For types like `Atomic` and `Mutex`, we want to know that even though they are
technically bitwise-takable, they differ from other bitwise-takable types until
this point because they are not also "bitwise-borrowable"; while borrowed,
they are pinned in memory, so they cannot be passed by value as a borrowed
parameter, unlike copyable bitwise-takable types. Add a bit to the value witness
table flags to record this.
Note that this patch does not include any accompanying runtime support for
propagating the flag into runtime-instantiated type metadata. There isn't yet
any runtime functionality that varies based on this flag, so that can
be implemented separately.

And use the new bit to ensure we don't try to lower move-only types
with common layout value witness surrogates. Take a bit in the runtime
value witness flags to represent types that are not copyable.
Noncopyable types aren't really "POD", but the bit is still useful to track
whether a noncopyable type has a no-op destroy operation, so rename the
existing bit to be more specific within IRGen's implementation.
Don't rename it in the runtime or Builtin names yet, since doing so will
require a naming transition for compatibility.
1) Shrink from 4 bytes to 1 byte.
2) Assert that alignments are power-of-two at run time.
3) Assert that alignments are power-of-two at compile time when possible.
4) Eliminate "isZero"/"no alignment" from the type. Use llvm::Optional.
TypeBase::usesNativeReferenceCounting() was doing a lot of work to
find the class that a type refers to, then determine whether it
would use the native reference-counting scheme. Its primary caller
in IRGen would use an overly-conservative approximation to decide
between the “Objective-C” and “unknown” cases, which resulted in
uses of “unknown” reference counting for some obviously-ObjC cases
(e.g., values of “NSObject”).
Moreover, the approximation would try to call into the type checker
(because it relied unnecessarily on the superclass *type* of a class
declaration), causing an assertion.
Fixes rdar://problem/42828798.
If a type has the same layout as one of the basic integer types, or has a single refcounted pointer representation, we can use prefab value witness tables from the runtime instead of instantiating new ones. This saves quite a bit of code size, particularly in the Apple SDK overlays, where there are lots of swift_newtype wrappers and option set structs.
This is NFC in intent, but I had to restructure the code to emit more
of the lists "inline", which means I inevitably altered some IRGen
emission patterns in ways that are visible to tests:
- GenClass emits property/ivar/whatever descriptors in a somewhat
different order.
- An ext method type list is now emitted as just an array, not a struct
containing only that array.
- Protocol descriptors are no longer emitted as packed structs.
I was sorely tempted to stop using packed structs for all the metadata
emission, but didn't really want to update that many tests in one go.
In practice, this interferes with FastISel and has exposed lots of latent LLVM backend bugs. Using "normal" power-of-two-bytes sized integers is easier to work with and improves code gen performance for nonoptimizing clients like Swift Playgrounds.
Properly lower reference counting SIL instructions with nonatomic attribute as invocations of corresponding non-atomic reference counting runtime functions.
initialization in-place on demand. Initialize parent metadata
references correctly on struct and enum metadata.
Also includes several minor improvements related to relative
pointers that I was using before deciding to simply switch the
parent reference to an absolute reference to get better access
patterns.
Includes a fix since the earlier commit to make enum metadata
writable if they have an unfilled payload size. This didn't show
up on Darwin because "constant" is currently unenforced there in
global data containing relocations.
This patch requires an associated LLDB change which is being
submitted in parallel.

John and I discussed this and agreed that we only need two cases here,
not four. In the future this may be merged with ResilienceExpansion,
and become a struct with additional availability information, but
we're definitely sure we don't need four levels here.
OpaqueStorageTypeInfo uses iNNN types that don't always have the correct alloc size for an expected
size at the LLVM level. This needs to be fixed before my partial apply closure fixes can hold.

IRGen uses a typedef, SpareBitVector, for its principal
purpose of tracking spare bits. Other uses should not
use this typedef, and I've tried to follow that, but I
did this rewrite mostly with sed and may have missed
some fixups.
This should be almost completely NFC. There may be
some subtle changes in spare bits for witness tables
and other off-beat pointer types. I also fixed a bug
where IRGen thought that thin functions were two
pointers wide, but this wouldn't have affected anything
because we never store thin functions anyway, since
they're not a valid AST type.
This commit repplies r24305 with two fixes:
- It fixes the computation of spare bits for unusual
integer types to use the already-agreed-upon type
size instead of recomputing it. This fixes the
i386 stdlib build. Joe and I agreed that we should
also change the size to use the LLVM alloc size
instead of the next power of 2, but this patch
does not do that yet.
- It changes the spare bits in function types back
to the empty set. I'll be changing this in a
follow-up, but it needs to be tied to runtime
changes. This fixes the regression test failures.

Eliminate support code for lowering protocol_method instructions, and eliminate ExtraDataKind::Metadata, which is no longer needed now that SIL provides all the necessary type information at the call site.

If a type has to be passed or returned resiliently, it
will necessarily be passed indirectly, which is already
represented in SILFunctionType. There is no need to
represent this as a separate channel of information.
NFC. Also fixes a problem where the signature cache
for ExtraData::Block was writing past the end of an
array (but into the storage for an adjacent array
which was fortunately never used).
ExtraData should also disappear as a concept, but we're
still relying on that for existential protocol witnesses.

In value witness table generation, and probably other places, we're inappropriately assuming that 'initializeWithTake' is equivalent to a memcpy in all cases, which isn't true for types that carry weak references or for potentially other types in the future. Add an 'isBitwiseTakable' property to TypeInfos that can be checked to see whether a type is bitwise-takable.

Add a 'Block' ExtraData kind, and teach IRGen how to pull the invocation pointer out of a block structure and pass the block object in the right place.
