Metatypes have no user-visible structure, but can at least summarize as their type names. This gives us reasonable ad-hoc Printable behavior (thought debugPrint is still wrong, since a type name isn't parsable without being .self'ed).

normalization
There is still some obscure bug with != on NSString, probably caused by
an ill-thought overload somewhere.

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.

1) Add an ObjCObject disposition that tells us this Mirror is reflecting upon an ObjC-imported type
2) Change the default summary of _ClassMirror and _StructMirror to be the mangled typename, with no children count

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.
Swift SVN r19353
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 our public API for how quicklooks work in the debugger, and the plan is to have this same API work in playgrounds as well

The <opaque> output is clearly useless, and annoying to see scattered around playgrounds
We don't have bandwidth right now to produce detailed useful reflection information, but at least show a basic understanding of data

assert() and fatalError()
These functions are meant to be used in user code. They are enabled in debug
mode and disabled in release or fast mode.
_precondition() and _preconditionFailure()
These functions are meant to be used in library code to check preconditions at
the api boundry. They are enabled in debug mode (with a verbose message) and
release mode (trap). In fast mode they are disabled.
_debugPrecondition() and _debugPreconditionFailure()
These functions are meant to be used in library code to check preconditions that
are not neccesarily comprehensive for safety (UnsafePointer can be null or an
invalid pointer but we can't check both). They are enabled only in debug mode.
_sanityCheck() and _fatalError()
These are meant to be used for internal consistency checks. They are only
enabled when the library is build with -DSWIFT_STDLIB_INTERNAL_CHECKS=ON.
I modified the code in the standard library to the best of my judgement.

The old ones were:
- print/println
- printAny
- printf
- Console
The new printing story is just print/println. Every object can be printed.
You can customize the way it is printed by adopting Printable protocol. Full
details in comments inside stdlib/core/OutputStream.swift.
Printing is not completely finished yet. We still have ReplPrintable, which
should be removed, string interpolation still uses String constructors, and
printing objects that don't conform to Printable will result in printing
mangled names.
Swift SVN r18001
Define a "Mirror" protocol with methods for querying the number of children a structured value has, getting the name and mirror for each of those children, and a string and "IDE representation" of the value, as needed by playgrounds and by our planned generic printing facility.
In the runtime, define a "reflect" function that can provide a Mirror for any object, either using a "Reflectable" protocol conformance if available, or falling back to a magic implementation in the runtime that grovels the type metadata. Stub out a bare minimum default implementation.
