class B<T> : NSFoo {}
class A : B<Int> {}
IRGen computes the ivar layout starting from offset zero, since
the size of the 'NSFoo' is unknown and we rely on the Objective-C
runtime to slide the ivar offsets.
The instantiated metadata for B<Int> would contain a field offset
vector with the correct offsets, because of how
swift_initClassMetadata_UniversalStrategy() works.
However, A's metadata is emitted statically, and this includes a
copy of the field offset vector from the superclass. A's metadata
was initialized by swift_initializeSuperclass(), which did not
copy the field offset vector over from A<Int>. And since the
Objective-C runtime only slides the immediate ivars of a class,
the field offsets corresponding to A<Int>'s fields in B's type
metadata were never slid, resulting in problems when an instance
of B was passed to a function operating on an A<T> generically.
Fixes <rdar://problem/23200051>.
correct preconditions for ObjC layout, and write the
computed offsets back to global ivar offset variables
when present.
Swift will use the global variables for accesses to
ivars when it can show that their offsets are
non-dependent.
Fixes a major problem with generic subclasses of ObjC
classes whose dynamic layout does not match the layout
in their @interface.
