This patch adds powerpc64le Linux support. While the patch also adds
the matching powerpc64 bits, there are endian issues that need to be
sorted out.
The PowerPC LLVM changes for the swift ABI (eg returning three element
non-homogeneous aggregates) are still in the works, but a simple LLVM
fix to allow those aggregates results in swift passing all but 8
test cases.
An optimization should be added in order for the new one to be
efficient, i.e. if the `count` value is equal to `1`, the underlying
`Builtin.destroy` should be called, instead of
`Builtin.destroyArray`.
- Remove free Swift functions for advance and distance and replace
them with protocol extension methods:
- advancedBy(n)
- advancedBy(n, limit:)
- distanceTo(end)
- Modernize the Index tests
- Use StdlibUnittest
- Test for custom implementation dispatch
Perf impact: No significant changes reported in the
Swift Performance Measurement Tool.

(or in 'randomShuffle')
This violates our inout aliasing rules, and can cause a crash in certain
situations.
To try to prevent this in the future I've added a debugPrecondition check
to 'swap' that checks addresses. This will only catch inout violations
where neither argument uses writeback, and might some day be optimized
away. Right now, though, it does seem to catch some simple violations
(though not the one in the Radar), so hopefully it will at least help keep
us from introducing new problems.

...replacing it with the new, after passing API review!
* The lazy free function has become a property.
* Before we could extend protocols, we lacked a means for value types to
share implementations, and each new lazy algorithm had to be added to
each of up to four types: LazySequence, LazyForwardCollection,
LazyBidirectionalCollection, and LazyRandomAccessCollection. These
generic adapters hid the usual algorithms by defining their own
versions that returned new lazy generic adapters. Now users can extend
just one of two protocols to do the same thing: LazySequenceType or
LazyCollectionType.
* To avoid making the code duplication worse than it already was, the
generic adapters mentioned above were used to add the lazy generic
algorithms around simpler adapters such as MapSequence that just
provided the basic requirements of SequenceType by applying a
transformation to some base sequence, resulting in deeply nested
generic types as shown here. Now, MapSequence is an instance of
LazySequenceType (and is renamed LazyMapSequence), and thus transmits
laziness to its algorithms automatically.
* Documentation comments have been rewritten.
* The .array property was retired
* various renamings
* A bunch of Gyb files were retired.

includes a number of QoI things to help people write the correct code. I will commit
the testcase for it as the next patch.
The bulk of this patch is moving the stdlib, testsuite and validation testsuite to
the new syntax. I moved a few uses of "as" patterns back to as? expressions in the
stdlib as well.

The rule changes are as follows:
* All functions (introduced with the 'func' keyword) have argument
labels for arguments beyond the first, by default. Methods are no
longer special in this regard.
* The presence of a default argument no longer implies an argument
label.
The actual changes to the parser and printer are fairly simple; the
rest of the noise is updating the standard library, overlays, tests,
etc.
With the standard library, this change is intended to be API neutral:
I've added/removed #'s and _'s as appropriate to keep the user
interface the same. If we want to separately consider using argument
labels for more free functions now that the defaults in the language
have shifted, we can tackle that separately.
