Commit the platform definition and build script work necessary to
cross-compile for arm64_32.
arm64_32 is a variant of AARCH64 that supports an ILP32 architecture.
withUTF8 currently vends a typed UInt8 pointer to the underlying
SmallString. That pointer type differs from SmallString's
representation. It should simply vend a raw pointer, which would be
both type safe and convenient for UTF8 data. However, since this
method is already @inlinable, I added calls to bindMemory to prevent
the optimizer from reasoning about access to the typed pointer that we
vend.
rdar://67983613 (Undefinied behavior in SmallString.withUTF8 is miscompiled)
Additional commentary:
SmallString creates a situation where there are two types, the
in-memory type, (UInt64, UInt64), vs. the element type,
UInt8. `UnsafePointer<T>` specifies the in-memory type of the pointee,
because that's how C works. If you want to specify an element type,
not the in-memory type, then you need to use something other than
UnsafePointer to view the memory. A trivial `BufferView<UInt8>` would
be fine, although, frankly, I think UnsafeRawPointer is a perfectly
good type on its own for UTF8 bytes.
Unfortunately, a lot of the UTF8 helper code is ABI-exposed, so to
work around this, we need to insert calls to bindMemory at strategic
points to avoid undefined behavior. This is high-risk and can
negatively affect performance. So far, I was able to resolve the
regressions in our microbenchmarks just by tweaking the inliner.
* Don't allocate breadrumbs pointer if under threshold
* Increase breadrumbs threshold
* Linear 16-byte bucketing until 128 bytes, malloc_size after
* Allow cap less than _SmallString.capacity (bridging non-ASCII)
This change decreases the amount of heap usage for moderate-length
strings (< 64 UTF-8 code units in length) and increases the amount of
spare code unit capacity available (less growth needed).
Average improvements for moderate-length strings:
* 64-bit: on average, 8 bytes saved and 4 bytes of extra capacity
* 32-bit: on average, 4 bytes saved and 6 bytes of extra capacity
Additionally, on 32-bit, large-length strings also gain an average of
6 bytes of extra spare capacity.
Details:
On 64-bit, half of moderate-length allocations will save 16 bytes
while the other half get an extra 8 bytes of spare capacity.
On 32-bit, a quarter of moderate-length allocations will save 16
bytes, and the rest get an extra 4 bytes of spare
capacity. Additionally, 32-bit string's storage class now claims its
full allocation, which is its birthright. Prior to this change, we'd
have on average 1.5 bytes of spare capacity, and now we have 7.5 bytes
of spare capacity.
Breadcrumbs threshold is increased from the super-conservative 32 to
the pretty-conservative 64. Some speed improvements are incorporated
in this change, but more are in flight. Even without those eventual
improvements, this is a worthwhile change (ASCII is still fast-pathed
and irrelevant to breadcrumbing).
For a complex real-world workload, this amounts to around a 5%
improvement to transient heap usage due to all strings and a 4%
improvement to peak heap usage due to all strings. For moderate-length
strings specifically, this gives around 11% improvement to both.
It is causing bots to fail.

One additional tweak (setting the scalar-aligned bit on foreign indices) had to be made to avoid a performance regression for long non-ASCII foreign strings.
Fixes a general category (pun intended) of scalar-alignment bugs
surrounding exchanging non-scalar-aligned indices between views and
for slicing.
SE-0180 unifies the Index type of String and all its views and allows
non-scalar-aligned indices to be used across views. In order to
guarantee behavior, we often have to check and perform scalar
alignment. To speed up these checks, we allocate a bit denoting
known-to-be-aligned, so that the alignment check can skip the
load. The below shows what views need to check for alignment before
they can operate, and whether the indices they produce are aligned.

The "requires alignment" applies to any operation taking a
String.Index that's not defined entirely in terms of other operations
taking a String.Index. These include:
* index(after:)
* index(before:)
* subscript
* distance(from:to:) (since `to` is compared against directly)
* UTF16View._nativeGetOffset(for:)
Old Swift and new Swift runtimes and overlays need to coexist in the same process. This means there must not be any classes which have the same ObjC runtime name in old and new, because the ObjC runtime doesn't like name collisions.
When possible without breaking source compatibility, classes were renamed in Swift, which results in a different ObjC name.
Public classes were renamed only on the ObjC side using the @_objcRuntimeName attribute.
This is similar to the work done in pull request #19295. That only renamed @objc classes. This renames all of the others, since even pure Swift classes still get an ObjC name.

In anticipation of potential future HW features, e.g. armv8.5 memory
tagging, only use the high 4 bytes as discriminator bits in
_BridgeObject rather than the top 8 bits. Utilize two perf flags to
cover this instead. This requires shifting around a fair amount of
internal complexity.
• Convert _AbstractStringStorage to a protocol, and the free functions used to deduplicate implementations to extensions on that protocol.
• Move 'start' into the abstract type and use that to simplify some code
• Move the ASCII fast path for length into UTF16View.
• Add a weirder but faster way to check which (if any) of our NSString subclasses a given object is, and adopt it
After rebasing on master and incorporating more 32-bit support,
perform a bunch of cleanup, documentation updates, comments, move code
back to String declaration, etc.
Add inlinability annotations to restore performance parity with 4.2 String.
Take advantage of known NFC as a fast-path for comparison, and
overhaul comparison dispatch.
RRC improvements and optmizations.
