Throwing functions pass the error result in `swiftself` to the resume
partial function.
Therefore, `() async -> ()` to `() async throws -> ()` is not ABI compatible.
TODO: go through remaining failing IRGen async tests and replace the
illegal convert_functions.
Most of the async runtime functions have been changed to not
expect the task and executor to be passed in. When knowing the
task and executor is necessary, there are runtime functions
available to recover them.
The biggest change I had to make to a runtime function signature
was to swift_task_switch, which has been altered to expect to be
passed the context and resumption function instead of requiring
the caller to park the task. This has the pleasant consequence
of allowing the implementation to very quickly turn around when
it recognizes that the current executor is satisfactory. It does
mean that on arm64e we have to sign the continuation function
pointer as an argument and then potentially resign it when
assigning into the task's resume slot.

First, just call an async -> T function instead of forcing the caller
to piece together which case we're in and perform its own copy. This
ensures that the task is actually kept alive properly.
Second, now that we no longer implicitly depend on the waiting tasks
being run synchronously, go ahead and schedule them to run on the
global executor.
This solves some problems which were blocking the work on TLS-ifying
the task/executor state.
Previously, the error stored in the async context was of type SwiftError
*. In order to enable the context to be callee released, make it
indirect and change its type to SwiftError **.

Currently, the only thing in the system that donates a thread
to run it is swift_runAndBlockThread, but we'll probably need
others. Nothing in the concurrency runtime should block via a
semaphore in this configuration.
As an outrageous hack, work around the layering problems with
using libdispatch from the concurrency library on non-Darwin
systems by making those systems use the cooperative global
executor. This is only acceptable as a temporary solution
for landing this change and setting things onto the right
long-term design.
