This reflects the fact that the attribute's only for compiler-internal use, and isn't really equivalent to C's asm attribute, since it doesn't change the calling convention to be C-compatible.
All refutable patterns and function parameters marked with 'var'
is now an error.
- Using explicit 'let' keyword on function parameters causes a warning.
- Don't suggest making function parameters mutable
- Remove uses in the standard library
- Update tests

Revert "For unsafeReferenceCast rely on static verifier checks."
This reverts commit r32796.
This reverts commit r32795.
They very likely broke a buildbot.

unsafeBitCast should only be used when we actually need to lie to the type system (as opposed to just having an unchecked downcast).
Theses are the places where unsafeReferenceCast makes sense:
(In general it makes sense whenever the source & dest are class or class existential types)
- ArrayBuffer.getElement.
The deferred downcast case cannot be benchmarked. It is never on the critical path.
The ObjC array case cannot conceivably matter either, however, it is touched by
DollarChain, JSONHelperDeserialize, and StrSplitter.
These benchmarks do not regress at -O.
- arrayForceCast
No regressions at -O based on microbenchmarks.
None of these remaining cases affect PerfTestSuite at -O:
- General ObjC bridging
- Set/Dictionary bridging
- String bridging
- AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer
These are confirmed speedups but I did not investigate the cause:

Revert "Add test cases to exercise the native String vs cocoa buffer String path."
Revert "stdlib: Add back a test I removed"
Revert "stdlib: Fix hasPrefix,hasSuffix tests"
Revert "stdlib: Add documentation for the cached ascii collation tables"
This reverts commit 31493, 31492, 31491, 31490, 31489.
There are linking errors in SwiftExternalProjects (we probably have to link
against libicucore somewhere).
Swift SVN r31543
Reapply of 31474 with a fix in _compareCocoaBuffer to use the bufferSizeRhs
variable instead of bufferSizeLhs for the right hand side buffer.
We no longer create intermediate NSString copies to compare and hash swift
Strings. Instead we call directly into the ICU library.
I measured a 1.2 to 2x improvement on dictionary benchmarks as a result of this.
The SuperChars benchmark is also about 1.2x faster because of this.
Pure ASCII comparison has gotten a little bit slower (20% on a pure comparison
micro-benchmark) because we no longer do a memcmp. Doing a memcmp on ASCII is
not the same as the default unicode collation. Instead we have to a string scan.
The default unicode collation does not order like ASCII does and ignores
characters (for example the \0 character).

Revert "stdlib: Add back a test I removed"
Revert "Add test cases to exercise the native String vs cocoa buffer String path."
Revert "stdlib: Move the darwin String implementation over to use the ICU library."
This reverts commit r31477, r31476, r31475, r31474.
Commit r31474 broke the ASAN build.

...replacing it with the new, after passing API review!
* The lazy free function has become a property.
* Before we could extend protocols, we lacked a means for value types to
share implementations, and each new lazy algorithm had to be added to
each of up to four types: LazySequence, LazyForwardCollection,
LazyBidirectionalCollection, and LazyRandomAccessCollection. These
generic adapters hid the usual algorithms by defining their own
versions that returned new lazy generic adapters. Now users can extend
just one of two protocols to do the same thing: LazySequenceType or
LazyCollectionType.
* To avoid making the code duplication worse than it already was, the
generic adapters mentioned above were used to add the lazy generic
algorithms around simpler adapters such as MapSequence that just
provided the basic requirements of SequenceType by applying a
transformation to some base sequence, resulting in deeply nested
generic types as shown here. Now, MapSequence is an instance of
LazySequenceType (and is renamed LazyMapSequence), and thus transmits
laziness to its algorithms automatically.
* Documentation comments have been rewritten.
* The .array property was retired
* various renamings
* A bunch of Gyb files were retired.

Remove these standard library types in favor of (T) -> () closures.
It was originally believed that generic optimizations would make these
types profitable, however:

This came out of today's language review meeting.
The intent is to match #available with the attribute
that describes availability.
This is a divergence from Objective-C.

<rdar://20494686>
String itsef should only expose Unicode-correct algorithms, like proper
substring/prefix/suffix search, enumerating words/lines/paragraphs, case
folding etc. Promoting sequence-centric algorithms to methods on String
is not acceptable since it invites users to write wrong code. Thus,
String has to lose its SequenceType conformance.
Nevertheless, we recognize that sometimes it is useful to manipulate the
String contents on lower levels (UTF-8, UTF-16, Unicode scalars,
extended grapheme clusters), for example, when implementing high-level
Unicode operations, so we can't remove low-level operations
altogether. For this reason, String provides nested "views" for the
first three low-level representations, but grapheme clusters were in a
privileged position -- String itself is a collection of grapheme
clusters. We propose to add a characters view that will represent the
String as a collection of Character values.
