  • Explanation: As of [Dependency Scanning] Scan header inputs of binary Swift module dependencies swift#72067, we serialize (bridging) .h inputs directly into binary .swiftmodule files, because their clients may not be able to use the binary module's corresponding .pch files due to a compilation context mismatch. The clients of such binary modules then consume the serialized .h files directly, and compile them, implicitly, using explicit module dependencies collected during scan of such header files. This change removes leftover code that relied on a prior, incorrect, assumption that we pass on binary dependencies' PCH inputs to their clients.
  • Scope: This affects Explicit Module Builds where source client being compiled depends on a binary-only .swiftmodule dependency which was built with a bridging header.
  • Risk: Low. This change only deletes a code-path that previously was extremely likely to lead to a compilation error downstream.

…er inputs of binary module dependencies

As of swiftlang/swift#72067, we instead serialize `.h` inputs directly into binary `.swiftmodule` files, because their clients may not be able to use the dependnecies' corresponding `.pch` files due to a compilation context mismatch. The clients of such binary modules then consume the serialized `.h` files directly, and compile them, implicitly, using explicit module dependencies collected during scan of such header files.
