81ac311c83 Swift Optimizer: add the DeadEndBlocks utility for finding dead-end blocks.
Dead-end blocks are blocks from which there is no path to the function exit (`return`, `throw` or unwind).
These are blocks which end with an unreachable instruction and blocks from which all paths end in "unreachable" blocks.

a8b58735fc Swift Optimizer: improve ergonomics of EscapeUtils
Replace the `struct EscapeInfo` with a simpler API, just consisting of methods of `ProjectedValue` and `Value`:
* `isEscaping()`
* `isAddressEscaping()`
* `visit()`
* `visitAddress()`

2137e41502 Swift SIL: add ProjectedValue.
A projected value consists of the original value and a projection path.
For example, if the `value` is of type `struct S { var x: Int }` and `path` is `s0`, then the projected value represents field `x` of the original value.

Also, use ProjectedValue instead of AccessStoragePath.

1407846656 docs: update SIL-Utilities.md
And move it out of the "proposals" folder, directly into "docs". It's now more a documentation of what we have and useful as a programming guide.
