2d127e4192 Reinstate ”Use the new mangling for reflection."
It also uses the new mangling for type names in meta-data (except for top-level non-generic classes).
lldb has now support for new mangled metadata type names.

This reinstates commit 21ba292943.

254f36aba5 Revert "Use the new mangling for reflection."
This needs some changes in lldb.
Disabled for now until lldb supports the new mangling.

This reverts commit 21ba292943.

21ba292943 Use the new mangling for reflection.
For this we are linking the new re-mangler instead of the old one into the swift runtime library.
Also we are linking the new de-mangling into the swift runtime library.

It also switches to the new mangling for class names of generic swift classes in the metadata.
Note that for non-generic class we still have to use the old mangling, because the ObjC runtime in the OS depends on it (it de-mangles the class names).
But names of generic classes are not handled by the ObjC runtime anyway, so there should be no problem to change the mangling for those.
The reason for this change is that it avoids linking the old re-mangler into the runtime library.

5ea5bb06a3 Split swift-refleciton-test into host and target test targets
swift-reflection-test is now the test that forks a swift executable
and performs remote reflection, making it runnable on other targets,
such as the iOS simulator.

swift-reflection-dump is now a host-side tool that dumps the remote
reflection sections for any platform binary and will continue to
link in LLVM object file support.

This necessitates finally moving lib/Refleciton into stdlib/public,
since we're linking target-specific versions of the test tool and
we would eventually like to adopt some of this functionality in
the runtime anyway.
