Prepare to accept the `ipi` argument to the `-library-level` flag. IPI
stands for Internal Programming Interface and would describe a module
that's not to be distributed outside of its project.
In the future, the compiler could use that information to report when a
distributed module (api or spi) imports publicly a module that's not
distributed.

In AliasModuleNames, avoid wrongfully printing aliased names for modules
that were not aliased. This can happen in the case of modules indirectly
imported via a reexport.

If there's a reference in API to a module that's not imported, the
import is inserted automatically in the swiftinterface. This ensures the
inserted import is correctly aliased in AliasModuleNames mode.
The pass to decide which functions should get stack protection was added in https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/60933, but was disabled by default.
This PR enables stack protection by default, but not the possibility to move arguments into temporaries - to keep the risk low.
Moving to temporaries can be enabled with the new frontend option `-enable-move-inout-stack-protector`.

Ambiguities are introduced in generated swiftinterfaces when a type
shares a name with a module (i.e. XCTest). This workaround uses the
module-alias feature to avoid these ambiguities. Writing module
references with a distinguishable prefix should allow normal
type-checking to avoid the usual ambiguities.
We should still aim for a proper fully-qualified named syntax, but this
may help in the mean time.

Allow user-defined macros to be loaded from dynamic libraries and evaluated.
- Introduce a _CompilerPluginSupport module installed into the toolchain. Its `_CompilerPlugin` protocol acts as a stable interface between the compiler and user-defined macros.
- Introduce a `-load-plugin-library <path>` attribute which allows users to specify dynamic libraries to be loaded into the compiler.
A macro library must declare a public top-level computed property `public var allMacros: [Any.Type]` and be compiled to a dynamic library. The compiler will call the getter of this property to obtain and register all macros.
Known issues:
- We current do not have a way to strip out unnecessary symbols from the plugin dylib, i.e. produce a plugin library that does not contain SwiftSyntax symbols that will collide with the compiler itself.
- `MacroExpansionExpr`'s type is hard-coded as `(Int, String)`. It should instead be specified by the macro via protocol requirements such as `signature` and `genericSignature`. We need more protocol requirements in `_CompilerPlugin` to handle this.
- `dlopen` is not secure and is only for prototyping use here.

Intro ASTContext::setIgnoreAdjacentModules to change module loading to
accept load only resilient modules from their swiftinterfaces, ignoring
the adjacent module and any silencing swiftinterfaces errors.
Push the top level logic for writing out swiftmodules and associated files into the frontend library which has access to all the necessary dependencies.
These libraries formed a strongly connected component in the CMake build graph. The weakest link I could find was from IDE to FrontendTool and Frontend, which was necessitated by the `CompileInstance` class (https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/40645). I moved a few files out of IDE into a new IDETools library to break the cycle.
