Prespecialized records contain direct references to the generic
arguments and protocol witnesses with which it is specialized for now.
Both prespecialized records and the records that are specialized at
runtime gain a trailing pointer-sized flagset. For now, the flags in it
include whether the record was prespecialized and whether it was known
to be canonical at compile time (which is true for prespecialized
records within the module which defines the type whose metadata is
specialized since in those cases the metadata accessor can be modified).

Previously, the various generic builders implemented the methods
addGenericArgument and addGenericWitnessTable without being provided
what argument or witness table they were to add (because it was not
previously needed). Now, the GenericRequirement is passed along to both
methods.
We don't need to substitute the superclass type as we walk up a
class hierarchy, or look up the generic parameters and conformances
to check if they're concrete, since we're always just emitting
null pointers in place of the generic parameters and requirements,
to be filled at runtime.
Also, don't leave space for generic parameters and requirements from
Objective-C superclasses, since that's not how they're represented.
Type of elements contained by field offsets vector can be adjusted
to 32-bit integers (from being pointer sized) to safe space in the
binary since segment size is limited to 4 GB.

The layout changes to become relative-address based. For this to be
truly immutable (at least on Darwin), things like the RO data patterns
must be moved out of the pattern header. Additionally, compress the
pattern header so that we do not include metadata about patterns that
are not needed for the type.
Value metadata patterns just include the metadata kind and VWT.
The design here is meant to accomodate non-default instantiation
patterns should that become an interesting thing to support in the
future, e.g. for v-table specialization.
Change the "metadata base offset" variable into a "class metadata bounds"
variable that contains the base offset and the +/- bounds on the class.
Link this variable from the class descriptor when the class has a resilient
superclass; otherwise, store the +/- bounds there. Use this variable to
compute the immediate-members offset for various runtime queries. Teach the
runtime to fill it in lazily and remove the code to compute it from the
generated code for instantiation. Identify generic arguments with the start
of the immediate class metadata members / end of the {struct,enum} metadata
header and remove the generic-arguments offset from generic type descriptors.
Right now, field offsets come before generic arguments in instances
of a struct's metadata. It would be more resilient to put the generic
arguments first, since they're always used by compiler-generated code,
and cannot change resiliently, unlike fields.

We no longer need this for anything, so remove it from metadata
altogether. This simplifies logic for emitting type metadata and
makes type metadata smaller.
We still pass the parent metadata pointer to type constructors;
removing that is a separate change.
