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`.
At DaveA's suggestion, I took a mostly mechanical approach to this:
pointers and numeric types start using += 1, and indexes use
i = i.successor(). The index model is likely to be revised in
Swift 3 anyway, so micro-optimizing this code syntactically isn't
super important.
There is some performance concern of this patch, since some
in-place succesor operations are more efficient than
i = i.successor(). The one that seems particularly at issue is the
instance in the implementation of partition(), which I changed to
use i._successorInPlace(). If other instances lead to a perf issue,
they can be changed to use that as well.
Most of this is in updating the standard library, SDK overlays, and
piles of test cases to use the new names. No surprises here, although
this shows us some potential heuristic tweaks.
There is one substantive compiler change that needs to be factored out
involving synthesizing calls to copyWithZone()/copy(zone:). Aside from
that, there are four failing tests:
Swift :: ClangModules/objc_parse.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/Foundation_test.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/archiving_generic_swift_class.swift
Swift :: Interpreter/SDK/objc_currying.swift
due to two independent remaining compiler bugs:
* We're not getting partial ordering between NSCoder's
encode(AnyObject, forKey: String) and NSKeyedArchiver's version of
that method, and
* Dynamic lookup (into AnyObject) doesn't know how to find the new
names. We need the Swift name lookup tables enabled to address this.
Also remove dependent calls to hoistableNativeTypeCheck() and checkSubscript()
calls. To find the guarding checkSubscript() call we introduce a return value to
checkSubscript that is used by the _getElement() call so that we can just follow
the use-def chain to find the dependence.
These APIs are from the Swift 1.2 => Swift 2.0 transition, and are not
relevant anymore.
Removing them reduces the surface area of the library that needs to be
reviewed.
All refutable patterns and function parameters marked with 'var'
is now an error.
- Using explicit 'let' keyword on function parameters causes a warning.
- Don't suggest making function parameters mutable
- Remove uses in the standard library
- Update tests

The basic idea is to move the allocation of the buffer out of @_semantics("array.uninitialized") so that it can be inlined without inlining the semantics function (on high-level SIL).
This change in the stdlib also requires an adaption of the dead area elimination in DeadObjectElimination.
Otherwise it would just remove the semantics function but not the allocation and we would leak memory.
