analysis for patterns.
Major changes:
1. We no longer try to compute the types of functions in the parser.
2. The type of a function always matches the type of the argument patterns.
3. Every FuncDecl now has a corresponding FuncExpr; that FuncExpr might not
have a body, though.
4. We now use a new class "ExprHandle" so that both a pattern and a type
can hold a reference to the same expression.
Hopefully this will be a more reasonable foundation for further changes to
how we compute the types of FuncDecls in generics and for the implementation
of type location information.

and use this information as cues in the language. Right now,
we do not accept things like "-- *i" because the prefix
operator is not correctly right-bound; instead you have to
write "--(*i)". I'm okay with that; I did add a specialized
diagnostic recognizing operator-binary in a place where we're
expecting a potential operator-prefix.

e.g. "foo is \(i+j)". This implements rdar://11223686
Doug implemented all the hard parts of this. I ripped out support for nested string
literals (i.e. string literals within an interpolated string), which simplified the
approach and defined away some problems with his patch in progress. I plan a few refinements
on top of this basic patch.

the appropriate slice type and check the bounds. The
first bound must be a literal or a type with a
getArrayBoundValue method, which has the same recursive
nature as getLogicValue (i.e. it can return a type that
has a getArrayBoundValue that returns an integral type,
but that's it; it's capped at one hop). The rest
of the bounds must be empty (meaning a slice) or
constant under the same conditions as fixed-size
array types.

Per discussion, this should probably be "no newline since the last
token", but that decision should be made simultaneously for ( and [.

The later could represent semantic errors, but we'd rather represent those with an
ExprError node instead. This simplifies the code and allows the parser to build a more
fully-formed AST that IDE clients will like.

but not operators. Audit calls to make sure that we use the right one
in the right places. This allows us to reject structs named * for example.

- introduce the concept of qualifiers on l-value types
- teach overload resolution and coercion how to drop explicitness
- require explicitness on normal [byref] arguments
- make 'this' [byref(implicit)]
- special-case '&' as a unary operator in the parser to make it
produce an expression which type-checks as turning implicit l-values
into explicit ones.
Obvious missing pieces:
- updating LangRef
- we should really complain about ever trying to rvalue-convert an
explicit l-value
- maybe qualification should play a part in overload resolution
- we should diagnose attempts to declare unary '&' operators
- there's a test case in expressions.swift which suggests my logic is
slightly off
But I am out of time, and these will have to wait.

A function argument clause is now one or more patterns (which
must be parenthesized and explicitly type all positions) not
separated by arrows; the first arrow then separates off the
return type.
Revisions to language reference forthcoming.

in a FuncExpr. This coincidentally means that we can
create the FuncExpr before we create the ArgDecls and
thus avoid the need to reparent them all.
