The general self-derived check doesn't really make sense for
conformance constraints, because we want to distinguish among
different protocol conformances.
The list of directly inherited protocols of a ProtocolDecl is already
encoded in the requirement signature, as conformance constraints where
the subject is Self. Gather the list from there rather than separately
computing/storing the list of "inherited protocols".
Previously, validateDecl() would check if the declaration had an
interface type and use that as an indication not to proceed.
However for functions we can only set an interface type after
checking the generic signature, so a recursive call to validateDecl()
on a function would "steal" the outer call and complete validation.
For generic types, this meant we could have a declaration with a
valid interface type but no generic signature.
Both cases were problematic, so narrow workarounds were put in
place with additional new flags. This made the code harder to
reason about.
This patch consolidates the flags and establishes new invariants:
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has no interface
type and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set, it means one
of the parent contexts is being validated by an outer recursive
call.
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has the
isBeingValidated() flag set, it may or may not have an interface
type. In this case, the declaration itself is being validated
by an outer recursive call.
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has an interface
type and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set, it means the
declaration and all of its parent contexts are fully validated
and ready for use.
In general, we still want name lookup to find things that have an
interface type but are not in a valid generic context, so for this
reason nominal types and associated types get an interface type as
early as possible.
Most other code only wants to see fully formed decls, so a new
hasValidSignature() method returns true iff the interface type is
set and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set.
For example, while resolving a type, we can resolve an unqualified
reference to a nominal type without a valid signature. However, when
applying generic parameters, the hasValidSignature() flag is used
to ensure we error out instead of crashing if the generic signature
has not yet been formed.
This leads to some bad recursion through validateDecl(), even
when called from the ITC. We already had machinery to add
implicit constructors later, it just had to be extended to
do it for the superclass as well.
One minor revision: this lifts the proposed restriction against
overriding a non-open method with an open one. On reflection,
that was inconsistent with the existing rule permitting non-public
methods to be overridden with public ones. The restriction on
subclassing a non-open class with an open class remains, and is
in fact consistent with the existing access rule.
This at least emits notes when someone overrides something but
gets the types a little wrong (more than just mismatched optionals,
as handled in d669d152).

In many places, we're interested in whether a type with archetypes *might be* a superclass of another type with the right bindings, particularly in the optimizer. Provide a separate Type::isBindableToSuperclassOf method that performs this check. Use it in the devirtualizer to fix rdar://problem/24993618. Using it might unblock other places where the optimizer is conservative, but we can fix those separately.
Now that we have lazy metadata accessors for classes and vtable thunking, we don't have any reason to prevent concrete subclasses of generic base classes. Wire up IRGen to lazily instantiate the superclass for concrete derived classes when their metadata is accessed, using a runtime function that installs all the necessary pointers and metadata and registers the fully-initialized class with the ObjC runtime.

<rdar://problem/15975935> warning that you can use 'let' not 'var'
<rdar://problem/18876585> Compiler should warn me if I set a parameter as 'var' but never modify it
<rdar://problem/17224539> QoI: warn about unused variables
This uses a simple pass in MiscDiagnostics that walks the body of an
AbstractFunctionDecl. This means that it doesn't warn about unused properties (etc),
but it captures a vast majority of the cases.
It also does not warn about unused parameters (as a policy decision) because it is too noisy,
there are a variety of other refinements that could be done as well, thoughts welcome.

The code would generate different diagnosics depending on
the cycle having length 1 or longer. The length 1 case
was broken if the path had a prefix that wasn't part
of the cycle, eg if we have C : A, A : A and visit C
first.

If you want to make the parameter and argument label the same in
places where you don't get the argument label for free (i.e., the
first parameter of a function or a parameter of a subscript),
double-up the identifier:

Replace the loop over all known protocols with a query into the
actual conformance lookup table, which more properly deals with
out-of-order conformance queries, inheritance of protocol
conformances, and conformance queries in multi-file situtations.
The SILGen test change is because we're no longer emitting redundant
conformances, while the slight diagnostic regression in
circular-inheritance cases is because we handle circular inheritance
very poorly throughout the compiler.
While not the end, this is a major step toward finishing

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.

Previously the "as" keyword could either represent coercion or or forced
downcasting. This change separates the two notions. "as" now only means
type conversion, while the new "as!" operator is used to perform forced
downcasting. If a program uses "as" where "as!" is called for, we emit a
diagnostic and fixit.
Internally, this change removes the UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr class, in
favor of directly instantiating CoerceExpr when parsing the "as"
operator, and ForcedCheckedCastExpr when parsing the "as!" operator.
Swift SVN r24253
Also warn when the subclass returns 'T!' where the superclass returns 'T?'.
In both cases, allow silencing by wrapping the 'T!' in parentheses.
This is intended to provide migration help as Objective-C classes get
annotated for nullability. Because of that, the check is only run on @objc
classes, though it's not limited to classes that actually come from Objective-C
because of (a) deep subclass chains that may all need updating, and (b) ease
of testing.

There's a bit of a reshuffle of the ExplicitCastExpr subclasses:
- The existing ConditionalCheckedCastExpr expression node now represents
"as?".
- A new ForcedCheckedCastExpr node represents "as" when it is a
downcast.
- CoerceExpr represents "as" when it is a coercion.
- A new UnresolvedCheckedCastExpr node describes "as" before it has
been type-checked down to ForcedCheckedCastExpr or CoerceExpr. This
wasn't a strictly necessary change, but it helps us detangle what's
going on.
There are a few new diagnostics to help users avoid getting bitten by
as/as? mistakes:
- Custom errors when a forced downcast (as) is used as the operand
of postfix '!' or '?', with Fix-Its to remove the '!' or make the
downcast conditional (with as?), respectively.
- A warning when a forced downcast is injected into an optional,
with a suggestion to use a conditional downcast.
- A new error when the postfix '!' is used for a contextual
downcast, with a Fix-It to replace it with "as T" with the
contextual type T.
Lots of test updates, none of which felt like regressions. The new
tests are in test/expr/cast/optionals.swift.
