This is cleaner and it fixes a bunch of cases the old code didn't handle: @objc protocols, class bounds, and superclass constraints.
rdar://problem/56044443
This fixes cases like `type is T.Type` when T is generic specialized to a protocol type.
Note: the compiler can still optimize these checks away and will optimize this check down to `false` in some cases. We'll want to fix that as well.

This makes for a cleaner and less implicit-context-heavy API, and makes it easier for symbolic
reference resolvers to do context-dependent things (like map the in-memory base address back to a
remote address in MetadataReader).
The swift side signature for `swift_swiftValueConformsTo` is:
`func swift_swiftValueConformsTo<T>(_: T.self) -> Bool`
This translates to:
`bool swift_swiftValueConformsTo(const Metadata *, const Metadata *)`
The elided parameter would be passed invalid values.. Running this on
Windows with optimizations triggered an optimization where the parameter
happened to be null as `rdx` is the second parameter rather than the 4th
parameter.
This is essentially a long-belated follow-up to Arnold's #12606.
The key observation here is that the enum-tag-single-payload witnesses
are strictly more powerful than the XI witnesses: you can simulate
the XI witnesses by using an extra case count that's <= the XI count.
Of course the result is less efficient than the XI witnesses, but
that's less important than overall code size, and we can work on
fast-paths for that.
The extra inhabitant count is stored in a 32-bit field (always present)
following the ValueWitnessFlags, which now occupy a fixed 32 bits.
This inflates non-XI VWTs on 32-bit targets by a word, but the net effect
on XI VWTs is to shrink them by two words, which is likely to be the
more important change. Also, being able to access the XI count directly
should be a nice win.
Currently ignored, but this will allow future compilers to pass down source location information for cast
failure runtime errors without backward deployment constraints.
_dynamicCastToAnyHashable assumed that _swift_convertToAnyHashableIndirect takes its argument at +1, but that is no longer the case.

When checking conformance requirements against an @objc protocol, also
check for an @objc existential using protocol_conformsToProtocol().
Fixes rdar://problem/45685649.
When searching the superclasses at runtime, e.g., to find a suitable
protocol conformance record, also consider the superclasses of CF
types, which were recorded in the metadata but otherwise unused.
Have clients pass the requirement base descriptor to
swift_getAssociatedTypeWitness(), so that the witness index is just one
subtraction away, avoiding several dependent loads (witness table ->
conformance descriptor -> protocol descriptor -> requirement offset)
in the hot path.
Rather than storing associated type metadata access functions in
witness tables, initially store a pointer to a mangled type name.
On first access, demangle that type name and replace the witness
table entry with the resulting type metadata.
This reduces the code size of protocol conformances, because we no
longer need to create associated type metadata access functions for
every associated type, and the mangled names are much smaller (and
sharable). The same code size improvements apply to defaulted
associated types for resilient protocols, although those are more
rare. Witness tables themselves are slightly smaller, because we
don’t need separate private entries in them to act as caches.
On the caller side, associated type metadata is always produced via
a call to swift_getAssociatedTypeWitness(), which handles the demangling
and caching behavior.
In all, this reduces the size of the standard library by ~70k. There
are additional code-size wins that are possible with follow-on work:
* We can stop emitting type metadata access functions for non-resilient
types that have constant metadata (like `Int`), because they’re only
currently used as associated type metadata access functions.
* We can stop emitting separate associated type reflection metadata,
because the reflection infrastructure can use these mangled names
directly.
The signature of this function pointer was incorrect, because it had not
yet been updated for the metadata request/response architecture. We
were getting lucky (!).
These functions don't accept local variable heap memory, although the names make it sound like they work on anything. When you try, they mistakenly identify such things as ObjC objects, call through to the equivalent objc_* function, and crash confusingly. This adds Object to the name of each one to make it more clear what they accept.

In a generic requirement, distinguish between Swift and
Objective-C protocols using a spare bit within the relative
(indirectable) reference to the protocol.
Use ProtocolDescriptorRefs within the runtime representation of
existential type metadata (TargetExistentialTypeMetadata) instead of
bare protocol descriptor pointers. Start rolling out the use of
ProtocolDescriptorRef in a few places in the runtime that touch this
code. Note that we’re not yet establishing any strong invariants on
the TargetProtocolDescriptorRef instances.
While here, replace TargetExistentialTypeMetadata’s hand-rolled pointer
arithmetic with swift::ABI::TrailingObjects and centralize knowledge of
its layout better.
Since the mangling scheme and set of standard library types is effectively
fixed now, introduce known mangling substitutions for a number of new
standard library types, filling out the S[A-Za-z] space.
Reduces standard library binary size by ~195k.
libstdc++ included with GCC 4.8 does not define `std::max_align_t` as
required by the C++11 specification. As a workaround, explicitly create
the definition locally. This was fixed in GCC 4.9 and later.
The real work is done in checkDynamicCastFromOptional. This code tried to unwrap the source and returned the payload on success. It only did this once, so a type like Optional<Optional<Int>> would come out as Optional<Int> and then a cast to Int would fail.
This change makes checkDynamicCastFromOptional recursive, which makes it unwrap as many levels of Optional as it encounters.
Fixes rdar://problem/40171034 and SR-7664.
We want to be able to potentially introduce new metadata kinds in future Swift compilers, so a runtime ought to be able to degrade gracefully in the face of metadata kinds it doesn't know about. Remove attempts to exhaustively switch over metadata kinds and instead treat unknown metadata kinds as opaque.
This hoists out the retain into Swift code from the casting runtime and along a
few paths in the runtime allows us to eliminate a dynamic retain release.

This is truly a consuming operation. This can be seen since we always would need
to retain the argument here. This makes guaranteed -> owned less transformation
effective. Instead represent it taking a +1 argument so that the retain happens
outside the builtin instead of inside the builtin.
This also allows me to remove an extra copy from dynamicCastValueToNSError
rdar://38771331
The logic here is causing leaks in some situations, and it's likely we'll want
bridging calls to go back to +1 again anyway, so do the minimum adaptation to
the +0 convention for now.

Minimize the generic class metadata template by removing the
class header and base-class members. Add back the set of
information that's really required for instantiation.
Teach swift_allocateGenericClass how to allocate classes without
superclass metadata. Reorder generic initialization to establish
a stronger phase-ordering between allocation (the part that doesn't
really care about the generic arguments) and initialization (the
part that really does care about the generic arguments and therefore
might need to be delayed to handle metadata cycles).
A similar thing needs to happen for resilient class relocation.
The dumper method dumps:
1. The container's metadata pointer.
2. A pointer to the container's value.
3. Whether or not said value is stored inline in the container.
This provides a general overview that can be used even when working with SIL
code in the debugger by grabbing a pointer to swift Anys and then calling the
c++ any method upon them.
The verifier is intended to be used in conjunction with ASAN for maximum
effect to catch use-after-frees of existential boxes.
While implementing this I refactored some code from ExistentialTypeMetadata into
methods on OpaqueExistentialContainer. ExistentialTypeMetadata just calls these
methods now instead of implementing the code inline.
@objc protocols don't have witness tables. However, both type metadata
(in the nominal type descriptors) and the runtime code to demangle
type names into metadata weren't acknowledging this. Fix type metadata
emission to not count an "extra argument" for @objc protocol
conformance requirements, and teach the runtime code to properly look
for conformances to @objc protocols (through the Objective-C runtime)
and not record witness tables for them.
