This has the same semantics as open_existential_box, but returns an object value
instead of an address.
This is used in SIL opaque values mode. Attempting to reuse open_existential_box
in this mode causes SIL type inconsistencies that are too difficult to work
around. Adding this instruction allows for consistent handling of opaque values.
The original versions of several of these currently redundant instructions will
be removed once the SIL representation stabilizes.
These instructions have the same semantics as the *ExistentialAddr instructions
but operate directly on the existential value, not its address.
This is in preparation for adding ExistentialBoxValue instructions.
The previous name would cause impossible confusion with "opaque existentials"
and "opaque existential boxes".
Specifically, I tried to make it clearer that viewcfg does not rely on any type
information or declarations (i.e. it can dump raw textual CFGs). This also means
that it can be used in an editor to dump CFGs at your cursor?!
Thanks Erik for showing me this!
* IRGen: EmptyBoxType's representation cannot be nil because of a conflict with extra inhabitant assumption in indirect enums
We map nil to the .None case of Optional. Instead use a singleton object.

A handful of people have recently asked me if such a thing existed;
now it does. There's certainly more that can be added here, but I
wanted to dump a bunch of the information in my brain into doc form.
Previously, two constructors with the same full name and argument
types would get identical manglings even if they were declared
'private' or 'fileprivate' in different files. This would lead to
symbol collisions in whole-module builds. Add a new mangling node for
private discriminators on base-name-less decls to make this unique.
This still doesn't fix the existing issue with private members, named
or not, conflicting when they're in the /same/ file, but since Swift 4
makes those members visible to one another (SE-0169) that's only an
issue in Swift 3 mode anyway, and as such probably won't get fixed at
all.

* Fix a documentation build failure caused by missing _ underscore in footnote citation.
* Get archive/LangRef.html building again. I'm not sure this is the most desirable way to address the failure to locate archive/LangRef.html but I confirmed this causes the desired _build/html/archive/LangRef.html to be created when making docs.
- Allow them to use substitutions.
- Consistently use 'a' as a mangling operator.
- For generic typealiases, include the alias as context for any generic
parameters.
Typealiases don't show up in symbol names, which always refer to
canonical types, but they are mangled for debug info and for USRs
(unique identifiers used by SourceKit), so it's good to get this
right.
A protocol composition with an explicit 'AnyObject' member is
now mangled as <protocol list> 'Xl'. For subclass existentials,
I changed the mangling from <protocol list> <class> 'XE' to
<protocol list> <class> 'Xl'.
Not used for anything just yet.
array.append_element(newElement: Element)
array.append_contentsOf(contentsOf newElements: S)
And allow early inlining of them.
Those functions will be needed to optimize Array.append(contentsOf)
I filed some additional JIRA issues to track tasks mentioned in the
ABI Stability manifesto. This change just updates the document with those
issue numbers.
