This enables testing of other growth factors, per
<rdar://problem/17230502>. See the radar for basic performance test
results confirming (to the degree practical) that 2x growth is better
than 1.5x in our current system.

Will be useful in optimizing bulk array mutations such as sort()
Also stopped making UnsafeArray a generator; in general making a
collection a generator seems somewhat muddled and dangerous, especially
when it comes to adapters that may have reference semantics.

This helps array append's performance by ~ 2x. The generic max with a variadic
argument creates a temporary array then iterates over the array.

conform to LogicValue.
This approach was taken to keep _isNull because I first tried
to just use comparisons to nil instead of isNull(). Apparently
that led to some circular definitions, so it was easier to just
stage it this way.

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.

Once we know that the storage is contiguous we use the new API _NthContiguous.
We can further optimize this code by specializing the access to ascii or UTF-16.
