PR Summary
Implement the Null Coalescing
??and Null Coalescing Assignment??=operators.PR Context
The operators are discussed in the issue #3240
This PR addresses part of RFC PowerShell/PowerShell-RFC#223
The PR is marked as a
Breaking Changedue to changes in theTokenFlagsenum. The changes were made to include the new TokenFlag -BinaryPrecedenceCoalesce. While making this change, it was also decided to create more space in the BinaryPrecedence section of the enum for future binary operators. TheBinaryPrecedenceMaskwas also changed from0x07to0x0f. The order of precedence is not changed. We expected it can cause a breaking change for binary modules as C# treats enums as constants. Though, it is a breaking change we expect the impact to be pretty low as the usage of precedence token flags should be fairly low.PR Checklist
