This is required to correctly use the mock SDK when the SDK overlay is
built and tested separately. (Otherwise, the mock SDK might not get
used, because the overlay SDK options would expand from the
%-substitution, appear first on the command line, and shadow the mock
SDK in the search path).

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

These changes make the following improvements to how we generate diagnostics for expression typecheck failure:
- Customizing a diagnostic for a specific expression kind is as easy as adding a new method to the FailureDiagnosis class,
and does not require intimate knowledge of the constraint solver’s inner workings.
- As part of this patch, I’ve introduced specialized diagnostics for call, binop, unop, subscript, assignment and inout
expressions, but we can go pretty far with this.
- This also opens up the possibility to customize diagnostics not just for the expression kind, but for the specific types
involved as well.
- For the purpose of presenting accurate type info, partially-specialized subexpressions are individually re-typechecked
free of any contextual types. This allows us to:
- Properly surface subexpression errors.
- Almost completely avoid any type variables in our diagnostics. In cases where they could not be eliminated, we now
substitute in "_".
- More accurately indicate the sources of errors.
- We do a much better job of diagnosing disjunction failures. (So no more nonsensical ‘UInt8’ error messages.)
- We now present reasonable error messages for overload resolution failures, informing the user of partially-matching
parameter lists when possible.
At the very least, these changes address the following bugs:

Doing so is safe even though we have mock SDK. The include paths for
modules with the same name in the real and mock SDKs are different, and
the module files will be distinct (because they will have a different
hash).
This reduces test runtime on OS X by 30% and brings it under a minute on
a 16-core machine.
This also uncovered some problems with some tests -- even when run for
iOS configurations, some tests would still run with macosx triple. I
fixed the tests where I noticed this issue.

Start capitalizing on some of the new diagnostic machinery in a few different ways:
- When mining constraints for type information, utilize constraints "favored" by the overload resolution process.
- When printing type variables, if the variable was created by opening a literal expression, utilize the literal
default type or conformance if possible.
- Utilize syntactic information when crafting diagnostics:
- If the constraint miner can produce a better diagnostic than the recorded failure, diagnose via constraints.
- Factor in the expression kind when choosing which types to include in a diagnostic message.
- Start customizing diagnostics based on the amount of type data available.
What does all this mean?
- Fewer type variables leaking into diagnostic messages.
- Far better diagnostics for overload resolution failures. Specifically, we now print proper argument type data
for failed function calls.
- No more "'Foo' is not convertible to 'Foo'" error messages
- A greater emphasis on type data means less dependence on the ordering of failed constraints. This means fewer
inscrutable diagnostics complaining about 'UInt8' when all the constituent expressions are of type Float.
So we still have a ways to go, but these changes should greatly improve the number of head-scratchers served up
by the type checker.
These changes address the following radars:

Modify TypeBase::getRValueType to structurally convert lvalues embedded in tuple and paren types. Inside the constraint solver, coerce types to rvalues based on the structural 'isLValueType' test rather than shallow 'is<LValueType>' checking. Fixes <rdar://problem/17507421>, but exposes an issue with call argument matching and lvalues <rdar://problem/17786730>.
Swift SVN r20442
Add primitive type-checker rules for pointer arguments. An UnsafePointer argument accepts:
- an UnsafePointer value of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is UnsafePointer<Void>,
- an inout parameter of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is UnsafePointer<Void>, or
- an inout Array parameter of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is UnsafePointer<Void>.
A ConstUnsafePointer argument accepts:
- an UnsafePointer, ConstUnsafePointer, or AutoreleasingUnsafePointer value of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is ConstUnsafePointer<Void>,
- an inout parameter of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is ConstUnsafePointer<Void>, or
- an inout or non-inout Array parameter of matching element type, or of any type if the argument is ConstUnsafePointer<Void>.
An AutoreleasingUnsafePointer argument accepts:
- an AutoreleasingUnsafePointer value of matching element type, or
- an inout parameter of matching element type.
This disrupts some error messages in unrelated tests, which is tracked by <rdar://problem/17380520>.

There is no protection whatsoever if the Clang-to-Swift type
conversion produces something that Swift doesn't lower in an
ABI-compatible way. That will be dealt with later.
