includes a number of QoI things to help people write the correct code. I will commit
the testcase for it as the next patch.
The bulk of this patch is moving the stdlib, testsuite and validation testsuite to
the new syntax. I moved a few uses of "as" patterns back to as? expressions in the
stdlib as well.

The language has limitations that don't allow us to express the API we
actually want, and we have to resort to underscored protocols again.
<rdar://problem/20715009> Implement recursive protocol constraints
<rdar://problem/20477576> 'where' constraints on associated types in
protocols
Swift SVN r27820
The rule changes are as follows:
* All functions (introduced with the 'func' keyword) have argument
labels for arguments beyond the first, by default. Methods are no
longer special in this regard.
* The presence of a default argument no longer implies an argument
label.
The actual changes to the parser and printer are fairly simple; the
rest of the noise is updating the standard library, overlays, tests,
etc.
With the standard library, this change is intended to be API neutral:
I've added/removed #'s and _'s as appropriate to keep the user
interface the same. If we want to separately consider using argument
labels for more free functions now that the defaults in the language
have shifted, we can tackle that separately.
Fixes rdar://problem/17218256.

This commit adds a minimally working Slice type and minimal tests. Even
though it might seem logical how the new protocol requirements are
injected in the CollectionType hierarchy, it is very fragile and
required many attempts to get the typechecker to finally accept it.
Because I want to ensure that the type checker does not regress, I'm
commiting a patch that does not do much yet.

This change tries to recover the performance regression in map() that
was caused by moving map() to a protocol extension and degrading the
static type information (when mapping a collection, we only know that it
is a sequence). Adding map() to the witness table allows us to provide
a specialized implementation for collections, and hopefully recover the
lost performance.
This is a speculative change, I don't have performance numbers. I will
watch the performance buildbots and if this change does not help, I'll
revert.

This doesn't actually break the circular type-checking issues with
have with associated type inference, but it makes them less
painful. Fixes rdar://problem/20549165.
While here, and as a test, remove the _prext_underestimateCount
workound from the library. _CollectionDefaultsType now refines
_SequenceDefaultsType.

This changes 'if let' conditions to take general refutable patterns, instead of
taking a irrefutable pattern and implicitly matching against an optional.
Where before you might have written:
if let x = foo() {
you now need to write:
if let x? = foo() {
The upshot of this is that you can write anything in an 'if let' that you can
write in a 'case let' in a switch statement, which is pretty general.
To aid with migration, this special cases certain really common patterns like
the above (and any other irrefutable cases, like "if let (a,b) = foo()", and
tells you where to insert the ?. It also special cases type annotations like
"if let x : AnyObject = " since they are no longer allowed.
For transitional purposes, I have intentionally downgraded the most common
diagnostic into a warning instead of an error. This means that you'll get:
t.swift:26:10: warning: condition requires a refutable pattern match; did you mean to match an optional?
if let a = f() {
^
?
I think this is important to stage in, because this is a pretty significant
source breaking change and not everyone internally may want to deal with it
at the same time. I filed 20166013 to remember to upgrade this to an error.
In addition to being a nice user feature, this is a nice cleanup of the guts
of the compiler, since it eliminates the "isConditional()" bit from
PatternBindingDecl, along with the special case logic in the compiler to handle
it (which variously added and removed Optional around these things).

The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
