A static reference to DynamicSelfType can only be written as an
implicit member expression where the contextual type is a
DynamicSelfType, ie, 'return .init(...)' in a static method
returning Self.
In this case, the base expression is not a statically-derived
metatype.
If the base value was 'self', we were allowing a reference to a
non-required initializer, because you're allowed to do this inside
another initializer.
But if you're in a static method, 'self.init' should obey the same
restrictions as 'foo.init' for any other metatype value 'foo'.
- All parts of the compiler now use ‘P1 & P2’ syntax
- The demangler and AST printer wrap the composition in parens if it is
in a metatype lookup
- IRGen mangles compositions differently
- “protocol<>” is now “swift.Any”
- “protocol<_TP1P,_TP1Q>” is now “_TP1P&_TP1Q”
- Tests cases are updated and added to test the new syntax and mangling
This commit defines the ‘Any’ keyword, implements parsing for composing
types with an infix ‘&’, and provides a fixit to convert ‘protocol<>’
- Updated tests & stdlib for new composition syntax
- Provide errors when compositions used in inheritance.
Any is treated as a contextual keyword. The name ‘Any’
is used emit the empty composition type. We have to
stop user declaring top level types spelled ‘Any’ too.
- Have DiagnosticEngine produce "aka" annotations for sugared types.
- Fix the "optional type '@lvalue C?' cannot be used as a boolean; test for '!= nil' instead"
diagnostic to stop printing @lvalue noise.

This makes it clearer that expressions like "foo.myType.init()" are creating new objects, instead of invoking a weird-looking method. The last part of rdar://problem/21375845.

If P is a protocol, calling static methods or constructors
via values of type P.Protocol makes no sense, so let's prohibit
this.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

attribute is a "modifier" of a decl, not an "attribute" and thus shouldn't
be spelt with an @ sign. Teach the parser to parse "@foo" but reject it with
a nice diagnostic and a fixit if "foo" is a decl modifier.
Move 'dynamic' over to this (since it simplifies some code), and switch the
@optional and @required attributes to be declmodifiers (eliminating their @'s).

An arbitrary value of class metatype cannot be used to construct an
object, because there's no guarantee that a given subclass will
provide that initializer.
