When there is a mutating function nested inside an encapsulating function and both are differentiated, the compiler can swizzle around components of the gradient. This first manifested in a subtle runtime crash, but caused a compiler crash when it jumbled around gradient components with different Swift types.
The fix the bug, this PR avoids rotating direct parameters if the first one is "indirect mutating". I do not know whether we should use the same tactic with indirect parameters or when a direct parameter in a position besides index 0 is "indirect mutating".
The original reproducer for SR-15793 has been added to a validation test. The regression test is a new reproducer - which crashes the compiler - that I created while finding the solution to this bug.
Fixes #58070, formerly known as SR-15793.
