I also removed the -verify-sil-ownership flag in favor of a disable flag
-disable-sil-ownership-verifier. I used this on only two tests that still need
work to get them to pass with ownership, but whose problems are well understood,
small corner cases. I am going to fix them in follow on commits. I detail them
below:
1. SILOptimizer/definite_init_inout_super_init.swift. This is a test case where
DI is supposed to error. The only problem is that we crash before we error since
the code emitting by SILGen to trigger this error does not pass ownership
invariants. I have spoken with JoeG about this and he suggested that I fix this
earlier in the compiler. Since we do not run the ownership verifier without
asserts enabled, this should not affect compiler users. Given that it has
triggered DI errors previously I think it is safe to disable ownership here.
2. PrintAsObjC/extensions.swift. In this case, the signature generated by type
lowering for one of the thunks here uses an unsafe +0 return value instead of
doing an autorelease return. The ownership checker rightly flags this leak. This
is going to require either an AST level change or a change to TypeLowering. I
think it is safe to turn this off since it is such a corner case that it was
found by a test that has nothing to do with it.

I have been meaning to do this change for a minute, but kept on putting it off.
This describes what is actually happening and is a better name for the option.
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.
