to avoid some obvious redundancies. This also gives us a
more general framework with which to exploit other ways
in which metadata is known.

towards optimizing generic calls to derive things from the
'this' pointer, which is actually crucial for virtual
dispatch (to get all methods to agree about how the
implicit arguments are passed). Fix a number of assorted
bugs in metadata emission. Lots of assorted enhancements.
This was proving surprisingly difficult to actually tease
apart into smaller patches.

uncurrying level, which is something I find myself passing around
quite a bit. Make sure that it can propagate getter/setter
references in the same way.

This is kindof a pain in a few places where the type system
doesn't propagate canonicality. Also, member initializations
are always direct-initializations and so are allowed to use
explicit constructors, which is a hole in our canonicality
tracking. But overall I like the idea of always working
with canonical types.

method to initialize the members. This doesn't matter so much
for structs (the generated IR is essentially equivalent except for
small structs), but on classes, we don't want to make "new X" generate
code that knows about metadata/destructors/etc for the class X.
Also, make sure classes always have a constructor. (We haven't really
discussed the rules for implicitly declared constructors, so for now,
the rule is just "generate an implicit constructor if there is no
explicit constructor". We'll want to revisit this when we actually
design object construction.)

Mangling is still a hack, pending a better type AST. Fixed
a bug where arguments passed indirectly were not being destroyed
by the callee (when passed by value). Changed some of the protocol
signatures to use the generic opaque pointer type, making the
types a bit more self-documenting in the IR.

swift_retain calls. The pertinent difference is that the former can be
marked nocapture, allowing general LLVM optimizations more flexibility.
With this change, early-cse is able to zap 9 more instructions, and 3
more functions are able to be marked nocapture by functionattrs in the
stdlib.

match the actual entrypoints vended by the runtime:
1) there is no swift_slowRawAlloc
2) swift_deallocObject takes two arguments
Also, make all calls to swift_allocObject go through a common
function so that we can easily use optimized entrypoints if the
runtime provides them.

of protocol types to correctly handle self-assignment.
This ends up creating such a large amount of code that it's
worth extracting into its own helper function. Fortunately,
this can be the same helper function for every protocol type.

pointer TypeInfo more conveniently. Have this class return true for
isSingleRetainablePointer(). Further specialize the implementations
of the value witnesses so that we no longer ever require type-specific
witnesses for reference types.

value witnesses goes.
There are three major remaining things to do to support protocols:
- laying out the actual protocol members
- emitting witnesse for the actual protocol members
- detecting uses of the actual protocol members and funnelling
them through the witnesses as appropriate
All this work was just to let us treat protocol types as
first-class values.
Swift SVN r1899
exactly how the arguments are emitted. Introduce a new code path
which emits arguments from existing Explosions (possibly of the wrong
resilience level). Use that code path to implement getter/setter
code for MemberRefExpr l-values. This is just a checkpoint for the
latter two parts, but the ApplyExpr path is working correctly in the
new framework, which is worth a commit.
