[Accepted] SE-0365: Allow implicit self for weak self captures, after self is unwrapped

Hello Swift Community,

The review of SE-0365 ended on August 1st, 2022. This proposal improves the ergonomics for use of implicit self in closures capturing self weakly. The Language Workgroup has decided to accept the proposal.

Feedback on the proposal was mostly positive. Reviewers identified that the proposal text could be clarified further though were also generally of the opinion that it helped improve the language. While some may prefer the explicit self, that is not prevented with this addition to the language.

Thank you for participating in this review and contributing to Swift.
