Non-escapable struct definitions often have inicidental integer fields that are
unrelated to lifetime. Without an explicit initializer, the compiler would infer
these fields to be borrowed by the implicit intializer.
struct CountedSpan: ~Escapable {
let span: Span<Int>
let i: Int
/* infer: @lifetime(copy span, borrow i) init(...) */
}
This was done because
- we always want to infer lifetimes of synthesized code if possible
- inferring a borrow dependence is always conservative
But this was the wrong decision because it inevitabely results in lifetime
diagnostic errors elsewhere in the code that can't be tracked down at the use
site:
let span = CountedSpan(span: span, i: 3) // ERROR: span depends on the lifetime of this value
Instead, force the author of the data type to specify whether the type actually
depends on trivial fields or not. Such as:
struct CountedSpan: ~Escapable {
let span: Span<Int>
let i: Int
@lifetime(copy span) init(...) { ... }
}
This fix enables stricter diagnostics, so we need it in 6.2.

synthesized initializer generates dependence on an Int parameter)
Users commonly try to write a lifetime dependency on an 'inout' parameters as:
@_lifetime(a: &a)
func f_inout_useless(a: inout MutableRawSpan) {}
This is useless. Guide them toward what they really wanted:
@_lifetime(a: copy a)
Fixes rdar://151618856 (@lifetime(..) gives inconsistent error messages)
Correctly diagnose this as:
"invalid use of inout dependence on the same inout parameter
@_lifetime(a: &a)
func f_inout_useless(a: inout MutableRawSpan) {}
Correctly diagnose this as:
"lifetime-dependent parameter must be 'inout'":
@_lifetime(a: borrow a)
func f_inout_useless(a: borrowing MutableRawSpan) {}
This comes up often when passing a MutableSpan as an 'inout' argument. The
vague diagnostic was causing developers to attempt incorrect @_lifetime
annotations. Be clear about why the annotation is needed and which annotation
should be used.
If two conformances imply a conformance to the same marker
protocol, don't diagnose redundancy if they differ by
unavailability. Instead, allow the more available conformance
to win.
This allows declaring a type that conforms to a protocol
that inherits from SendableMetatype, followed by an
unavailable Sendable conformance on the same type.

While this made sense in the distant past where the scanning service provided backing storage for the dependency cache, it no longer does so and now makes for awkard layering where clients get at the service via the cache. Now the cache is a simple data structure while all the clients that need access to the scanning service will get it explicitly.
- 'SwiftModuleScanner' will now be owned directly by the 'ModuleDependencyScanningWorker' and will contain all the necessary custom logic, instead of being instantiated by the module interface loader for each query
- Moves ownership over module output path and sdk module output path directly into the scanning worker, instead of the cache
If a C++ namespace has redeclarations in a bridging header, printing AST for the namespace would crash the compiler. This is because such a redeclaration would not have an owning Clang module, and the AST printer did not account for that.
This change fixes the crash.

This avoids diagnostic errors on synthesized accessors, which are impossible for developers to understand.
Fixes rdar://153793344 (Lifetime-dependent value returned by generated accessor '_read')
To guard the new UnsafeMutablePointer.mutableSpan APIs.
This allows older compilers to ignore the new APIs. Otherwise, the type checker
will crash on the synthesized _read accessor for a non-Escapable type:
error: cannot infer lifetime dependence on the '_read' accessor because 'self'
is BitwiseCopyable, specify '@lifetime(borrow self)'
I don't know why the _read is synthesized in these cases, but apparently it's
always been that way.

~Escapable accessors when self is trivial)
