Patch up all the places that are making a syntactic judgement about the
isInvalid() bit in a ValueDecl. They may continue to use that query,
but most guard themselves on whether the interface type has been set.
This is an amalgam of simplifications to the way VarDecls are checked
and assigned interface types.
First, remove TypeCheckPattern's ability to assign the interface and
contextual types for a given var decl. Instead, replace it with the
notion of a "naming pattern". This is the pattern that semantically
binds a given VarDecl into scope, and whose type will be used to compute
the interface type. Note that not all VarDecls have a naming pattern
because they may not be canonical.
Second, remove VarDecl's separate contextual type member, and force the
contextual type to be computed the way it always was: by mapping the
interface type into the parent decl context.
Third, introduce a catch-all diagnostic to properly handle the change in
the way that circularity checking occurs. This is also motivated by
TypeCheckPattern not being principled about which parts of the AST it
chooses to invalidate, especially the parent pattern and naming patterns
for a given VarDecl. Once VarDecls are invalidated along with their
parent patterns, a large amount of this diagnostic churn can disappear.
Unfortunately, if this isn't here, we will fail to catch a number of
obviously circular cases and fail to emit a diagnostic.
along with recent policy changes:
- For expression types that are not specifically handled, make sure to
produce a general "unused value" warning, catching a bunch of unused
values in the testsuite.
- For unused operator results, diagnose them as uses of the operator
instead of "calls".
- For calls, mutter the type of the result for greater specificity.
- For initializers, mutter the type of the initialized value.
- Look through OpenExistentialExpr's so we can handle protocol member
references propertly.
- Look through several other expressions so we handle @discardableResult
better.
return statements, or a return statement with no operand.
Also, fix a special-case diagnostic about converting a return
expression to (1) only apply to converting the actual return
expression, not an arbitrary sub-expression, and (2) use the
actual operand and return types, not the drilled-down types
that caused the failure.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

You'll notice that emitting this diagnostic will make some already noisy closure-related errors slightly more so. This is unfortunate, but for the time-being it's better than crashing.
