Summary:
The AffineTransform() and NSAffineTransform() initializers do not produce the same backing transformation matrices. This breaks automatic migration of NSAffineTransform to AffineTransform, as behavior differs. 

AffineTransform() => {m11:0.0, m12:0.0, m21:0.0, m22:0.0, tX:0.0, tY:0.0}
NSAffineTransform() => {m11:1.0, m12:0.0, m21:0.0, m22:1.0, tX:0.0, tY:0.0}

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an NSAffineTransform using NSAffineTransform()
2. Create an AffineTransform using AffineTransform()
3. Check if the AffineTransform is equal to the NSAffineTransform’s transformStruct.

Expected Results:
The equality check should return true.

Actual Results:
The equality check returns false.

Version:
Xcode 8.0 beta 5 (8S193k)
OS X 10.11.6 (15G31)

Notes:
A workaround is to use AffineTransform.identity instead of AffineTransform(). Still, this is unexpected.

See attached playground.

import Cocoa

func compare(transformStruct: AffineTransform, transformObject: NSAffineTransform) -> Bool {
    if transformStruct == transformObject.transformStruct {
        print("Equal!")
        return true
    } else {
        print("Not equal!")
        print("AffineTransform = \(transformStruct)")
        print("NSAffineTransform = \(transformObject.transformStruct)")
        return false
    }
}

// Returns false
compare(transformStruct: AffineTransform(), transformObject: NSAffineTransform())

// Returns true
compare(transformStruct: AffineTransform.identity, transformObject: NSAffineTransform())
