SE-0072 took implicit bridging conversions away, which regressed the ability to express NSDictionaries as dictionary literals and index them using literal keys. Address this by changing the signature of init(dictionaryLiteral:) to use Hashable and Any, and by replacing the subscript from Objective-C with one using _Hashable that does the bridging on the user's behalf. This largely restores the QoI of working with NS collections.
One last bit of SE-0072. We shouldn't fall back to bridged classes in the absence of type context for literals anymore. By itself, this kind of hoses the use of literals with NS types, but I think we can get most of the QoI back with overlay changes I plan to propose following this.
This is a squash of the following commits:
* [SE-0054] Import function pointer arg, return types, typedefs as optional
IUOs are only allowed on function decl arguments and return types, so
don't import typedefs or function pointer args or return types as IUO.
* [SE-0054] Only allow IUOs in function arg and result type.
When validating a TypeRepr, raise a diagnostic if an IUO is found
anywhere other thn the top level or as a function parameter or return
tpye.
* [SE-0054] Disable inference of IUOs by default
When considering a constraint of the form '$T1 is convertible to T!',
generate potential bindings 'T' and 'T?' for $T1, but not 'T!'. This
prevents variables without explicit type information from ending up with
IUO type. It also prevents implicit instantiation of functions and types
with IUO type arguments.
* [SE-0054] Remove the -disable-infer-iuos flag.
* Add nonnull annotations to ObjectiveCTests.h in benchmark suite.
Fixes rdar://problem/14776565 (AnyObject lookup for Objective-C
properties with custom getters) and rdar://problem/17184411 (allowing
__attribute__((swift_name("foo"))) to work on anything).
This requires a bit of special handling because we override the getter's type
in the importer, to make sure it's compatible with the setter, but other than
that we just use the information from the apinotes file.

This allows "obj.description!" to work on iOS when 'obj' is an AnyObject,
even though 'description' is an implicit property created by the importer.

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.
Swift SVN r18001
The name used for name lookup of subscript operators is "__subscript",
but when looking into an Objective-C module we instead need to look
for methods with the subscripting selectors, e.g.,
objectAtIndexedSubscript:/objectForKeyedSubscript:. Do so, and make
sure that deserializing the method first still creates the subscript
declaration.
Fixes the majority of <rdar://problem/14656624>. We can subscript 'id' now.
