The layout changes to become relative-address based. For this to be
truly immutable (at least on Darwin), things like the RO data patterns
must be moved out of the pattern header. Additionally, compress the
pattern header so that we do not include metadata about patterns that
are not needed for the type.
Value metadata patterns just include the metadata kind and VWT.
The design here is meant to accomodate non-default instantiation
patterns should that become an interesting thing to support in the
future, e.g. for v-table specialization.
The count of the number of witness tables was designed to be an
assertion/check that we've hooked up all the infrastructure
correctly. Everything is now implemented, and the assertion has never
triggered, so it can be removed, saving some work.

Change the "metadata base offset" variable into a "class metadata bounds"
variable that contains the base offset and the +/- bounds on the class.
Link this variable from the class descriptor when the class has a resilient
superclass; otherwise, store the +/- bounds there. Use this variable to
compute the immediate-members offset for various runtime queries. Teach the
runtime to fill it in lazily and remove the code to compute it from the
generated code for instantiation. Identify generic arguments with the start
of the immediate class metadata members / end of the {struct,enum} metadata
header and remove the generic-arguments offset from generic type descriptors.
This is yet another waypoint on the path towards the final
generic-metadata design. The immediate goal is to make the
pattern a private implementation detail and to give the runtime
more visibility into the allocation and caching of generic types.
The key path pattern needs to include a reference to the external descriptor, along with hooks for lowering its type arguments and indices, if any. The runtime will need to instantiate and interpolate the external component when the key path object is instantiated.
While we're here, let's also reserve some more component header bytes for future expansion, since this is an ABI we're going to be living with for a while.
Instead of using the target that was passed to the driver. Use the target from
the clang importer that might have been changed by clang (i.e armv7 to thumbv7
on darwin)

This makes resolving mangled names to nominal types in the same module more efficient, and for eventual secrecy improvements, also allows types in the same module to be referenced from mangled typerefs without encoding any source-level name information about them.
@noescape function types will eventually be trivial. A
convert_escape_to_noescape instruction does not take ownership of its
operand. It is a projection to the trivial value carried by the closure
-- both context and implementation function viewed as a trivial value.
A safe SIL program must ensure that the object that the project value is based
on is live beyond the last use of the trivial value. This will be
achieve by means of making the lifetimes dependent.
For example:
%e = partial_apply [callee_guaranteed] %f(%z) : $@convention(thin) (Builtin.Int64) -> ()
%n = convert_escape_to_noescape %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> () to $@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()
%n2 = mark_dependence %n : $@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> () on %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> ()
%f2 = function_ref @use : $@convention(thin) (@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()) -> ()
apply %f2(%n2) : $@convention(thin) (@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()) -> ()
release_value %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> ()

This new format more efficiently represents existing information, while
more accurately encoding important information about nested generic
contexts with same-type and layout constraints that need to be evaluated
at runtime. It's also designed with an eye to forward- and
backward-compatible expansion for ABI stability with future Swift
versions.
* Remove RegisterPreservingCC. It was unused.
* Remove DefaultCC from the runtime. The distinction between C_CC and DefaultCC
was unused and inconsistently applied. Separate C_CC and DefaultCC are
still present in the compiler.
* Remove function pointer indirection from runtime functions except those
that are used by Instruments. The remaining Instruments interface is
expected to change later due to function pointer liability.
* Remove swift_rt_ wrappers. Function pointers are an ABI liability that we
don't want, and there are better ways to get nonlazy binding if we need it.
The fully custom wrappers were only needed for RegisterPreservingCC and
for optimizing the Instruments function pointers.
Emit nominal type access functions for imported types. These access
functions work with non-unique metadata references, so they perform
uniquing through the runtime on first access.
Fixes rdar://problem/36430234.
Emit protocol conformance descriptors as separate symbols, rather than
inlining them within the section for protocol conformance records. We
want separate symbols for protocol conformances both because it is easier
to make them variable-length (as required for conditional
conformances) and because we want to reference them from witness
tables (both of which are coming up).
We want to be able to re-order existing protocol requirements
and add new protocol requirements with default implementations.
Enable this by wrapping the witness table lookup inside a
thunk and calling the thunk, instead of open-coding the
witness table lookup directly in client code.
Introduce a new section that contains (relative) references to all of the
Swift protocol descriptors emitted into this module. We'll use this to
find protocol descriptors by name.
When emitting foreign class metadata (e.g., for an imported CF type), fill
in the superclass when we have one. The superclass will itself be a foreign
metadata candidate, so also register an initialization function that uniques
the superclass metadata once we've picked the canonical foreign class
metadata.
Swift class metadata has a bit to distinguish it from non-Swift Objective-C
classes. The stable ABI will use a different bit so that stable Swift and
pre-stable Swift can be distinguished from each other.
No bits are actually changed yet. Enabling the new bit needs to wait for
other coordination such as libobjc.

Adjust the IRGen for ObjC interop to ensure that the section that
metadata is emitted into the correct section for non-MachO targets.
This also adds a more comprehensive test for ensuring that the IRGen can
now be tested on all targets. Since the ObjC interop is now
controllable via the driver, this test does not require that the
objc_interop feature is present as it is a IRGen test.
This is the first step to remove the `REQUIRES: objc_interop` from the
IRGen tests.
This requires the witness table accessor function to gain two new parameters: a
pointer to an array of witness tables and their count. These are then passed down
to the instantiation function which reads them out of the array and writes them
into the newly-allocated witness table.
We use the count to assert that the number of conditional witness tables passed
in is what the protocol conformance expects, which is especially useful while
the feature is still experimental: it is a compiler/runtime bug if an incorrect
number is passed.
Interpreter support for thumb is not yet properly implemented/tested.
Disable thumb emission.
This change is necessary because LLVM now uses the features string in the
metadata. This features string contains '+thumb'.
This is a follow-up to 034241e440.
