The SILGen testsuite consists of valid Swift code covering most language
features. We use these tests to verify that no unknown nodes are in the
file's libSyntax tree. That way we will (hopefully) catch any future
changes or additions to the language which are not implemented in
libSyntax.
I am going to leave in the infrastructure around this just in case. But there is
no reason to keep this in the tests themselves. I can always just revert this
and I don't think merge conflicts are likely due to previous work I did around
the tooling for this.
Otherwise, the plus_zero_* tests will have plus_zero_* as a module name, causing
massive FileCheck problems.
The reason why I am doing it with the main tests is so that I can use it when
syncing branches/etc.

Instead of appending a character for each substitution, we now prefix the substitution with the repeat count, e.g.
AbbbbB -> A5B
The same is done for known-type substitutions, e.g.
SiSiSi -> S3i
This significantly shrinks mangled names which contain large lists of the same type, like
func foo(_ x: (Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int))

@noescape may be interesting to passes in the future, but it currently has no effect except to cause symbol collisions in reabstraction thunks and other places. Since it has no effect, just remove it from SIL for now.
