Move ownership of type system entities to CompilerTypeSystemContext #3873

MichalStrehovsky commented 7 years ago

Type system entities that produce code or EETypes need to be owned by the CompilerTypeSystemContext so that we can match/reconcile them between the scanning and code generation phases.

We currently e.g. can't do fixed slot assignments to virtual methods on interop's delegate wrappers. Similar problems will arise for e.g. reflection invoke stubs and their generic dictionary layout (once we start inlining generic dictionary lookups).

When resolving this bug, look for the issue number in the sources. We have some workarounds in place.
