This mirrors the behavior of project_existential and simplifies some special cases in SILGen. It unfortunately makes dynamic_lookup sequences a bit noisier because of the need to explicitly cast the projection from DynamicLookup.Self to Builtin.ObjCPointer, but I think this modeling is more solid and will fit better with my planned redesign of archetype_method/protocol_method.

entire aggregates at once.
This has three worth effects:
- It significantly decreases the amount of SIL required
for these operations.
- It makes it far easier for IR-gen to choose efficient
patterns of destruction, e.g. calling a single entrypoint
or recognizing that it can just use the runtime 'release'
entrypoints.
- It makes it easier to recognize and optimize aggregate
copy/destroy operations.
It does make SROA-like tasks a bit more challenging. The
intent is to give TypeLowering a way to expand these into
their primitive behavior.

Implement the new rules for mapping between selector names and
constructors. The selector for a given constructor is formed by
looking at the names of the constructor parameters:
* For the first parameter, prepend "init" to the parameter name and
uppercase the first letter of the parameter name. Append ':' if
there are > 1 parameters or the parameter has non-empty-tuple type.
* For the remaining parameters, the name of each parameter followed
by ':'.
When a parameter doesn't exist, assume that the parameter name is the
empty string.
And, because I failed to commit it separately, support selector-style
declarations of constructor parameters so that we can actually write
constructors nicely, e.g.:
// selector is initWithFoo:bar:
constructor withFoo(foo : Foo) bar(bar : Bar) { ... }

Given an object of type DynamicLookup.metatype, allow us to find both
static and instance methods.
Sema only; SILGen and IRGen changes to come.

Clarify that, unlike SIL addresses, class values and other heap object references can alias and be captured. Class value aliasing is controlled by the type system.

Use the ordinal archetype manglings only for the primary archetypes of a generic context, and define a mangling for associated types relative to their parent archetype. This will make the archetype mangling resilient in the face of our planned improvements to associated type and protocol conformance ABI. It also correctly mangles self and associated types of protocols, which my previous attempt utterly failed to accomplish.
Swift SVN r8174
This should allow declarations inside protocols to mangle successfully, which is needed by SourceKit to be able to use mangled names as unique decl identifiers. I'm also planning to use mangled protocol decls to name generic curry thunk symbols.
This only introduces a mangling for independent associated types. I think we will eventually want to mangle dependent associated types (such as T.AssocType for an archetype T : SomeProtocol) with a non-indexed mangling too, but this doesn't do that yet.

Lazily-generated currying thunks will require the same IR-level linkonce_odr linkage as clang thunks currently do, so generalize the name of the existing SIL-level linkage specifier 'clang_thunk'.

To do this right, we need to emit the objc_msgSend on the 'self' argument inside the forwarding stub, so handle them in a different code path in IRGenSIL::visitPartialApplyInst.

The dynamic_method instruction handles method lookup on an existential
of type DynamicLookup based on the selector of an [objc] method of a
class or protocol. It is only introduced in the narrow case where we
are forcing a use of the method with '!', e.g.,
class X {
func [objc] f() { println("Dynamic lookup") }
}
var x : DynamicLookup = X()
x.f!()

Beginning to move all ObjC/Cocoa references out of the first part of
the document, so the high-level string design stands on its own. It's
becoming clear that rationales need to be moved out of the sidebar and
back into the main body of the text, so checkpointing before
restructuring.
