It’s almost 1am, so I’m only scratching the surface, mechanistically
applying the renames that I’ve written down in my notebook:
* typeSignature => info
* declarations => decls
* nme/tpnme => termNames/typeNames
* paramss => paramLists
* allOverriddenSymbols => overrides
Some explanation is in order so that I don’t get crucified :)
1) No information loss happens when abbreviating `typeSignature` and `declarations`.
We already have contractions in a number of our public APIs (e.g. `typeParams`),
and I think it’s fine to shorten words as long as people can understand
the shortened versions without a background in scalac.
2) I agree with Simon that `nme` and `tpnme` are cryptic. I think it would
be thoughtful of us to provide newcomers with better names. To offset
the increase in mouthfulness, I’ve moved `MethodSymbol.isConstructor`
to `Symbol.isConstructor`, which covers the most popular use case for nme’s.
3) I also agree that putting `paramss` is a lot to ask of our users.
The double-“s” convention is very neat, but let’s admit that it’s just
weird for the newcomers. I think `paramLists` is a good compromise here.
4) `allOverriddenSymbols` is my personal complaint. I think it’s a mouthful
and a shorter name would be a much better fit for the public API.

Reflection API exhibits a tension inherent to experimental things:
on the one hand we want it to grow into a beautiful and robust API,
but on the other hand we have to deal with immaturity of underlying mechanisms
by providing not very pretty solutions to enable important use cases.
In Scala 2.10, which was our first stab at reflection API, we didn't
have a systematic approach to dealing with this tension, sometimes exposing
too much of internals (e.g. Symbol.deSkolemize) and sometimes exposing
too little (e.g. there's still no facility to change owners, to do typing
transformations, etc). This resulted in certain confusion with some internal
APIs living among public ones, scaring the newcomers, and some internal APIs
only available via casting, which requires intimate knowledge of the
compiler and breaks compatibility guarantees.
This led to creation of the `internal` API module for the reflection API,
which provides advanced APIs necessary for macros that push boundaries
of the state of the art, clearly demarcating them from the more or less
straightforward rest and providing compatibility guarantees on par with
the rest of the reflection API.
This commit does break source compatibility with reflection API in 2.10,
but the next commit is going to introduce a strategy of dealing with that.

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)

This adds support for construction and deconstruction
of implicit argument list which was originally suggested
by @cvogt.
1. Splicing vale into implicit argument list automatically
adds implicit flag to them:
val x = q"val x: Int"
q"def foo(implicit $x)"
// <=> q"def foo(implicit x: Int)"
2. One might extract implicit argument list separately from
other argument lists:
val q”def foo(...$argss)(implicit ..$impl)" =
q"def foo(implicit x: Int)
// argss is Nil, impl contains valdef for x
But this doesn't require you to always extract it separatly:
val q”def foo(...$argss)" =
q"def foo(implicit x: Int)
// argss contains valdef for x

In order to implement this a new parser entry point
`parseStatsOrPackages` that augments current parseStats with ability
to parse "package name { ... }" syntax.
