This commit contains:
-) adding the new instructions + infrastructure, like parsing, printing, etc.
-) support in IRGen to generate global object-variables (i.e. "heap" objects) which are statically initialized in the data section.
-) IRGen for global_value which lazily initializes the object header and returns a reference to the object.
For details see the documentation of the new instructions in SIL.rst.
Static initializers are now represented by a list of literal and aggregate instructions in a SILGlobalVariable.
For details see SIL.rst.
This representation is cleaner than what we did so far (point to the initializer function and do some pattern matching).
One implication of that change is that now (a subset of) instructions not necessarily have a parent function.
Regarding the generated code it's a NFC.
Also the swift module format didn't change because so far we don't serializer global variables.
This has the same semantics as open_existential_box, but returns an object value
instead of an address.
This is used in SIL opaque values mode. Attempting to reuse open_existential_box
in this mode causes SIL type inconsistencies that are too difficult to work
around. Adding this instruction allows for consistent handling of opaque values.
The original versions of several of these currently redundant instructions will
be removed once the SIL representation stabilizes.
These instructions have the same semantics as the *ExistentialAddr instructions
but operate directly on the existential value, not its address.
This is in preparation for adding ExistentialBoxValue instructions.
The previous name would cause impossible confusion with "opaque existentials"
and "opaque existential boxes".
The counterparts are:
UnownedRetain -> CopyValue.
UnownedRelease -> DestroyValue.
StrongRetainUnowned -> CopyUnownedValue.
I thought I hit all of these already. When I was fixing some DI stuff I realized
that I missed a few cases in SILGenLValue.cpp. To make sure we do not regress, I
added some verifier checks to make sure these instructions can only be used in
non-ownership sil.

In the type checker, we need to recognize when a member lookup succeeded through an IUO unwrap, and insert the implicit optional-unwrap component into the key path. In the standard library, we need to cope with the fact that IUO is still a first-class type with unique type metadata in a few places. Fix for rdar://problem/33230845.
I am going to use this to put an assertion in SILBuilder on ValueMetatype so
that the assertion fires right when the ValueMetatype is created instead of
later once we are verifying. It is still only being used in assertions/etc.

Use 'hasAssociatedValues' instead of computing and discarding the
interface type of an enum element decl. This change has specifically not
been made in conditions that use the presence or absence of the
interface type, only conditions that depend on the presence or absence
of associated values in the enum element decl.
Replace `NameOfType foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)` with DRY version `auto foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)`.
The DRY auto version is by far the dominant form already used in the repo, so this PR merely brings the exceptional cases (redundant repetition form) in line with the dominant form (auto form).
See the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#es11-use-auto-to-avoid-redundant-repetition-of-type-names) for a general discussion on why to use `auto` to avoid redundant repetition of type names.
I put in a simple fixup pass (MarkUninitializedFixup) for staging purposes. I
don't expect it to be in tree long. I just did not feel comfortable fixing up in
1 commit all of the passes up to DI.

A computed component needs:
- A stable identifier for equality checking. This can be either a static function reference for concrete property implementations, or a reference into a vtable or witness table for a dynamically dispatched property. This should correspond to a public ABI interface for public things.
- Getter and setter (TODO: and materializeForSet) references. These might be thunks to reach the necessary abstraction level for the keypath implementation, so they can't be used as stable identifiers directly.
- Separate out a uniquable KeyPathPattern that describes the context-free shape of the key path, with generic parameters and (eventually) subscript index slots factored out.
- Add component kinds for gettable and settable properties.
