The RequirementSignature generalizes the old ArrayRef<Requirement>
which stores the minimal requirements that a conforming type's
witnesses must satisfy, to also record the protocol typealiases
defined in the protocol.
Clients can explicitly ask for the opened existential type on the archetype's generic environment,
or use `getExistentialType` to obtain a specific archetype's upper bounds.
When printing the generic parameters and requirements clauses of
declarations that involve opaque parameters, suppress the implicit
generic parameters created by the opaque parameters as well as the
generic requirements that involve said parameters.
Implement function parameters of the form `some P` be synthesizing an
implicit generic parameter whose requirements come from the opaque
type. We then map the opaque type back to the generic parameter, and
print as the opaque type. This allows us to write functions with
implicit generic parameters:
```swift
func f(_: some Collection) { }
```
which is equivalent to:
```swift
func f<T: Collection>(_: some T) { }
```
where `T` is an otherwise-unused generic parameter name.
All of this is behind the experimental frontend flag
`-enable-experimental-opaque-parameters`.
If a method has an `async` variant, the non-`async` variant will now mark its completion handler parameter `@Sendable`. This shouldn't be a breaking change in Swift 5 code since these declarations are automatically `@_predatesConcurrency`.
Also adds:
• Support for `@_nonSendable` on parameters, which can be used to override this implicit `@Sendable`
• Support for `@Sendable` on block typedefs; it's generally going to be a good idea to mark completion block typedefs `@Sendable`.
Fixes rdar://85569247.
Ultimately this is to support the disambiguation of protocol requirements when printing stubs. This allows us to disambiguate the case where two modules declare a nominal type, and when that type appears in a protocol requirement. In such a case, we now fully qualify the types involved.
Fixing this also appears to now be consistently printing module qualification in many more places, hence the updates to the IDE/SourceKit tests.

Nested archetypes are represented by their base archetype kinds (primary,
opened, or opaque type) with an interface type that is a nested type,
as represented by a DependentMemberType. This provides a more uniform
representation of archetypes throughout the frontend.
As another step toward eliminating NestedArchetypeType, generalize the
representation, construction, and serialization of primary and sequence
archetypes to interface types, rather than generic parameter types.
are printed with the `any` keyword.
For now, printing `any` is off by default in order to turn on explicit
existential types with minimal changes to the test suite. The option
will also allow control over how existential types are printed in
Swift interfaces.
Add new `-print-ast-decl` frontend option for only printing declarations,
to match existing behavior.
Some tests want to print the AST, but don't care about expressions.
The existing `-print-ast` option now prints function bodies and expressions.
Not all expressions are printed yet, but most common ones are.
There are three major changes here:
1. The addition of "SILFunctionTypeRepresentation::CXXMethod".
2. C++ methods are imported with their members *last*. Then the arguments are switched when emitting the IR for an application of the function.
3. Clang decls are now marked as foreign witnesses.
These are all steps towards being able to have C++ protocol conformance.
Address small gaps in several places to make named opaque result types
partially work:
* Augment name lookup to look into the generic parameters when inside the
result type, which is used both to create structure and add requirements
via a `where` clause.
* Resolve opaque generic type parameter references to
OpaqueTypeArchetypeType instances, as we do for the "some" types
* Customize some opaque-type-specific diagnostics and type printing to
refer to the opaque generic parameter names specifically
* Fix some minor issues with the constraint system not finding
already-opened opaque generic type parameters and with the handling of
the opaque result type candidate set.
The major limitation on opaque types, where we cannot add requirements
that aren't strictly protocol or superclass requirements on the
generic parameters, remains. Until then, named opaque result types are
no more expressive than structural opaque result types.
A PackExpansionType is the interface type of the explicit expansion of a
corresponding set of variadic generic parameters.
Pack expansions are spelled as single-element tuples with a single variadic
component in most contexts except functions where they are allowed to appear without parentheses to match normal variadic declaration syntax.
```
func expand<T...>(_ xs: T...) -> (T...)
~~~~ ~~~~~~
```
A pack expansion type comes equipped with a pattern type spelled before
the ellipses - `T` in the examples above. This pattern type is the subject
of the expansion of the pack that is tripped when its variadic generic
parameter is substituted for a `PackType`.
A pack type looks a lot like a tuple in the surface language, except there
is no way for the user to spell a pack. Pack types are created by the solver
when it encounters an apply of a variadic generic function, as in
```
func print<T...>(_ xs: T...) {}
// Creates a pack type <String, Int, String>
print("Macs say Hello in", 42, " different languages")
```
Pack types substituted into the variadic generic arguments of a
PackExpansionType "trip" the pack expansion and cause it to produce a
new pack type with the pack expansion pattern applied.
```
typealias Foo<T...> = (T?...)
Foo<Int, String, Int> // Forces expansion to (Int?, String?, Int?)
```
explicit existential types are enabled.
Note that existential metatypes still resolve to ExistentialMetatypeType,
but later this type can be replaced with ExistentialType(MetatypeType).
The new type, called ExistentialType, is not yet used in type resolution.
Later, existential types written with `any` will resolve to this type, and
bare protocol names will resolve to this type depending on context.
The key thing is that the move checker will not consider the explicit copy value
to be a copy_value that can be rewritten, ensuring that any uses of the result
of the explicit copy_value (consuming or other wise) are not checked.
Similar to the _move operator I recently introduced, this is a transparent
function so we can perform one level of specialization and thus at least be
generic over all concrete types.
