In order for availability checks in iOS apps to be evaluated correctly when
running on macOS, the application binary must call a copy of
`_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast_AEIC()` that was emitted into the app, instead of
calling the `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast()` function provided by the standard
library. This is because the call to the underlying compiler-rt function
`__isPlatformVersionAtLeast()` must be given the correct platform identifier
argument; if the call is not emitted into the client, then the macOS platform
identifier is used and the iOS version number will be mistakenly interpreted as
a macOS version number at runtime.
The `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast()` function in the standard library is marked
`@_transparent` on iOS so that its call to `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast_AEIC()`
is always inlined into the client. This works for the code generated by normal
`if #available` checks, but for the `@backDeployed` function thunks, the calls
to `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast()` were not being inlined and that was causing
calls to `@backDeployed` functions to crash in iOS apps running on macOS since
their availability checks were being misevaluated.
The SIL optimizer has a heuristic which inhibits mandatory inlining in
functions that are classified as thunks, in order to save code size. This
heuristic needs to be relaxed in `@backDeployed` thunks, so that mandatory
inlining of `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast()` can behave as expected. The change
should be safe since the only `@_transparent` function a `@backDeployed` thunk
is ever expected to call is `_stdlib_isOSVersionAtLeast()`.

To enable those clients which care only about _blocks_ whose
instructions or dead-defs make up the liveness boundary to avoid
iterating instruction lists, enhance boundary computation with a second
type (`PrunedLivenessBlockBoundary`) and migrate some methods from
liveness onto the boundary types to enable dispatching on the boundary
type to do only the amount of analysis that's necessary.
Instead of adding a "flag" (`m` in `...Tgm5`) make it more generic to allow to drop any unused argument.
Add all dropped arguments with a `t<n-1>` (where `<n-1>` is empty for n === 0). For example `...Ttt2g5`.
Make SILLInkage available in SIL as `SIL.Linkage`.
Also, rename the misleading Function and GlobalVariable ABI `isAvailableExternally` to `isDefinedExternally`
