This will ensure that the optimizer never eliminates the strong_retain. This
operation is meant to be unmanaged, we should respect the user's choice here
even in optimized builds.
In a previous commit, I banned in the verifier any SILValue from producing
ValueOwnershipKind::Any in preparation for this.
This change arises out of discussions in between John, Andy, and I around
ValueOwnershipKind::Trivial. The specific realization was that this ownership
kind was an unnecessary conflation of the a type system idea (triviality) with
an ownership idea (@any, an ownership kind that is compatible with any other
ownership kind at value merge points and can only create). This caused the
ownership model to have to contort to handle the non-payloaded or trivial cases
of non-trivial enums. This is unnecessary if we just eliminate the any case and
in the verifier separately verify that trivial => @any (notice that we do not
verify that @any => trivial).
NOTE: This is technically an NFC intended change since I am just replacing
Trivial with Any. That is why if you look at the tests you will see that I
actually did not need to update anything except removing some @trivial ownership
since @any ownership is represented without writing @any in the parsed sil.

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.
Support for @noescape SILFunctionTypes.
These are the underlying SIL changes necessary to implement the new
closure capture ABI.
Note: This includes a change to function name mangling that
primarily affects reabstraction thunks.
The new ABI will allow stack allocation of non-escaping closures as a
simple optimization.
The new ABI, and the stack allocation optimization, also require
closure context to be @guaranteed. That will be implemented as the
next step.
Many SIL passes pattern match partial_apply sequences. These all
needed to be fixed to handle the convert_function that SILGen now
emits. The conversion is now needed whenever a function declaration,
which has an escaping type, is passed into a @NoEscape argument.
In addition to supporting new SIL patterns, some optimizations like
inlining and SIL combine are now stronger which could perturb some
benchmark results.
These underlying SIL changes should be merged now to avoid conflicting
with other work. Minor benchmark discrepancies can be investigated as part of
the stack-allocation work.
* Add a noescape attribute to SILFunctionType.
And set this attribute correctly when lowering formal function types to SILFunctionTypes based on @escaping.
This will allow stack allocation of closures, and unblock a related ABI change.
* Flip the polarity on @noescape on SILFunctionType and clarify that
we don't default it.
* Emit withoutActuallyEscaping using a convert_function instruction.
It might be better to use a specialized instruction here, but I'll leave that up to Andy.
Andy: And I'll leave that to Arnold who is implementing SIL support for guaranteed ownership of thick function types.
* Fix SILGen and SIL Parsing.
* Fix the LoadableByAddress pass.
* Fix ClosureSpecializer.
* Fix performance inliner constant propagation.
* Fix the PartialApplyCombiner.
* Adjust SILFunctionType for thunks.
* Add mangling for @noescape/@escaping.
* Fix test cases for @noescape attribute, mangling, convert_function, etc.
* Fix exclusivity test cases.
* Fix AccessEnforcement.
* Fix SILCombine of convert_function -> apply.
* Fix ObjC bridging thunks.
* Various MandatoryInlining fixes.
* Fix SILCombine optimizeApplyOfConvertFunction.
* Fix more test cases after merging (again).
* Fix ClosureSpecializer. Hande convert_function cloning.
Be conservative when combining convert_function. Most of our code doesn't know
how to deal with function type mismatches yet.
* Fix MandatoryInlining.
Be conservative with function conversion. The inliner does not yet know how to
cast arguments or convert between throwing forms.
* Fix PartialApplyCombiner.
When I originally implemented this, I did not understand why an unowned(unsafe)
value was unsafe. I thought it was unsafe since the value was not meant to be
paired with (which is why I used the unmanaged_retain_value). Instead it just
means that we perform an unconditional copy without checking if the unowned
value is actually live. In contrast, an unowned(safe) value, we use
copy_unowned_value which performs an assert that the unowned value is still
alive before copying.
From a non-semantic sil perspective, since I still was retaining the value
properly, there was not a bug by using the unmanaged_retain_value instruction.
