Introduce metadata and runtime support for describing conformances to
"suppressible" protocols such as `Copyable`. The metadata changes occur
in several different places:
* Context descriptors gain a flag bit to indicate when the type itself has
suppressed one or more suppressible protocols (e.g., it is `~Copyable`).
When the bit is set, the context will have a trailing
`SuppressibleProtocolSet`, a 16-bit bitfield that records one bit for
each suppressed protocol. Types with no suppressed conformances will
leave the bit unset (so the metadata is unchanged), and older runtimes
don't look at the bit, so they will ignore the extra data.
* Generic context descriptors gain a flag bit to indicate when the type
has conditional conformances to suppressible protocols. When set,
there will be trailing metadata containing another
`SuppressibleProtocolSet` (a subset of the one in the main context
descriptor) indicating which suppressible protocols have conditional
conformances, followed by the actual lists of generic requirements
for each of the conditional conformances. Again, if there are no
conditional conformances to suppressible protocols, the bit won't be
set. Old runtimes ignore the bit and any trailing metadata.
* Generic requirements get a new "kind", which provides an ignored
protocol set (another `SuppressibleProtocolSet`) stating which
suppressible protocols should *not* be checked for the subject type
of the generic requirement. For example, this encodes a requirement
like `T: ~Copyable`. These generic requirements can occur anywhere
that there is a generic requirement list, e.g., conditional
conformances and extended existentials. Older runtimes handle unknown
generic requirement kinds by stating that the requirement isn't
satisfied.
Extend the runtime to perform checking of the suppressible
conformances on generic arguments as part of checking generic
requirements. This checking follows the defaults of the language, which
is that every generic argument must conform to each of the suppressible
protocols unless there is an explicit generic requirement that states
which suppressible protocols to ignore. Thus, a generic parameter list
`<T, Y where T: ~Escapable>` will check that `T` is `Copyable` but
not that it is `Escapable`, and check that `U` is both `Copyable` and
`Escapable`. To implement this, we collect the ignored protocol sets
from these suppressed requirements while processing the generic
requirements, then check all of the generic arguments against any
conformances not suppressed.
Answering the actual question "does `X` conform to `Copyable`?" (for
any suppressible protocol) looks at the context descriptor metadata to
answer the question, e.g.,
1. If there is no "suppressed protocol set", then the type conforms.
This covers types that haven't suppressed any conformances, including
all types that predate noncopyable generics.
2. If the suppressed protocol set doesn't contain `Copyable`, then the
type conforms.
3. If the type is generic and has a conditional conformance to
`Copyable`, evaluate the generic requirements for that conditional
conformance to answer whether it conforms.
The procedure above handles the bits of a `SuppressibleProtocolSet`
opaquely, with no mapping down to specific protocols. Therefore, the
same implementation will work even with future suppressible protocols,
including back deployment.
The end result of this is that we can dynamically evaluate conditional
conformances to protocols that depend on conformances to suppressible
protocols.
Implements rdar://123466649.
Ensure that context descriptor pointers are signed in the runtime by putting the ptrauth_struct attribute on the types.
We use the new __builtin_ptrauth_struct_key/disc to conditionally apply ptrauth_struct to TrailingObjects based on the signing of the base type, so that pointers to TrailingObjects get signed when used with a context descriptor pointer.
We add new runtime entrypoints that take signed pointers where appropriate, and have the compiler emit calls to the new entrypoints when targeting a sufficiently new OS.

Currently ignored, but this will allow future compilers to pass down source location information for cast
failure runtime errors without backward deployment constraints.
We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

* Remove RegisterPreservingCC. It was unused.
* Remove DefaultCC from the runtime. The distinction between C_CC and DefaultCC
was unused and inconsistently applied. Separate C_CC and DefaultCC are
still present in the compiler.
* Remove function pointer indirection from runtime functions except those
that are used by Instruments. The remaining Instruments interface is
expected to change later due to function pointer liability.
* Remove swift_rt_ wrappers. Function pointers are an ABI liability that we
don't want, and there are better ways to get nonlazy binding if we need it.
The fully custom wrappers were only needed for RegisterPreservingCC and
for optimizing the Instruments function pointers.
