77f7fe8dbc Swift: merge codegen and cppcodegen
Python code was simplified, and now a `--generate` option can be used
to drive what can be generated.

The extractor pack creation now will use an internally generated
dbscheme. This should be the same as the checked in one, but doing so
allows `bazel run create-extractor-pack` and `bazel run codegen` to be
run independently from one another, while previously the former had to
follow the latter in case of a schema change. This is the change that
triggered the above simplification, as in order for the two dbscheme
files to be identical, the first `// generated` line had to state the
same generator script.

946e1f498a Swift: generate getParent implementation
By explicitly marking children in the `schema.yml` file, an internal
`getAChild` predicate is implemented, that is in turn used in `AstNode`
to implement `getParent`.

This is yet to be used in the control flow library to replace the
hand-rolled implementation.

A further, more complex step is to use the same information to fully
generate the core implementation of `PrintAst` (including the
accessor string). This will be done later.

The `parent` tests use the same swift code as the extractor tests, and
this is currently enforced by `sync-files.py`. Notice that `qltest.sh`
had to be modified to deal with multiple files, which was not working
yet.

3a46db3f81 Swift: make C++ code generation more self-contained
This is solving a papercut, where the C++ build was relying on the
local dbscheme file to be up-to-date, even if all the information for
building is actually in `schema.yml`. This made a pure C++ development
cycle with changes to `schema.yml` clumsy, as it required a further
dbscheme generation step.

Now for C++ the dbscheme is generated internally in the build files, and
thus a change in `schema.yml` is reflected immediately in the C++ build.

A `swift/codegen` step for checked in generated code (including the
dbscheme) is still required, but a developer can do it just before
running QL tests or committing, instead of during each C++
recompilation.

Some directory reorganization was also carried out, moving specific
generator modules to a new `generators` python package, and only leaving
the two drivers at the top level.
