bc83940301 Make pointer nullability explicit using Optional.
Implements SE-0055: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0055-optional-unsafe-pointers.md

- Add NULL as an extra inhabitant of Builtin.RawPointer (currently
  hardcoded to 0 rather than being target-dependent).
- Import non-object pointers as Optional/IUO when nullable/null_unspecified
  (like everything else).
- Change the type checker's *-to-pointer conversions to handle a layer of
  optional.
- Use 'AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSError?>?' as the type of error
  parameters exported to Objective-C.
- Drop NilLiteralConvertible conformance for all pointer types.
- Update the standard library and then all the tests.

I've decided to leave this commit only updating existing tests; any new
tests will come in the following commits. (That may mean some additional
implementation work to follow.)

The other major piece that's missing here is migration. I'm hoping we get
a lot of that with Swift 1.1's work for optional object references, but
I still need to investigate.

6dd1f0a5f9 [stdlib] Apply @_fixed_layout to various stdlib and overlay types
This is a staging attribute that will eventually mean "fixed-contents"
for structs and "closed" for enums, as described in
docs/LibraryEvolution.rst.

This is pretty much the minimal set of types that must be fixed-layout,
because SILGen makes assumptions about their lowering.

If desired, some SILGen refactoring can allow some of these to be
resilient. For example, bridging value types could be made to work
with resilient types.
