of associated types in protocol witness tables.
We use the global access functions when the result isn't
dependent, and a simple accessor when the result can be cheaply
recovered from the conforming metadata. Otherwise, we add a
cache slot to a private section of the witness table, forcing
an instantiation per conformance. Like generic type metadata,
concrete instantiations of generic conformances are memoized.
There's a fair amount of code in this patch that can't be
dynamically tested at the moment because of the widespread
reliance on recursive expansion of archetypes / dependent
types. That's something we're now theoretically in a position
to change, and as we do so, we'll test more of this code.
This speculatively re-applies 7576a91009,
i.e. reverts commit 11ab3d537f.
We have not been able to duplicate the build failure in
independent testing; it might have been spurious or unrelated.

This reverts commit 6528ec2887, i.e.
it reapplies b1e3120a28, with a fix
to unbreak release builds.
This reverts commit b1e3120a28.
Reverting because this patch uses WitnessTableBuilder::PI in NDEBUG code.
That field only exists when NDEBUG is not defined, but now NextCacheIndex, a
field that exists regardless, is being updated based on information from PI.
This problem means that Release builds do not work.
