AccessBase already identifies a base address as either a .global (addressor) or
a .pointer. When initializing an AccessBase from a pointer_to_address, precisely
identify one of these kinds of accesses, rather than simply marking it
.unidentified.
This used to be a special case in the AccessPathWalker. But that's not the right
place to handle it.
Scope-ending instructions, like `end_borrow` are only irrelevant for RLE if the preceding load is not changed.
If it is changed from `load [copy]` -> `load [take]` the memory effects of those scope-ending instructions prevent that the `load [take]` will illegally mutate memory which is protected from mutation by the scope.

When replacing an `enum` - `unchecked_enum_data` pair and the enum's operand is another non-trivial enum which is constructed with a trivial payload, and this happens in different basic blocks, we need to insert a compensating `destroy_value`.

Checking if an access base is derived from a begin-borrow was too optimistic.
We have to bail for instructions which are not handled by the walker utilities.

For example:
```
%1 = begin_borrow %0
%2 = br bb1(%1, %1)
bb1(%3 : @reborrow @guaranteed, %4: @guaranteed):
// %4 is a guaranteed forwarding phi without any forwarding instructions between the begin_borrow and the incoming value.
```

Add `Value.constantAccessPath`. It is like `accessPath`, but ensures that the projectionPath only contains "constant" elements.
This means: if the access contains an `index_addr` projection with a non-constant index, the `projectionPath` does _not_ contain the `index_addr`.
Instead, the `base` is an `AccessBase.index` which refers to the `index_addr`.
I am adding this instruction to express artificially that two non-Sendable
values should be part of the same region. It is meant to be used in cases where
due to unsafe code using Sendable, we stop propagating a non-Sendable dependency
that needs to be made in the same region of a use of said Sendable value. I
included an example in ./docs/SIL.rst of where this comes up with @out results
of continuations.
* fix a false error if a derived class has different generic parameters than its base class
* fix a similar problem if a non-generic class derives from a generic class
* fix a compiler crash for calling a class method on a class metatype

The optimization replaces a `load [copy]` with a `load_borrow` if possible.
```
%1 = load [copy] %0
// no writes to %0
destroy_value %1
```
->
```
%1 = load_borrow %0
// no writes to %0
end_borrow %1
```
The new implementation uses alias-analysis (instead of a simple def-use walk), which is much more powerful.

In Embedded Swift, witness method lookup is done from specialized witness tables.
For this to work, the type of witness_method must be specialized as well.
Otherwise the method call would be done with wrong parameter conventions (indirect instead of direct).
