Using a virutal output backend to capture all the outputs from
swift-frontend invocation. This allows redirecting and/or mirroring
compiler outputs to multiple location using different OutputBackend.
As an example usage for the virtual outputs, teach swift compiler to
check its output determinism by running the compiler invocation
twice and compare the hash of all its outputs.
Virtual output will be used to enable caching in the future.
The functionality for this flag is no longer necessary because the emit module jobs for deprecated architectures no longer use an artificially low deployment target.

This executable is intended to be installed in the toolchain and act as
an executable compiler plugin just like other 'macro' plugins.
This plugin server has an optional method 'loadPluginLibrary' that
dynamically loads dylib plugins.
The compiler has a newly added option '-external-plugin-path'. This
option receives a pair of the plugin library search path (just like
'-plugin-path') and the corresponding "plugin server" path, separated
by '#'. i.e.
-external-plugin-path
<plugin library search path>#<plugin server executable path>
For exmaple, when there's a macro decl:
@freestanding(expression)
macro stringify<T>(T) -> (T, String) =
#externalMacro(module: "BasicMacro", type: "StringifyMacro")
The compiler look for 'libBasicMacro.dylib' in '-plugin-path' paths,
if not found, it falls back to '-external-plugin-path' and tries to find
'libBasicMacro.dylib' in them. If it's found, the "plugin server" path
is launched just like an executable plugin, then 'loadPluginLibrary'
method is invoked via IPC, which 'dlopen' the library path in the plugin
server. At the actual macro expansion, the mangled name for
'BasicMacro.StringifyMacro' is used to resolve the macro just like
dylib plugins in the compiler.
This is useful for
* Isolating the plugin process, so the plugin crashes doesn't result
the compiler crash
* Being able to use library plugins linked with other `swift-syntax`
versions

The frontend option '-clang-header-expose-module' allows the user to specify that APIs from an imported module have been exposed in another generated header, and thus APIs that depend on them can be safely exposed in the current generated header.
This modifies the ClangImporter to introduce an opaque placeholder
representation for forward declared Objective-C interfaces and
protocols when imported into Swift.
In the compiler, the new functionality is hidden behind a frontend
flag -enable-import-objc-forward-declarations, and is on by default
for language mode >6.
The feature is disabled entirely in LLDB expression evaluation / Swift
REPL, regardless of language version.
This adds the following four new options:
- `-windows-sdk-root`
- `-windows-sdk-version`
- `-visualc-tools-root`
- `-visualc-tools-version`
Together these options make one the master of Windows SDK selection for
the Swift compilation. This is important as now that the injection is
no longer done by the user, we need to ensure that we have enough
control over the paths so that the synthesized overlay is going to map
the files to the proper location.
Once the API has gone through Swift Evolution, we will want to implicitly
import the _Backtracing module. Add code to do that, but set it to off
by default for now.

Add '-validate-clang-modules-once' and '-clang-build-session-file' corresponding to Clang's '-fmodules-validate-once-per-build-session' and '-fbuild-session-file='. Ensure they are propagated to module interface build sub-invocations.
We require these to be first-class Swift options in order to ensure they are propagated to both: ClangImporter and implicit interface build compiler sub-invocations.

* Remove support for linking arclite
Darwin no longer uses arclite and it's no longer distributed
in the macOS SDKs.
This leaves the options -link-objc-runtime and -no-link-objc-runtime
in place, but strips out all the logic that actually used them.
* Remove a dead function
* Warn if `-link-objc-runtime` is used
* Update tests to not look for arclite library
* Add an explicit test for the deprecation warning
* Move the macOS-only -link-objc-runtime test to a separate test file
Add a compiler option `-load-plugin-executable <path>#<module names>`.
Where '<path>' is a path to a plugin executable, '<module-name>' is a
comma-separated module names the plugin provides.
Nothing is using it at this point. Actual plugin infratructure are
introduced in follow-up commits
Introduce `-plugin-path <path>` to add a search path where we will look
for compiler plugins. When resolving an external macro definition, look
for libraries in these search paths whose names match the module name
of the macro.
Implements rdar://105095761.
Add frontend flag `-emit-macro-expansion-files diagnostics` to emit any
macro expansion buffers referenced by diagnostics into files in a
temporary directory. This makes debugging type-checking failures in
macro expansions far easier, because you can see them after the
compiler process has exited.
Introduce a new flag `-export-as` to specify a name used to identify the
target module in swiftinterfaces. This provides an analoguous feature
for Swift module as Clang's `export_as` feature.
In practice it should be used when a lower level module `MyKitCore` is
desired to be shown publicly as a downstream module `MyKit`. This should
be used in conjunction with `@_exported import MyKitCore` from `MyKit`
that allows clients to refer to all services as being part of `MyKit`,
while the new `-export-as MyKit` from `MyKitCore` will ensure that the
clients swiftinterfaces also use the `MyKit` name for all services.
In the current implementation, the export-as name is used in the
module's clients and not in the declarer's swiftinterface (e.g.
`MyKitCore`'s swiftinterface still uses the `MyKitCore` module name).
This way the module swiftinterface can be verified. In the future, we
may want a similar behavior for other modules in between `MyKitCore` and
`MyKit` as verifying a swiftinterface referencing `MyKit` without it
being imported would fail.

For spatial locality on startup.
Hide collocating metadata functions in a separate section behind a flag.
The default is not to collocate functions.

Currently headers produced with `-emit-objc-header` /
`-emit-objc-header-path` produce headers that include modular imports.
If the consumer wishes to operate without modules enabled, these headers
cannot be used. This patch introduces a new flag
(`-emit-clang-header-nonmodular-includes`) that when enabled
attempts to argument each modular import included in such a header with
a set of equivalent textual imports.
