SI-6844 restrict splicing in parameter position

Previously were a bit too permissive on how splicing in function
parameter position worked. This made confusing things like
possible:

   val x = TermName(“x”)
   q”def foo($x)”

Now you can either splice trees in that position (ValDefs) or
you have to provide type if you splice a name.
SI-8076 improve support for implicit argument list

This adds support for construction and deconstruction
of implicit argument list which was originally suggested
by @cvogt.

1. Splicing vale into implicit argument list automatically
   adds implicit flag to them:

     val x = q"val x: Int"
     q"def foo(implicit $x)"
     // <=> q"def foo(implicit x: Int)"

2. One might extract implicit argument list separately from
   other argument lists:

     val q”def foo(...$argss)(implicit ..$impl)" =
       q"def foo(implicit x: Int)
     // argss is Nil, impl contains valdef for x

   But this doesn't require you to always extract it separatly:

     val q”def foo(...$argss)" =
       q"def foo(implicit x: Int)
     // argss contains valdef for x
SI-7445 ListMap.tail is returning wrong result

Reverted the commit that introduced the bug, and modified HashMap to no
longer assume that tail is O(1).

Add support for Java 8 in our build.

We explicitly check for supported Java versions in our build.
Add Java 8 to the list of supported versions.
Work-around for partest failure due to JDK bug.

JDK7 and JDK8 have a bug that causes JVM to print some warning about
applets that is unrelated to whatever we are testing in Scala. Let's
work it around using test/files/filters mechanism that allows us to filter
out output lines based on regexp.
Make abstract-report2 test less dependent on std library.

Replace the use of `Ordering` by custom, dummy trait Xyz defined in test's
source.

By not inheriting from Ordering in abstract-report2 we make the test
less dependent on both Scala and Java library. The reason we are less
dependent on Java is because Ordering extends Java's comparator.

This change is motivated by the fact that Java 8 introduced default
method `reversed` to Comparator interface and we get a failure due to
conflicting inheritance:

-abstract-report2.scala:9: error: trait Bippy inherits conflicting members:
-  method reversed in trait TraversableOnce of type => List[(T2, String)]  and
-  method reversed in trait Comparator of type ()java.util.Comparator[T3]
-(Note: this can be resolved by declaring an override in trait Bippy.)
-trait Bippy[T1, T2, T3] extends Collection[T1] with TraversableOnce[(T2, String)] with Ordering[T3]
-      ^
Add cross suffix customizability for modules

For each module whose version can be specified using
the property "xxx.version.number", it is now possible
to specify its cross version suffix by using an
optional property "xxx.cross.suffix".

If such a property is not defined, then continue to
use the string "_${scala.binary.version}", as before.

Expose seq field for variable arity definitions

In 2.11 we've changed TupleClass, ProductClass and FunctionClass
endpoints to be exposed as (Int => Symbol) functions that never throw
exceptions but rather return NoSymbol instead of previous error-prone
indexed access on array that could explode.

While simplifying one use case (indexed access) it complicated
ability to check if symbol at hand is in fact a tuple, product or
function:

  (1 to 22).map(TupleClass).toList.contains(symbol)

To cover this extra use case we add a seq method to the variable arity
class definitions that exposes a corresponding sequence of class symbols:

  TupleClass.seq.contains(symbol)

an optimization for c.eval

People are very frequently using c.eval in order to obtain underlying
values of literals. Spinning up a new compiler for that modest purpose
is a gross waste of fossil fuels.

SI-6879 improves Context.freshName

Instead of per-compilation unit unique counters, the freshName API now
uses a per-Global counter. Fresh names now also contain dollars to exclude
clashes with supported user-defined names (the ones without dollar signs).

This doesn’t fix the bug, because per-Global counters get created anew
every time a new Global is instantiated, and that provides some potential
for name clashes even for def macros, but at least it completely excludes
clashes in typical situations.

Tag synthetic unit with attachment

This makes it easy to differentiate unit inserted by a compiler vs unit
written by the user. Useful for quasiquotes and pretty printing.

Additionally SyntacticBlock extractor is changed to treat EmptyTree as
zero-element block.

New approach makes iterated function much more clear through aggressive

SI-7275 allow flattening of blocks with ..$

This commit extends current splicing rules to allow flattening of
trees into other trees.

Without such support it is impossible to correctly create vals with
patterns and use it in other location as they could expand into
multiple-statement blocks:

    scala> q"val (a, b) = (1, 2)"
    res0: reflect.runtime.universe.Tree =
    {
      <synthetic> <artifact> private[this] val x$1 = scala.Tuple2(1, 2):
    @scala.unchecked match {
        case scala.Tuple2((a @ _), (b @ _)) => scala.Tuple2(a, b)
      };
      val a = x$1._1;
      val b = x$1._2;
      ()
    }

    scala> q"..$res0; println(a + b)"
    res1: reflect.runtime.universe.Tree =
    {
      <synthetic> <artifact> private[this] val x$1 = scala.Tuple2(1, 2):
    @scala.unchecked match {
        case scala.Tuple2((a @ _), (b @ _)) => scala.Tuple2(a, b)
      };
      val a = x$1._1;
      val b = x$1._2;
      println(a.$plus(b))
    }
