Relax the conversion rules for Objective-C GC qualifiers a
bit by allowing __weak and __strong to be added/dropped as part of
implicit conversions (qualification conversions in C++). A little
history: GCC lets one add/remove/change GC qualifiers just about
anywhere, implicitly. Clang did roughly the same before, but we
recently normalized the semantics of qualifiers across the board to
get a semantics that we could reason about (yay). Unfortunately, this
tightened the screws a bit too much for GC qualifiers, where it's
common to add/remove these qualifiers at will.
Overall, we're still in better shape than we were before: we don't
permit directly changing the GC qualifier (e.g., __weak -> __strong),
so type safety is improved. More importantly, we're internally
consistent in our handling of qualifiers, and the logic that allows
adding/removing GC qualifiers (but not adding/removing address
spaces!) only touches two obvious places.
Fixes <rdar://problem/9402499>.
