- Don't crash if a class_method instruction could not be devirtualized.
- Improve devirtualization of methods with generic parameters and using dependent types.
- Fix a bug in isBindableToSuperclassOf, uncovered while fixing the original bug reported in SR-1206.
This bug could lead in certain cases to invocations of a wrong method from the base class, instead
of using a method from a derived class.
rdar://25891588 and SR-1206
In many places, we're interested in whether a type with archetypes *might be* a superclass of another type with the right bindings, particularly in the optimizer. Provide a separate Type::isBindableToSuperclassOf method that performs this check. Use it in the devirtualizer to fix rdar://problem/24993618. Using it might unblock other places where the optimizer is conservative, but we can fix those separately.
If a class has an @objc ancestry this class can be dynamically overridden and
therefore we don't know the default case even if we see the full class
hierarchy.

SILValue.h/.cpp just defines the SIL base classes. Referring to specific instructions is a (small) kind of layering violation.
Also I want to keep SILValue small so that it is really just a type alias of ValueBase*.

Correct format:
```
//===--- Name of file - Description ----------------------------*- Lang -*-===//
```
Notes:
* Comment line should be exactly 80 chars.
* Padding: Pad with dashes after "Description" to reach 80 chars.
* "Name of file", "Description" and "Lang" are all optional.
* In case of missing "Lang": drop the "-*-" markers.
* In case of missing space: drop one, two or three dashes before "Name of file".
(libraries now)
It has been generally agreed that we need to do this reorg, and now
seems like the perfect time. Some major pass reorganization is in the
works.
This does not have to be the final word on the matter. The consensus
among those working on the code is that it's much better than what we
had and a better starting point for future bike shedding.
Note that the previous organization was designed to allow separate
analysis and optimization libraries. It turns out this is an
artificial distinction and not an important goal.
