a note about Symbol.typeSignature

No changes to behavior, just documenting internal workings of reflection
a bit more thoroughly, one step at a time.
Revert "synchronizes pendingVolatiles"

This reverts commit 000c18a8fac60065747652368dadcd7850532f3f,
because Symbol.isStable is independent from Type.isVolatile
since fada1ef6b315326ac0329d9e78951cfc95ad0eb0.
FromJavaClassCompleter is now flag-agnostic

A minor evolution of the notion of completion + also a small performance
optimization.
removes non-determinism in reflection-sync-potpourri

Depending on the environment in which the test is run, s1 can be either
“String” or “java.lang.String”. This is one of the known non-deterministic
behaviors of our reflection, caused by prefix stripping only working for
packages defined in the root mirror. Until we fix this, I suggest we make
the test more lenient.
SI-8131 fixes residual race condition in runtime reflection

Apparently some completers can call setInfo while they’re not yet done,
which resets the LOCKED flag, and makes anything that uses LOCKED to
track completion unreliable. Unfortunately, that’s exactly the mechanism
that was used by runtime reflection to elide locking for symbols that are
known to be initialized.

This commit fixes the problematic lock elision strategy by introducing
an explicit communication channel between SynchronizedSymbol’s and their
completers. Now instead of trying hard to infer whether it’s already
initialized or not, every symbol gets a volatile field that can be queried
to provide necessary information.
Scaladoc jars should go to /api.
Remove cruft from pom.

My understanding is distributionManagement is only needed to configure
maven locally for publishing. Since we do that it ant, getting rid of it.
SI-8170 Fix regression in TypeRef#transform w. PolyTypes

Regressed in SI-8046 / edc9edb7, by my hand.

At the time, I noticed the problem: transform wasn't accounting
for the potential Poly-Type-ness of its argument, and this would
lead to under-substituted types. The commit comment of edc9edb7
shows an example.

But the remedy wasn't the right one. The root problem is
that a TypeMap over a PolyType can return one with cloned
type parameter symbols, which means we've lose the ability
to substitute the type arguments into the result.

This commit detects up front whether the type-under-transform
is a PolyType with the current TypeRef's type parameters, and
just runs the `asSeenFrom` over its result type.
SI-8092 More verify for f-interpolator

Attempt to verify the nooks and crannies of the format string.

Allows all syntax in the javadoc, including arg indexes. If the
specifier after an arg has an index that doesn't refer to the arg,
a warning is issued and the missing `%s` is prepended (just as
for a part with a leading `%n`).

Other enhancements include detecting that a `Formattable` wasn't
supplied to `%#s`.

Error messages attempt to be pithy but descriptive.
Improve ExecutionContext implicitNotFound and docs

It is not good practice to import a specific ExecutionContext
all over the place; we shouldn't recommend that. People should
allow callers to specify the context in most cases and only
import the context in some central location in their code.

While we are at it, add some more comprehensive docs to
ExecutionContext which will hopefully give people enough understanding
to make decisions about it.
SI-7933 REPL javax.script eval is cached result

The problem is that the repl underneath the script engine evaluates input to
val res0..resN, so it is a one shot operation. To allow repetition,
compile(script) now returns a CompiledScript object whose eval method can be
called any number of times.
Optimize generic signatures utility method `dotCleanup`
Avoid needless Name creation

 - Don't create names just to perform prefix/suffix checks
 - Don't create names, decode, *and* intern strings in ICode
Optimization in Uncurry

Only perform HashMap lookup of a tree until after checking more
cheaply if it refers to a symbol with by-name parameter type.
Avoid work in GenICode#run when inactive.

scalaPrimitives.init() represented 1% of a small (1s)
compilation run.
SI-4997 deprecate StringLike.linesIterator for StringLike.lines

Deprecated.  lines is by far more consistent with the rest of the naming in the library.
turns off the gilSynchronizedIfNotInited optimization

According to Jason (https://github.com/scala/scala/pull/3391#issuecomment-32904460),
this one is still causing trouble, so we have to turn it off until
we have time to debug it.
SI-8228 Avoid infinite loop with erroneous code, overloading

`isApplicableBasedOnArity` couldn't get of the ferris wheel after
as `followApply` kept insisting on another spin.

    scala> ErrorType nonPrivateMember nme.apply
    res0: $r.intp.global.Symbol = value apply

    scala> res0.info
    res1: $r.intp.global.Type = <error>

This commit makes `followApply` consider that an `ErrorType`
does not contain an `apply` member.

I also considered whether to do a deep check on the type
(`isErroneous`), but I can't motivate this with a test.
I tend to think we *shouldn't* do that: `List[${ErrorType}]`
still has an `apply` member that we should follow, right?
SI-8173 add support for patterns like init :+ last to quasiquotes

Adds support for patterns like:

  val q"{ ..$init; $last }" = q"{ a; b; c }"
  // init == List(q"a", q"b")
  // last == q"c"

Which under the hood get compiled as `:+` patterns:

  SyntacticBlock(init :+ last)
SI-8092 Refactor f-interp

A denshish refactor makes the FormatInterpolator a nice bundle
that destructures its input and flattens out the classes to
give the code some elbow room. Everything shifts left.

The `checkType` method is refolded and renamed `pickAcceptable`.

An additional test case captures the leading edge test, that
a % should follow a hole, and which is the most basic
requirement.
