Now covers following new areas (alongside simple assignments):
- Contextual type coercions:
- In assignment e.g. `let _: X = foo`
- In return type positions e.g. `func foo() -> A { return bar }`
- Argument-to-parameter applications (including @autoclosure)
Avoid claiming un-labeled defaulted parameters
by out-of-order un-labeled arguments or parts
of variadic argument sequence, because that might
be incorrect.
The following example is supposed to type-check
correctly but without these changes produces
`missing argument for parameter #4 in call`
error, because `3` will be claimed as '_ b:':
```swift
func foo(_ a: Int, _ b: Int = 0, c: Int = 0, _ d: Int) {}
foo(1, c: 2, 3)
```
Resolves: rdar://problem/43525641
This builds on initial commit which added `RelabelArguments` fix
to the solver that only supported `missingLabels` at that moment,
but now it supports all three posibilities - missing/extraneous and
incorrect labels.
Let the solver disregard missing argument labels and record correct
ones, so such problem could be diagnosed later on iff there were no
other more serious failures.
* Improve label mismatch callback:
- Split "missing label" callback into 3 - missing, extraneous, incorrect (with typo(s));
- Allow label callbacks to indicate if it's a fatal error or not;
* Improve matching of the variadic parameters;
* Improve matching of the parameters with defaults;
* Try to look for an argument with matching label before fallback to
forced claming (if allowed).
While trying to emit implicit load expression make sure that it's
done in a way where force/paren expression is always top level,
that leads to better fix-its and, in case of forcing, more compact
SIL by intermediate optional container.
Resolves: [SR-8150](https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-8150) / rdar://problem/41725207
For Swift 3 / 4:
Deprecate the spelling "ImplicitlyUnwrappedOptional", emitting a warning
and suggesting "!" in places where they are allowed according to
SE-0054.
In places where SE-0054 disallowed IUOs but we continued to accept them
in previous compilers, emit a warning suggesting "Optional" or "?" as
an alternative depending on context and treat the IUO as an Optional,
noting this in the diagnostic.
For Swift 5:
Treat "ImplicitlyUnwrappedOptional" as an error, suggesting
"!" in places where they are allowed by SE-0054.
In places where SE-0054 disallowed IUOs, emit an error suggestion
"Optional" or "?" as an alternative depending on context.
Change the fix-it to move the argument to its correct location in one go. This happens by removing it from one location and inserting it in the other (as opposed to the original implementation which swapped one argument with the preceding one). The commas separating the arguments are adjusted to match the moved argument.
Add new tests for reordering regular arguments, variadic arguments, and function arguments.

Properly diagnose cases of function/subscript argument tuple
structuring/destructuring related by not limited to SE-0110.
Resolves: rdar://problem/31973368
Rather than relying on the embedding of default argument information
into tuple types (which is gross), make sure that the various clients
(type checker, type checker diagnostics, constraint application) can
dig out the callee declaration and retrieve that information from
there.
along with recent policy changes:
- For expression types that are not specifically handled, make sure to
produce a general "unused value" warning, catching a bunch of unused
values in the testsuite.
- For unused operator results, diagnose them as uses of the operator
instead of "calls".
- For calls, mutter the type of the result for greater specificity.
- For initializers, mutter the type of the initialized value.
- Look through OpenExistentialExpr's so we can handle protocol member
references propertly.
- Look through several other expressions so we handle @discardableResult
better.
The issue here is that the constraint solver was deciding on
FixKind::RelabelCallTuple as the fix for the problem and emitting the
diagnostic, even though there were two different fixes possible.
CSDiags has the infrastructure to support doing doing the right thing
here, but is only being used for ApplyExprs, not SubscriptExprs.
The solution is to fix both problems: remove FixKind::RelabelCallTuple,
to let CSDiags handle the problem, and enhance CSDiags to treat
SubscriptExpr more commonly with ApplyExpr. This improves several cases
where the solver was picking one solution randomly and suggesting that
as a fix, instead of listing that there are multiple different solutions.
This also rearranges the logic for diagnosing faulty ApplyExprs to group the logic
for a single candidate together in one place. Nothing really earth shattering here,
just yak shaving.
Requiring a variadic parameter to come at the end of the parameter
list is an old restriction that makes no sense nowadays, and which we
had all thought we had already lifted. It made variadic parameters
unusable with trailing closures or defaulted arguments, and made our
new print() design unimplementable.
Remove this restriction, replacing it with a less onerous and slightly
less silly restriction that we not have more than one variadic
parameter in a given parameter clause. Fixes rdar://problem/20127197.

win from this other than simplification. Some minor wins are that we handle varargs
better and don't get extraneous ()'s in types in some cases.

This came out of today's language review meeting.
The intent is to match #available with the attribute
that describes availability.
This is a divergence from Objective-C.
Swift SVN r28484
If you want to make the parameter and argument label the same in
places where you don't get the argument label for free (i.e., the
first parameter of a function or a parameter of a subscript),
double-up the identifier:
func translate(dx dx: Int, dy: Int) { }
Make this a warning with Fix-Its to ease migration. Part of
rdar://problem/17218256.
Swift SVN r27715
The rule changes are as follows:
* All functions (introduced with the 'func' keyword) have argument
labels for arguments beyond the first, by default. Methods are no
longer special in this regard.
* The presence of a default argument no longer implies an argument
label.
The actual changes to the parser and printer are fairly simple; the
rest of the noise is updating the standard library, overlays, tests,
etc.
With the standard library, this change is intended to be API neutral:
I've added/removed #'s and _'s as appropriate to keep the user
interface the same. If we want to separately consider using argument
labels for more free functions now that the defaults in the language
have shifted, we can tackle that separately.
Fixes rdar://problem/17218256.
Swift SVN r27704
Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.
Swift SVN r24504
These changes make the following improvements to how we generate diagnostics for expression typecheck failure:
- Customizing a diagnostic for a specific expression kind is as easy as adding a new method to the FailureDiagnosis class,
and does not require intimate knowledge of the constraint solver’s inner workings.
- As part of this patch, I’ve introduced specialized diagnostics for call, binop, unop, subscript, assignment and inout
expressions, but we can go pretty far with this.
- This also opens up the possibility to customize diagnostics not just for the expression kind, but for the specific types
involved as well.
- For the purpose of presenting accurate type info, partially-specialized subexpressions are individually re-typechecked
free of any contextual types. This allows us to:
- Properly surface subexpression errors.
- Almost completely avoid any type variables in our diagnostics. In cases where they could not be eliminated, we now
substitute in "_".
- More accurately indicate the sources of errors.
- We do a much better job of diagnosing disjunction failures. (So no more nonsensical ‘UInt8’ error messages.)
- We now present reasonable error messages for overload resolution failures, informing the user of partially-matching
parameter lists when possible.

Swift SVN r23782
Start capitalizing on some of the new diagnostic machinery in a few different ways:
- When mining constraints for type information, utilize constraints "favored" by the overload resolution process.
- When printing type variables, if the variable was created by opening a literal expression, utilize the literal
default type or conformance if possible.
- Utilize syntactic information when crafting diagnostics:
- If the constraint miner can produce a better diagnostic than the recorded failure, diagnose via constraints.
- Factor in the expression kind when choosing which types to include in a diagnostic message.
- Start customizing diagnostics based on the amount of type data available.
What does all this mean?
- Fewer type variables leaking into diagnostic messages.
- Far better diagnostics for overload resolution failures. Specifically, we now print proper argument type data
for failed function calls.
- No more "'Foo' is not convertible to 'Foo'" error messages
- A greater emphasis on type data means less dependence on the ordering of failed constraints. This means fewer
inscrutable diagnostics complaining about 'UInt8' when all the constituent expressions are of type Float.
So we still have a ways to go, but these changes should greatly improve the number of head-scratchers served up
by the type checker.
