Mandatory pass will clean it up and replace it by a copy_block and
is_escaping/cond_fail/release combination on the %closure in follow-up
patches.
The instruction marks the dependence of a block on a closure that is
used as an 'withoutActuallyEscaping' sentinel.

Since the functions produce pointers with tightly-scoped lifetimes there's no formal reason these have to only work on `inout` things. Now that arguments can be +0, we can even do this without copying values that we already have at +0.
The main change here is that we no longer forward ownership through
unchecked_bitwise_cast. The reason why is that unchecked_bitwise_cast creates a
new "reference count" identity to the optimizer. This is reflected in the SIL
ownership model by unchecked_bitwise_cast returning a value with unowned
ownership. We really do not want to traffic in such values, so we copy the value
after the cast to ensure that result is valid.
Found while updating SILGen tests for +0.

Will be used to verify that withoutActuallyEscaping's block does not
escape the closure.
``%escaping = is_escaping_closure %closure`` tests the reference count. If the
closure is not uniquely referenced it prints out and error message and
returns true. Otherwise, it returns false. The returned result can be
used with a ``cond_fail %escaping`` instruction to abort the program.

- @noescape functions are trivial types
That makes @noescape functions incompatible with escaping functions.
- Forward ownership of mark_dependence %3 : callee_guaranteed () -> () on %0 : noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()
- SIL: Add ABIEscapeToNoEscapeConversion to SILFunctionType::ABICompatibilityCheckResult
- SIL: A thin_to_thick_function with a @noescape result type has trivial ownership
- SIL: thin_to_thick_function can create noescape function types

@noescape function types will eventually be trivial. A
convert_escape_to_noescape instruction does not take ownership of its
operand. It is a projection to the trivial value carried by the closure
-- both context and implementation function viewed as a trivial value.
A safe SIL program must ensure that the object that the project value is based
on is live beyond the last use of the trivial value. This will be
achieve by means of making the lifetimes dependent.
For example:
%e = partial_apply [callee_guaranteed] %f(%z) : $@convention(thin) (Builtin.Int64) -> ()
%n = convert_escape_to_noescape %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> () to $@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()
%n2 = mark_dependence %n : $@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> () on %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> ()
%f2 = function_ref @use : $@convention(thin) (@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()) -> ()
apply %f2(%n2) : $@convention(thin) (@noescape @callee_guaranteed () -> ()) -> ()
release_value %e : $@callee_guaranteed () -> ()
Note: This is not yet actually used.

* Reduce array abstraction on apple platforms dealing with literals
Part of the ongoing quest to reduce swift array literal abstraction
penalties: make the SIL optimizer able to eliminate bridging overhead
when dealing with array literals.
Introduce a new classify_bridge_object SIL instruction to handle the
logic of extracting platform specific bits from a Builtin.BridgeObject
value that indicate whether it contains a ObjC tagged pointer object,
or a normal ObjC object. This allows the SIL optimizer to eliminate
these, which allows constant folding a ton of code. On the example
added to test/SILOptimizer/static_arrays.swift, this results in 4x
less SIL code, and also leads to a lot more commonality between linux
and apple platform codegen when passing an array literal.
This also introduces a couple of SIL combines for patterns that occur
in the array literal passing case.
This replaces the '[volatile]' flag. Now, class_method and
super_method are only used for vtable dispatch.
The witness_method instruction is still overloaded for use
with both ObjC protocol requirements and Swift protocol
requirements; the next step is to make it only mean the
latter, also using objc_method for ObjC protocol calls.
introduce a common superclass, SILNode.
This is in preparation for allowing instructions to have multiple
results. It is also a somewhat more elegant representation for
instructions that have zero results. Instructions that are known
to have exactly one result inherit from a class, SingleValueInstruction,
that subclasses both ValueBase and SILInstruction. Some care must be
taken when working with SILNode pointers and testing for equality;
please see the comment on SILNode for more information.
A number of SIL passes needed to be updated in order to handle this
new distinction between SIL values and SIL instructions.
Note that the SIL parser is now stricter about not trying to assign
a result value from an instruction (like 'return' or 'strong_retain')
that does not produce any.
This commit contains:
-) adding the new instructions + infrastructure, like parsing, printing, etc.
-) support in IRGen to generate global object-variables (i.e. "heap" objects) which are statically initialized in the data section.
-) IRGen for global_value which lazily initializes the object header and returns a reference to the object.
For details see the documentation of the new instructions in SIL.rst.
This has the same semantics as open_existential_box, but returns an object value
instead of an address.
This is used in SIL opaque values mode. Attempting to reuse open_existential_box
in this mode causes SIL type inconsistencies that are too difficult to work
around. Adding this instruction allows for consistent handling of opaque values.
The original versions of several of these currently redundant instructions will
be removed once the SIL representation stabilizes.
These instructions have the same semantics as the *ExistentialAddr instructions
but operate directly on the existential value, not its address.
This is in preparation for adding ExistentialBoxValue instructions.
The previous name would cause impossible confusion with "opaque existentials"
and "opaque existential boxes".
Having such a builtin makes it easier for the optimizer to reason about what is actually happening.
I plan to add later some optimizations which can optimize pieces of code dominated by such a check.
