Save two pointers of storage in IterableDeclContext (a base class of
nominal type and extension declarations) by storing the lazy member
loader + context data in an ASTContext side table. It also makes it
easier to add more lazy context information later on.
Only serialize the interface types of parameter declarations into the
module file, then lazily build the contextual types when
requested. This saves a small amount of space in the Swift module
files (~64k for the Swift standard library) and some effort on load.
First, ensure all ParamDecls that are synthesized from scratch are given
both a contextual type and an interface type.
For ParamDecls written in source, add a new recordParamType() method to
GenericTypeResolver. This calls setType() or setInterfaceType() as
appropriate.
Interestingly enough a handful of diagnostics in the test suite have
improved. I'm not sure why, but I'll take it.
The ParamDecl::createUnboundSelf() method is now only used in the parser,
and no longer sets the type of the self parameter to the unbound generic
type. This was wrong anyway, since the type was always being overwritten.
This allows us to remove DeclContext::getSelfTypeOfContext().
Also, ensure that FuncDecl::getBodyResultTypeLoc() always has an interface
type for synthesized declarations, eliminating a mapTypeOutOfContext()
call when computing the function interface type in configureInterfaceType().
Finally, clean up the logic for resolving the DynamicSelfType. We now
get the interface or contextual type of 'Self' via the resolver, instead
of always getting the contextual type and patching it up inside
configureInterfaceType().
After recent changes, this asserts on all decls that are not VarDecls,
so we can just enforce that statically now. Interestingly, this turns
up some dead code which would have asserted immediately if called.
Also, replace AnyFunctionRef::getType() with
AnyFunctionRef::getInterfaceType(), since the old
AnyFunctionRef::getType() would just assert when called on
a Decl.
The previous patches regressed a test where we used to diagnose
(poorly) a circular associated type, like so:
associatedtype e: e
With the error "inheritance from non-protocol, non-class type 'e'".
This error went away, because we end up not setting the interface
type of the associated type early enough. Instead, we return an
ErrorType from resolveTypeInContext() and diagnose nothing.
With this patch, emit a diagnostic at the point where the ErrorType
first appears.
Also, remove the isRecursive() bit from AssociatedTypeDecl, and
remove isBeingTypeChecked() which duplicates a bit with the same
name in Decl.
A pointless use of polymorphism -- the result values are not
interchangeable in any practical sense:
- For GenericTypeParamDecls, this returned getDeclaredInterfaceType(),
which is an interface type.
- For AssociatedTypeDecls, this returned the sugared AssociatedTypeType,
which desugars to an archetype.
- For TypeAliasDecls, this returned TypeAliasDecl::getAliasType(),
which desugars to a type containing archetypes.
- For NominalTypeDecls, this returned NominalTypeDecl::getDeclaredType(),
which is the unbound generic type, a special case used for inferring
generic arguments when they're not written in source.
Previously, getInterfaceType() would return getType() if no
interface type was set. Instead, always set an interface type
explicitly.
Eventually we want to remove getType() altogether, and this
brings us one step closer to this goal.
Note that ParamDecls are excempt from this treatment, because
they don't have a proper interface type yet. Cleaning this up
requires more effort.

1. Add new AccessScope type that just wraps a plain DeclContext.
2. Propagate it into all uses of "ValueDecl::getFormalAccessScope".
3. Turn all operations that combine access scopes into methods on AccessScope.
4. Add the "private" flag to distinguish "private" from "fileprivate"
scope for top-level DeclContext.
Quiz: What does @_transparent on an extension actually *do*?
1) Make all members @_transparent?
2) Allow your members to be @_transparent?
3) Some other magical effect that has nothing to do with members?
The correct answer is 1), however a few places in the stdlib defined
a @_transparent extension and then proceeded to make some or all members
also @_transparent, and in a couple of places we defined a @_transparent
extension with no members at all.
To avoid cargo culting and confusion, remove the ability to make
@_transparent extensions altogether, and force usages to be explicit.
