between the point at which values were loaded out and the point
at which the call is performed. This is bad for some things,
like not spilling all the arguments, and good for others, like
not keeping the allocation around unnecessarily and being able
to do a tail call.
This has the side-effect of causing the release to actually occur,
since we're not doing cleanups yet.

use irgen::ASTVisitor, which is a subclass of the AST version
that always looks through some expressions and asserts that
others (the unchecked/error ones) can't happen. The main
obstacle to that is access control, because it's quite nice to
have the visitor be a non-local class for nesting purposes,
but that makes it impossible to use private methods anymore.
It's nice to give all the type-specific emitters private
interfaces anyway, though; that ends up being most of the
patch.
I futzed with GenClosure.cpp while I was in there, but
separating it would have been obnoxious.

an owner attached. Use this to implement [byref(heap)]. Force
locals to the heap if they've been referenced in a way that requires
this.

expressions when no value is required. Teach IR-gen
to emit DotSyntaxBaseIgnoredExprs as known function
references with possibly non-trivial semantics.
Undo the change to getSemanticsProvidingExpr().

qualifier, making sure that variables end up so-qualified by
default. Add a RequalifyExpr to capture the act of adding
qualifiers (to form a supertype) to an l-value.

Teach Expr::getSemanticsProvidingExpr to look through DotSyntaxBaseIgnoredExpr.
Start generating DotSyntaxBaseIgnoredExpr for all dot syntax exprs where the base is
ignored (e.g. "Builtin.mul_i32"), which preserves a lot more source location information
and is general goodness for the AST.

to properly represent its newly generalized role. It is formed
for things like "swift.print" where swift is a module type and is
evaluated and ignored.

When we divide the world into scripts and modules, this
won't matter for the former. Recognize <stdin> as a
special case; it should instead just always be a script.
Fixes rdar://problem/10986311.
Swift SVN r1181
- introduce the concept of qualifiers on l-value types
- teach overload resolution and coercion how to drop explicitness
- require explicitness on normal [byref] arguments
- make 'this' [byref(implicit)]
- special-case '&' as a unary operator in the parser to make it
produce an expression which type-checks as turning implicit l-values
into explicit ones.
Obvious missing pieces:
- updating LangRef
- we should really complain about ever trying to rvalue-convert an
explicit l-value
- maybe qualification should play a part in overload resolution
- we should diagnose attempts to declare unary '&' operators
- there's a test case in expressions.swift which suggests my logic is
slightly off
But I am out of time, and these will have to wait.

the wrong structure for an l-value. Use a list instead (that is,
something which allows efficient iteration forward through the
collection).
