"unavoidable failure" path, along with Failure::DoesNotHaveNonMutatingMember and
just doing some basic disambiguation in CSDiags.
This provides some benefits:
- Allows us to plug in much more specific diagnostics for the existing "only has
mutating members" diagnostic, including producing notes for why the base expr
isn't mutable (see e.g. test/Sema/immutability.swift diffs).
- Corrects issues where we'd drop full decl name info for selector references.
- Wordsmiths diagnostics to not complain about "values of type Foo.Type" instead
complaining about "type Foo"
- Where before we would diagnose all failures with "has no member named", we now
distinguish between when there is no member, and when you can't use it. When you
can't use it, you get a vauge "cannot use it" diagnostic, but...
- This provides an infrastructure for diagnosing other kinds of problems (e.g.
trying to use a private member or a static member from an instance).
- Improves a number of cases where failed type member constraints would produce uglier
diagnostics than a different constraint failure would.
- Resolves a number of rdars, e.g. (and probably others):

which we have a contextual type that was the failure reason. These are a bit
longer but also more explicit than the previous diagnostics.
Swift SVN r30669
conversion failures, making a bunch of diagnostics more specific and useful.
UnavoidableFailures can be very helpful, but they can also be the first constraint
failure that the system happened to come across... which is not always the most
meaningful one. CSDiag's expr processing machinery has a generally better way of
narrowing down which ones make the most sense.
Swift SVN r30647
This covers:
- Lifetime-extending wrappers, like withExtendedLifetime, withCString, and withUnsafe*Pointer
- 'map' and friends on Optional
- 'indexOf'
A few APIs I haven't gotten to yet in this first pass:
- Autoclosure APIs, like assert, &&, etc.
- the 'isOrderedBefore' predicate for sorting APIs. The sorting implementation does some microoptimizations with 'inout' closures that violate rethrows checking.
- Strict 'map', 'filter', and friends on CollectionType. These need some plumbing in Lazy to be able to thread a Result-forming transformation through.

(This is a reapplication of commits r29462 and r29469.)
Also, fix the following tests:

stdlib/NumericDiagnostics.swift.gyb

This post-hoc diagnostic replaces r24915, r25045, and r25054 by doing a
very basic check for representation incompatibility between two types.
More cases can be added as necessary.

Swift SVN r25117
This re-applies r24987, reverted in r24990, with a fix for a spuriously-
introduced error: don't use a favored constraint in a disjunction to avoid
applying a fix. (Why not? Because favoring bubbles up, i.e. the
/disjunction/ becomes favored even if the particular branch is eventually
rejected.) This doesn't seem to affect the outcome, though: the other
branch of the disjunction doesn't seem to be tried anyway.
Finishes rdar://problem/19600325
Swift SVN r25054
And even if we don't suggest wrapping in a closure (say, because there's
already a closure involved), emit a more relevant diagnostic anyway.
(Wordsmithing welcome.)
Wrapping a function value in a closure essentially explicitly inserts a
conversion thunk that we should eventually be able to implicitly insert;
that's rdar://problem/19517003.
Part of rdar://problem/19600325
Swift SVN r24987
These haven't ever been safe in Swift's development because they require
generating thunks, and we currently don't do that. However, we were letting
existential conversions slip through the cracks because we consider them
subtypes, so that /metatype/ conversions work correctly. To be concrete:
"let _: Any.Type = Int.self" is okay.
"let _: (Int) -> Void = { (_: Any) -> Void in return }" is not.
We should implement this some day; that's rdar://problem/19517003.
This produces some lousy error messages, which I intend to fix soon.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.
Swift SVN r24504
These changes make the following improvements to how we generate diagnostics for expression typecheck failure:
- Customizing a diagnostic for a specific expression kind is as easy as adding a new method to the FailureDiagnosis class,
and does not require intimate knowledge of the constraint solver’s inner workings.
- As part of this patch, I’ve introduced specialized diagnostics for call, binop, unop, subscript, assignment and inout
expressions, but we can go pretty far with this.
- This also opens up the possibility to customize diagnostics not just for the expression kind, but for the specific types
involved as well.
- For the purpose of presenting accurate type info, partially-specialized subexpressions are individually re-typechecked
free of any contextual types. This allows us to:
- Properly surface subexpression errors.
- Almost completely avoid any type variables in our diagnostics. In cases where they could not be eliminated, we now
substitute in "_".
- More accurately indicate the sources of errors.
- We do a much better job of diagnosing disjunction failures. (So no more nonsensical ‘UInt8’ error messages.)
- We now present reasonable error messages for overload resolution failures, informing the user of partially-matching
parameter lists when possible.
At the very least, these changes address the following bugs:

The old ones were:
- print/println
- printAny
- printf
- Console
The new printing story is just print/println. Every object can be printed.
You can customize the way it is printed by adopting Printable protocol. Full
details in comments inside stdlib/core/OutputStream.swift.
Printing is not completely finished yet. We still have ReplPrintable, which
should be removed, string interpolation still uses String constructors, and
printing objects that don't conform to Printable will result in printing
mangled names.
Swift SVN r18001
difference is that a concrete type's conformance to an existential
type is considered a conversion (but not a subtyping). Relationships
between two existential types are (non-trivial) subtyping relationships.
