When a non-final class satisfies a method requirement that returns
Self, it must do so with a method that also returns (dynamic)
Self. This ensures conformance will be inheritable, closing off an
awful type-safety hole <rdar://problem/16880016>. Other
non-contravariant uses of Self in the signatures of requirements cause
the protocol to be unusable by non-final classes.
I had to leave a tiny little gaping hole for the ~> operator, whose
removal is covered by <rdar://problem/17828741>. We can possibly put
this on firm footing with clever handling of generic witnesses, but
it's not important right now.

modifiers and with the func implementations of the operators. This resolves the rest of:
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
Swift SVN r19931
eliminating the @'s from them when used on func's. This is progress towards
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
This also consolidates rejection of custom operator definitions into one
place and makes it consistent, and adds postfix "?" to the list of rejected
operators.
This also changes the demangler to demangle weak/inout/postfix and related things
without the @.
Swift SVN r19929
Analyze an expression of the form [<tuple contents>] into a call to T.convertFromArrayLiteral(<tuple contents>) for some T conforming to an ArrayLiteralConvertible protocol. Because of some limitations in the constraint checker and protocol conformance checkers, it currently does an ad-hoc conformance check using member constraints. It also currently fails to typecheck for generic container types, and does not provide a default fallback to 'T[]' if unable to deduce a better type from context.
