Decls with a package access level are currently set to public SIL
linkages. This limits the ability to have more fine-grained control
and optimize around resilience and serialization.
This PR introduces a separate SIL linkage and FormalLinkage for
package decls, pipes them down to IRGen, and updates linkage checks
at call sites to include package linkage.

Specifies that the optimizer and IRGen must not add runtime calls which are not in the function originally.
This attribute is set for functions with performance constraints or functions which are called from functions with performance.
Not quite NFC because apparently the representation bleeds into what's
accepted in some situations where we're supposed to be warning about
conflicts and then making an arbitrary choice. But what we're doing
is nonsense, so we definitely need to break behavior here.
This is setting up for isolated(any) and isolated(caller). I tried
to keep that out of the patch as much as possible, though.
ReferenceStorageType can only contain a type that is class-like, like a
SILBox or a class-constrained existential, etc.
While classes do not and are not planned to officially support being
noncopyable, we do still have a lingering experiemental feature that
allows classes to be marked `@_moveOnly`. Thus, the best way to handle
queries about a `ReferenceStorageType` being move-only or noncopyable is
to check whether the referent is.
It's better to ask SILType if it is MoveOnly than go to the AST type and
ask if it is noncopyable, because some types in SIL do not have a
well-defined notion of conformance in the AST.
These calls were being made on types either with a type parameter, or a
SIL-only type that doesn't actually have conformances.
In such cases, it's better to use SILType's move-only query methods.
First, "can have an absence of Copyable" is a rather confusing notion,
so the query is flipped to "can be Copyable". Next, it's more robust to
ask if a conformance exists for the TypeDecl to answer that question,
rather than trying to replicate what happens within that conformance
lookup.
Also renames `TypeDecl::isEscapable` to match.
access level for optimization: `public`. It requires an extra check for
the actual access level that was declared when determining serialization
since the behavior should be different.
This PR sets its effective access level to `package` as originally defined,
updates call sites to make appropriate acces level comparisons, and removes
`package` specific checks.
When an actual instance of a distributed actor is on the local node, it is
has the capabilities of `Actor`. This isn't expressible directly in the type
system, because not all `DistributedActor`s are `Actor`s, nor is the
opposite true.
Instead, provide an API `DistributedActor.asLocalActor` that can only
be executed when the distributed actor is known to be local (because
this API is not itself `distributed`), and produces an existential
`any Actor` referencing that actor. The resulting existential value
carries with it a special witness table that adapts any type
conforming to the DistributedActor protocol into a type that conforms
to the Actor protocol. It is "as if" one had written something like this:
extension DistributedActor: Actor { }
which, of course, is not permitted in the language. Nonetheless, we
lovingly craft such a witness table:
* The "type" being extended is represented as an extension context,
rather than as a type context. This hasn't been done before, all Swift
runtimes support it uniformly.
* A special witness is provided in the Distributed library to implement
the `Actor.unownedExecutor` operation. This witness back-deploys to the
Swift version were distributed actors were introduced (5.7). On Swift
5.9 runtimes (and newer), it will use
`DistributedActor.unownedExecutor` to support custom executors.
* The conformance of `Self: DistributedActor` is represented as a
conditional requirement, which gets satisfied by the witness table
that makes the type a `DistributedActor`. This makes the special
witness work.
* The witness table is *not* visible via any of the normal runtime
lookup tables, because doing so would allow any
`DistributedActor`-conforming type to conform to `Actor`, which would
break the safety model.
* The witness table is emitted on demand in any client that needs it.
In back-deployment configurations, there may be several witness tables
for the same concrete distributed actor conforming to `Actor`.
However, this duplication can only be observed under fairly extreme
circumstances (where one is opening the returned existential and
instantiating generic types with the distributed actor type as an
`Actor`, then performing dynamic type equivalence checks), and will
not be present with a new Swift runtime.
All of these tricks together mean that we need no runtime changes, and
`asLocalActor` back-deploys as far as distributed actors, allowing it's
use in `#isolation` and the async for...in loop.
