The new mirror design passed our API review and blocking bugs have been
fixed/worked-around, so integrating it into the core standard library.

Retire the old components now that the new ones have passed API review.

If the NSError part of the box hasn't been initialized yet, fill it in with the domain and code of the contained value. This will allow us to efficiently turn ErrorType values into NSErrors, either for bridging or for coercion purposes.

Changes compared to the original version:
I fixed the 2 bugs and added a test for the so far undetected missing range check bug.
To keep the SIL simple (4 basic blocks for arr[x]) I extracted the slow path for getElement into a
non-inlinable function.
On the other hand I inlined _typeCheck into the slow-path function.
This speeds up NSArray accesses because now only a single objectAtIndex is required for both
type checking and element retrieving.
Update on performance: DeltaBlue is now only 12% better (and not 25%). I suspect this is because
now Arnold's tail duplication cannot detect the ObjC call in the slow path.

The performance regression that occurred when ++ and -- were added as
requirements to the Index protocols was due to the fact that it caused a
dubious hack of mine to be bypassed: when treated as indices, integer
types are incremented and decremented without overflow checking. While
technically justifiable (see the r20576 commit message), this makes the
standard library extremely fragile and makes successor() and
predecessor() mathematically unsafe. We really should see what the
optimizer team can do to make that hack unnecessary.
In the meantime, instead of dispatching through ++ and --, use a
special, defaulted _[successor|predecessor]InPlace() method to give
indices their own, customizable in-place inc/dec-rement path.

Now that we can check isNative and NoDTC (no deffered type check needed) with a single bit-mask operation,
it makes sense to have a single array property call for it.
I replaced the the semantics call array.props.needsElementTypeCheck with array.props.isNativeNoDTC,
which is the combination of isNative && !needsElementTypeCheck. I kept array.props.isNative, which is not used for now,
but might be useful in the future, e.g. for array operations which don't care about type checks.
The optimized SIL for a class array access arr[i] now contains the minimum of 4 basic blocks.
PerfTests show +25% for DeltaBlue and some improvemements for -Onone.

'x is P' works now, and this function isn't used anywhere except by a test that exercises it. Removing this also lets us remove a swath of otherwise unused helper static functions in the runtime.
Swift SVN r26618
Rename 'assignment' attribute of infix operators to 'mutating'. Add
'has_assignment' attribute, which results in an implicit declaration of
the assignment version of the same operator. Parse "func =foo"
declaration and "foo.=bar" expression. Validate some basic properties of
in-place methods.
Not yet implemented: automatic generation of wrapper for =foo() if foo()
is implemented, or vice versa; likewise for operators.

We have an SPI between the Swift compiler and Foundation based on the
SWIFT_SDK_OVERLAY_FOUNDATION_EPOCH preprocessor macro that allows us to
request the new API. rdar://20270080 tracks removing it.
Swift SVN r26475
With this change we will devirtualize in trivial cases where mandatory
inlining has exposed opportunities due to substituting types, for
example substituting a struct type into a witness_method where we can
now easily determine exactly what method will be called.
This makes it possible to use @transparent on struct methods that are
dispatched via generic functions, resulting in the opportunity to emit
diagnostics for these methods as well as eliminate the overhead of the
indirect call.
I saw a handful of 10+% perf improvements at -Onone on our benchmarks.
In theory this should allow us to remove the overloads for ++/-- in
FixedPoint.swift.gyb without a performance penalty (and with the proper
overflow diagnostics), but unfortunately if we were to do so, we would
currently dispatch to functions that lack runtime overflow
checks (rdar://problem/20226526).

The way we bridge CFStringCreateCopy remains a nasty hack. The patch
attached to <rdar://20185167> is better, but that radar blocks the
better solution.
Fixes <rdar://20031203>.

This changes 'if let' conditions to take general refutable patterns, instead of
taking a irrefutable pattern and implicitly matching against an optional.
Where before you might have written:
if let x = foo() {
you now need to write:
if let x? = foo() {
The upshot of this is that you can write anything in an 'if let' that you can
write in a 'case let' in a switch statement, which is pretty general.
To aid with migration, this special cases certain really common patterns like
the above (and any other irrefutable cases, like "if let (a,b) = foo()", and
tells you where to insert the ?. It also special cases type annotations like
"if let x : AnyObject = " since they are no longer allowed.
For transitional purposes, I have intentionally downgraded the most common
diagnostic into a warning instead of an error. This means that you'll get:
t.swift:26:10: warning: condition requires a refutable pattern match; did you mean to match an optional?
if let a = f() {
^
?
I think this is important to stage in, because this is a pretty significant
source breaking change and not everyone internally may want to deal with it
at the same time. I filed 20166013 to remember to upgrade this to an error.
In addition to being a nice user feature, this is a nice cleanup of the guts
of the compiler, since it eliminates the "isConditional()" bit from
PatternBindingDecl, along with the special case logic in the compiler to handle
it (which variously added and removed Optional around these things).
Swift SVN r26150
"similar", avoiding false positive "not exhaustive" diagnostics on switches
like:
switch ... {
case let x?: break
case .None: break
}
Also, start using x? patterns in the stdlib more (review appreciated!), which
is what shook this issue out.
