Streamline internal String creation. Previously, everything funneled
into a single generic function, however, every single call of the
generic funnel had relevant specific information that could be used
for a more efficient algorithm.
In preparation for efficiently forming small strings, refactor this
logic into a handful of more specialized subroutines to preserve more
specific information from the callers.
Restore (un-revert) sting comparison, with fixes
More exhaustive testing of opaque strings, which consistently reproduces prior sporadic failure. Shims fixups. Some test tweaking.
* Make Range conditionally a Collection
* Convert ClosedRange to conditionally a collection
* De-gyb Range/ClosedRange, refactoring some methods.
* Remove use of Countable{Closed}Range from stdlib
* Remove Countable use from Foundation
* Fix test errors and warnings resulting from Range/CountableRange collapse
* fix prespecialize test for new mangling
* Update CoreAudio use of CountableRange
* Update SwiftSyntax use of CountableRange
* Restore ClosedRange.Index: Hashable conformance
* Move fixed typechecker slowness test for array-of-ranges from slow to fast, yay
* Apply Doug's patch to loosen test to just check for error
Include the initial implementation of _StringGuts, a 2-word
replacement for _LegacyStringCore. 64-bit Darwin supported, 32-bit and
Linux support in subsequent commits.
