inside a swift ast section in an object file so it can be passed to the
linker. The driver automatically wraps merged swiftmodules iff the target
is ELF.

...so that the debugger has the best possible chance of being able to load
the app properly.
We don't do this for frameworks today because we don't want to leak this
information into the public module; once we have a distinction between
"the module that ships with the framework" and "the module that goes into
the debug info" we can do this for frameworks as well.

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.

Rather than embed AST info directly in binaries, we now include a special
symbol table entry that points to the serialized AST as a separate file.
This requires a very recent version of ld.
We still want to support the __SWIFT,__ast section in a binary because
that's how it's modeled in dSYM, so manually test both modes in
ASTSection_linker.swift.

We do this so that the swiftmodule file contains all info necessary to
reconstruct the AST for debugging purposes. If the swiftmodule file is copied
into a dSYM bundle, it can (in theory) be used to debug a built app months
later. The header is processed with -frewrite-includes so that it includes
any non-modular content; the user will not have to recreate their project
structure and header maps to reload the AST.
There is some extra complexity here: a target with a bridging header
(such as a unit test target) may depend on another target with a bridging
header (such as an app target). This is a rare case, but one we'd like to
still keep working. However, if both bridging headers import some common.h,
we have a problem, because -frewrite-includes will lose the once-ness
of #import. Therefore, we /also/ store the path, size, and mtime of a
bridging header in the swiftmodule, and prefer to use a regular parse from
the original file if it can be located and hasn't been changed.

Now that we don't use the wrapper around the serialized module in the
__SWIFT,__ast section, we just need to verify that (a) we can read these
bare modules out from a Mach-O file, and (b) the new driver creates these
modules correctly.
