Michael Gottesman 62b5110357 [sil] Add a new CastConsumptionKind called BorrowAlways. ...

This means that:

1. SILGenPattern always borrows the object before it emits a case.
2. Any cast with this cast has a +0 result.

NOTE: That one can not use this with address types (so we assert if you
pass this checked_cast_addr_br).
NOTE: Once we have opaque values, checked_cast_br of a guaranteed value will
lower to a copy + checked_cast_addr_br (assuming the operation is a consuming
cast). To make sure this does not become a problem in terms of performance, we
will need a pass that can transform SILGenPattern +0 cases to +1 cases. This is
something that we have talked about in the past and I think it is reasonable to
implement.

This is an incremental commit towards fixing SILGenPattern for ownership.
