Introduce an experimental feature DeferredCodeGen, that defers the generation of LLVM IR (and therefore object code) for all entities within an Embedded Swift module unless they have explicitly requested to not be emitted into the client (e.g., with
@_neverEmitIntoClient
).This feature is meant to generalize and subsume
-emit-empty-object-file
, relying on lazy emission of entities rather than abruptly ending the compilation pipeline before emitting any IR.Part of rdar://158363967.
