It is really involved to change how methods and classes are emitted into
the header so this patch introduces the impression of nested structs
through using statements and still emits the structs themselves as top
level structs. It emits them in their own namespace to avoid name
collisions. This patch also had to change some names to be fully
qualified to avoid some name lookup errors in case of nested structs.
Moreover, nesting level of 3 and above requires C++17 because it relies
on nested namespaces. Only nested structs are supported, not nested
classes.
Since this patch is already started to grow quite big, I decided to put
it out for reviews and plan to address some of the shortcomings in a
follow-up PR.

This is phase-1 of switching from llvm::Optional to std::optional in the
next rebranch. llvm::Optional was removed from upstream LLVM, so we need
to migrate off rather soon. On Darwin, std::optional, and llvm::Optional
have the same layout, so we don't need to be as concerned about ABI
beyond the name mangling. `llvm::Optional` is only returned from one
function in
```
getStandardTypeSubst(StringRef TypeName,
bool allowConcurrencyManglings);
```
It's the return value, so it should not impact the mangling of the
function, and the layout is the same as `std::optional`, so it should be
mostly okay. This function doesn't appear to have users, and the ABI was
already broken 2 years ago for concurrency and no one seemed to notice
so this should be "okay".
I'm doing the migration incrementally so that folks working on main can
cherry-pick back to the release/5.9 branch. Once 5.9 is done and locked
away, then we can go through and finish the replacement. Since `None`
and `Optional` show up in contexts where they are not `llvm::None` and
`llvm::Optional`, I'm preparing the work now by going through and
removing the namespace unwrapping and making the `llvm` namespace
explicit. This should make it fairly mechanical to go through and
replace llvm::Optional with std::optional, and llvm::None with
std::nullopt. It's also a change that can be brought onto the
release/5.9 with minimal impact. This should be an NFC change.
Each emitted declaration is annotated with the external_source_symbol with its own USR, to allow Clang's indexer to recognize this declaration as a Swift declaration with a specific USR
