introduce a common superclass, SILNode.
This is in preparation for allowing instructions to have multiple
results. It is also a somewhat more elegant representation for
instructions that have zero results. Instructions that are known
to have exactly one result inherit from a class, SingleValueInstruction,
that subclasses both ValueBase and SILInstruction. Some care must be
taken when working with SILNode pointers and testing for equality;
please see the comment on SILNode for more information.
A number of SIL passes needed to be updated in order to handle this
new distinction between SIL values and SIL instructions.
Note that the SIL parser is now stricter about not trying to assign
a result value from an instruction (like 'return' or 'strong_retain')
that does not produce any.
Most of this involved sprinkling ValueOwnershipKind::Owned in many places. In
some of these places, I am sure I was too cavalier and I expect some of them to
be trivial. The verifier will help me to track those down.
On the other hand, I do expect there to be some places where we are willing to
accept guaranteed+trivial or owned+trivial. In those cases, I am going to
provide an aggregate ValueOwnershipKind that will then tell SILArgument that it
should disambiguate using the type. This will eliminate the ackwardness from
such code.
I am going to use a verifier to fix such cases.
This commit also begins the serialization of ValueOwnershipKind of arguments,
but does not implement parsing of value ownership kinds. That and undef are the
last places that we still use ValueOwnershipKind::Any.

We preserve the current behavior of assuming Any ownership always and use
default arguments to hide this change most of the time. There are asserts now in
the SILBasicBlock::{create,replace,insert}{PHI,Function}Argument to ensure that
the people can only create SILFunctionArguments in entry blocks and
SILPHIArguments in non-entry blocks. This will ensure that the code in tree
maintains the API distinction even if we are not using the full distinction in
between the two.
Once the verifier is finished being upstreamed, I am going to audit the
createPHIArgument cases for the proper ownership. This is b/c I will be able to
use the verifier to properly debug the code. At that point, I will also start
serializing/printing/parsing the ownershipkind of SILPHIArguments, but lets take
things one step at a time and move incrementally.
In the process, I also discovered a CSE bug. I am not sure how it ever worked.
Basically we replace an argument with a new argument type but return the uses of
the old argument to refer to the old argument instead of a new argument.

For a long time, we have:
1. Created methods on SILArgument that only work on either function arguments or
block arguments.
2. Created code paths in the compiler that only allow for "function"
SILArguments or "block" SILArguments.
This commit refactors SILArgument into two subclasses, SILPHIArgument and
SILFunctionArgument, separates the function and block APIs onto the subclasses
(leaving the common APIs on SILArgument). It also goes through and changes all
places in the compiler that conditionalize on one of the forms of SILArgument to
just use the relevant subclass. This is made easier by the relevant APIs not
being on SILArgument anymore. If you take a quick look through you will see that
the API now expresses a lot more of its intention.
The reason why I am performing this refactoring now is that SILFunctionArguments
have a ValueOwnershipKind defined by the given function's signature. On the
other hand, SILBlockArguments have a stored ValueOwnershipKind. Rather than
store ValueOwnershipKind in both instances and in the function case have a dead
variable, I decided to just bite the bullet and fix this.

Changes:
* Terminate all namespaces with the correct closing comment.
* Make sure argument names in comments match the corresponding parameter name.
* Remove redundant get() calls on smart pointers.
* Prefer using "override" or "final" instead of "virtual". Remove "virtual" where appropriate.
This was already done for getSuccessorBlocks() to distinguish getting successor
blocks from getting the full list of SILSuccessors via getSuccessors(). This
commit just makes all of the successor/predecessor code follow that naming
convention.
Some examples:
getSingleSuccessor() => getSingleSuccessorBlock().
isSuccessor() => isSuccessorBlock().
getPreds() => getPredecessorBlocks().
Really, IMO, we should consider renaming SILSuccessor to a more verbose name so
that it is clear that it is more of an internal detail of SILBasicBlock's
implementation rather than something that one should consider as apart of one's
mental model of the IR when one really wants to be thinking about predecessor
and successor blocks. But that is not what this commit is trying to change, it
is just trying to eliminate a bit of technical debt by making the naming
conventions here consistent.
Before this commit all code relating to handling arguments in SILBasicBlock had
somewhere in the name BB. This is redundant given that the class's name is
already SILBasicBlock. This commit drops those names.
Some examples:
getBBArg() => getArgument()
BBArgList => ArgumentList
bbarg_begin() => args_begin()
As there are no instructions left which produce multiple result values, this is a NFC regarding the generated SIL and generated code.
Although this commit is large, most changes are straightforward adoptions to the changes in the ValueBase and SILValue classes.
(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.
