Allan Shortlidge 6d22433d0f AST/SILGen: Use @_alwaysEmitIntoClient diagnostic helper in unavailable code. ...

The `_diagnoseUnavailableCodeReached()` function was introduced in the Swift
5.9 standard library and employs `@backDeployed` to support compilation of
binaries that target OS releases aligned with earlier Swift releases.
Unfortunately, though, this backdeployment strategy doesn't work well for some
unusual build environments. Specifically, in some configurations code may be
built with a compiler from a recent Swift toolchain and then linked against the
dylibs in an older toolchain. When linking against the older dylibs, the
`_diagnoseUnavailableCodeReached()` function does not exist but the
`@backDeployed` thunks emitted into the binary reference that function and
therefore linking fails.

The idea of building with one toolchain and then linking to the dylibs in a
different, older toolchain is extremely dubious. However, it exists and for now
we need to support it. This PR introduces an alternative
`_diagnoseUnavailableCodeReached()` function that is annotated with
`@_alwaysEmitIntoClient`. Calls to the AEIC variant are now emitted by the
compiler when the deployment target is before Swift 5.9.

Once these unusual build environments upgrade and start linking against a Swift
5.9 toolchain or later we can revert all of this.
