- Adds `LanguagePrimitives.IsNullLike()` method to account for `DBNull.Value` and `NullString.Value` so that they can be considered the same as a null value where sensible in PowerShell.
- Updates `-ne` and `-eq` binders to treat `DBNull.Value` and `NullString.Value` as equal to null/AutomationNull.
- Update code paths for comparing objects in LanguagePrimitives to ensure consistency with how the `-eq` and `-ne` binders work when calling LanguagePrimitives methods to do the comparisons.
- Make `LanguagePrimitives.IsNull()` and `LanguagePrimitives.IsNullLike()` public methods.
- Added tests for null behaviours in `NullRepresentatives.Tests.ps1`
.NET Core changes to return "shortest roundtrippable string" by default for the ToString() method of double and float types. This results in ToString() for double/float values sometimes return a string in 17-digit/9-digit precision format. This PR updated the double/float-to-string conversion in PowerShell to continue using the old precision specifier before the change in .NET Core 3.0.
Expands line continuance for pipelines to allow lines to continue automatically without backticks with the pipe symbol at the start of a line.
This adds to the existing functionality where pipes can be used to continue lines by placing them at the end of a line.
Fixes#7557
* Adds support for binary parsing in format echoing hex: `0b11010110`
* Works with all existing type suffixes and multipliers.
* Supports arbitrary length parsing with `n` suffix using BigInteger; details below.
* Adds `NumberFormat` enum to specify hex/binary/base 10 for the tokenizer, replacing old `bool hex`.
* Adds `n` suffix for all numeric literals to support returning value as a `BigInteger` if requested. This bypasses the issue of large literals losing accuracy when they cast through `double`.
* Adds tests for all new behaviours.

### Binary / Hex Parsing Implementation
* Mimics old sign bit behaviour for int and long types. Sign bits accepted for 8 or 16-bit Hex parsing, and 8, 16, 32, 64 for binary.
* i.e., `0xFFFFFFFF -eq ([int]-1)` and `0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF -eq ([long]-1)`, but suffixing `u` creates `int.MaxValue` and `long.MaxValue`, respectively, instead.
* Sign bits higher than this are accepted for bigint-suffixed numerals:
* Hex: Bigint-suffixed hex treats the high bit of any literal with a length multiple of 8 as the sign bit
* Binary: Bigint-suffixed binary accepts sign bits at 96 and 128 chars, and from there on every 8 characters.
* Prefixing the literal with a 0 will bypass this and be treated as unsigned, e.g. `0b011111111`
* Specifying an `u`nsigned suffix (or combination suffix that includes `u`) ignores sign bits, similar to how parsing a hex string using `[Convert]::ToUint32()` would do so.
* Supports negating literals using `-` prefix. This can result in positive numbers due to sign bits being permitted, just like hex literals.

### Refactored numeric tokenizer parsing
**New flow:**
1. Check for `real` (`.01`, `0.0`, or `0e0` syntaxes)
1. If the decimal suffix is present, TryParse directly into decimal. If the TryParse fails, TryGetNumberValue returns `false`.
2. TryParse as `Double`, and apply multiplier to value. If the TryParse fails, TryGetNumberValue returns `false`.
1. Check type suffixes and attempt to cast into appropriate type. This will return `false` if the value exceeds the specified type's bounds.
2. Default to parsing as `double` where no suffix has been applied.
2. Check number format.
* If binary, manually parse into BigInteger using optimized helper function to directly construct the BigInteger bytes from the string.
* If hex, TryParse into `BigInteger` using some special casing to retain original behaviours in int/long ranges.
* If neither binary nor hex, TryParse normally as a `BigInteger`.
3. Apply multiplier value before attempting any casts to ensure type bounds can be appropriately checked without overflows.
4. Check type suffixes.
* If a specific type suffix is used, check type bounds and attempt to parse into that type.
* If the value exceeds the type's available values, the parse fails. Otherwise, a straight cast is performed.
5. If no suffix is used, the following types are bounds-checked, in order, resulting in the first successful test determining the type of the number.
* `int`
* `long`
* `decimal` (base-10 literals only)
* `double` (base-10 literals only)
* ~~`BigInteger` for binary or hex literals.~~ If the value is outside `long` range (for hex and binary) or `double` range (for base 10), the parse will fail; higher values must be explicitly requested using the `n`/`N` BigInteger suffix.

*This is a breaking change* as binary literals are now read as numbers instead of generic tokens which could potentially have been used as function / cmdlet names or file names.
Notes:
* Binary literal support was approved by the committee in #7557
* ~~The same issue is still under further discussion for underscore support in numeric literals and whether BigInteger parsing ought to be exposed to the user at all.~~
* ~~Supporting underscore literals is a further breaking change causing some generic tokens like `1_000_000` to be read as numerals instead.~~ Per @SteveL-MSFT's [comment](https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/pull/7993#issuecomment-442651543) this proposal was rejected.
* ~~Removing underscore support or preventing standard parsing from accepting BigInteger ranges is a relatively trivial matter. It is my personal opinion that there is no particular reason *not* to hand the user a BigInteger when they enter a sufficiently large literal, but I will defer to the PowerShell Committee's judgement on this.~~
`TypeBuilder.GetInterfaces()` returns only the interfaces that was explicitly passed to its constructor, so we need to flatten the interface hierarchy in order to properly support inherited interfaces.
Fix#8028
This change adds support for specifying the underlying type for an enum:
```powershell
enum MyEnum : long
{
A = 0x0FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
B
}
# or
enum MyByte : byte
{
A = 0x01
B = 0x02
C = 0x03
D
}
```
Ubuntu18.04 seems to default to C.UTF-8 for LANG (representing InvariantCulture) which results in a case-sensitive hashtable since CurrentCultureIgnoreCase doesn't work for that culture. Fix is to use OrdinalIgnoreCase instead.
With this commit, users who invoke a command with -Debug will no longer be presented with a prompt asking them if they want to enter a nested prompt, continue execution, or halt execution entirely. Instead, any messages sent to the debug stream will simply be sent to the debug stream and the script will continue execution.
When implementing interfaces, PowerShell incorrectly produces non-virtual get/set methods for interface-defined properties.
This commit adds a lookup method for interface-defined properties and marks get/set methods for properties with matching signatures virtual.

- Adds y suffix that is used to specify a numeric literal as the sbyte data type.
- Can be combined with the existing u suffix as uy to specify the byte data type.
Support calling methods with ByRef-like type parameters in PowerShell, as long as the argument specified for the parameter can be implicitly/explicitly converted to the ByRef-like type.
We cannot create an instance of a ByRef-like type in PowerShell, but there are types that can be implicitly or explicitly converted to ByRef-like types, such as `T[] -> Span<T>`, `T[] -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`, `String -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. `ArraySegment<T> -> Span<T>`, `ArraySegment<T> -> ReadOnlySpan<T>`. With changes in this PR, we can call methods with ByRef-like parameter types by providing the arguments of the types that can be cast to the target ByRef-like type.
**What is enabled?**
1. Invoking methods that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
2. Invoking constructors with ByRef-like parameters via `[target-type]::new` syntax, but the `target-type` is not ByRef-like.
3. Accessing indexers that have ByRef-like parameters, but the return type is not ByRef-like.
This change enables index operations on objects that implement `ITuple` and other interfaces that have `DefaultMemberAttribute` declared, including slicing and negative indexing.
ByRef-like types are supposed to be used on stack only, so we need to fail gracefully when accessing properties, calling methods, or creating objects related to ByRef-like types.
Fix#7089. Native globbing on UNIX was turning absolute paths into relative paths when it shouldn't. The code suppresses generating a relative path for paths starting with '~'. It also need to do the same for paths starting with '/'.
- Make switch-statement report correct error position when it fails to evaluate the condition.
- Make for-statement report correct error position when it fails to evaluate the initializer.
- For the condition of `if/for/while/do-while/do-until` statements, the sequence point update is either duplicate in some cases (for `if/for/while`) which causes debugger to stop at the condition twice before moving forward, or missing (for `do-while/do-until`) which causes debugger to skip the condition. They are fixed.
