Most of this is in updating the standard library, SDK overlays, and
piles of test cases to use the new names. No surprises here, although
this shows us some potential heuristic tweaks.
There is one substantive compiler change that needs to be factored out
involving synthesizing calls to copyWithZone()/copy(zone:). Aside from
that, there are four failing tests:
Swift :: ClangModules/objc_parse.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/Foundation_test.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/archiving_generic_swift_class.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/objc_currying.swift
due to two independent remaining compiler bugs:
* We're not getting partial ordering between NSCoder's
encode(AnyObject, forKey: String) and NSKeyedArchiver's version of
that method, and
* Dynamic lookup (into AnyObject) doesn't know how to find the new
names. We need the Swift name lookup tables enabled to address this.
r31634 mistakenly treated all dispatch_block_ts as nonnull, because we've
never had to deal with a mapped typedef that refers to a pointer type.
('SEL' will eventually have the same issue, but for now the Swift
'Selector' type just has nil as an inhabitant.)

Some GCD APIs rely on the pointer identity of blocks, so avoid bridging
when possible. The easiest way to do this was to use our existing rules
for special-casing typedefs.
The summary text for dispatch_block_t comes from the actual GCD headers.

allowing these failures to hook into other diagnostic goodies (e.g. the
"did you mean to use '!' or '?'?" cases showing in the testsuite). That said,
by itself this doesn't have a huge impact, but avoids regressions with other
pending changes.

down to call argument lists that have more than one operand (heavily leveraging
"computeTupleShuffle"). This resolves a great number of QoI radars, including
things like:
<rdar://problem/19981782> QoI: poor diagnostic for call to memcmp with UInt length parameter
where we used to produce:
error: cannot invoke 'memcmp' with an argument list of type '([UInt8], [UInt8], UInt)'
return memcmp(left, right, UInt(left.count)) == 0
^
note: expected an argument list of type '(UnsafePointer<Void>, UnsafePointer<Void>, Int)'
but now we produce:
error: cannot convert value of type 'UInt' to expected argument type 'Int'
return memcmp(left, right, UInt(left.count)) == 0
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
which is more "to the point"
Swift SVN r30930
Block types can't be used in structs (because they're managed by ARC),
are rarely referred to by pointers, and would pretty much never be
globals. Additionally, their syntax is complicated enough that people
tend to make typedefs for them fairly frequently. We'd like to preserve
that sugar, but we don't really need to preserve the representation
when the most likely use of the block is in a bridged context (e.g. a
method parameter). In the rare case where the representation /is/
important, fall back to re-importing the underlying type.
rdar://problem/22013912
Swift SVN r30738
This is usually a more helpful type than our alternative, 'NSObject', although
it's not Equatable or Hashable. Since pretty much everything from Objective-C
inherits from NSObject, though, keeping the protocol qualifiers is much more
useful from a type-safety perspective.
The particular benefit for this comes with a change to libdispatch's <os/object.h>:
with dispatch types all declaring that they inherit from NSObjectProtocol, the
canonical form of the imported 'dispatch_queue_t' is now just a simple protocol
reference. That's type-safe as above, but is also a type that can be extended.

This is required to correctly use the mock SDK when the SDK overlay is
built and tested separately. (Otherwise, the mock SDK might not get
used, because the overlay SDK options would expand from the
%-substitution, appear first on the command line, and shadow the mock
SDK in the search path).
Swift SVN r25185
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.

These changes make the following improvements to how we generate diagnostics for expression typecheck failure:
- Customizing a diagnostic for a specific expression kind is as easy as adding a new method to the FailureDiagnosis class,
and does not require intimate knowledge of the constraint solver’s inner workings.
- As part of this patch, I’ve introduced specialized diagnostics for call, binop, unop, subscript, assignment and inout
expressions, but we can go pretty far with this.
- This also opens up the possibility to customize diagnostics not just for the expression kind, but for the specific types
involved as well.
- For the purpose of presenting accurate type info, partially-specialized subexpressions are individually re-typechecked
free of any contextual types. This allows us to:
- Properly surface subexpression errors.
- Almost completely avoid any type variables in our diagnostics. In cases where they could not be eliminated, we now
substitute in "_".
- More accurately indicate the sources of errors.
- We do a much better job of diagnosing disjunction failures. (So no more nonsensical ‘UInt8’ error messages.)
- We now present reasonable error messages for overload resolution failures, informing the user of partially-matching
parameter lists when possible.
At the very least, these changes address the following bugs:

Doing so is safe even though we have mock SDK. The include paths for
modules with the same name in the real and mock SDKs are different, and
the module files will be distinct (because they will have a different
hash).
This reduces test runtime on OS X by 30% and brings it under a minute on
a 16-core machine.
This also uncovered some problems with some tests -- even when run for
iOS configurations, some tests would still run with macosx triple. I
fixed the tests where I noticed this issue.

Previously, we were relying on objc_retain to retain the closure, but
closure contexts aren't actually id-compatible. Now we use a C++ RAII
object for Swift to manage the closure context retain count.
In the process, Joe and I discovered that the closure context was being
passed to the conversion shim at +0; that has now been fixed to be +1.
