This pull request eliminates the notion of "witness markers" from the frontend. To do so, introduce a new operation on generic signatures,
enumeratePairedRequirements()
, which invokes a callback with each(dependent type, set-of-conformance-requirements) pair that needs to
be recorded within substitutions. Switch the last two remaining
consumers of witness markers (
GenericSignature::getAllDependentTypes()
and
GenericSignature::getSubstitutions()
) over to this new entrypoint. Then delete all notions of witness markers.
