For any operation that can throw an error, such as calls, property
accesses, and non-exhaustive do..catch statements, record the thrown
error type along with the conversion from that thrown error to the
error type expected in context, as appropriate. This will prevent
later stages from having to re-compute the conversion sequences.
Parse typed throw specifiers as `throws(X)` in every place where there
are effects specified, and record the resulting thrown error type in
the AST except the type system. This includes:
* `FunctionTypeRepr`, for the parsed representation of types
* `AbstractFunctionDecl`, for various function-like declarations
* `ClosureExpr`, for closures
* `ArrowExpr`, for parsing of types within expression context
This also introduces some serialization logic for the thrown error
type of function-like declarations, along with an API to extract the
thrown interface type from one of those declarations, although right
now it will either be `Error` or empty.
This is a futile attempt to discourage future use of getType() by
giving it a "scary" name.
We want people to use getInterfaceType() like with the other decl kinds.
I discovered this when experimenting with `std::map::iterator`, which has a const overload of `operator*` that returns a non-const reference, and does not have a const overload of `operator*`.

C++ `T& operator*()` is mapped to a Swift computed property `var pointee: T`.
Previously `var pointee` only had a getter, after this change it will also have a setter if the C++ type declares an overload of `operator*` that returns a mutable reference.

When importing a C header in the C++ language mode, Clang/Swift treat C structs as C++ structs.
Currently Swift synthesizes a default initializer that zero-initializes the backing memory of the struct for C structs, but not for C++ structs.
This is causing issues in existing projects that use C libraries and rely on having the default initializer available in Swift. This change enables the synthesis of a default initializer for C++ structs. Since many C++ structs are not designed to be initialized this way, the initializer is marked as deprecated in Swift.

I was hoping this would be enough to avoid the
crash in rdar://82820628, as we shouldn't emit
coverage mappings for synthesized Clang decls,
but it seems it can still cause Clang to crash
(rdar://100172217). Regardless, it seems like
these should be implicit anyway, so mark them as
such.
Prefix operators in Swift need to be marked as `prefix func`.
For example, the lack of `prefix` attribute prevents the user from conforming a C++ type that defines `operator!` to a Swift protocol that requires `static prefix func !(obj: Self) -> Self`.
C++ pre-increment operator `T& T::operator++()` is mapped into a non-mutating function `successor() -> Self`.
The naming matches existing functions for `UnsafePointer`/`UnsafeMutablePointer`.
The purpose of this is to be used for iterator bridging: C++ requires iterators to define a pre-increment operator (https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/named_req/Iterator), which Swift will use to iterate over C++ sequences and collections.
`ImportDecl.cpp` contained 10k+ lines of code, which caused slowdowns in incremental compilation and while editing the code in the IDE.
This change extracts a chunk of largely self-contained decl synthesis logic into a separate file.
