[swift-evolution] Remove the Need for 'self' to Access 'dynamicType'

[Mohamed Ebrahim Afifi]

Hi,

When access the `dynamicType` of a class inside one of its instance
methods. We should be using `self.dynamicType`. I purpose that the
dynamicType operator can be accessed without the need for the `self`.
So code like the following

class Foo {
    static let SomeStaticConstantValue = 5
    static func someStaticMethod() {
    }

    func bar() {
        self.dynamicType.someStaticMethod()
        print(self.dynamicType.SomeStaticConstantValue)
    }
}

can be translated to

class Foo {
    static let SomeStaticConstantValue = 5
    static func someStaticMethod() {
    }

    func bar() {
        dynamicType.someStaticMethod()
        print(dynamicType.SomeStaticConstantValue)
    }
}
