In such a case the overridden function gets a new separate vtable entry.
With this change, the computation of class method callees only uses the information in sil_vtables (instead of ClassDecl members).
Fixes a compiler crash in various optimization passes.

The XXOptUtils.h convention is already established and parallels
the SIL/XXUtils convention.
New:
- InstOptUtils.h
- CFGOptUtils.h
- BasicBlockOptUtils.h
- ValueLifetime.h
Removed:
- Local.h
- Two conflicting CFG.h files
This reorganization is helpful before I introduce more
utilities for block cloning similar to SinkAddressProjections.
Move the control flow utilies out of Local.h, which was an
unreadable, unprincipled mess. Rename it to InstOptUtils.h, and
confine it to small APIs for working with individual instructions.
These are the optimizer's additions to /SIL/InstUtils.h.
Rename CFG.h to CFGOptUtils.h and remove the one in /Analysis. Now
there is only SIL/CFG.h, resolving the naming conflict within the
swift project (this has always been a problem for source tools). Limit
this header to low-level APIs for working with branches and CFG edges.
Add BasicBlockOptUtils.h for block level transforms (it makes me sad
that I can't use BBOptUtils.h, but SIL already has
BasicBlockUtils.h). These are larger APIs for cloning or removing
whole blocks.
With the advent of dynamic_function_ref the actual callee of such a ref
my vary. Optimizations should not assume to know the content of a
function referenced by dynamic_function_ref. Introduce
getReferencedFunctionOrNull which will return null for such function
refs. And getInitialReferencedFunction to return the referenced
function.
Use as appropriate.

Although I think it is a NFC, it makes it more safe. This change is to align the fix with what I did on the 4.1 branch.
Also remove the not needed $ chars in the function names in the test case.
The behavior of functions in other libraries may change in past/future versions of the library. So the compiler should not make any assumptions about them.

Compute the callees of the witness thunks in a witness table more
accurately. Patch from rdar://problem/23382111, originally written by
Mark Lacey a while back, polished up/tested by me.
This replaces the '[volatile]' flag. Now, class_method and
super_method are only used for vtable dispatch.
The witness_method instruction is still overloaded for use
with both ObjC protocol requirements and Swift protocol
requirements; the next step is to make it only mean the
latter, also using objc_method for ObjC protocol calls.
Not sure why but this was another "toxic utility method".
Most of the usages fell into one of three categories:
- The base value was always non-null, so we could just call
getCanonicalType() instead, making intent more explicit
- The result was being compared for equality, so we could
skip canonicalization and call isEqual() instead, removing
some boilerplate
- Utterly insane code that made no sense
There were only a couple of legitimate uses, and even there
open-coding the conditional null check made the code clearer.
Also while I'm at it, make the SIL open archetypes tracker
more typesafe by passing around ArchetypeType * instead of
Type and CanType.
If by chance we haven't imported the members of a particular class,
SIL should not fault them in if at all possible.
The test case was a pain to come up with; it involves a class using
a forward-declared protocol that's actually defined in Swift /in a
non-primary file/, where that protocol is never mentioned in the
primary file and the class's members are never accessed otherwise.

For example, strong_release may call a destructor. This information will be used e.g. by the escape analysis.
As destructors are potential calles now, FunctionOrder analysis will make sure that they will be scheduled for optimizations before their callers.
When devirtualizing witness method and class method calls, we
transform apply instructions operating on the result of a SIL
witness_method or class_method instruction to direct calls of
a function_ref.
The generic signature of the dynamic call site might not match
the generic signature of the static thunk, so the substitution
list from the dynamic apply instruction cannot be used directly;
instead, we must transform it to a substitution list suitable
for the static thunk.
- With witness methods, the method is called using the protocol
requirement's signature, <Self : P, ...>, however the
witness thunk has a generic signature derived from the
concrete witness.
For example, the requirement might have a signature
<Self : P, T>, where the concrete witness thunk might
have a signature <X, Y>, where the concrete conforming type
is G<X, Y>.
At the call site, we substitute Self := G<X', Y'>; however
to be able to call the witness thunk directly, we need to
form substitutions X := X' and Y := Y'.
- A similar situation occurs with class methods when the
dynamically-dispatched call is performed against a derived
class, but devirtualization actually finds the method on a
base class of the derived class.
The base class may have a different number of generic
parameters than the derived class, either because the
derived class makes some generic parameters of the base
class concrete, or if the derived class introduces new
generic parameters of its own.
In both cases, we need to consider the generic signature of the
dynamic call site (the protocol requirement or the derived
class method) as well as the generic signature of the static
thunk, and carefully remap the substitutions from one form
into another.
Previously the optimizer would implicitly rely on substitutions
being in AllArchetypes order, in particular that concatenating
outer substitutions with inner substitutions makes sense.
This assumption is about to go away, so this patch refactors
the optimizer to use some new abstractions for remapping
substitution lists.
Shaves about 19% of the time from the construction of these sets. The
SmallVector size was chosen to minimize the number of dynamic
allocations we end up doing while building the stdlib. This should be a
reasonable size for most projects, too. It's a bit wasteful in space,
but the total amount of allocated space here is pretty small to begin
with.
(libraries now)
It has been generally agreed that we need to do this reorg, and now
seems like the perfect time. Some major pass reorganization is in the
works.
This does not have to be the final word on the matter. The consensus
among those working on the code is that it's much better than what we
had and a better starting point for future bike shedding.
Note that the previous organization was designed to allow separate
analysis and optimization libraries. It turns out this is an
artificial distinction and not an important goal.
