Similarly to how we've always handled parameter types, we
now recursively expand tuples in result types and separately
determine a result convention for each result.
The most important code-generation change here is that
indirect results are now returned separately from each
other and from any direct results. It is generally far
better, when receiving an indirect result, to receive it
as an independent result; the caller is much more likely
to be able to directly receive the result in the address
they want to initialize, rather than having to receive it
in temporary memory and then copy parts of it into the
target.
The most important conceptual change here that clients and
producers of SIL must be aware of is the new distinction
between a SILFunctionType's *parameters* and its *argument
list*. The former is just the formal parameters, derived
purely from the parameter types of the original function;
indirect results are no longer in this list. The latter
includes the indirect result arguments; as always, all
the indirect results strictly precede the parameters.
Apply instructions and entry block arguments follow the
argument list, not the parameter list.
A relatively minor change is that there can now be multiple
direct results, each with its own result convention.
This is a minor change because I've chosen to leave
return instructions as taking a single operand and
apply instructions as producing a single result; when
the type describes multiple results, they are implicitly
bound up in a tuple. It might make sense to split these
up and allow e.g. return instructions to take a list
of operands; however, it's not clear what to do on the
caller side, and this would be a major change that can
be separated out from this already over-large patch.
Unsurprisingly, the most invasive changes here are in
SILGen; this requires substantial reworking of both call
emission and reabstraction. It also proved important
to switch several SILGen operations over to work with
RValue instead of ManagedValue, since otherwise they
would be forced to spuriously "implode" buffers.
It seems that for SIL round-tripping to work, we have to emit the
builtin name with the right suffix, otherwise NFC. Noticed by
inspection.

We need to keep the AST formal type of the base around when building up
lvalues.
When the getter or setter involves an accessor call, we would use the
lowered type of the self argument to form the call. However, it might be
at the wrong level of abstraction, causing a @thin -vs- @thick metatype
mismatch. Using the formal type instead allows SILGenApply logic to emit
a thin to thick metatype conversion if necessary.

Add a new convention to describe what happens with
nonzero_result on a type that isn't imported as Bool.
This isn't really a safe convention to implement, but
calls are fine.

When emitting try_apply, don't start a new scope between adding
a cleanup and forwarding the value. This would leave behind a
dead cleanup, which would fire an assertion in emitSharedCaseBlocks().
