De-genericize one axis of storage buffers to speed up compilation time
of stdlib and user code. Publish the rest as ABI, since we're out of
time to reevaluate the design.
- String hashing is not inlinable, so it can use _Hasher._core operations directly. Remove custom buffering.
- Speed up ASCII hashing by as much as 5.5x by feeding the storage buffer directly into hasher in a single go.
- For other strings, just feed the UTF-8 encoding of the normalized string to the hasher; don't switch to UTF-16 at the first non-ASCII scalar. (Doing that would make the hash encoding of some string sequences ambiguous, leading to artificial collisions.)
- Add a single unconditional terminator byte, 0xFF. It's not a valid UTF-8 code unit, so it won't ever occur within a normalized string encoding.
* Make Range conditionally a Collection
* Convert ClosedRange to conditionally a collection
* De-gyb Range/ClosedRange, refactoring some methods.
* Remove use of Countable{Closed}Range from stdlib
* Remove Countable use from Foundation
* Fix test errors and warnings resulting from Range/CountableRange collapse
* fix prespecialize test for new mangling
* Update CoreAudio use of CountableRange
* Update SwiftSyntax use of CountableRange
* Restore ClosedRange.Index: Hashable conformance
* Move fixed typechecker slowness test for array-of-ranges from slow to fast, yay
* Apply Doug's patch to loosen test to just check for error
Include the initial implementation of _StringGuts, a 2-word
replacement for _LegacyStringCore. 64-bit Darwin supported, 32-bit and
Linux support in subsequent commits.
* Eradicate IndexDistance associated type, replacing with Int everywhere
* Consistently use Int for ExistentialCollection’s IndexDistance type.
* Fix test for IndexDistance removal
* Remove a handful of no-longer-needed explicit types
* Add compatibility shims for non-Int index distances
* Test compatibility shim
* Move IndexDistance typealias into the Collection protocol
* Refactor Indices and Slice to use conditional conformance
* Replace ReversedRandomAccessCollection with a conditional extension
* Refactor some types into struct+extensions
* Revise Slice documentation
* Fix test cases for adoption of conditional conformances.
* [RangeReplaceableCollection] Eliminate unnecessary slicing subscript operator.
* Add -enable-experimental-conditional-conformances to test.
* Gruesome workaround for crasher in MutableSlice tests
I failed to merge the upstream changes to swift-corelibs-foundation at the same
time as I merged that #9806, and it broke on linux. Going to get it right this
time.
