…ache. The runtime that shipped with Swift 5.1 and earlier had a bug that interfered with backward deployment of binaries that dynamically check for protocol conformances on conditionally-available tests. This was fixed in the top-of-tree Swift runtime by swiftlang#29887; however, that doesn't do much good for running binaries on older OSes that don't have that fix. In order for binaries built with a newer Swift compiler to run successfully on older OSes, introduce a compatibility hook that replaces the conformance cache implementation in the original OS runtime with a version based on the current implementation that has the fix for the protocol conformance bug.
