In order to allow this, I've had to rework the syntax of substituted function types; what was previously spelled `<T> in () -> T for <X>` is now spelled `@substituted <T> () -> T for <X>`. I think this is a nice improvement for readability, but it did require me to churn a lot of test cases.
Distinguishing the substitutions has two chief advantages over the existing representation. First, the semantics seem quite a bit clearer at use points; the `implicit` bit was very subtle and not always obvious how to use. More importantly, it allows the expression of generic function types that must satisfy a particular generic abstraction pattern, which was otherwise impossible to express.
As an example of the latter, consider the following protocol conformance:
```
protocol P { func foo() }
struct A<T> : P { func foo() {} }
```
The lowered signature of `P.foo` is `<Self: P> (@in_guaranteed Self) -> ()`. Without this change, the lowered signature of `A.foo`'s witness would be `<T> (@in_guaranteed A<T>) -> ()`, which does not preserve information about the conformance substitution in any useful way. With this change, the lowered signature of this witness could be `<T> @substituted <Self: P> (@in_guaranteed Self) -> () for <A<T>>`, which nicely preserves the exact substitutions which relate the witness to the requirement.
When we adopt this, it will both obviate the need for the special witness-table conformance field in SILFunctionType and make it far simpler for the SILOptimizer to devirtualize witness methods. This patch does not actually take that step, however; it merely makes it possible to do so.
As another piece of unfinished business, while `SILFunctionType::substGenericArgs()` conceptually ought to simply set the given substitutions as the invocation substitutions, that would disturb a number of places that expect that method to produce an unsubstituted type. This patch only set invocation arguments when the generic type is a substituted type, which we currently never produce in type-lowering.
My plan is to start by producing substituted function types for accessors. Accessors are an important case because the coroutine continuation function is essentially an implicit component of the function type which the current substitution rules simply erase the intended abstraction of. They're also used in narrower ways that should exercise less of the optimizer.
This was partially implemented but the check looked at the lowered
types and not the AST types, and DynamicSelfType is erased at the
top level of a lowered type.
Also use the new mangling for reabstraction thunks with self, to
ensure we don't emit the same symbol with two different lowered
types.

In a previous commit, I banned in the verifier any SILValue from producing
ValueOwnershipKind::Any in preparation for this.
This change arises out of discussions in between John, Andy, and I around
ValueOwnershipKind::Trivial. The specific realization was that this ownership
kind was an unnecessary conflation of the a type system idea (triviality) with
an ownership idea (@any, an ownership kind that is compatible with any other
ownership kind at value merge points and can only create). This caused the
ownership model to have to contort to handle the non-payloaded or trivial cases
of non-trivial enums. This is unnecessary if we just eliminate the any case and
in the verifier separately verify that trivial => @any (notice that we do not
verify that @any => trivial).
NOTE: This is technically an NFC intended change since I am just replacing
Trivial with Any. That is why if you look at the tests you will see that I
actually did not need to update anything except removing some @trivial ownership
since @any ownership is represented without writing @any in the parsed sil.

The constraint solver support for the Swift 3 function type behavior
has been removed, so it's no longer possible to pun the same value as
both a function taking multiple parameters and a function taking a
single tuple argument.
This means the entire parameter list is no longer a target for
substitution as a single value, so the most general form of a function
value passes each parameter indirectly instead of passing a single
tuple parameter indirectly.
The SILGen testsuite consists of valid Swift code covering most language
features. We use these tests to verify that no unknown nodes are in the
file's libSyntax tree. That way we will (hopefully) catch any future
changes or additions to the language which are not implemented in
libSyntax.
I am going to leave in the infrastructure around this just in case. But there is
no reason to keep this in the tests themselves. I can always just revert this
and I don't think merge conflicts are likely due to previous work I did around
the tooling for this.
Otherwise, the plus_zero_* tests will have plus_zero_* as a module name, causing
massive FileCheck problems.
The reason why I am doing it with the main tests is so that I can use it when
syncing branches/etc.

conversions that reverse an implicit conversion done to align
foreign declarations with their imported types.
For example, consider an Objective-C method that returns an NSString*:
- (nonnull NSString*) foo;
This will be imported into Swift as a method returning a String:
func foo() -> String
A call to this method will implicitly convert the result to String
behind the scenes. If the user then casts the result back to NSString*,
that would normally be compiled as an additional conversion. The
compiler cannot simply eliminate the conversion because that is not
necessarily semantically equivalent.
This peephole recognizes as-casts that immediately reverse a bridging
conversion as a special case and gives them special power to eliminate
both conversions. For example, 'foo() as NSString' will simply return
the original return value. In addition to call results, this also
applies to call arguments, property accesses, and subscript accesses.
Officially kick SILBoxType over to be "nominal" in its layout, with generic layouts structurally parameterized only by formal types. Change SIL to lower a capture to a nongeneric box when possible, or a box capturing the enclosing generic context when necessary.
Use a syntax that declares the layout's generic parameters and fields,
followed by the generic arguments to apply to the layout:
{ var Int, let String } // A concrete box layout with a mutable Int
// and immutable String field
<T, U> { var T, let U } <Int, String> // A generic box layout,
// applied to Int and String
// arguments
Keep in mind that these are approximations that will not impact correctness
since in all cases I ensured that the SIL will be the same after the
OwnershipModelEliminator has run. The cases that I was unsure of I commented
with SEMANTIC ARC TODO. Once we have the verifier any confusion that may have
occurred here will be dealt with.

Recently I changed the ArchetypeBuilder is minimize requirements
in generic signatures. However substitution lists still contained
all recursively-expanded nested types.
With recursive conformances, this list becomes potentially
infinite, so we can't expand it out anymore. Also, it is just
a waste of time to have them there.
This ensures that ownership is properly propagated forward through the use-def
graph.
This was the work that was stymied by issues relating to SILBuilder performing
local ARC dataflow. I ripped out that local dataflow in 6f4e2ab and added a
cheap ARC guaranteed dataflow pass that performs the same optimization.
Also in the process of doing this work, I found that there were many SILGen
tests that were either pattern matching in the wrong functions or had wrong
CHECK lines (for instance CHECK_NEXT). I fixed all of these issues and also
expanded many of the tests so that they verify ownership. The only work I left
for a future PR is that there are certain places in tests where we are using the
projection from an original value, instead of a copy. I marked those with a
message SEMANTIC ARC TODO so that they are easy to find.

SILGen has no reason to insert shadow copies for inout parameters any more. They cannot be captured. We still emit these copies. Sometimes deshadowing removes them, but sometimes it does not.
In this PR we just avoid emitting the copies and remove the deshadowing pass.
This PR chery-picked some of @dduan work and built on top of it.
The commit was reverted because of a regression in the
Prototypes/CollectionTransformers test. I believe the root
cause was an escape analysis bug, which is fixed in my
previous commit.
If the thunk's type otherwise did not involve type parameters, we
would still pass around the generic parameters from the caller's
context, which is wasteful.
This flips the switch to have @noescape be the default semantics for
function types in argument positions, for everything except property
setters. Property setters are naturally escaping, so they keep their
escaping-by-default behavior.
Adds contentual printing, and updates the test cases.
There is some further (non-source-breaking) work to be done for
SE-0103:
- We need the withoutActuallyEscaping function
- Improve diagnostics and QoI to at least @noescape's standards
- Deprecate / drop @noescape, right now we allow it
- Update internal code completion printing to be contextual
- Add more tests to explore tricky corner cases
- Small regressions in fixits in attr/attr_availability.swift
Similarly to how we've always handled parameter types, we
now recursively expand tuples in result types and separately
determine a result convention for each result.
The most important code-generation change here is that
indirect results are now returned separately from each
other and from any direct results. It is generally far
better, when receiving an indirect result, to receive it
as an independent result; the caller is much more likely
to be able to directly receive the result in the address
they want to initialize, rather than having to receive it
in temporary memory and then copy parts of it into the
target.
The most important conceptual change here that clients and
producers of SIL must be aware of is the new distinction
between a SILFunctionType's *parameters* and its *argument
list*. The former is just the formal parameters, derived
purely from the parameter types of the original function;
indirect results are no longer in this list. The latter
includes the indirect result arguments; as always, all
the indirect results strictly precede the parameters.
Apply instructions and entry block arguments follow the
argument list, not the parameter list.
A relatively minor change is that there can now be multiple
direct results, each with its own result convention.
This is a minor change because I've chosen to leave
return instructions as taking a single operand and
apply instructions as producing a single result; when
the type describes multiple results, they are implicitly
bound up in a tuple. It might make sense to split these
up and allow e.g. return instructions to take a list
of operands; however, it's not clear what to do on the
caller side, and this would be a major change that can
be separated out from this already over-large patch.
Unsurprisingly, the most invasive changes here are in
SILGen; this requires substantial reworking of both call
emission and reabstraction. It also proved important
to switch several SILGen operations over to work with
RValue instead of ManagedValue, since otherwise they
would be forced to spuriously "implode" buffers.
And use project_box to get to the address value.
SILGen now generates a project_box for each alloc_box.
And IRGen re-uses the address value from the alloc_box if the operand of project_box is an alloc_box.
This lets the generated code be the same as before.
Other than that most changes of this (quite large) commit are straightforward.
