    array __equals lowering of dynamic arrays


The following very simple dub project no longer links:

dub.sdl:
name "oops"
dependency "std_data_json" version="~>0.18.2"

source/app.d:
void main() { import stdx.data.json.value; }


$ dub build

error: undefined reference to
'_D15taggedalgebraic__T15TaggedAlgebraicTS4stdx4data4json5value9JSONValue12PayloadUnionZQCn__T8opEqualsTxSQDz__TQDlTQCxZQDtTxQuZQBiMxFKxQBfZb'


Before the aforementioned commit, things work as expected. This is currently
making our builds at work fail due a dependency on std_data_json.

Investigating further, I inlined both std_data_json's value.d module and its
dependency taggedalgebraic, and deleted as much code as possible while still
getting a linker error and ended up with these two files:

app.d:
void main() { import oops; }

oops.d:
<attached>

To reproduce:
% dmd -g -c oops.d
% dmd -g -debug app.d oops.o

The issue goes away if the second line doesn't contain `-debug`. On this
reduced example, what's happening is that the two modules don't agree on the
attribute for opEquals. The linker error is that it can't find 

_D4oops__T15TaggedAlgebraicTSQBb9JSONValue12PayloadUnionZQBv__T8opEqualsTxSQCv__TQCtTQCfZQDbTxQuZQBiMxFKxQBfZb

demangled:

const            bool
oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic.opEquals!(const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic),
const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic)).opEquals(ref
const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic))


oops.o does contain a similar symbol, however:

_D4oops__T15TaggedAlgebraicTSQBb9JSONValue12PayloadUnionZQBv__T8opEqualsTxSQCv__TQCtTQCfZQDbTxQuZQBiMxFNaNfKxQBjZb

demangled:

const pure @safe bool
oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic.opEquals!(const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic),
const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic)).opEquals(ref
const(oops.TaggedAlgebraic!(oops.JSONValue.PayloadUnion).TaggedAlgebraic))


Notice that the symbol that actually exists is `pure @safe`, whereas the one
being looked for by app.d isn't. It seems then that for some reason the
attribute inference happens differently when compiling each module.
