Once the API has gone through Swift Evolution, we will want to implicitly
import the _Backtracing module. Add code to do that, but set it to off
by default for now.

Add '-validate-clang-modules-once' and '-clang-build-session-file' corresponding to Clang's '-fmodules-validate-once-per-build-session' and '-fbuild-session-file='. Ensure they are propagated to module interface build sub-invocations.
We require these to be first-class Swift options in order to ensure they are propagated to both: ClangImporter and implicit interface build compiler sub-invocations.

In https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/42486 new behavior was introduced to ignore adjacent .swiftmodule files in the SDK. This behavior has caught a few people off guard so it seems like there should be diagnostics clarifying why a rebuild is occurring in this scenario.
Resolves rdar://105477473
Introduce a new flag `-export-as` to specify a name used to identify the
target module in swiftinterfaces. This provides an analoguous feature
for Swift module as Clang's `export_as` feature.
In practice it should be used when a lower level module `MyKitCore` is
desired to be shown publicly as a downstream module `MyKit`. This should
be used in conjunction with `@_exported import MyKitCore` from `MyKit`
that allows clients to refer to all services as being part of `MyKit`,
while the new `-export-as MyKit` from `MyKitCore` will ensure that the
clients swiftinterfaces also use the `MyKit` name for all services.
In the current implementation, the export-as name is used in the
module's clients and not in the declarer's swiftinterface (e.g.
`MyKitCore`'s swiftinterface still uses the `MyKitCore` module name).
This way the module swiftinterface can be verified. In the future, we
may want a similar behavior for other modules in between `MyKitCore` and
`MyKit` as verifying a swiftinterface referencing `MyKit` without it
being imported would fail.

A macro declaration contains the external module and type name of the
macro's implementation. Use that information to find the macro type
(via its type metadata accessor) in a loaded plugin, so we no longer
require the "allMacros" array. Instead, each macro implementation type
must be a public struct.
Since we are now fully dependent on the macro declaration for
everything about a macro except its kind, remove most of the query
infrastructure for compiler plugins.
Replace the macro registration scheme based on the allMacros array with
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.

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.

Controlled with a new flag '-direct-clang-cc1-module-build'
This will allow clients to formulate 'swift-frontend' invocations with fully-specified set of cc1 arguments (using '-Xcc -Xclang -Xcc <FLAG>') required for the PCM build, without having to go through the driver.
Introduce the `-enable-upcoming-feature X` command-line argument to
allow one to opt into features that will be enabled in an upcoming language
mode. Stage in several features this way (`ConciseMagicFile`,
`ForwardTrailingClosures`, `BareSlashRegexLiterals`).
Prebuilt modules are only available for certain toolchain and SDK combinations. Therefore,
building modules from interface, even for the stdlib, is expected to happen.

Experimental features can only be enabled in non-production (+Asserts)
builds. They can be detected with `hasFeature` in the same manner as
"future" features.
The `-enable-experimental-feature X` flag will also look for future
features by that name, so that when an experimental feature becomes an
accepted future feature, it will still be enabled in the same manner.
Switch variadic generics over to this approach, eliminating the
specific LangOption for it.
Swiftc port of https://github.com/apple/llvm-project/pull/4207.
This introduces a new flag, `-file-prefix-map` which can be used
instead of the existing `-debug-prefix-map` and `-coverage-prefix-map`
flags, and also remaps paths in index information currently.
Temporarily downgrade the warning "unable to perform implicit import of '_StringProcessing' module: no such module found" to a remark to suppress some unuseful build noise.

This change removes the -emit-cxx-header option, and adds a new -emit-clang-header-path option instead. It's aliased to -emit-objc-header-path for now, but in the future, -emit-objc-header-path will alias to it. After this change Swift can start emitting a single header file that can be expose declarations to C, Objective-C, or C++. For now C++ interface is generated (for all public decls) only when -enable-cxx-interop flag is passed, but that behavior will change once attribute is supported.
SE-0343 is approved so it's time to pull the feature out from behind the
experimental feature flag. This patch pulls it out and deprecates
passing the flag to the frontend so that we can pull it out entirely
eventually.
- Frontend: Implicitly import `_StringProcessing` when frontend flag `-enable-experimental-string-processing` is set.
- Type checker: Set a regex literal expression's type as `_StringProcessing.Regex<(Substring, DynamicCaptures)>`. `(Substring, DynamicCaptures)` is a temporary `Match` type that will help get us to an end-to-end working system. This will be replaced by actual type inference based a regex's pattern in a follow-up patch (soon).
- SILGen: Lower a regex literal expression to a call to `_StringProcessing.Regex.init(_regexString:)`.
- String processing runtime: Add `Regex`, `DynamicCaptures` (matching actual APIs in apple/swift-experimental-string-processing), and `Regex(_regexString:)`.
Upcoming:
- Build `_MatchingEngine` and `_StringProcessing` modules with sources from apple/swift-experimental-string-processing.
- Replace `DynamicCaptures` with inferred capture types.
The effect of passing -enable-copy-propagation is both to enable the
CopyPropagation pass to shorten object lifetimes and also to enable
lexical lifetimes to ensure that object lifetimes aren't shortened while
a variable is still in scope and used.
Add a new flag, -enable-lexical-borrow-scopes=true to override
-enable-copy-propagation's effect (setting it to ::ExperimentalLate) on
SILOptions::LexicalLifetimes that sets it to ::Early even in the face of
-enable-copy-propagation. The old flag -disable-lexical-lifetimes is
renamed to -enable-lexical-borrow-scopes=false but continues to set that
option to ::Off even when -enable-copy-propagation is passed.
This additional supplement output should capture semantic info the compiler has
captured while building a Swift module. Similar to the source info file, the content of
the semantic info file should only be consumed by local tooling written in Swift.
We have implemented a libSwiftDriver-based tool to generate prebuilt module cache for
entire SDKs. Anchored on the same infrastructure, we could also generate ABI baselines
for entire SDKs.
