In many places, we're interested in whether a type with archetypes *might be* a superclass of another type with the right bindings, particularly in the optimizer. Provide a separate Type::isBindableToSuperclassOf method that performs this check. Use it in the devirtualizer to fix rdar://problem/24993618. Using it might unblock other places where the optimizer is conservative, but we can fix those separately.
Now that we have lazy metadata accessors for classes and vtable thunking, we don't have any reason to prevent concrete subclasses of generic base classes. Wire up IRGen to lazily instantiate the superclass for concrete derived classes when their metadata is accessed, using a runtime function that installs all the necessary pointers and metadata and registers the fully-initialized class with the ObjC runtime.

<rdar://problem/15975935> warning that you can use 'let' not 'var'
<rdar://problem/18876585> Compiler should warn me if I set a parameter as 'var' but never modify it
<rdar://problem/17224539> QoI: warn about unused variables
This uses a simple pass in MiscDiagnostics that walks the body of an
AbstractFunctionDecl. This means that it doesn't warn about unused properties (etc),
but it captures a vast majority of the cases.
It also does not warn about unused parameters (as a policy decision) because it is too noisy,
there are a variety of other refinements that could be done as well, thoughts welcome.

var/let bindings to _ when they are never used, and use some values that
are only written. This is a testsuite cleanup, NFC. More to come.

The code would generate different diagnosics depending on
the cycle having length 1 or longer. The length 1 case
was broken if the path had a prefix that wasn't part
of the cycle, eg if we have C : A, A : A and visit C
first.
Swift SVN r28317
If you want to make the parameter and argument label the same in
places where you don't get the argument label for free (i.e., the
first parameter of a function or a parameter of a subscript),
double-up the identifier:
func translate(dx dx: Int, dy: Int) { }
Make this a warning with Fix-Its to ease migration. Part of
rdar://problem/17218256.
Swift SVN r27715
Replace the loop over all known protocols with a query into the
actual conformance lookup table, which more properly deals with
out-of-order conformance queries, inheritance of protocol
conformances, and conformance queries in multi-file situtations.
The SILGen test change is because we're no longer emitting redundant
conformances, while the slight diagnostic regression in
circular-inheritance cases is because we handle circular inheritance
very poorly throughout the compiler.
While not the end, this is a major step toward finishing
rdar://problem/18448811.

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.

Previously the "as" keyword could either represent coercion or or forced
downcasting. This change separates the two notions. "as" now only means
type conversion, while the new "as!" operator is used to perform forced
downcasting. If a program uses "as" where "as!" is called for, we emit a
diagnostic and fixit.
Internally, this change removes the UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr class, in
favor of directly instantiating CoerceExpr when parsing the "as"
operator, and ForcedCheckedCastExpr when parsing the "as!" operator.
Swift SVN r24253
Also warn when the subclass returns 'T!' where the superclass returns 'T?'.
In both cases, allow silencing by wrapping the 'T!' in parentheses.
This is intended to provide migration help as Objective-C classes get
annotated for nullability. Because of that, the check is only run on @objc
classes, though it's not limited to classes that actually come from Objective-C
because of (a) deep subclass chains that may all need updating, and (b) ease
of testing.

There's a bit of a reshuffle of the ExplicitCastExpr subclasses:
- The existing ConditionalCheckedCastExpr expression node now represents
"as?".
- A new ForcedCheckedCastExpr node represents "as" when it is a
downcast.
- CoerceExpr represents "as" when it is a coercion.
- A new UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr node describes "as" before it has
been type-checked down to ForcedCheckedCastExpr or CoerceExpr. This
wasn't a strictly necessary change, but it helps us detangle what's
going on.
There are a few new diagnostics to help users avoid getting bitten by
as/as? mistakes:
- Custom errors when a forced downcast (as) is used as the operand
of postfix '!' or '?', with Fix-Its to remove the '!' or make the
downcast conditional (with as?), respectively.
- A warning when a forced downcast is injected into an optional,
with a suggestion to use a conditional downcast.
- A new error when the postfix '!' is used for a contextual
downcast, with a Fix-It to replace it with "as T" with the
contextual type T.
Lots of test updates, none of which felt like regressions. The new
tests are in test/expr/cast/optionals.swift.

Collecting all of the designated initializers into the class
definition itself gives us the complete story in one location, which
improves consistency.
Swift SVN r15088
An initializer outside of the class's defining module won't
necessarily have access to all of the stored properties of the class
to initialize them (and wouldn't be resilient against changes even if
it did), so it must delegate.

There's a lot more work to do here, but start to categorize tests
along the lines of what a specification might look like, with
directories (chapters) for basic concepts, declarations, expressions,
statements, etc.

Break cycles agressively when we find circular class inheritance. The
stronger AST invariants prevent us from having to check for loops
everywhere in the front end.

Detect duplicate and multiple inheritance, clean up diagnostics, and
