The name was not only long and unwieldy, but inconsistent with our
conscious decision to avoid the use of "elements" in APIs as mostly
redundant.

To limit user confusion when using conditional expressions of type Bool?, we've decided to remove the BooleanType (aka "LogicValue") conformance from optional types. (If users would like to use an expression of type Bool? as a conditional, they'll need to check against nil.)
Note: This change effectively regresses the "case is" pattern over types, since it currently demands a BooleanType conformance. I've filed rdar://problem/17791533 to track reinstating it if necessary.

The global first() and last() algorithms return T?, nil when empty
All .first() and .last() methods became T? vars that are nil when the
Collection is empty

Mechanically add "Type" to the end of any protocol names that don't end
in "Type," "ible," or "able." Also, drop "Type" from the end of any
associated type names, except for those of the *LiteralConvertible
protocols.
There are obvious improvements to make in some of these names, which can
be handled with separate commits.
Fixes <rdar://problem/17165920> Protocols `Integer` etc should get
uglier names.

As before, there may be more things marked @public than we actually want
public. Judicious use of the frontend option -disable-access-control may
help reduce the public surface area of the stdlib.

Keep calm: remember that the standard library has many more public exports
than the average target, and that this contains ALL of them at once.
I also deliberately tried to tag nearly every top-level decl, even if that
was just to explicitly mark things @internal, to make sure I didn't miss
something.
This does export more than we might want to, mostly for protocol conformance
reasons, along with our simple-but-limiting typealias rule. I tried to also
mark things private where possible, but it's really going to be up to the
standard library owners to get this right. This is also only validated
against top-level access control; I haven't fully tested against member-level
access control yet, and none of our semantic restrictions are in place.
Along the way I also noticed bits of stdlib cruft; to keep this patch
understandable, I didn't change any of them.

This is motivated by <rdar://problem/17051606>.
This ends up renaming variables as well, which seems right for
consistency since we use "predicate" as variable name.

It was too easily confused with IndexingGenerator, which, come to think
of it may be obsolete. It's just a PermutationGenerator with
startIndex..endIndex in the indices sequence.
