Context type of a dependency is encoded as NULL only when it is explicit
and the context is "default" (see Dependencies::ctxk_encoded_as_null).
Decoding takes place only in Dependencies::DepStream::context_type(),
however the value is used in other places.
The problem is that no decoding is performed when dependencies are
logged using Dependencies::write_dependency_to, but only non-NULL values
are expected in the code. The bug existed before NPG, it simply didn't
cause a crash.
Fixed by moving decoding into Dependencies::DepStream::argument, so no
caller could see encoded context value (NULL) anymore.
It also improves TraceDependencies & LogCompilation output: dependency
context is always correctly displayed.
Also, did some cleanup.
Testing: failing test, JPRT w/ logging turned on & off, CTW on solaris_x64.
Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
