The goal of this series of commits is to allow the main module to consist
of both source files and AST files, where the AST files represent files
that were already built and don't need to be rebuilt, or of Swift source
files and imported Clang headers that share a module (because they are in
the same target).
Currently modules are divided into different kinds, and that defines how
decls are looked up, how imports are managed, etc. In order to achieve the
goal above, that polymorphism should be pushed down to the individual units
within a module, so that instead of TranslationUnit, BuiltinModule,
SerializedModule, and ClangModule, we have SourceFile, BuiltinUnit,
SerializedFile, and ClangUnit. (Better names welcome.) At that point we can
hopefully collapse TranslationUnit into Module and make Module non-polymorphic.
This commit makes SourceFile the subclass of an abstract FileUnit, and
makes TranslationUnit hold an array of FileUnits instead of SourceFiles.
To demonstrate that this is actually working, the Builtin module has also
been converted to FileUnit: it is now a TranslationUnit containing a single
BuiltinUnit.

Instead of hardcoding Builtin.Word to be an alias for Builtin.Int64, make it its own type of abstract pointer width.
- Change BuiltinIntegerType's width representation to accommodate abstract widths.
- In the AST and in SIL, store values of the types as the greatest supported size for the abstract width (64 bits for a pointer).
- Add some type safety to the ([sz]ext|trunc)(OrBitCast)? builtins that they're used appropriately given the upper and lower bounds of the abstract sizes they're working with.
- Now that Builtin.Word is a distinct type, give it its own mangling.
- In IRGen, lower pointer-sized BuiltinIntegerType appropriately for the target, and truncate lowered SIL values if necessary.

I tried hard find all references to 'func' in documentation, comments and
diagnostics, but I am sure that I missed a few. If you find something, please
let me know.

Pull the implicit 'Self' associated type out of the protocol and into
an implicitly-declared generic parameter list for the protocol. This
makes all of the methods of a protocol polymorphic, e.g., given
protocol P {
typealias Assoc
func getAssoc() -> Assoc
}
the type of P.getAssoc is:
<Self : P> (self : @inout P) -> () -> Self.Assoc
This directly expresses the notion that protocol methods are
polymorphic, even though 'Self' is always implicitly bound. It can be
used to simplify IRgen and some parts of the type checker, as well as
laying more of the groundwork for default definitions within
protocols as well as sundry other improvements to the generics
system.
There are a number of moving parts that needed to be updated in tandem
for this. In no particular order:
- Protocols always get an implicit generic parameter list, with a
single generic parameter 'Self' that conforms to the protocol itself.
- The 'Self' archetype type now knows which protocol it is
associated with (since we can no longer point it at the Self
associated type declaration).
- Protocol methods now get interface types (i.e., canonicalizable
dependent function types).
- The "all archetypes" list for a polymorphic function type does not
include the Self archetype nor its nested types, because they are
handled implicitly. This avoids the need to rework IRGen's handling
of archetypes for now.
- When (de-)serializing a XREF for a function type that has an
interface type, use the canonicalized interface type, which can be
meaningfully compared during deserialization (unlike the
PolymorphicFunctionType we'd otherwise be dealing with).
- Added a SIL-specific type attribute @sil_self, which extracts the
'Self' archetype of a protocol, because we can no longer refer to
the associated type "P.Self".
Swift SVN r9066
Introduces a new kind of function type, GenericFunctionType, that
represents a polymorphic function type with all of its generic
parameters and requirements stored in a more readily canonicalizable
form. It is meant to eventually replace PolymorphicFunctionType, but
for now we build it up in parallel so we can switch over to it
pieacemeal.
Note: this representation is built and then thrown away. We'll start
recording it soon.
Swift SVN r8881
When type checking, allow the caller to customize the resolution of generic
type parameter types based on the context, for example, by choosing to
substitute in an archetype (or not) and allowing one to resolve a dependent
member reference via a specific archetype.
No actual functionality change here.
Swift SVN r8797
Right now the type checker is responsible for marking known protocols in the
imported AST for 'swift' module. If we don’t run the type checker, known
protocols are not marked correctly.
This patch moves the code to mark known protocols from libSema to libAST and
calls it when we load the standard library module.
Motivation: Swift tools might want to deserialize a module and inspect the AST
(for example, print it). There is no need to invoke the type checker in this
case, and we don’t even have a TU.
Swift SVN r8704
The type substitution still depends fairly heavily on the type
checker, which is accessed via the LazyResolver abstract
interface. That interface should get simpler, and become unnecessary
except to deal with lazy type checking, over time. At that point, it
will become optional, and Type::subst() will be usable without a type
checker around.
Swift SVN r8099
Fixes two bugs in Clang importer and deserialization code that were found by
the verifier:
(1) FuncExprs were created with a null FuncDecl
(2) BoundGenericType that was created by Clang importer for UnsafePtr<> and
other magic types did not have substitutions.
Swift SVN r8073
The new ConcreteDeclRef class provides a possibly-speciaized reference
to a declaration, which allows DynamicMemberRefExpr to refer to both
generic and non-generic members. without having to split the AST node.
Swift SVN r7839
functions whenever we build a reference to a [weak]
variable in the AST.
We're going to consume this during SIL-gen, so the
assumption here is that we never do SIL-gen of an Expr
that we didn't run through the type-checker.
Swift SVN r7716
We previously relied on the type checker to fill in the implementation
types (swift.Slice<T> and swift.Optional<T>, respectively), which
limited our ability to perform type transformations in the AST. Now,
the AST knows how to form these implementation types on demand.
Swift SVN r7587
This breaks the type-canonicalization link between a generic parameter
type and the archetype to which it maps. Generic type parameter types
are now separate entities (that can eventually be canonicalized) from
archetypes (rather than just being sugar).
Most of the front end still traffics in archetypes. As a step away
from this, allow us to type-check the generic parameter list's types
prior to wiring the generic type parameter declarations to archetypes,
using the new "dependent" member type to describe assocaited
types. The archetype builder understands dependent member types and
uses them to map down to associated types when building archetypes.
Once we have assigned archetypes, we revert the dependent identifier
types within the generic parameter list to an un-type-checked state
and do the type checking again in the presence of archetypes, so that
nothing beyond the generic-parameter-list checking code has to deal
with dependent types. We'll creep support out to other dependent types
elsewhere over time.
