As declared, Dictionary's keys and values were private. Instead of
hiding Map away as _Map, give it a "nice" verbose name and expose it
through a "nice" lowercase global function called map(), which we
overload so it works on both Collections and Sequences, returning a
Collection when that's what it started on.
We'll follow this pattern for filter, which was requested on Array. The
implementation is easy once you have a lazy view!

assert() and fatalError()
These functions are meant to be used in user code. They are enabled in debug
mode and disabled in release or fast mode.
_precondition() and _preconditionFailure()
These functions are meant to be used in library code to check preconditions at
the api boundry. They are enabled in debug mode (with a verbose message) and
release mode (trap). In fast mode they are disabled.
_debugPrecondition() and _debugPreconditionFailure()
These functions are meant to be used in library code to check preconditions that
are not neccesarily comprehensive for safety (UnsafePointer can be null or an
invalid pointer but we can't check both). They are enabled only in debug mode.
_sanityCheck() and _fatalError()
These are meant to be used for internal consistency checks. They are only
enabled when the library is build with -DSWIFT_STDLIB_INTERNAL_CHECKS=ON.
I modified the code in the standard library to the best of my judgement.

creating a Dictionary from a dictionary literal
Also fixes rdar://16876745, because once the code moved to using lower-level
interfaces, it became trivial to detect duplicate keys without a performance
hit.

The old ones were:
- print/println
- printAny
- printf
- Console
The new printing story is just print/println. Every object can be printed.
You can customize the way it is printed by adopting Printable protocol. Full
details in comments inside stdlib/core/OutputStream.swift.
Printing is not completely finished yet. We still have ReplPrintable, which
should be removed, string interpolation still uses String constructors, and
printing objects that don't conform to Printable will result in printing
mangled names.
