In some cases, it's useful to allow an availability macro to expand to an empty
availability specification list. Allow developers to express this using macros
that are defined to exactly the string `*`, while continuing to reject `*` in
availability macros that contain other entries.
The concurrency runtime now deploys back to macOS 10.15, iOS 13.0, watchOS 6.0, tvOS 13.0, which corresponds to the 5.1 release of the stdlib.
Adjust macro usages accordingly.
Introduce availability macros defined by a frontend flag.
This feature makes it possible to set the availability
versions at the moment of compilation instead of having
it hard coded in the sources. It can be used by projects
with a need to change the availability depending on the
compilation context while using the same sources.
The availability macro is defined with the `-define-availability` flag:
swift MyLib.swift -define-availability "_iOS8Aligned:macOS 10.10, iOS 8.0" ..
The macro can be used in code instead of a platform name and version:
@available(_iOS8Aligned, *)
public func foo() {}
