Support for @noescape SILFunctionTypes.
These are the underlying SIL changes necessary to implement the new
closure capture ABI.
Note: This includes a change to function name mangling that
primarily affects reabstraction thunks.
The new ABI will allow stack allocation of non-escaping closures as a
simple optimization.
The new ABI, and the stack allocation optimization, also require
closure context to be @guaranteed. That will be implemented as the
next step.
Many SIL passes pattern match partial_apply sequences. These all
needed to be fixed to handle the convert_function that SILGen now
emits. The conversion is now needed whenever a function declaration,
which has an escaping type, is passed into a @NoEscape argument.
In addition to supporting new SIL patterns, some optimizations like
inlining and SIL combine are now stronger which could perturb some
benchmark results.
These underlying SIL changes should be merged now to avoid conflicting
with other work. Minor benchmark discrepancies can be investigated as part of
the stack-allocation work.
* Add a noescape attribute to SILFunctionType.
And set this attribute correctly when lowering formal function types to SILFunctionTypes based on @escaping.
This will allow stack allocation of closures, and unblock a related ABI change.
* Flip the polarity on @noescape on SILFunctionType and clarify that
we don't default it.
* Emit withoutActuallyEscaping using a convert_function instruction.
It might be better to use a specialized instruction here, but I'll leave that up to Andy.
Andy: And I'll leave that to Arnold who is implementing SIL support for guaranteed ownership of thick function types.
* Fix SILGen and SIL Parsing.
* Fix the LoadableByAddress pass.
* Fix ClosureSpecializer.
* Fix performance inliner constant propagation.
* Fix the PartialApplyCombiner.
* Adjust SILFunctionType for thunks.
* Add mangling for @noescape/@escaping.
* Fix test cases for @noescape attribute, mangling, convert_function, etc.
* Fix exclusivity test cases.
* Fix AccessEnforcement.
* Fix SILCombine of convert_function -> apply.
* Fix ObjC bridging thunks.
* Various MandatoryInlining fixes.
* Fix SILCombine optimizeApplyOfConvertFunction.
* Fix more test cases after merging (again).
* Fix ClosureSpecializer. Hande convert_function cloning.
Be conservative when combining convert_function. Most of our code doesn't know
how to deal with function type mismatches yet.
* Fix MandatoryInlining.
Be conservative with function conversion. The inliner does not yet know how to
cast arguments or convert between throwing forms.
* Fix PartialApplyCombiner.
This generalizes a hack where re-abstraction thunks become fragile on contact
with fragile functions.
The old policy was:
- [fragile] functions always serialized
- [reabstraction_thunk] transitively referenced from fragile always serialized
The new policy is:
- [serialized] functions always serialized
- [serializable] functions transitively referenced from serialized functions
are always serialized
- Most kinds of thunks can now be [serializable], allowing them to be shared
between serialized and non-serialized code without any issues, as long as the
body of the thunk is sufficiently "simple" (doesn't reference private
symbols or performs direct access to resilient types)
Textual SIL was sometimes ambiguous when SILDeclRefs were used, because the textual representation of SILDeclRefs was the same for functions that have the same name, but different signatures.

Suppose we have a protocol requirement returning Self:
protocol Clonable {
func clone() -> Self
}
If we have a value 'x' of existential type 'Clonable',
the partial application 'x.clone' has formal type
'() -> Clonable'. However the actual type of the
method substitutes in an "opened" existential type
for 'Self'.
In order to implement the partial application we must
wrap the method in a thunk which 'erases' the opened
existential, so the thunk has type
<T : Clonable> (() -> T) -> () -> Clonable
The thunk is called with a substitution replacing 'T'
with the opened existential type.
