@inout parameters can be nocapture and dereferenceable. @in, @in_guaranteed, and indirected @direct parameters can be noalias, nocapture, and dereferenceable.

All llvm::Functions created during IRGen will have target-cpu and target-features
attributes if they are non-null.
Update testing cases to expect the attribute in function definition.
Add testing case function-target-features.swift to verify target-cpu and
target-features.

We have to guarantee memory safety in the presence of the user violating the
inout assumption. Claiming NoAlias for parameters that might alias is not
memory safe because LLVM will optimize based on that assumption.
Unfortunately, this means that llvm can't optimize arrays as aggressively. For
example, the load of array->buffer won't get hoisted out of loops (this is the
Sim2DArray regression below).

This avoids redundant calls of swift_get*Metadata() if the metadata is reused in the same basic block
or if it is already availabe in the function entry block.
There is still room for improvement, e.g. by not limiting the reuse to a single block.
This change reduces the dylib codesize by about 11%, mostly in protocoll witnesses (-34%).
It also results in some improvements for the -Onone performance:
RangeAssignment: +31%
StdlibSort: +20%

If the alloc size of a single iNNN field doesn't match the requested size, then it will use the wrong amount of space inside an LLVM struct. Solve this by using [N x i8] as the storage type for opaque storage, but loading and storing as a single iNNN field.
Swift SVN r24571
OpaqueStorageTypeInfo uses iNNN types that don't always have the correct alloc size for an expected
size at the LLVM level. This needs to be fixed before my partial apply closure fixes can hold.

In order to deal with generic indirect value captures, we need to be able to bind their type metadata in the partial apply forwarder and heap object destructor to have access to the value operations for that type. NecessaryBindings gives us a way to do that and clean up our ad-hoc polymorphic argument forwarding we had before. N(intended)FC yet, aside from some harmless reordering of operations, since we also need to implement NonFixedOffsets for heap objects to be fully operational.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

Have the ArgumentInitVisitor directly bind argument variables to BB arguments, instead of trying to reuse the InitializationForPattern logic used for general variable bindings. That was a nice idea, but it leads to some ugly edge cases because of the many little ways arguments are different from local variable bindings. By getting rid of the abstraction layers, it's easy for argument binding to bind +0 guaranteed or +1 arguments in place when appropriate, avoiding an r/r pair for "let" bindings. It will also let us eliminate some ugly code from variable binding initialization. Should be NFC aside from some harmless reordering of prolog/epilog variable setup.

I am starting to reuse manglings for different passes. I want to make sure that
when we reuse functions we actually get a function created by the same pass.

This is needed for tests which define internal functions which should not be eliminated.
So far this was not needed because of a hack which prevented whole-module-optimizations for tests.

Now the SILLinkage for functions and global variables is according to the swift visibility (private, internal or public).
In addition, the fact whether a function or global variable is considered as fragile, is kept in a separate flag at SIL level.
Previously the linkage was used for this (e.g. no inlining of less visible functions to more visible functions). But it had no effect,
because everything was public anyway.
For now this isFragile-flag is set for public transparent functions and for everything if a module is compiled with -sil-serialize-all,
i.e. for the stdlib.
For details see <rdar://problem/18201785> Set SILLinkage correctly and better handling of fragile functions.
The benefits of this change are:
*) Enable to eliminate unused private and internal functions
*) It should be possible now to use private in the stdlib
*) The symbol linkage is as one would expect (previously almost all symbols were public).
More details:
Specializations from fragile functions (e.g. from the stdlib) now get linkonce_odr,default
linkage instead of linkonce_odr,hidden, i.e. they have public visibility.
The reason is: if such a function is called from another fragile function (in the same module),
then it has to be visible from a third module, in case the fragile caller is inlined but not
the specialized function.
I had to update lots of test files, because many CHECK-LABEL lines include the linkage, which has changed.
The -sil-serialize-all option is now handled at SILGen and not at the Serializer.
This means that test files in sil format which are compiled with -sil-serialize-all
must have the [fragile] attribute set for all functions and globals.
The -disable-access-control option doesn't help anymore if the accessed module is not compiled
with -sil-serialize-all, because the linker will complain about unresolved symbols.
A final note: I tried to consider all the implications of this change, but it's not a low-risk change.
If you have any comments, please let me know.
