Together, UnsafePointer, UnsafeMutablePointer, UnsafeBufferPointer, and UnsafeMutableBufferPointer appear in standard library manglings over 1000 times, and they're fairly long names. Giving them standard substitutions shrinks the stdlib by 44KB.

'Ss' appears in manglings tens of thousands of times in the standard library and is also incredibly frequent in other modules. This alone is enough to shrink the standard library by 59KB.

This is more resilient, since we want to be able to add more information behind the address point of type objects. The start of the metadata object is now an internal "full metadata" symbol.
Note that we can't do this for known opaque metadata from the C++ runtime, since clang doesn't have a good way to emit offset symbol aliases, so for non-nominal metadata objects we still emit an adjustment inline. We also aren't able to generate references to aliases within the same module due to an MC bug with alias refs on i386 and armv7 (rdar://problem/22450593).

This is more resilient, since we want to be able to add more information behind the address point of type objects, and also makes IR a lot less cluttered. The start of the metadata object is now an internal "full metadata" symbol.

These will be used for reflection, and eventually to speed up generic
operations on single payload enums as well.
Progress on <rdar://problem/21739870>.

This enables dead argument elimination to be paired with @owned -> @guaranteed
optimization. It has the additional advantage of allowing us to potentially
eliminate additional retains, releases since the fact that the use is dead
implies that the lifetime of the value no longer needs to be live across the
function call.
Since dead argument elimination can be composed with @owned -> @guaranteed, I
had to modify the mangler, remangler, demangler, to be able to handle a mangling
that combines the two.
I just saw noise in the perf test suite.

Constrained and protocol extensions should always include the extension context in their mangling, since they are never equivalent to definitions in the original type context. Have them use the extension mangling, and include the generic signature of the extension in its mangling, which is necessary to disambiguate properties and other definitions that are defined with the same name and type in differently constrained extensions. Fixes rdar://problem/21027215.
Swift SVN r29209
As part of this, I've made the demangler base the colon-vs.-not
decision on the entity kind instead of assuming that anything
with a function type must be a function. It also looks through
new-style generics when it didn't before.
Swift SVN r28814
Share the logic we use to map archetype depth-index pairs to friendly unique names like 'A', 'B', so that demangle generic signatures are still somewhat readable, and so that archetype references into outer contexts with interface type manglings still make sense. Change the remangler to mangle archetypes and dependent generic params using nested index nodes instead of trying to parse the depth and index from the arbitrary names we give them.
Swift SVN r28343
Single generic parameters are common, as are a lack of requirements, so tweak things so that generic parameter counts are mangled as (count - 1), with a special mangling for zero, and give a single generic parameter at depth zero the empty-string mangling. Most requirements are protocol constraints, so use a better mangling for them that doesn't require the 'P..._' wrapping of the general type mangling. On the other hand, dependent member types ought to mangle in the protocol of the associated type, which adds some length, but isn't too bad since the protocol will almost definitely have a substitution introduced by a preceding protocol constraint.
Swift SVN r28296
Keep track of a second set of "direct method reference" curry thunks that don't end in a dynamic dispatch in order to properly implement a partial application such as 'let foo = super.foo'. Fixes rdar://problem/20598526.
Swift SVN r27538
The deallocating parameter convention is a new convention put on a
non-trivial parameter if the caller function guarantees to the callee
that the parameter has the deallocating bit set in its object header.
This means that retains and releases do not need to be emitted on these
parameters even though they are non-trivial. This helps to solve a bug
in +0 self and makes it trivial for the optimizer to perform
optimizations based on this property.
It is not emitted yet by SILGen and will only be put on the self
argument of Deallocator functions.
Swift SVN r26179
This lets us disambiguate the symbols for static and instance properties, and enables us to eventually leave the useless "self" type mangling out of method symbols. Fixes rdar://19012022 and dupes thereof, including crasher #1341.
Swift SVN r25111
If a subclass overrides methods with variance in the optionality of non-class-type members, emit a thunk to handle wrapping more optional parameters or results and force-unwrapping any IUO parameters made non-optional in the derived. For this to be useful, we need IRGen to finally pay attention to SILVTables, but this is a step on the way to fixing rdar://problem/19321484.

To get this to work, delay some "cleanup" work in the
demangler. For example, we now preserve in the tree
whether something was mangled as an allocating
initializer, and we only special-case the class vs.
non-class cases in the pretty printer.
Also fixes a number of remangling bugs, of course.

demangling tree back into a mangled string.
Also, extend the demangling API in a few obvious
ways, and simplify testing for failure in the
node-returning APIs by having them simply return
null instead of a spurious Failure node.
Also, preserve slightly more information in the
demangling tree. The goal here is eventually to
always allow a perfect round-trip through the
demangler parse tree. This patch gets us close,
but we're not quite there yet.
Tests to follow.
