Compiler:
- Add `Forward` and `Reverse` to `DifferentiabilityKind`.
- Expand `DifferentiabilityMask` in `ExtInfo` to 3 bits so that it now holds all 4 cases of `DifferentiabilityKind`.
- Parse `@differentiable(reverse)` and `@differentiable(_forward)` declaration attributes and type attributes.
- Emit a warning for `@differentiable` without `reverse`.
- Emit an error for `@differentiable(_forward)`.
- Rename `@differentiable(linear)` to `@differentiable(_linear)`.
- Make `@differentiable(reverse)` type lowering go through today's `@differentiable` code path. We will specialize it to reverse-mode in a follow-up patch.
ABI:
- Add `Forward` and `Reverse` to `FunctionMetadataDifferentiabilityKind`.
- Extend `TargetFunctionTypeFlags` by 1 bit to store the highest bit of differentiability kind (linear). Note that there is a 2-bit gap in `DifferentiabilityMask` which is reserved for `AsyncMask` and `ConcurrentMask`; `AsyncMask` is ABI-stable so we cannot change that.
_Differentiation module:
- Replace all occurrences of `@differentiable` with `@differentiable(reverse)`.
- Delete `_transpose(of:)`.

Previously, two conditions were necessary to enable differentiable programming:
- Using the `-enable-experimental-differentiable-programming` frontend flag.
- Importing the `_Differentiation` module.
Importing the `_Differentiation` module is the true condition because it
contains the required compiler-known `Differentiable` protocol. The frontend
flag is redundant and cumbersome.
Now, the frontend flag is removed.
Importing `_Differentiation` is the only condition.
Add `AdditiveArithmetic` derived conformances for structs and classes, gated by
the `-enable-experimental-differentiable-programming` flag.
Structs and classes whose stored properties all conform to `Differentiable` can
derive `Differentiable`:
- `associatedtype TangentVector: Differentiable & AdditiveArithmetic`
- Member `TangentVector` structs are synthesized whose stored properties are
all `var` stored properties that conform to `Differentiable` and that are
not `@noDerivative`.
- `mutating func move(along: TangentVector)`
The `@noDerivative` attribute may be declared on stored properties to opt out of
inclusion in synthesized `TangentVector` structs.
Some stored properties cannot be used in `TangentVector` struct synthesis and
are implicitly marked as `@noDerivative`, with a warning:
- `let` stored properties.
- These cannot be updated by `mutating func move(along: TangentVector)`.
- Non-`Differentiable`-conforming stored properties.
`@noDerivative` also implies `@_semantics("autodiff.nonvarying")`, which is
relevant for differentiable activity analysis.
Add type-checking and SILGen tests.
