These include the pointer-to-pointer and pointer-to-buffer-pointer
initialiser parameters amongst a couple of others, such as
`Unmanaged.fromOpaque`, and the source for the `move[...]` family of
methods.
This fix updates various initializers to handle incoming empty buffers
that happen to have a nil base. They should simply create another
buffer with nil base rather than crashing!
It is valid for an Unsafe[Raw]BufferPointer can have a nil base
address. This allows round-tripping with C code that takes a
pointer/length pair and uses `0` as the pointer value.
The original design wrongly assumed that we would use a sentinel value
for empty buffers and was never updated for or tested with the current
design.
Fixes <rdar://problem/47946984> Regression in Foundation.Data's
UnsafeBufferPointer constructor.
It is unfortunate that `Unsafe[Raw]BufferPointer._pointer` and
`baseAddress` are declared Optional. This leaves extra runtime checks
in the code in the most performance critical paths. Contrast this with
Array, which uses an sentinal pointer for the empty representation.
This forces us to use _unsafelyUnwrappedUnchecked whenever we just
want to dereference a non-empty buffer pointer.
Fixes SR-9809: swiftc appears to make some sub-optimal optimization choices
* Removing FIXME from methods also marked always/never
* Unavailable/deprecated things don't need inlining
* Trivial implementations
* Enum namespaces
* Unsafe performance of opaque/raw pointer
* Dump doesn't need to be fast
* Error paths shouldn't require inlining
* Consistency with surrounding code
* Lazy performance needs specialization
Since the functions produce pointers with tightly-scoped lifetimes there's no formal reason these have to only work on `inout` things. Now that arguments can be +0, we can even do this without copying values that we already have at +0.

* Give Sequence a top-level Element, constrain Iterator to match
* Remove many instances of Iterator.
* Fixed various hard-coded tests
* XFAIL a few tests that need further investigation
* Change assoc type for arrayLiteralConvertible
* Mop up remaining "better expressed as a where clause" warnings
* Fix UnicodeDecoders prototype test

* Fix hard-coded Element identifier in CSDiag
* Fix up more tests
* Account for flatMap changes
* Add sliceability tests for Unsafe(Raw)BufferPointer.
Improve the generic sliceability tests to verify that SubSequence indices are
compatible with their parents indices.
* Fix and enable testing stdlib Collection instances.
Top-level entry points fully testing a collection instance:
check${Traversal}Collection
One level of recursion into all slices of the collection instance
O(n^2). (Not combinatorial).
Previously, checkCollection() did nothing. So much of the testing infrastructure was inactive. Now it runs all forward collection tests.
Fixes a bug in subscriptRangeTests.
The UnsafeRawBufferPointer and Data collection testing is disabled and
will be fixed in the following commit.
* Give UnsafeRawBufferPointer a distinct slice type.
SubSequence = RandomAccessSlice<Self>
* Fix raw buffer pointer tests after changing the API
* Add UnsafeRawBuffer(rebasing:) initializers.
Allows converting a raw slice into a zero-based raw buffer,
which is a common operation on flat memory.
Add and update UnsafeRawBufferPointer unit tests.
* Do not run recursive O(n^2) collection slice testing on large collections.
Now, even with collection unit testing wired up, the validation tests
take the same amount of time to execute.
* Add init(rebasing:) to UnsafeBufferPointer.
This is required for consistency with UnsafeRawBufferPointer.
* Update CHANGELOG.md for SE-0138 amendment: UnsafeRawBufferPointer slice type.
This revises and expands upon documentation for the standard library's
unsafe pointer types. This includes typed and raw pointers and buffers,
the MemoryLayout type, and some other top-level functions.
