Previously some parts of the compiler referred to them as "fields",
and most referred to them as "elements". Use the more generic 'elements'
nomenclature because that's what we refer to other things in the compiler
(e.g. the elements of a bracestmt).
At the same time, make the API better by providing "getElement" consistently
and using it, instead of getElements()[i].
NFC.

This allows ErrorTypes referencing Cocoa NSErrors to be pattern-matched against our bridged enums, at least dynamically. (The compiler still doesn't understand these bridging conversions yet.)

'x is P' works now, and this function isn't used anywhere except by a test that exercises it. Removing this also lets us remove a swath of otherwise unused helper static functions in the runtime.

After some more discussion with John, we decided that subclassing is the only realistic option, at least until we eventually are able to integrate with the OS. Switch things around to allocate Swift error boxes as an ObjC subclass that contains the error value instead of trying to game it as a CFError.

Add a 'mayTakeValue' function, which returns true if we're allowed to take the value from an existential container (assuming we own the existential container value). This is true for class and opaque existential containers, but not for boxed existentials, where multiple owners may share references to the boxed value. Also add a 'deinitExistentialContainer' function to do any cleanup that must happen after the value has been consumed out of an existential container. Fix up an off-by-one indirection level in the SwiftError implementations of the existing existential container methods.

These should all apply to any Darwin platform, and the current behaviour
was breaking cross-compilation.
Introduces a SWIFT_DARWIN_VARIANTS pattern, to be used as follows:
if(SWIFT_HOST_VARIANT MATCHES "${SWIFT_DARWIN_VARIANTS}")
Also fix one place where I checked the CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME instead of the
host variant that I recently introduced. I haven't attempted to find
the rest of the places we're doing this though.

Teach ExistentialTypeMetadata how to project out the value pointer, type metadata, and protocol witness table from ErrorType containers. NFC yet; the dynamic casting and reflection machinery needs further work to correctly handle ErrorType boxes.
Swift SVN r26509
If an existential type for a special protocol (not a composition) is instantiated, carry the special protocol identifier from that protocol to the existential, allowing us to easily recognize existentials with unique runtime characteristics.

First, on x86-64 Linux does not reserve lower 2 Gb of the address space,
and a space saving trick in the runtime did not work properly, confusing
pointers and failure generation numbers together.
Second, we ignored protocol conformances inside the executable (only
considered shared libraries).

Runtime should use LINK_LIBRARIES to link to ICU, since it is a static
archive, and we need this link dependency to be propagated to the
libswiftSwiftCore library. I have no idea why it linked correctly
worked before.

The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
