Code using the outline heap storage path will crash and burn because
support is incomplete. But at least inline storage existential
inhabitants should compile and run.
This change moves us toward the official feature, and eliminates the
extra level of "thunk" that was implied by `@_cdecl`. Amusingly, this
trips up the LLVM-level ARC optimizations, because we are trying to
perform ARC optimizations within the retain/release runtime functions.
Teach those optimization passes to leave swift_retainN et al alone.
`swift_coroFrameAlloc` is needed by `_read`/`_modify` accessors
`swift_deallocUninitializedObject` which I believe is needed for failable class initializers

Previously, we skipped checking the return type of a function for safety
as we expected to warn at the use of the returned value:
let x = returnsUnsafe()
usesUnsafe(x) // warn here
Unfortunately, this resulted in missing some unsafe constructs that can
introduce memory safety issues when the use of the return value had a
different shape resulting in false negatives for cases like:
return returnsUnsafe()
or
usesUnsafe(returnsUnsafe())
This PR changes the analysis to always take return types of function
calls into account.

The results of `swift_retain(object:)` and `swift_bridgeObjectRetain(object:)`
should be discardable since it's typcial to not need the pointer returned from
these calls. Suppresses unused result warnings that were generated previously.
This makes ManagedBuffer available and usable in Embedded Swift, by:
- Removing an internal consistency check from ManagedBuffer that relies on metatypes.
- Making the .create() API transparent (to hoist the metatype to the callee).
- Adding a AllocRefDynamicInst simplification to convert `alloc_ref_dynamic` to `alloc_ref`, which removes a metatype use.
- Adding tests for the above.
- when compiling embedded cross compile target standard libraries, include AVR
- add 16-bit pointer as a conditional compilation condition and get the void pointer size right for gyb sources
- attempt to fix clang importer not importing __swift_intptr_t correctly on 16 bit platforms
- changed the unit test target to avr-none-none-elf to match the cmake build
[AVR] got the standard library compiling in a somewhat restricted form:
General
- updated the Embedded Runtime
- tweaked CTypes.swift to fix clang import on 16 bit platforms
Strings
- as discussed in https://forums.swift.org/t/stringguts-stringobject-internals-how-to-layout-on-16-bit-platforms/73130, I went for just using the same basic layout in 16 bit as 32 bit but with 16 bit pointers/ints... the conversation is ongoing, I think something more efficient is possible but at least this compiles and will probably work (inefficiently)
Unicode
- the huge arrays of unicode stuff in UnicodeStubs would not compile, so I skipped it for AVR for now.
Synchronization
- disabled building the Synchronization library on AVR for now. It's arguable if it adds value on this platform anyway.
`swift_willThrow` is called with an error right before it is thrown.
This existing entrypoint requires an already-boxed error existential;
with typed errors, we don't have the error existential on hand, so we
would need to allocate the box to throw a typed error. That's not okay.
Introduce a new `swift_willThrowTypedImpl` entry point into the runtime
that will first check for the presence of an error handler and, if one
is present, box the error to provide to the error handler. This
maintains the no-allocations path for typed errors while still
allowing existing error handlers to work.
This new entrypoint isn't available on older Swift runtimes, so create
a back-deployable shim called by the compiler. On new-enough platforms,
this will call through to `swift_willThrowTypedImpl`. On older
platforms, we drop the error and don't call the registered will-throw
handler at all. This is a compromise that avoids boxing when throwing
typed errors, at the cost of a slightly different experience for this
new feature on older runtimes.
