Raw identifiers are backtick-delimited identifiers that can contain any
non-identifier character other than the backtick itself, CR, LF, or other
non-printable ASCII code units, and which are also not composed entirely
of operator characters.
We previously did not properly compute the link info for type metadata
accessor. This becomes a problem for metadata accessors which are
canonically remote (e.g. the type metadata accessor for `NSError`). This
fixes the incorrect DLLStorage that was being attributed to these
functions.
When it's available, use an open-coded allocator function that returns
an alloca without popping if the allocator is nullptr and otherwise
calls swift_coro_alloc. When it's not available, use the malloc
allocator in the synchronous context.
This patch fixes two instances of the compiler embedded in LLDB
miscompiling code for expression evaluation, because of a combination of
the debugger's access to private types and resilience, which would cause
the generated code to access fields indirectly through resilience functions
that were never emitted.

The well known builtin and structural types are strongly defined in the
runtime which is compacted into the standard library. Given that the VWT
is defined in the runtime, it is not visible to the Swift compilation
process and as we do not provide a Swift definition, we would previously
compute the linkage as being module external (`dllimport` for shared
library builds). This formed incorrect references to these variables and
would require thunking to adjust the references.
One special case that we add here is the "any function" type
representation (`@escaping () -> ()`) as we do use the VWT for this type
in the standard library but do not consider it part of the well known
builtin or structural type enumeration.
These errors were previously being swallowed by the build system and
thus escaped from being fixed when the other cases of incorrect DLL
storage were.
The main change here is to associate a witness table with a `ProtocolConformance` instead of a `RootProtocolConformance`.
A `ProtocolConformance` is the base class and can be a `RootProtocolConformance` or a `SpecializedProtocolConformance`.
Motivated by need for protocol-based dynamic dispatch, which hasn't been possible in Embedded Swift due to a full ban on existentials. This lifts that restriction but only for class-bound existentials: Class-bound existentials are already (even in desktop Swift) much more lightweight than full existentials, as they don't need type metadata, their containers are typically 2 words only (reference + wtable pointer), don't incur copies (only retains+releases).
Included in this PR:
[x] Non-generic class-bound existentials, executable tests for those.
[x] Extension methods on protocols and using those from a class-bound existential.
[x] RuntimeEffects now differentiate between Existential and ExistentialClassBound.
[x] PerformanceDiagnostics don't flag ExistentialClassBound in Embedded Swift.
[x] WTables are generated in IRGen when needed.
Left for follow-up PRs:
[ ] Generic classes support
Those functions are effectively outlined functions with an alwaysinline
attribute. By removing their debug info and relying on the inliner to propagate
the call site location to the inlined instructions, we restore the "original"
locations as if the function had never been outlined.
This is technically relying on an implementation detail of the inliner, but it
seems to be the simplest way of addressing this issue.
The patch adds lowering of partial_apply instructions for coroutines.
This pattern seems to trigger a lot of type mismatch errors in IRGen, because
coroutine functions are not substituted in the same way as regular functions
(see the patch 07f03bd2 "Use pattern substitutions to consistently abstract
yields" for more details).
Other than that, lowering of partial_apply for coroutines is straightforward: we
generate another coroutine that captures arguments passed to the partial_apply
instructions. It calls the original coroutine for yields (first return) and
yields the resulting values. Then it calls the original function's continuation
for return or unwind, and forwards them to the caller as well.
After IRGen, LLVM's Coroutine pass transforms the generated coroutine (along with
all other coroutines) and eliminates llvm.coro.* intrinsics. LIT tests check
LLVM IR after this transformation.
