expression applications
(rdar://problem/15933674, rdar://problem/17365394 and many, many dupes.)
When solving for the type of a binOp expression, factor the operand expression
types into account when collating overloads for the operator being applied.
This allows the type checker to now infer types for some binary operations with
hundreds of nested components, whereas previously we could only handle a handful.
(E.g., "1+2+3+4+5+6" previously sent the compiler into a tailspin.)
Specifically, if one of the operands is a literal, favor operator overloads
whose operand, result or contextual types are the default type of the literal
convertible conformance of the the argument literal type.
By doing so we can prevent exponential behavior in the solver and massively
reduce the complexity of many commonly found constraint systems. At the same
time, we'll still defer to "better" overloads if the default one cannot be
applied. (When adding an Int8 to an Int, for example.)
This obviously doesn't solve all of our performance problems (there are more
changes coming), but there are couple of nice side-effects:
- By tracking literal/convertible protocol conformance info within type
variables, I can potentially eliminate many instances of "$T0" and the
like from our diagnostics.
- Favored constraints are placed at the front of the overload resolution
disjunction, so if a system fails to produce a solution they'll be the
first to be mined for a cause. This helps preserve user intent, and leads
to better diagnostics being produced in some cases.

Introduce the new BooleanLiteralConvertible protocol for Boolean
literals. Take "true" and "false" as real keywords (which is most of the
reason for the testsuite churn). Make Bool BooleanLiteralConvertible
and the default Boolean literal type, and ObjCBool
BooleanLiteralConvertible. Fixes <rdar://problem/17405310> and the
recent regression that made ObjCBool not work with true/false.

This consolidates the \x, \u, and \U escape sequences into one \u{abc} escape sequence.
For now we still parse and cleanly reject the old forms with a nice error message, this
will eventually be removed in a later beta (tracked by rdar://17527814)

We haven't been advertising this syntax much, and it's closure form
was completely broken anyway, so don't jump through hoops to provide
great Fix-Its here.

DiscardAssignment expressions are special in that during constraint generation they'll introduce a new type variable, but not place any constraints upon it. (They are the only expression kind that behaves in this way.) If no subsequent expressions constrain the type variable, we may end up with a failed constraint system that's devoid of constraints, and hence no information to synthesize a diagnostic from. With no diagnostic associated with the DiscardAssignmentExpr's source location, we'll attempt to generate SIL and raise an assertion failure. Fortunately, we can detect these cases during the constraint salvage phase, and raise an appropriate error.

One difficulty in generating reasonable diagnostic data for type check failures has been the fact that many constraints had been synthesized without regard for where they were rooted in the program source. The result of this was that even though we would store failure information for specific constraints, we wouldn't emit it for lack of a source location. By making location data a non-optional component of constraints, we can begin diagnosing type check errors closer to their point of failure.

- rdar://problem/16776273, wherein conversions between nil and .None were permitted
due to an implicit conversion between nil and COpaquePointer.
- rdar://problem/16877526, where we needed to add new equality overloads to handle
conversions between nil and .None given the supression of user conversions.
(Some minor tweaks this time around for better interoperability with AnyObject.)

(Thanks to Ted for the overloads and test.)

I didn't want to rip this logic out wholesale. There is a possibility
the character lexing can be reborn/revisited later, and
disabling it in the parser was easy.

There's a lot more work to do here, but start to categorize tests
along the lines of what a specification might look like, with
directories (chapters) for basic concepts, declarations, expressions,
statements, etc.
