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 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.

Inference of type witnesses for associated types was previously
implemented as part of value witness matching in the constraint
solver. This led to a number of serious problems, including:
- Recursion problems with the solver hunting for a type witness,
which triggers more attemts to match value witnesses...
- Arbitrarily crummy attempts to break the recursion causing
type-check failures in fun places.
- Ordering dependencies abound: different results depending on which
value witnesses were satisfied first, failures because of the order
in which we attempted to infer type witnesses, etc.
This new implementation of type witness inference uses a separate pass
that occurs whenever we're looking for any type witness, and solves
all of the type witnesses within a given conformance
simultaneously. We still look at potential value witnesses to infer
type witnesses, but we match them structurally, without invoking the
constraint solver.
There are a few caveats to this implementation:
* We're not currently able to infer type witnesses from value
witnesses that are global operators, so some tricks involving global
operators (*cough* ~> *cough*) might require some manually-specified
type witnesses. Note that the standard library doesn't include any
such cases.
* Yes, it's another kind of solver. At simple one, fortunately.
On the other hand, this implementation should be a big step forward:
* It's far more predictable, order-invariant, and non-recursive.
* The diagnostics for failures to infer type witnesses have
improved.

Just a rough beginning but it passes type checking.
Also demonstrates simulated typealias in protocol extension hack (the
actual feature isn't yet supported).

...by removing the underscored protocols, thereby confirming Dmitri's
assertion that this technique is no longer needed, and we can clean some
of these protocols out of the standard library!
In the cases where they're used to get around the lack of recursive
protocol requirements, though, they must remain.

- Allow 'static' in protocol property and func requirements, but not 'class'.
- Allow 'static' methods in classes - they are 'class final'.
- Only allow 'class' methods in classes (or extensions of classes)
- Remove now unneeded diagnostics related to finding 'static' in previously banned places.
- Update relevant diagnostics to make the new rules clear.
