Motivation: `GenericSignatureImpl::getCanonicalSignature` crashes for
`GenericSignature` with underlying `nullptr`. This led to verbose workarounds
when computing `CanGenericSignature` from `GenericSignature`.
Solution: `GenericSignature::getCanonicalSignature` is a wrapper around
`GenericSignatureImpl::getCanonicalSignature` that returns the canonical
signature, or `nullptr` if the underlying pointer is `nullptr`.
Rewrite all verbose workarounds using `GenericSignature::getCanonicalSignature`.
Because we won’t be serializing this attribute, add custom diagnostics for the cases where:
- We add @_hasMissingDesignatedInits to an open class, which means subclasses won’t be able to inherit its inits
- We remove @_inheritsConvenienceInitializers, which means APIs are removed
Structurally prevent a number of common anti-patterns involving generic
signatures by separating the interface into GenericSignature and the
implementation into GenericSignatureBase. In particular, this allows
the comparison operators to be deleted which forces callers to
canonicalize the signature or ask to compare pointers explicitly.
Flush it and the early validation hack now that we can delay computing the underlying interface type on demand and have taught type resolution to honor the structural type of a typealias.
This changes the way requirement signatures are spelled as a side effect.
If client's subclass provides an implementation of all of its superclass designated
initializers, it automatically inherits all of the superclass convenience initializers.
This means if a new designated init is added to the base class, the inherited
convenience init may be missing and cause breakage.

ABI/API checker used to hard-code whether adding or removing of a
decl attribute could break the existing ABI/API. This is not ideal because
new attributes may be added to AST without updating the checker. After this
change, new decl attribute could be specified whether it has ABI/API
impact and the checker could pick up the knowledge instantly.
Framework authors may be interested in comparing the current framework build
against an empty baseline to find public APIs without @available attributes. This
change makes such exercise easier.
The framework baselines are installed at 'lib/swift/FrameworkABIBaseline' and the
tool is inside 'bin'. This patch teaches the executable to locate baselines
from the relative path.
In addition, this patch moves the stdlib ABI/API baselines to the canonical
location so we don't have to check the stability of the stdlib using a
different mechanism from other Swift frameworks.
ABI/API checker should check semantic differences of two modules.
Adhering too strictly to the actual ASTs could yield false positives. This
patch populates ObjC, Dynamic and Final to the attribute list if AST
APIs say so.

Framework authors usually have different schemes for different deployment
targets. We should exclude platform-unavailable ABIs from the Json file so
developers will only be warned of the breakages that are relevant to the current
scheme.

ABI checker imports Swift frameworks by using Swift interfaces for various
reasons. The existing way of controlling preferred importing mechanism is by
setting an environment variable (SWIFT_FORCE_MODULE_LOADING), which may lead
to performance issues because the stdlib could also be loaded in this way.
This patch adds a new front-end option to specify module names for
which we prefer to importing via Swift interface. The option currently is only
accessible via swift-api-digester.

This change introduces a Json format change where we always print fully
qualified type names everywhere. This is beneficial for diagnosing purposes but
may not be ideal for generating migrator scripts. To resolve this conflict, the
patch also introduces a flag -migrator to opt-out fully qualified type names.
After the format change, we need to update the ABI and API baselines for the
Swift stdlib.
