, so let's combine them. I opted to keep the
environment flag so we can more precisely control the rollout.

Adds a new validation pass to validate against `useMemo`s that don't
return anything. This usually indicates some kind of "useEffect"-like
code that has side effects that need to be memoized to prevent
overfiring, and is an anti-pattern.
A follow up validation could also look at the return value of `useMemo`s
to see if they are being used.

Uses the new diagnostic infrastructure for this validation, which lets

"This dependency may be mutated later") separately from the overall

This PR uses the new diagnostic type for most of the error messages
produced in our explicit validation passes (`Validation/` directory).
One of the validations produced multiple errors as a hack to showing
multiple related locations, which we can now consolidate into a single
diagnostic.

We currently inline IIFEs by creating a temporary and a labeled block w
the original code. The original return statements turn into an
assignment to the temporary and break out of the label. However, many
cases of IIFEs are due to inlining of manual `useMemo()`, and these
cases often have only a single return statement. Here, the output is
cleaner if we avoid the temporary and label - so that's what we do in
this PR.
Note that the most complex part of the change is actually around
ValidatePreserveExistingMemo - we have some logic to track the IIFE
temporary reassignmetns which needs to be updated to handle the simpler
version of inlining.

Squashed, review-friendly version of the stack from
https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/33488.
This is new version of our mutability and inference model, designed to
replace the core algorithm for determining the sets of instructions
involved in constructing a given value or set of values. The new model
replaces InferReferenceEffects, InferMutableRanges (and all of its
subcomponents), and parts of AnalyzeFunctions. The new model does not
use per-Place effect values, but in order to make this drop-in the end
_result_ of the inference adds these per-Place effects.
I'll write up a larger document on the model, first i'm doing some
housekeeping to rebase the PR.

## Summary
While investigating the root cause of #33208, I noticed a clear typo for
one of the validation files.
## How did you test this change?
Inside `/react/compiler/packages/babel-plugin-react-compiler` I ran the
test script successfully:
<img width="415" alt="Screenshot at May 22 16-43-06"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3fe8c5e1-37ce-4a31-b35e-7e323e57cd9d"
/>
This revisits a validation I built a while ago, trying to make it more strict this time to ensure that it's high-signal.
We detect function expressions which are *known* mutable — they definitely can modify a variable defined outside of the function expression itself (modulo control flow). This uses types to look for known Store and Mutate effects only, and disregards mutations of effects. Any such function passed to a location with a Freeze effect is reported as a validation error.
This is behind a flag and disabled by default. If folks agree this makes sense to revisit, i'll test out internally and we can consider enabling by default.

This pass didn't previously report the precise difference btw inferred/manual dependencies unless a debug flag was set. But the error message is really good (nice job mofeiz): the only catch is that in theory the inferred dep could be a temporary that can't trivially be reported to the user.
But the messages are really useful for quickly verifying why the compiler couldn't preserve memoization. So here we switch to outputting a detailed message about the discrepancy btw inferred/manual deps so long as the inferred dep root is a named variable. I also slightly adjusted the message to handle the case where there is no diagnostic, which can occur if there were no manual deps but the compiler inferred a dependency.

React uses function identity to determine whether a given JSX expression represents the same type of component and should reconcile (keep state, update props) or replace (teardown state, create a new instance). This PR adds off-by-default validation to check that developers are not dynamically creating components during render.
The check is local and intentionally conservative. We specifically look for the results of call expressions, new expressions, or function expressions that are then used directly (or aliased) as a JSX tag. This allows common sketchy but fine-in-practice cases like passing a reference to a component from a parent as props, but catches very obvious mistakes such as:
```js
function Example() {
const Component = createComponent();
return <Component />;
}
```
We could expand this to catch more cases, but this seems like a reasonable starting point. Note that I tried enabling the validation by default and the only fixtures that error are the new ones added here. I'll also test this internally. What i'm imagining is that we enable this in the linter but not the compiler.

Prior to this PR, our HIR represented property access with numeric
literals (e.g. `myVar[0]`) as ComputedLoads. This means that they were
subject to some deopts (most notably, not being easily dedupable /
hoistable as dependencies).
Now, `PropertyLoad`, `PropertyStore`, etc reference numeric and string
literals (although not yet string literals that aren't valid babel
identifiers). The difference between PropertyLoad and ComputedLoad is
fuzzy now (maybe we should rename these).
- PropertyLoad: property keys are string and numeric literals, only when
the string literals are valid babel identifiers
- ComputedLoad: non-valid babel identifier string literals (rare) and
other non-literal expressions
The biggest feature from this PR is that it trivially enables
array-indicing expressions as dependencies. The compiler can also
specify global and imported types for arrays (e.g. return value of
`useState`)
I'm happy to close this if it complicates more than it helps --
alternative options are to entirely rely on instruction reordering-based
approaches like ReactiveGraphIR or make dependency-specific parsing +
hoisting logic more robust.
For now we just reject all calls of impure functions, and the validation
is off by default. Going forward we can make this more precise and only
reject impure functions called during render.
Note that I was intentionally imprecise in the return type of these
functions in order to avoid changing output of existing code. We lie to
the compiler and say that Date.now, performance.now, and Math.random
return unknown mutable objects rather than primitives. Once the
validation is complete and vetted we can switch this to be more precise.
We report a false positive for the combination of a ref-accessing
function placed inside an array which is they type-cast. Here we teach
ref validation about type casts. I also tried other variants like
`return ref as const` but those already worked.
Closes#31864
Summary:
The official guidance for useRef notes an exception to the rule that refs cannot be accessed during render: to avoid recreating the ref's contents, you can test that the ref is uninitialized and then initialize it using an if statement:
```
if (ref.current == null) {
ref.current = SomeExpensiveOperation()
}
```
The compiler didn't recognize this exception, however, leading to code that obeyed all the official guidance for refs being rejected by the compiler. This PR fixes that, by extending the ref validation machinery with an awareness of guard operations that allow lazy initialization. We now understand `== null` and similar operations, when applied to a ref and consumed by an if terminal, as marking the consequent of the if as a block in which the ref can be safely written to. In order to do so we need to create a notion of ref ids, which link different usages of the same ref via both the ref and the ref value.

Summary:
The fact that phis are identifiers rather than places is unfortunate in a few cases. In some later analyses, we might wish to know whether a phi is reactive, but we don't have an easy way to do that currently.
Most of the changes here is just replacing phi.id with phi.place.identifier and such. Interesting bits are EnterSSA (several functions now take places rather than identifiers, and InferReactivePlaces now needs to mark places as reactive explicitly.

Summary:
This brings the behavior of ref mutation within hook callbacks into alignment with the behavior of global mutations--that is, we allow all hooks to take callbacks that may mutate a ref. This is potentially unsafe if the hook eagerly calls its callback, but the alternative is excessively limiting (and inconsistent with other enforcement).
This also bans *directly* passing a ref.current value to a hook, which was previously allowed.

Summary:
This change expands our handling of refs to build an understanding of nested refs within objects and functions that may return refs. It builds a special-purpose type system within the ref analysis that gives a very lightweight structural type to objects and array expressions (merging the types of all their members), and then propagating those types throughout the analysis (e.g., if `ref` has type `Ref`, then `{ x: ref }` and `[ref]` have type `Structural(value=Ref)` and `{x: ref}.anything` and `[ref][anything]` have type `Ref`).
This allows us to support structures that contain refs, and functions that operate over them, being created and passed around during rendering without at runtime accessing a ref value.
The analysis here uses a fixpoint to allow types to be fully propagated through the system, and we defend against diverging by widening the type of a variable if it could grow infinitely: so, in something like
```
let x = ref;
while (condition) {
x = [x]
}
```
we end up giving `x` the type `Structural(value=Ref)`.

At Meta we have a pattern of using tagged template literals for features that are compiled away:
```
// Relay:
graphql`...graphql text...`
```
In many cases these tags produce a primitive value, and we can get even more optimal output if we can tell the compiler about these types. The new moduleTypeProvider gives us the ability to declare such types, this PR extends the compiler to use this type information for TaggedTemplateExpression values.

To prevent any difference in behavior, we check that the optionality of the inferred deps exactly matches the optionality of the manual dependencies. This required a fix, I was incorrectly inferring optionality of manual deps (they're only optional if OptionalTerminal.optional is true) - for nested cases of mixed optional/non-optional.

If the inferred deps are more precise (non-optional) than the manual deps (optional) it should pass validation.
The other direction also seems like it would be fine - inferring optional deps when the original was non-optional - but for now let's keep the "at least as precise" rule.

Branch terminals didn't have a fallthrough because they correspond to an outer terminal (optional, logical, etc) that has the "real" fallthrough. But understanding how branch terminals correspond to these outer terminals requires knowing the branch fallthrough. For example, `foo?.bar?.baz` creates terminals along the lines of:
```
bb0:
optional fallthrough=bb4
bb1:
optional fallthrough=bb3
bb2:
...
branch ... (fallthrough=bb3)
...
bb3:
...
branch ... (fallthrough=bb4)
...
bb4:
...
```
Without a fallthrough on `branch` terminals, it's unclear that the optional from bb0 has its branch node in bb3. With the fallthroughs, we can see look for a branch with the same fallthrough as the outer optional terminal to match them up.

Adds an `optional: boolean` property to each token in a DependencyPath, currently always set to false. Also updates the equality and printing logic for paths to account for this field.

Previously the path of a ReactiveScopeDependency was `Array<string>`. We need to track whether each property access is optional or not, so as a first step we change this to `Array<{property: string}>`, making space for an additional property in a subsequent PR.

Summary:
This addresses the issue of the compiler being overly restrictive about refs escaping into object expressions. Rather than erroring whenever a ref flows into an object, we will now treat the object itself as a ref, and apply the same escape rules to it. Whenever we look up a property from a ref value, we now don't know whether that value is itself a ref or a ref value, so we assume it's both.
The same logic applies to ref-accessing functions--if such a function is stored in an object, we'll propagate that property to the object itself and any properties looked up from it.

This fixture bails out on ValidatePreserveExistingMemo but would ideally memoize since the original memoization is safe. It's trivial to make it pass by commenting out the commented line (`LogEvent.log(() => object)`). I would expect the compiler to infer this as possible mutation of `logData`, since `object` captures a reference to `logData`. But somehow `logData` is getting memoized successfully, but we still infer the callback, `setCurrentIndex`, as having a mutable range that extends to the `setCurrentIndex()` call after the useCallback.

Per comments on the new validation pass, this disallows creating JSX (expression/fragment) within a try statement. Developers sometimes use this pattern thinking that they can catch errors during the rendering of the element, without realizing that rendering is lazy. The validation allows us to teach developers about the error boundary pattern.

Since we want to make ref-in-render errors enabled by default, we should position those errors at the location of the read. Not only will this be a better experience, but it also aligns the behavior of Forget and Flow.
This PR also cleans up the resulting error messages to not emit implementation details about place values.

Summary:
Refs, as stable values that the rules of react around mutability do not apply to, currently are treated as having mutable ranges, and through aliasing, this can extend the mutable range for other values and disrupt good memoization for those values. This PR excludes refs and their .current values from having mutable ranges.
Note that this is unsafe if ref access is allowed in render: if a mutable value is assigned to ref.current and then ref.current is mutated later, we won't realize that the original mutable value's range extends.

Per discussion today, adds validation against calling setState "during" passive effects. Basically, it's fine to _schedule_ setState to be called (via a timeout, listener, etc) but generally not recommended to call setState during the effect since that will trigger a cascading render.
This validation is off by default, i'm putting this up for discussion and to experiment with it internally.

This PR updates to use SSA form through the entire compilation pipeline. This means that in both HIR form and ReactiveFunction form, `Identifier` instances map 1:1 to `IdentifierId` values. If two identifiers have the same IdentifierId, they are the same instance. What this means is that all our passes can use this more precise information to determine if two particular identifiers are not just the same variable, but the same SSA "version" of that variable.
However, some parts of our analysis really care about program variables as opposed to SSA versions, and were relying on LeaveSSA to reset identifiers such that all Identifier instances for a particular program variable would have the same IdentifierId (though not necessarily the same Identifier instance). With LeaveSSA removed, those analysis passes can now use DeclarationId instead to uniquely identify a program variable.
Note that this PR surfaces some opportunties to improve edge-cases around reassigned values being declared/reassigned/depended-upon across multiple scopes. Several passes could/should use IdentifierId to more precisely identify exactly which values are accessed - for example, a scope that reassigns `x` but doesn't use `x` prior to reassignment doesn't have to take a dependency on `x`. But today we take a dependnecy.
My approach for these cases was to add a "TODO LeaveSSA" comment with notes and the name of the fixture demonstrating the difference, but to intentionally preserve the existing behavior (generally, switching to use DeclarationId when IdentifierId would have been more precise).
Beyond updating passes to use DeclarationId instead of Identifier/IdentifierId, the other change here is to extract out the remaining necessary bits of LeaveSSA into a new pass that rewrites InstructionKind (const/let/reassign/etc) based on whether a value is actually const or has reassignments and should be let.

ghstack failed to land #30552 properly, resubmitting
Developers sometimes use `useMemo()` as a way to conditionally execute code, including conditionally calling setState. However, the compiler may remove existing useMemo calls if they are not necessary, which _should_ always be a safe optimization. If the useMemo has side effects (eg sets state), then this isn't safe.
This PR improves ValidateNoSetStateInRender to disallow any setState in useMemo (even if it's conditional), expanding on the previous check for unconditional setState in render. Note that the approach uses the StartMemoize/FinishMemoize instructions added in DropManualMemo to know whether a particular setState call is within a useMemo or not. This means enabling the validation in DropManualMemo when the setState validation is enabled, but that's fine since that validation is on everywhere by default (_except_ for in fixtures, which we have a todo for)
ghstack-source-id: 65bb3289c3
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/30583
Summary:
This diff extends the existing work on validating against locals being reassigned after render, by propagating the reassignment "effect" into the lvalues of instructions when the rvalue operands include values known to cause reassignments. In particular, this "closes the loop" for function definitions and function calls: a function that returns a function that reassigns will be considered to also perform reassignments, but previous to this we didn't consider the result of a `Call` of a function that reassigns to itself be a value that reassigns.
This causes a number of new bailouts in test cases, all of which appear to me to be legit.

Addresses discussion at https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/30399#discussion_r1684693021. Once we've constructed scopes it's invalid to use identifier mutable ranges. The only places we can do this which i can find are ValidateMemoizedEffectDeps (which is already flawed and disabled by default) and ValidatePreservedManualMemoization. I added a todo to the former, and fixed up the latter.
The idea of the fix is that for StartMemo dependencies, if they needed to be memoized (identifier.scope != null) then that scope should exist and should have already completed. If they didn't need a scope or can't have one created (eg their range spans a hook), then their scope would be pruned. So if the scope is set, not pruned, and not completed, then it's an error.
For declarations (FinishMemo) the existing logic applies unchanged.
