This makes resolving mangled names to nominal types in the same module more efficient, and for eventual secrecy improvements, also allows types in the same module to be referenced from mangled typerefs without encoding any source-level name information about them.
Given any heap object, this method dumps:
* The pointer address of the heap object.
* The pointer address of the heap metadata of the object.
* The strong reference count.
* The unowned reference count.
* The weak reference count.
* Whether or not the value is in the deinit state.
* Whether or not the heap object uses swift_retain or objc_retain.
* The address of the object's side table if one exists.
This makes it really easy when debugging quickly to get all of the information
that you could possibly need from a HeapObject.
`_typeByMangledName` could encounter types which have ownership attributes
associated with them which are not representable by the metadata object
but nevertheless are important, so such ownership information should be
returned along with metadata itself from the call.
When evaluating whether a given type conforms to a protocol, evaluate the
conditional requirements and pass the results to the witness table
accessor function. This provides the ability to query conditional
conformances at runtime, and is the last major part of implementing
SE-0143.
The newly-added unlock/lock dance in the conformance lookup code is a
temporary stub. We have some ideas to do this better.

The default attribute on the section is read/write. This would cause
the section to have different attributes when compiled. The linker
would then preserve the section rather than merge it into the right
location. This was noticed when linking with `link.exe`.
The Windows constructor was not populated properly, with the protocol
list being dropped. Ensure that all the fields are initialised
properly. Thanks to clang's `-Wmissing-field-initializers` warning to
help catch this.
On windows, we create synthetic markers with grouping identifiers to
ensure that the markers are sorted properly and merged. We would
previously mark the section as read/write rather than read-only causing
warnings when linking. Correct the attributes. This ensures the proper
linking of the modules.
Instead of calling malloc, call AlignedAlloc. That calls posix_memalign on platforms where it's available. The man page cautions to use it judiciously, but Apple OSes and Linux implement it to call through to malloc when the alignment is suitable. Presumably/hopefully other OSes do the same.

Extend the runtime's ability for evaluating generic requirements to
handle same-type requirements, demangling/substituting the name from
the generic requirement metadata.
Extend the support for mangled-name-to-type-metadata's handling of generic
types to handle nested types, including gathering type arguments from
parent contents and checking generic requirements.
Extend support for mapping a mangled name -> type metadata to include
support for checking protocol conformance requirements, using the
encoding of generic requirements that is now available within context
descriptors. For example, this allows
_typeByMangledName(mangled-name-of-Set<Int>) to construct proper type
metadata, filling in the Int: Hashable requirement as appropriate.
