This flag was not experimental for any good reason; it should always be
enabled. The flag only exists so we can introduce a new API:
UnsafeMutablePointer.mutableSpan. Supported compilers cannot handle the new API.
rdar://154247502 (Promote feature NonescapableAccessorOnTrivial to be
non-experimental)
To guard the new UnsafeMutablePointer.mutableSpan APIs.
This allows older compilers to ignore the new APIs. Otherwise, the type checker
will crash on the synthesized _read accessor for a non-Escapable type:
error: cannot infer lifetime dependence on the '_read' accessor because 'self'
is BitwiseCopyable, specify '@lifetime(borrow self)'
I don't know why the _read is synthesized in these cases, but apparently it's
always been that way.
Fixes: rdar://153773093 ([nonescapable] add a compiler feature to guard
~Escapable accessors when self is trivial)
Find all the usages of `--enable-experimental-feature` or
`--enable-upcoming-feature` in the tests and replace some of the
`REQUIRES: asserts` to use `REQUIRES: swift-feature-Foo` instead, which
should correctly apply to depending on the asserts/noasserts mode of the
toolchain for each feature.
Remove some comments that talked about enabling asserts since they don't
apply anymore (but I might had miss some).
All this was done with an automated script, so some formatting weirdness
might happen, but I hope I fixed most of those.
There might be some tests that were `REQUIRES: asserts` that might run
in `noasserts` toolchains now. This will normally be because their
feature went from experimental to upcoming/base and the tests were not
updated.

Changes highlights:
dependsOn(paramName) and dependsOn(scoped argName) syntax
dependsOn(paramName) -> copy lifetime dependence for all parameters/self except
when we have Escapable parameters/self, we assign scope
lifetime dependence.
Allow lifetime dependence on parameters without ownership modifier.
Always infer copy lifetime dependence except when we have
Escapable parameters/self, we infer scope lifetime dependence.
Allow lifetime dependence inference on parameters without ownership modifier.
