This replaces `LLVM_LIBRARY_VISIBILITY` with `SWIFT_LIBRARY_VISIBILTIY`
througout the runtime. The purpose of this attribution is unclear -
building with `-fvisibility=hidden` would accomplish this. This is an
entirely mechanical change replacing the macro with the Swift namespaced
variant instead.
This is essentially a long-belated follow-up to Arnold's #12606.
The key observation here is that the enum-tag-single-payload witnesses
are strictly more powerful than the XI witnesses: you can simulate
the XI witnesses by using an extra case count that's <= the XI count.
Of course the result is less efficient than the XI witnesses, but
that's less important than overall code size, and we can work on
fast-paths for that.
The extra inhabitant count is stored in a 32-bit field (always present)
following the ValueWitnessFlags, which now occupy a fixed 32 bits.
This inflates non-XI VWTs on 32-bit targets by a word, but the net effect
on XI VWTs is to shrink them by two words, which is likely to be the
more important change. Also, being able to access the XI count directly
should be a nice win.
We can use the extra inhabitants of the type metadata field as extra inhabitants of the entire
existential container, allowing `Any?` and similar types to be the same size as non-optional
existentials.
These functions don't accept local variable heap memory, although the names make it sound like they work on anything. When you try, they mistakenly identify such things as ObjC objects, call through to the equivalent objc_* function, and crash confusingly. This adds Object to the name of each one to make it more clear what they accept.

And update the existential container's initializeWithTake implementation
in the runtime. After only allowing bitwise takable values in the
inline buffer we can use memcpy to move existential container values.

The dumper method dumps:
1. The container's metadata pointer.
2. A pointer to the container's value.
3. Whether or not said value is stored inline in the container.
This provides a general overview that can be used even when working with SIL
code in the debugger by grabbing a pointer to swift Anys and then calling the
c++ any method upon them.
The verifier is intended to be used in conjunction with ASAN for maximum
effect to catch use-after-frees of existential boxes.
While implementing this I refactored some code from ExistentialTypeMetadata into
methods on OpaqueExistentialContainer. ExistentialTypeMetadata just calls these
methods now instead of implementing the code inline.
The COW existential implementation sets the existential box's
new value but fails to set the box's new type. Hijinks ensue
when the new value is later used as if it were of the old type.

Adds the runtime implementation for copy-on-write existentials. This support is
enabled if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is defined. Focus is on
correctness -- not performance yet.
Don't use allocate/deallocate/projectBuffer witnesses for globals in cow
existential mode.
Use SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS configuration to set the default for
SILOptions.
This includes an IRGen fix to use the right projection in
emitMetatypeOfOpaqueExistential if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is set.
Use unknownRetain instead of native retain in dynamicCastToExistential.
This affects the computed stride for fixed-sized types in IRGen as well as the stored stride in value witness tables.
The reason is to let comparisons and difference operations work for pointers to zero-sized types.
(Currently this is achieved by using Builtin.strideof_nonzero in MemoryLayout.stride, but this requires a std::max(1, stride) operation after loading the stride)
The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
