To avoid depending on a heavy module 'frontend' in parts of the compiler
where checking for optional annotations is needed, such as in
'ir.serialization.common'.
Introduce an enum DeserializedContainerAbiStability with two values.
This is needed in order to support another reason for ABI instability in
a subsequent commit, namely "unstable because compiled by FIR".

instead of statically registering it.
Static registering can cause subtle errors when plugin implementation
(e.g. SerializationDescriptorPluginForKotlinxSerialization) is registered
from multiple classloaders: in multi-module with daemon compilation scenario
#KT-41857 Fixed
A mechanism that allows kotlinx.serialization plugin to preserve the
correct (program) order of properties after serializing/deserializing
descriptors to kotlin metadata, which is needed for correct and stable
json serialization of class hierarchies in incremental/multi-module scenario.
It uses protobuf extensions.
From now on, the old JVM backend will report an error by default when
compiling against class files produced by the JVM IR backend. This is
needed because we're not yet sure that the ABI generated by JVM IR is
fully correct and do not want to land in a 2-dimensional compatibility
situation where we'll need to consider twice more scenarios when
introducing any breaking change in the language. This is generally OK
since the JVM IR backend is still going to be experimental in 1.4.
However, for purposes of users which _do_ need to compile something with
the old backend against JVM IR, we provide two new compiler flags:
* -Xallow-jvm-ir-dependencies -- allows to suppress the error when
compiling with the old backend against JVM IR.
* -Xir-binary-with-stable-api -- allows to mark the generated binaries
as stable, when compiling anything with JVM IR, so that dependent
modules will compile even with the old backend automatically. In this
case, the author usually does not care for the generated ABI, or s/he
ensures that it's consistent with the one expected by the old compiler
with some external tools.
Internally, this is implemented by storing two new flags in
kotlin.Metadata: one tells if the class file was compiled with the JVM
IR, and another tells if the class file is stable (in case it's compiled
with JVM IR). Implementation is similar to the diagnostic reported by
the pre-release dependency checker.
The old compiler will crash if it tries to inline a function that's
passing a lambda parameter into the new parameter null check method
`Intrinsics.checkNotNullParameter` because that usage is not considered as
inlinable by the old compiler (it only knows about
`Intrinsics.checkParameterIsNotNull`). Therefore we require that these
functions can only be read by compilers of version 1.3.50 or greater.
#KT-22275 Fixed
Local aliases can be copied as-is to a different fragment now. Before this change we would have had to extract the local alias tag (if any) from the source fragment and add to the destination fragment name bindings.
Module references were stored as plain JsName's. When inlining a function
from one fragment to another, those references should be re-interpreted
in terms of the destination fragment. Storing the whole module information
makes that much easier.
Functor is an imperative representation of function's contract (contrary
to ContractDescription, which is a declarative one). ContractDescription
is convenient when we deal with sources of contracts declarations
(binaries, source), while Functors are convenient for analyzing code
with contracts.
It means that we have to convert ContractDescription into Functor when
we start working with contracts. This computation isn't trivial, and
Functor and ContractDescription are in 1-1 correspondence, so we would
like to cache Functor for each ContractDescription somewhere.
We used to do this in binding trace, in slice FUNCTOR.
Now, it turns out that this approach causes "Rewrite at slice"
exception, see KT-28847. We won't go into details of why that happens
here, you can see the issue comments for details (but be prepared for the
very long and nitty-gritty story)
This commit removes the problematic slice and introduces another
approach, where Functor is attached to the ContractDescription, computed
lazily and cached here.

Declare AnalysisFlags in module 'frontend', and JvmAnalysisFlags in
module 'frontend.java', to avoid leaking Java-related logic to common
compiler code
