This syntax is reserved to be likely used in the future as a shorthand for
"this::foo" where the resulting expression doesn't take the receiver as a
parameter but has "this" already bound to it
Resolve callable references taking into account expected callable types.
This affects call resolution procedure (resolve 'foo' in for 'foo(::bar)') similar to the approach used for function literals:
* During "shape arguments" phase of call resolution, callable references are resolved in independent context without expected type. If the callable reference is ambiguous, its shape type is a function placeholder type without parameter types and return type information. Otherwise, it is a reflection type for the resolved function or property. Upper-level call is resolved without taking into account ambiguous callable references.
* During "complete call" phase of call resolution, resolve callable reference arguments to actual descriptors (if possible), and update constraint system for the given call accordingly.

Sometimes it's allowed to parse "annotation" unescaped even if other annotations must be escaped.
A set of annotations and their options tests.
A swarm of existing tests fixed (mostly kotlin.annotation.annotation() added to txt-files).
STUB_VERSION increased. Some quick fixes slightly changed.
Get rid of all classes except kotlin.reflect.KFunction, which will be used to
represent all kinds of simple functions.
Lots of changes to test data are related to the fact that KFunction is not an
extension function (as opposed to KMemberFunction and KExtensionFunction who
were) and so a member or an extension function reference now requires all
arguments be passed to it in the parentheses, including receivers. This is
probably temporary until we support calling any function both as a free
function and as an extension. In JS, functions and extension functions are not
interchangeable, so tests on this behavior are removed until this is supported
Without this, the unrelated type specified on the LHS of a property reference
literal was considered to be an extension receiver of the candidate, and the
resolution was erroneously successul. This is only reproducible for properties,
because if we're trying to resolve an extension, we consider all properties
from the scope, even non-extensions, because there may be a property of an
extension-functional type (T.() -> R). (We don't do this for functions.)

For example,
KMemberFunction2<T, P1, P2, R> : KMemberFunction<T, R>
So for this inheritance the heuristic that was present ("take the last K type
parameters of the subclass, and substitute for K parameters of the superclass")
was wrong. The new heuristic for this case is: take type parameters with the
same names.
Also don't store "parameters" in a lazy value, since it's easy to compute and
it's computed practically every time anyway
Metadata for KFunction classes is now longer serialized along with built-in
classes. This effectively means that it's no longer possible to find KFunction
classes via dependency on built-ins. There should be a kotlin-runtime library
in the specified classpath for reflection types to be resolvable.
A lot of tests were moved and changed, because tests on callable references
require stdlib in classpath from now on
It's not clear in which order should the two receiver arguments be passed to
them, and there's no corresponding K*FunctionN class for now
