The Swift compiler expects the context to remain stable between when a module is built and loaded by a client. Usually the build system would rebuild a module if a dependency changes, or the compiler would rebuilt the module from a swiftinterface on a context change. However, such changes are not always detected and in that case the compiler may crash on an inconsistency in the context. We often see this when a clang module is poorly modularized, the headers are modified in the SDK, or some clang define change its API. These are project issues that used to make the compiler crash, it provided a poor experience and doesn't encourage the developer to fix them by themselves. Instead, let's keep track of modularization issues encountered during deserialization and report them as proper errors when they trigger a fatal failure preventing compilation.
