This is a cherry-pick of #70816, implementing the
Sequence.count(where:)
method as proposed in SE-0220.Explanation: This changes implements the
count(where:)
extension method on theSequence
protocol.Scope: This adds one new method as a protocol extension. It does not add any new ABI, as the method is marked AEIC, which is required due to its use of typed throws. (Note that unlike with the changes to existing stdlib methods to add typed throws, there's no prior ABI for this method, so the residual hidden overload isn't necessary.)
Issue: SE-0220
Original PR: #70816
Risk: Low. When this specific API was approved and added to the stdlib in Swift 5.0 time frame, it caused type checking performance regressions due to its name collision with
Collection.count
. We're confident that the type checker improvements since then will make this a non-issue.Testing: The PR includes unit testing for behavior and error handling.
