Programming in the Large With C++ 20

" summary

Claims a concrete binary IFC file format for C++20 module build artifacts, implemented in MSVC and intended as a community spec; tools demonstrated include MSVC’s metadata emission, an IPR-based on-disk layout and scriptable readers, and plans for open readers/writers on GitHub. Format uses 32-bit abstract references and homogeneous partitions, offers random-access traversal and is one order of magnitude smaller than PCH. Built artifacts already work in MSVC; GCC/Clang interoperability is proposed but not yet universal.
