* Add @_used and @_section attributes for global variables and top-level functions
This adds:
- @_used attribute that flags as a global variable or a top-level function as
"do not dead-strip" via llvm.used, roughly the equivalent of
__attribute__((used)) in C/C++.
- @_section("...") attribute that places a global variable or a top-level
function into a section with that name, roughly the equivalent of
__attribute__((section("..."))) in C/C++.
This required quite a bit of infrastructure for emitting this kind of
tuple expression, although I'm not going to claim they really work yet;
in particular, I know the RValue constructor is going to try to explode
them, which it really shouldn't.
It also doesn't include the caller side of returns, for which I'll need
to teach ResultPlan to do the new abstraction-pattern walk. But that's
next.
This attribute indicates that the given SILFunction has to be
added to "accessible functions" section and could be looked up
at runtime using a special API.
The changes for https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/59787 introduced a circular depenendcy between the SIL library and the SILGen library. I have undone this in the cheapest way possible as I don't have bandwidth to look into a more correct fix at the moment.
Instead of creating and destroying a SILProfiler
per TopLevelCodeDecl, setup a single profiler
for the top-level entry point function, and visit
all the TopLevelCodeDecls when mapping regions.
Use a main entry-point instead of a null
SILDeclRef. Eventually we'll want to unify the
emission here such that we visit all the
TopLevelDecls in one shot (and just use a single
profiler), but for now we can just hand the
SILProfiler the expected SILDeclRef.
So far, function effects only included escape effects.
This change adds side-effects (but they are not computed, yet).
It also involves refactoring of the existing escape effects.
Also the SIL effect syntax changed a bit. Details are in docs/SIL.rst

So far, argument effects were printed in square brackets before the function name, e.g.
```
sil [escapes !%0.**, !%1, %1.c*.v** => %0.v**] @foo : $@convention(thin) (@guaranteed T) -> @out S {
bb0(%0 : $*S, %1 : @guaranteed $T):
...
```
As we are adding more argument effects, this becomes unreadable.
To make it more readable, print the effects after the opening curly brace, and print a separate line for each argument. E.g.
```
sil [ossa] @foo : $@convention(thin) (@guaranteed T) -> @out S {
[%0: noescape **]
[%1: noescape, escape c*.v** => %0.v**]
bb0(%0 : $*S, %1 : @guaranteed $T):
...
```
Include the parent `ModuleDecl` when serializing a `SILFunction` so that it is available on deserialized functions even though the full `DeclContext` is not present. With the parent module always available we can reliably compute whether the `SILFunction` comes from a module that was imported `@_weakLinked`.
Serialize the `DeclContext` member of `SILFunction` so that it can be used to look up the module that a function belongs to in order to compute weak import status.

The effect of declaring an import `@_weakLinked` is to treat every declaration from the module as if it were declared with `@_weakLinked`. This is useful in environments where entire modules may not be present at runtime. Although it is already possible to instruct the linker to weakly link an entire dylib, a Swift attribute provides a way to declare intent in source code and also opens the door to diagnostics and other compiler behaviors that depend on knowing that all the module's symbols will be weakly linked.

I am separating the concern of weakly linking symbols that are introduced at the deployment target from the concern of type checking this new type of potential unavailability.

Snapshots are copies of a function at a given point in time.
Currently it's only used for running passes repeatedly for performance profiling.
In future it can be used for caching when doing lazy evaluation in the pipeline.
non-throwing functions.
Activating swift-functions-errors tests
Inserting macros and additional parameters in C and C++ functions following the pattern to lowering to LLVM IR.
If such declarations have availability conditions they have to be
kept alive until IRGen to emit opaque type descriptor that is going
be used at runtime to determine the underlying type.
This is important for "optimized" mode only because in non-optimized
mode "shared" symbol survives SILGen.
It's used to implement `InstructionSet` and `ValueSet`: sets of SILValues and SILInstructions.
Just like `BasicBlockSet` for basic blocks, the set is implemented by setting bits directly in SILNode.
This is super efficient because insertion and deletion to/from the set are basic bit operations.
The cost is an additional word in SILNode. But this is basically negligible: it just adds ~0.7% of memory used for SILInstructions.
In my experiments, I didn't see any relevant changes in memory consumption or compile time.
When developing a module for an OS or SDK, one may use declarations from other modules that were recently introduced in the in-development OS. Those declarations will be annotated as available at the deployment target of the client module and yet the symbols for that declaration are not available in all development builds of that OS. If the module strongly links those symbols, it will crash on older development builds of the OS. The `-enable-experimental-ad-hoc-availability` flag is designed to give developers the option of weakly linking all symbols in other modules that were introduced at the deployment target.
This change introduces the basic change in linking behavior but does not address typechecking. Use of the declarations that are made unavailable in this mode will need to be diagnosed and developers will need a way to detect the unavailability at runtime before use.

Store a list of argument effects in a function, which specify if and how arguments escape.
Such effects can be specified in the Swift source code (for details see docs/ReferenceGuides/UnderscoredAttributes.md) or derived in an optimization pass.
For details see the documentation in SwiftCompilerSources/Sources/SIL/Effects.swift.
Even if there are no uses of the thunk in the code it's still
could be accessed from remotely via distributed accessor mechanism,
so distributed thunks are always used.
This is the initial version of a buildable SIL definition in libswift.
It defines an initial set of SIL classes, like Function, BasicBlock, Instruction, Argument, and a few instruction classes.
The interface between C++ and SIL is a bridging layer, implemented in C.
It contains all the required bridging data structures used to access various SIL data structures.
This showed up when trying to convert swift-package-manager to build
using static linking on Windows. We would not correctly identify the
module as being static due to there being no DeclContext for emission.
When an instruction is "deleted" from the SIL, it is put into the SILModule::scheduledForDeletion list.
The instructions in this list are eventually deleted for real in SILModule::flushDeletedInsts(), which is called by the pass manager after each pass run.
In other words: instruction deletion is deferred to the end of a pass.
This avoids dangling instruction pointers within the run of a pass and in analysis caches.
Note that the analysis invalidation mechanism ensures that analysis caches are invalidated before flushDeletedInsts().
In theory we could map opened archetypes per module because opened archetypes _should_ be unique across the module.
But currently in some rare cases SILGen re-uses the same opened archetype in multiple functions.
The fix is to add the SILFunction to the map's key.
That also requires that we update the map whenever instructions are moved from one function to another.
This fixes a compiler crash.

This removes the ambiguity when casting from a SingleValueInstruction to SILNode, which makes the code simpler. E.g. the "isRepresentativeSILNode" logic is not needed anymore.
Also, it reduces the size of the most used instruction class - SingleValueInstruction - by one pointer.
Conceptually, SILInstruction is still a SILNode. But implementation-wise SILNode is not a base class of SILInstruction anymore.
Only the two sub-classes of SILInstruction - SingleValueInstruction and NonSingleValueInstruction - inherit from SILNode. SingleValueInstruction's SILNode is embedded into a ValueBase and its relative offset in the class is the same as in NonSingleValueInstruction (see SILNodeOffsetChecker).
This makes it possible to cast from a SILInstruction to a SILNode without knowing which SILInstruction sub-class it is.
Casting to SILNode cannot be done implicitly, but only with an LLVM `cast` or with SILInstruction::asSILNode(). But this is a rare case anyway.
