Objective-ARC++: infer template type arguments of

ownership-unqualified retainable object type as __strong. This allows
us to write, e.g.,

  std::vector<id>

and we'll infer that the vector's element types have __strong
ownership semantics, which is far nicer than requiring:

  std::vector<__strong id>

Note that we allow one to override the ownership qualifier of a
substituted template type parameter, e.g., given

  template<typename T>
  struct X {
    typedef __weak T type;
  };

X<id> is treated the same as X<__strong id>. At instantiation type,
the __weak in "__weak T" overrides the (inferred or specified)
__strong on the template argument type, so that we can still provide
metaprogramming transformations.

This is part of <rdar://problem/9595486>.
