Identify gerunds by stripping off the "ing" and looking for a
verb. This lets us transform, e.g., "stringByAppendingString" to
"stringByAppending", since "append" is a verb.

The presence of a verb or preposition prior to the redundant part
provides a firm linguistic split that lets the actual argument fill in
for the reader. For other parts of speech (adjectives, especially)
it's awkward to transition from "reading part of the name" to "reading
the argument". This eliminates a significant number of bad omissions,
e.g., "setTextColor()" -> "setText()", and generally makes the
transformation more conservative.

Sink the actual logic for omitting needless words way down into
Basic, so we can re-use it elsewhere. Tie the Clang importer into that
logic, mapping Clang types down to strings appropriately. NFC

When importing an Objective-C init method or factory method into an
initializer, if the first camelCase word of the first argument name
starts with "with", drop the "with". This means that
-initWithRed:green:blue:alpha:
will get imported into Swift as
init(red:green:blue:alpha:)
as will
+colorWithRed:green:blue:alpha:
This is <rdar://problem/16795899>, hidden behind the
-implicit-objc-with flag.

This makes a number of changes to the selector-splitting
heuristics. Specifically:
- Eliminate last-word splitting, and with it the notion of
multi-words. We only split at prepositions now.
- Introduce the notion of "linking verbs" such as "will" or
"should"; when these show up, we refuse to split a selector, which
helps with delegates.
- Eliminate the special case for "get" and "set". It wasn't
helping.
