Sorting was a bit of a mess; we had sort functions doing in-place
mutation /and/ returing the value, and people were confused by the
asymmetry of Array's sort() method with other higher-level methods.
Fixes <rdar://problem/17185815> sort([]T, f) mutates the original array
<rdar://problem/17225190> The Array.sort() method should return a sorted array

The old ones were:
- print/println
- printAny
- printf
- Console
The new printing story is just print/println. Every object can be printed.
You can customize the way it is printed by adopting Printable protocol. Full
details in comments inside stdlib/core/OutputStream.swift.
Printing is not completely finished yet. We still have ReplPrintable, which
should be removed, string interpolation still uses String constructors, and
printing objects that don't conform to Printable will result in printing
mangled names.
