b5f36f7bea IRGen: Use known value witnesses in generic metadata patterns.
We were unnecessarily conservative here; generic metadata patterns support indirectable references
to value witness tables exported by the standard library, so if we have a fixed-layout generic
type that matches a known value witness table layout, use that instead of generating a new
value witness table.

9bbbe2c418 Update the metadata-initialization ABI:
- Create the value witness table as a separate global object instead
  of concatenating it to the metadata pattern.

- Always pass the metadata to the runtime and let the runtime handle
  instantiating or modifying the value witness table.

- Pass the right layout algorithm version to the runtime; currently
  this is always "Swift 5".

- Create a runtime function to instantiate single-case enums.

Among other things, this makes the copying of the VWT, and any
modifications of it, explicit and in the runtime, which is more
future-proof.

8a85a9efd5 Use array copy runtime implementation instead of the array value witnesses
And add builtins for the added runtime functions (assign-take, assign-copy).

d61d966451 Use ConstantInitBuilder in most kinds of metadata emission.
This is NFC in intent, but I had to restructure the code to emit more
of the lists "inline", which means I inevitably altered some IRGen
emission patterns in ways that are visible to tests:

- GenClass emits property/ivar/whatever descriptors in a somewhat
  different order.

- An ext method type list is now emitted as just an array, not a struct
  containing only that array.

- Protocol descriptors are no longer emitted as packed structs.

I was sorely tempted to stop using packed structs for all the metadata
emission, but didn't really want to update that many tests in one go.
