This updates a large number of internal symbols, function names, and types to match the final approved terminology. Matching the surface language terminology and the compiler internals should make the code easier for people to understand into the future.

// SourceKit README
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
Welcome to SourceKit! SourceKit is a framework for supporting IDE features like
indexing, syntax-coloring, code-completion, etc. In general it provides the
infrastructure that an IDE needs for excellent language support.
SourceKit currently only supports the Swift language.
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
// Linking to the SourceKit C API
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
The stable C API for SourceKit is provided via the sourcekitd.framework which
uses an XPC service for process isolation and the libsourcekitdInProc.dylib
library which is in-process.
libsourcekitdInProc.dylib is more convenient for debugging. To use it either:
-Link to this library instead of the framework ("-lsourcekitdInProc" instead
of "-framework sourcekitd")
-Run the binary that linked to the framework using these environment variables:
DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/path/to/libsourcekitdInProc.dylib DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE=1 <...>
