While we expect our users to use type aliases for template
instantiations, there are some contexts when we import instantiations
without aliases. Unfortunately, in case of C++ span we generated a name
for the instantiation that cannot be a syntactically valid Swift type
due to unary negation appearing in the type name. This PR replaces the
unary negation with "Neg" in the type name and also fixed a bug that
ended up printing certain unsigned values as signed. Moreover, this PR
also fixes some other fallouts in the SwiftifyImport macro.

__counted_by return values with .lifetimeDependence are now mapped to
Span instead of UnsafeBufferPointer. Also fixes bug where std::span
return values would map to Span even if lifetime dependence info was
missing.
importBoundsAttributes and importSpanAttributes are merged into a single
function named swiftify. This allows us to not have to duplicate the
effort of attaching _SwiftifyImport macros, but is also necessary to
allow importing a function with both __counted_by and std::span types.
Unfortunately, this was not discovered earlier as swift-ide-test is not
invoking the SIL passes that produce this diagnostic. When creating
Swift spans from C++ spans we have no lifetime dependency information to
propagate as C++ spans are modeled as escapable types. Hence, this PR
introduces a helper function to bypass the lifetime checks triggered by
this discepancy. Hopefully, the new utility will go away as the lifetime
analysis matures on the Swift side and we get standardized way to deal
with unsafe lifetimes.
We do not need to borrow from view objects passed by value but we need
to borrow from owners taken by const reference regardless of whether it
was annotated using lifetimebound or lifetime_capture_by.
Support adding safe wrappers for APIs returning std::span depending on
the this object. This also fixes an issue for APIs with 0 parameters.

A previous PR already added support to the SwiftifyImport macro to
generate safe wrappers. This PR makes ClangImporter emit the macro to do
the transformation.
A first step towards creating safe overloads for C++ APIs using span
(rdar://139074571).
Note that we need to mark span as owned because it the libc++
implementation was mistakenly recognized as owned and might now rely on
span methods like `data` being renamed as `__dataUnsafe`. We will change
it under a new interop version. But for the time being, we want
consistent behavior across stdlib versions.
