[swift-users] Flatmap initializer inconsistency

[Zhao Xin]

That is because for `Optional` the `flatMap` is `func flatMap<U>(_
transform: (Wrapped) throws -> U?) rethrows -> U?` and for `Int`, only
`init?(exactly value: Double)` fits the situation. `init(_ value: Double)`
doesn't return nil. So there is no ambiguity.
