Ensure that context descriptor pointers are signed in the runtime by putting the ptrauth_struct attribute on the types.
We use the new __builtin_ptrauth_struct_key/disc to conditionally apply ptrauth_struct to TrailingObjects based on the signing of the base type, so that pointers to TrailingObjects get signed when used with a context descriptor pointer.
We add new runtime entrypoints that take signed pointers where appropriate, and have the compiler emit calls to the new entrypoints when targeting a sufficiently new OS.

Currently ignored, but this will allow future compilers to pass down source location information for cast
failure runtime errors without backward deployment constraints.
We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

* Remove RegisterPreservingCC. It was unused.
* Remove DefaultCC from the runtime. The distinction between C_CC and DefaultCC
was unused and inconsistently applied. Separate C_CC and DefaultCC are
still present in the compiler.
* Remove function pointer indirection from runtime functions except those
that are used by Instruments. The remaining Instruments interface is
expected to change later due to function pointer liability.
* Remove swift_rt_ wrappers. Function pointers are an ABI liability that we
don't want, and there are better ways to get nonlazy binding if we need it.
The fully custom wrappers were only needed for RegisterPreservingCC and
for optimizing the Instruments function pointers.
