Swift admits implicit conversions between tuple types to
introduce and eliminate argument labels, and re-order
argument labels. These are expressed as TupleShuffleExpr
in the AST.
SILGen has two different code paths for lowering TupleShuffleExpr,
which is also used for varargs and default arguments in call
argument emission.
These two code paths support different subsets of TupleShuffleExpr;
neither one supports the full generality of the other, but there
is some overlap.
Work around the damage by routing the two different "kinds" of
TupleShuffleExprs to the correct place in argument emission.
The next incremental step here would be to refactor ArgEmitter to
make it usable when lowering SubscriptExpr; then the RValueEmitter's
support for varargs in TupleShuffleExpr can go away. Once that's
done we can split off an ArgumentExpr from TupleShuffleExpr, and
in the fullness of time, fold ArgumentExpr into ApplyExpr.
At that point this dark corner of the AST will start to be sane...
Fixes <https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-2887>.
'Ss' appears in manglings tens of thousands of times in the standard library and is also incredibly frequent in other modules. This alone is enough to shrink the standard library by 59KB.

Requiring a variadic parameter to come at the end of the parameter
list is an old restriction that makes no sense nowadays, and which we
had all thought we had already lifted. It made variadic parameters
unusable with trailing closures or defaulted arguments, and made our
new print() design unimplementable.
Remove this restriction, replacing it with a less onerous and slightly
less silly restriction that we not have more than one variadic
parameter in a given parameter clause. Fixes rdar://problem/20127197.

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.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

This avoids a pointless copy every time an array literal is written, and will let us retire the horrible "alloc_array" instruction and globs of broken IRGen code. Implements rdar://problem/16386862, and probably fixes a bunch of bugs related to alloc_array brokenness.

Now the SILLinkage for functions and global variables is according to the swift visibility (private, internal or public).
In addition, the fact whether a function or global variable is considered as fragile, is kept in a separate flag at SIL level.
Previously the linkage was used for this (e.g. no inlining of less visible functions to more visible functions). But it had no effect,
because everything was public anyway.
For now this isFragile-flag is set for public transparent functions and for everything if a module is compiled with -sil-serialize-all,
i.e. for the stdlib.
For details see <rdar://problem/18201785> Set SILLinkage correctly and better handling of fragile functions.
The benefits of this change are:
*) Enable to eliminate unused private and internal functions
*) It should be possible now to use private in the stdlib
*) The symbol linkage is as one would expect (previously almost all symbols were public).
More details:
Specializations from fragile functions (e.g. from the stdlib) now get linkonce_odr,default
linkage instead of linkonce_odr,hidden, i.e. they have public visibility.
The reason is: if such a function is called from another fragile function (in the same module),
then it has to be visible from a third module, in case the fragile caller is inlined but not
the specialized function.
I had to update lots of test files, because many CHECK-LABEL lines include the linkage, which has changed.
The -sil-serialize-all option is now handled at SILGen and not at the Serializer.
This means that test files in sil format which are compiled with -sil-serialize-all
must have the [fragile] attribute set for all functions and globals.
The -disable-access-control option doesn't help anymore if the accessed module is not compiled
with -sil-serialize-all, because the linker will complain about unresolved symbols.
A final note: I tried to consider all the implications of this change, but it's not a low-risk change.
If you have any comments, please let me know.
