[swift-evolution] [Review] SE-0102: Remove @noreturn attribute and introduce an empty NoReturn type

[Vladimir.S]

+1, I feel it will be very 'Swifty' to replace magical @noreturn attribute 
to clear special type(which then, later, probably could be used as bottom 
type).  But I prefer "Never" as such type's name. IMO it's very easy to 
teach anyone that "Never" can't have instance of its type so `-> Never` 
means the func will not return and it reads clearly "returns never", so I 
believe it will not confuse one after first teching of meaning of Never type.
