[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0077: Improved operator declarations

[Xiaodi Wu]

Generally in favor. To indulge in a little bikeshedding:

* `precedencegroup` defines both associativity and precedence, so the
naming isn't great. Maybe `operatorgroup`?
* I'm not sure about the parentheses used between the braces. To me, it
would fit better with the language to use colons.
* It may be confusing that relative precedence levels are themselves
described using operators or words that describe operators. I'd suggest
simpler words that aren't self-referential, such as "above" and "below".

So to put it all together, here's the color of my bikeshed:

```
operatorgroup Comparative {
  associativity: left,
  precedence: above(LogicalAnd)
}
