This generalizes a hack where re-abstraction thunks become fragile on contact
with fragile functions.
The old policy was:
- [fragile] functions always serialized
- [reabstraction_thunk] transitively referenced from fragile always serialized
The new policy is:
- [serialized] functions always serialized
- [serializable] functions transitively referenced from serialized functions
are always serialized
- Most kinds of thunks can now be [serializable], allowing them to be shared
between serialized and non-serialized code without any issues, as long as the
body of the thunk is sufficiently "simple" (doesn't reference private
symbols or performs direct access to resilient types)
Textual SIL was sometimes ambiguous when SILDeclRefs were used, because the textual representation of SILDeclRefs was the same for functions that have the same name, but different signatures.

Suppose we have a protocol requirement returning Self:
protocol Clonable {
func clone() -> Self
}
If we have a value 'x' of existential type 'Clonable',
the partial application 'x.clone' has formal type
'() -> Clonable'. However the actual type of the
method substitutes in an "opened" existential type
for 'Self'.
In order to implement the partial application we must
wrap the method in a thunk which 'erases' the opened
existential, so the thunk has type
<T : Clonable> (() -> T) -> () -> Clonable
The thunk is called with a substitution replacing 'T'
with the opened existential type.
