This is basically the old mangling scheme. The option -remangle-objc-rt remangles a new mangled name to the old scheme.
This is useful to test the old remangler, which is used in the swift runtime to create the ObjC runtime names.
Demangle such suffixes as "unmangled suffix"
IRGen still uses '.<n>' to disambiguate partial apply thunks and outlined copy functions.

As it’s not clear if we will need underscores, the demangler accepts $S and _$S.
Note that a double underscore is handled by the demangler client.

Previously it was part of swiftBasic.
The demangler library does not depend on llvm (except some header-only utilities like StringRef). Putting it into its own library makes sure that no llvm stuff will be linked into clients which use the demangler library.
This change also contains other refactoring, like moving demangler code into different files. This makes it easier to remove the old demangler from the runtime library when we switch to the new symbol mangling.
Also in this commit: remove some unused API functions from the demangler Context.

This makes the demangler about 10 times faster.
It also changes the lifetimes of nodes. Previously nodes were reference-counted.
Now the returned demangle node-tree is owned by the Demangler class and it’s lifetime ends with the lifetime of the Demangler.
Therefore the old (and already deprecated) global functions demangleSymbolAsNode and demangleTypeAsNode are no longer available.
Another change is that the demangling for reflection now only supports the new mangling (which should be no problem because
we are generating only new mangled names for reflection).
It also uses the new mangling for type names in meta-data (except for top-level non-generic classes).
lldb has now support for new mangled metadata type names.
This reinstates commit 21ba292943.
Instead of a global demangleSymbolAsNode, which returns a reference-counted NodePointer, there is now a Context class which owns the nodes.
So now demangleSymbolAsNode is a member of Context and the returned NodePointer is alive as long as the Context is alive.
This is still a NFC: the new ABI still maps to the old functions.
The purpose of this change is to let lldb adapt to the new API and then we can switch to the new implementation.
For this we are linking the new re-mangler instead of the old one into the swift runtime library.
Also we are linking the new de-mangling into the swift runtime library.
It also switches to the new mangling for class names of generic swift classes in the metadata.
Note that for non-generic class we still have to use the old mangling, because the ObjC runtime in the OS depends on it (it de-mangles the class names).
But names of generic classes are not handled by the ObjC runtime anyway, so there should be no problem to change the mangling for those.
The reason for this change is that it avoids linking the old re-mangler into the runtime library.
I also added a macro called INITIALIZE_LLVM(argc, argv) which moves this logic
into one place and should be used at the beginning of *all* binaries. It
initializes an LLVM shutdown object, sets up the pretty stack trace, and then
initializes all of the parts of LLVM. This will make it easy to update this in
the future.
The reason why a macro was required was because of llvm_shutdown_obj, an RAII
object that cleans up LLVM. It has to be at the function level scope of the main
function.

Break up "Simplified" demangling mode (shortened demangled descriptions
for the sake of displaying in UI with small areas) into more
fine-grained options instead of an opaque "Simplified" option and
provide a static preset of options for displaying stack traces in
Xcode UI and other tools, for example.
- Don't print unmangled suffixes
- Don't print module names
- Shorten various generic specialization descriptions as just
"specialized"
- Don't display long protocol conformances
- Truncate where clauses
- Don't display so-called "entity" types
- Shorten "partial apply *"
- Shorten thunk phrases
- Shorten value witness phrases
- Truncate archetype references

To support UI applications displaying demangled names in a limited
amount of screen space, provide a new SwiftDemangle API and Demangler
option to do the following:
- Skip all module name prefixes when printing contexts
- Don't print implicit self/metatype parameters when printing
function types
Add a '-simplified' flag to swift-demangle to support testing at the
command line.

To get this to work, delay some "cleanup" work in the
demangler. For example, we now preserve in the tree
whether something was mangled as an allocating
initializer, and we only special-case the class vs.
non-class cases in the pretty printer.
Also fixes a number of remangling bugs, of course.
Swift SVN r24534
demangling tree back into a mangled string.
Also, extend the demangling API in a few obvious
ways, and simplify testing for failure in the
node-returning APIs by having them simply return
null instead of a spurious Failure node.
Also, preserve slightly more information in the
demangling tree. The goal here is eventually to
always allow a perfect round-trip through the
demangler parse tree. This patch gets us close,
but we're not quite there yet.
Tests to follow.
Swift SVN r24473
The new demangler is in the "swift/SIL/Demangle.{h|cpp}" files, and in the swift::Demangle namespace, which has two public entry points:
std::string demangleSymbol(llvm::StringRef mangled);
std::string demangleType(llvm::StringRef mangled);
This was necessary to support the need for LLDB to demangle Swift symbol (and type) names
Test case is included
