Closes #333

  • Refactor treatment of return variables: Before, we had special logic to detect return variables to prevent them from being reordered. However, I realised that it's easier to detect jumps to the exit BB and just skip signature sorting in that case. This immediately generalised to inout variables that are outputted.
  • Update function compilation to also output inout arguments after the regular returns
  • Enable Hugr validation for the tests

Looks good. The compile_{local,global}_func_def both have the same changes. Perhaps this could be nicely deduplicated?

This is the dev branch for the inout argument feature (tracked by #282).

The idea is to allow explicit `@inout` annotations on function arguments
that "give back" the passed value after the function returns:

```python
@guppy
def foo(q: qubit @inout) -> None: ...

@guppy
def bar(q1: qubit @inout, q2: qubit @inout) -> bool: ...

@guppy
def main() -> None:
   q1, q2 = qubit(), qubit()
   foo(q1)          # Desugars to `q1 = foo(q1)`
   x = bar(q1, q2)  # Desugars to `q1, q2, x = bar(q1, q2)`
   y = bar(q1, q1)  # Error: Linearity violation, q1 used twice
```

To enable this, we need to enforce that `@inout` arguments are not moved
in the body of the function (apart from passing them in another `@inout`
position). This means that the argument will always be bound to the same
name and never aliased which allows us to desugar `@inout` functions
like

```python
@guppy
def bar(q1: qubit, q2: qubit) -> bool:
   [body]
   return [expr]
```

into

```python
@guppy
def bar(q1: qubit, q2: qubit) -> tuple[qubit, qubit, bool]:
   [body]
   return q1, q2, [expr]  # Linearity checker needs to ensure that q1, q2 are unused
```

Note that we only allow `@inout` annotations on linear types, since they
would be useless for classical ones (unless we also implement an
ownership system for classical values). Supporting them would make the
checking logic more complicated without providing any meaningful
benefit.

## [0.10.0](v0.9.0...v0.10.0)
(2024-09-11)


### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES

* Bumped the `hugr` dependency to `0.8.0`
* `GuppyModule.load` no longer loads the content of modules but instead
just brings the name of the module into scope. Use
`GuppyModule.load_all` to get the old behaviour.
* Removed `guppylang.hugr_builder.hugr.Hugr`, compiling a module returns
a `hugr.Package` instead.
