  Specialize code on types.

  Specialize code on types.

  Make sure you've read the thesis:

  Iulian Dragos: Compiling Scala for Performance (chapter 4)

  There are some things worth noting, (possibly) not mentioned there: 0) Make sure you understand the meaning of various `SpecializedInfo` descriptors defined below.

  1) Specializing traits by introducing bridges in specialized methods of the specialized trait may introduce problems during mixin composition. Concretely, it may cause cyclic calls and result in a stack overflow. See ticket #4351. This was solved by introducing an `Abstract` specialized info descriptor. Instead of generating a bridge in the trait, an abstract method is generated.

  2) Specialized private members sometimes have to be switched to protected. In some cases, even this is not enough. Example:

      class A[@specialized T](protected val d: T) {
        def foo(that: A[T]) = that.d
      }

  Specialization will generate a specialized class and a specialized method:

      class A$mcI$sp(protected val d: Int) extends A[Int] {
        def foo(that: A[Int]) = foo$mcI$sp(that)
        def foo(that: A[Int]) = that.d
      }

  Above, `A$mcI$sp` cannot access `d`, so the method cannot be typechecked.
