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.

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.

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!()

1. Change assign to follow SILGen's model for a semantic assignment,
which (in the case of unowned pointers) doesn't require the left
and right hand sides to be the same.
2. Change assign to consume/take the refcount from the LHS, following
SILGen's design (which I completely misunderstood before).

This was not likely an error-free change. Where you see problems
please correct them. This went through a fairly tedious audit
before committing, but comments might have been changed incorrectly,
not changed at all, etc.

Because union layout may interleave tag bits with payload data, we need to be able to efficiently inject and remove tag bits from an address-only union in-place. To do this, we'll model address-only union initialization by projecting out the data address (union_data_addr) and storing to it, then overlaying the tag bits (inject_union_addr). To dispatch and project out the data, we'll use a destructive_switch_union_addr instruction that clears any tag bits in-place necessary to give a valid data address.

The instruction represents constructing a loadable union given a case and the data for that case, which will let us emit union constructor functions in SIL instead of IRGen (rdar://problem/14773182).

to being a semantic assign. The functional difference here is only
for unowned pointers, where now the conversion from strong to unowned
is implicit in the assign.
The logic behind this is that 'assign' is really part of SILGen, that
is only moved later to make it easier to make it be flow sensitive.
Since it is part of SILGen and will be using some of the type lowering
functionality used by SILGen, we should play by its rules.
No functionality change.

In designing the runtime model for generic unions with John, we decided we're going to need very different SIL semantics for destructuring address-only unions, so I don't think trying to stretch switch_union to cover all unions makes any sense anymore.
Swift SVN r7225
Have project_existential return $*This instead of $Builtin.OpaquePointer, and have protocol_method do the same for methods of opaque protocols. This makes it easier for passes to reason about the semantics of the projected address, since it's restricted by the semantics of SIL addresses.

Modules can be in either 'Raw' or 'Canonical' form, with different invariants on each. We don't actually distinguish those invariants yet, but this patch adds the field to SILModule and adds a "sil_stage" declaration to SIL printer/parser syntax.

We haven't fully updated references to union cases, and enums still are not
their own thing yet, but "oneof" is gone. Long live "union"!

This way we don't need to deal with the inaccuracy of decimal float literals. While we're here, modify the in-memory representation of IntegerLiteralInst and FloatLiteralInst to save the word array of the APInt instead of round-tripping through plain text.
