This should have identical behavior as the old epilogue retain matcher.
I do not see performance improvement.
The compilation time does not show up on Instrument either.
This consists of 3 parts:
1) Extend CallerAnalysis to also provide information if a function is partially applied
2) A new DeadArgSignatureOpt pass, similar to FunctionSignatureOpts, which just specializes for dead arguments of partially applied functions.
3) Let CapturePropagation eliminate such partial_apply instructions and replace them with a thin_to_thick conversion of the specialized functions.
This optimzation improves benchmarks where static struct or class functions are passed as a closure (e.g. -20% for SortStrings).
Such functions have a additional metatype parameter. We used to create a partial_apply in this case, which allocates a context, etc.
But this is not necessary as the metatype parameter is not used in most cases.

This re-instates commit de9622654d
The problem of the infinite loop should be fixed by the previous fix in FunctionSignatureOpts.
In addition this new commit implements a safety check to void such cases, even if buggy optimizations try to keep pushing new functions onto the work list.
Instead the pipeline is continued on the old function. This happens when a pass pushes a new, e.g. specialized function, on the function stack.
There is no need to repeat passes which already did run on a function.
It saves a little of compile time and I didn't see any significant impact on code size or performance.
It also simplifies the pass manager.
This establishes a real def-use relation from the self-parameter to any instruction which uses the dynamic-self type.
This is an addition to what was already done for opened archetypes.
The biggest part of this commit is to rename "OpenedArchetypeOperands" to "TypeDependentOperands" as this name is now more appropriate.
Other than that the change includes:
*) type-dependent operands are now printed after a SIL instruction in a comment as "type-defs:" (for debugging)
*) FuncationSignatureOpts doesn't need to explicitly check if a function doesn't bind dynamic self to remove a dead self metadata argument
*) the check if a function binds dynamic self (used in the inliner) is much simpler now
*) also collect type-dependent operands for ApplyInstBase::SubstCalleeType and not only in the substitution list
*) with this SILInstruction::mayHaveOpenedArchetypeOperands (used in CSE) is not needed anymore and removed
*) add type dependent operands to dynamic_method instruction
Regarding the generated code it should be a NFC.
Several functionalities have been added to FSO over time and the logic has become
muddled.
We were always looking at a static image of the SIL and try to reason about what kind of
function signature related optimizations we can do.
This can easily lead to muddled logic. e.g. we need to consider 2 different function
signature optimizations together instead of independently.
Split 1 single function to do all sorts of different analyses in FSO into several
small transformations, each of which does a specific job. After every analysis, we produce
a new function and eventually we collapse all intermediate thunks to in a single thunk.
With this change, it will be easier to implement function signature optimization as now
we can do them independently now.
Small modifications to the test cases.

This made call sites confusing to read because it doesn't actually
check if the function already exists.
Also fix some minor formatting issues. This came up while I was working
on a fix for a bug that turned out to not be a bug.
If we can not find the epilogue releases for all the fields with
reference sematics, but we found for some fields. Explode the argument.
I do not see a performance improvement with this change

Eventually, we decided to do this
1. Have the function signature opts (used to be called the cloner to create
the optimized function.
2. Mark the thunk as always_inline
3. Rely on the inliner to inline the thunk to get the benefit of calling optimized
function directly.
