Alexander Udalov 8d7c8672ac Generate reference to existing class for builtin function references
Instead of non-existing `kotlin.KotlinPackage`, which led to
NoClassDefFoundError as soon as reflection tried to call getOwner on a
builtin callable reference, use a reference to a new physical class
`kotlin.jvm.internal.Intrinsics$Kotlin`. This will allow to support
KT-17151.

Note that for API version less than 1.4, this will still lead to
NoClassDefFoundError, but this is not worse than the current situation
where it happens anyway.

The Kotlin Standard Library

This module creates the standard library for Kotlin.

Notes for contributors

We use code generation to generate utility extension functions for some collection-like types like arrays, strings, Collection<T>, Sequence<T>, Map<K, V> etc.

These sources are placed into the generated folder and their names are prefixed with an underscore, for example, generated/_Collections.kt

To run the code generator, use the following command in the root directory of the project:

./gradlew :tools:kotlin-stdlib-gen:run

Note: on Windows type gradlew without the leading ./

This then runs the script which generates a significant part of stdlib sources from the templates written in a special Kotlin-based DSL.

Usage samples
