As proposed in SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer:
Rename 'init(allocatingCapacity:)' to 'UnsafeMutablePointer.allocate(capacity:)'
Rename 'deallocateCapacity' to 'deallocate(capacity:)'
`allocate` should not be an initializer. It's primary function is to allocate
memory, not initialize a pointer.
Remove the reference to String, which leaks internal implementation details,
check for invalid inputs, and make the API more flexible. Remove the similar
Swift API, since it provides no additional value.
Implements SE-0055: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0055-optional-unsafe-pointers.md
- Add NULL as an extra inhabitant of Builtin.RawPointer (currently
hardcoded to 0 rather than being target-dependent).
- Import non-object pointers as Optional/IUO when nullable/null_unspecified
(like everything else).
- Change the type checker's *-to-pointer conversions to handle a layer of
optional.
- Use 'AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSError?>?' as the type of error
parameters exported to Objective-C.
- Drop NilLiteralConvertible conformance for all pointer types.
- Update the standard library and then all the tests.
I've decided to leave this commit only updating existing tests; any new
tests will come in the following commits. (That may mean some additional
implementation work to follow.)
The other major piece that's missing here is migration. I'm hoping we get
a lot of that with Swift 1.1's work for optional object references, but
I still need to investigate.
replace ProtocolConformanceTypeKind with TypeMetadataRecordKind
metadata reference does not need to be indirectable
more efficient check for protocol conformances
remove swift_getMangledTypeName(), not needed yet
kill off Remangle.cpp for non-ObjC builds
cleanup

This reflects the fact that the attribute's only for compiler-internal use, and isn't really equivalent to C's asm attribute, since it doesn't change the calling convention to be C-compatible.
Getting the name of a type seems like reasonable core runtime functionality, and something the runtime can cache on its side too. Have the function return a pointer to a raw string in memory owned by the runtime, and have it be wrappen in a Swift.String on the standard library side.
We don't really need its peculiar behavior characteristics; its uses in the legacy mirror implementations can now be replaced by direct stringification of metatypes.
These types are leftovers from the early pre-1.0 times when Int and UInt
were always 64-bit on all platforms. They serve no useful purpose
today. Int and UInt are defined to be word-sized and should be used
instead.

Leave the qualification off of enum cases and type names when 'print'-ing them, but keep them on 'debugPrint'. (At least, at the outermost level; since ad-hoc printing of structs and tuples uses debugPrint, we'll still get qualification at depth, which kind of sucks but needs more invasive state management in print to make possible.) Implements rdar://problem/21788604.

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.
Fixes rdar://problem/17218256.

'x is P' works now, and this function isn't used anywhere except by a test that exercises it. Removing this also lets us remove a swath of otherwise unused helper static functions in the runtime.

The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
