declarations generated by the type-checker.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to directly check this
because the verifier is itself based on ASTWalker. But I'm
going to add an assertion to SILGen in a follow-up that
assumes that TypeCheckError has visited every ApplyExpr,
and since SILGen already walks most of the AST with its
own custom walker, that will check this well enough.

Now that we don't have generic parameter lists at arbitrary positions
within the extended type of an extension declaration, simplify the
representation of the extended type down to a TypeLoc along with a
(compiler-synthesized) generic parameter list.
On the parsing side, just parse a type for the extended type, rather
than having a special grammar. We still reject anything that is not a
nominal type (of course), but it's simpler just to call it a type.
As a drive-by, fix the crasher when extending a type with module
qualification, rdar://problem/20900870.

Make unqualified lookup always provide a declaration for the things it
finds, rather than providing either a module or a declaration. Unify
various code paths in our type checker now that module declarations
come in with the other declarations.

The eventual goal for extensions of generic types is to require them
to specify their generic parameters, e.g.,
extension Array<T> { ... }
rather than today's
extension Array { ... }
Start parsing (optional) generic parameters here, and update the
representation of ExtensionDecl to accomodate this new grammar
production. Aside from the parser changes, there's no intended
functionality change here.

This completes the FileUnit refactoring. A module consists of multiple
FileUnits, which provide decls from various file-like sources. I say
"file-like" because the Builtin module is implemented with a single
BuiltinUnit, and imported Clang modules are just a single FileUnit source
within a module.
Most modules, therefore, contain a single file unit; only the main module
will contain multiple source files (and eventually partial AST files).
The term "translation unit" has been scrubbed from the project. To refer
to the context of declarations outside of any other declarations, use
"top-level" or "module scope". To refer to a .swift file or its DeclContext,
use "source file". To refer to a single unit of compilation, use "module",
since the model is that an entire module will be compiled with a single
driver call. (It will still be possible to compile a single source file
through the direct-to-frontend interface, but only in the context of the
whole module.)
