Now that all the machinery is in place, the ClassMetadataBuilder
can (more accurately) query the ClassLayout instead of trying to
re-derive whether the field offset vector is dependent, etc.
Apart from performing dynamic layout for resiliently-sized fields
in concrete classes, this also lets us *skip* dynamic layout
if we have a generic class without any dependent fields.
I haven't tested subclassing with resilient field layout yet, but
getting that working is the next step and should not be too much
work.
Also, swift_initClassMetadata_UniversalStrategy() only stores
the computed field offsets in the field offset globals when the
Objective-C runtime is available, because it gets the offset
pointers from the Objective-C class rodata. On Linux, we will
need to emit code to copy from the field offset vector into
field offset globals in IRGen. This is pretty easy, but I'll do
it in a follow-up patch so for now the new execution test is
XFAIL'd on Linux.
There's still work left to do. In terms of next steps, there's still rdar://problem/22126141, which covers removing the 'workaround' overloads for print (that prevent bogus overload resolution failures), as well as providing a decent diagnostic when users invoke print with 'appendNewline'.
Swift SVN r30976
correct preconditions for ObjC layout, and write the
computed offsets back to global ivar offset variables
when present.
Swift will use the global variables for accesses to
ivars when it can show that their offsets are
non-dependent.
Fixes a major problem with generic subclasses of ObjC
classes whose dynamic layout does not match the layout
in their @interface.

Previously the "as" keyword could either represent coercion or or forced
downcasting. This change separates the two notions. "as" now only means
type conversion, while the new "as!" operator is used to perform forced
downcasting. If a program uses "as" where "as!" is called for, we emit a
diagnostic and fixit.
Internally, this change removes the UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr class, in
favor of directly instantiating CoerceExpr when parsing the "as"
operator, and ForcedCheckedCastExpr when parsing the "as!" operator.

There's a bit of a reshuffle of the ExplicitCastExpr subclasses:
- The existing ConditionalCheckedCastExpr expression node now represents
"as?".
- A new ForcedCheckedCastExpr node represents "as" when it is a
downcast.
- CoerceExpr represents "as" when it is a coercion.
- A new UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr node describes "as" before it has
been type-checked down to ForcedCheckedCastExpr or CoerceExpr. This
wasn't a strictly necessary change, but it helps us detangle what's
going on.
There are a few new diagnostics to help users avoid getting bitten by
as/as? mistakes:
- Custom errors when a forced downcast (as) is used as the operand
of postfix '!' or '?', with Fix-Its to remove the '!' or make the
downcast conditional (with as?), respectively.
- A warning when a forced downcast is injected into an optional,
with a suggestion to use a conditional downcast.
- A new error when the postfix '!' is used for a contextual
downcast, with a Fix-It to replace it with "as T" with the
contextual type T.
Lots of test updates, none of which felt like regressions. The new
tests are in test/expr/cast/optionals.swift.
