The main thing that this patch does is work around a shortcoming of
SILGenApply namely that we in certain cases emit self before we know
what the callee is. We work around this by emitting self at +0 assuming
that the callee does pass self at +0 and set a flag. After we know what
the callee is, if the flag is set, we emit an extra retain for self.

The only caveat is that:
1. We do not properly recognize when we have a let binding and we
perform a guaranteed dynamic call. In such a case, we add an extra
retain, release pair around the call. In order to get that case I will
need to refactor some code in Callee. I want to make this change, but
not at the expense of getting the rest of this work in.
2. Some of the protocol witness thunks generated have unnecessary
retains or releases in a similar manner.
But this is a good first step.
I am going to send a large follow up email with all of the relevant results, so
I can let the bots chew on this a little bit.

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.
Swift SVN r24504
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.

Now the SILLinkage for functions and global variables is according to the swift visibility (private, internal or public).
In addition, the fact whether a function or global variable is considered as fragile, is kept in a separate flag at SIL level.
Previously the linkage was used for this (e.g. no inlining of less visible functions to more visible functions). But it had no effect,
because everything was public anyway.
For now this isFragile-flag is set for public transparent functions and for everything if a module is compiled with -sil-serialize-all,
i.e. for the stdlib.
For details see <rdar://problem/18201785> Set SILLinkage correctly and better handling of fragile functions.
The benefits of this change are:
*) Enable to eliminate unused private and internal functions
*) It should be possible now to use private in the stdlib
*) The symbol linkage is as one would expect (previously almost all symbols were public).
More details:
Specializations from fragile functions (e.g. from the stdlib) now get linkonce_odr,default
linkage instead of linkonce_odr,hidden, i.e. they have public visibility.
The reason is: if such a function is called from another fragile function (in the same module),
then it has to be visible from a third module, in case the fragile caller is inlined but not
the specialized function.
I had to update lots of test files, because many CHECK-LABEL lines include the linkage, which has changed.
The -sil-serialize-all option is now handled at SILGen and not at the Serializer.
This means that test files in sil format which are compiled with -sil-serialize-all
must have the [fragile] attribute set for all functions and globals.
The -disable-access-control option doesn't help anymore if the accessed module is not compiled
with -sil-serialize-all, because the linker will complain about unresolved symbols.
A final note: I tried to consider all the implications of this change, but it's not a low-risk change.
If you have any comments, please let me know.

- Split getSelfTypeForDynamicLookup into two pieces, and generalize it
to work on non-loadable protocols.
- Change dynamic_method_branch to take its argument as a protocol of any
protocol type, instead of as something of UnownObject type.
- Teach emitForcedDynamicMemberRef to only do its peephole optimization for
@objc cases, since it is special behavior of objc_msgSend.
- enhance emitDynamicPartialApply & emitDynamicMemberRefExpr to emit the
proper project_existential instruction (not a _ref) when dealing with a
non-classbound protocol.
Change the verifier to allow DynamicMethodBranchInst to work on non-@objc
protocol members.
This eliminates a bunch of pointless unchecked_ref_cast's in the generated
SIL for existing code, but this got squashed at IRGen time anyway, so no
real change for anything that sema permits.
Swift SVN r21519
Make ObjC method partial applications go through a native-to-foreign thunk so that we properly handle bridging conversions in the resulting function value. Partial applications through dynamic lookup are still broken because they apparently go through a different path.
