use a thin function type.
We still need thin-function-to-RawPointer conversions
for generic code, but that's fixable with some sort of
partial_apply_thin_recoverable instruction.

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.

if-let statements (also while and var, of course) that include multiple bindings
and where clauses.
SILGen support still remains, it currently just asserts on the new constructs.

optional callback; retrofit existing implementations.
There's a lot of unpleasant traffic in raw pointers here
which I'm going to try to clean up.
