To provide a reference counted pointer type with deterministic
destruction once managed boxes are switched over to a garbage
collector. Unlike managed boxes, these can be moved instead of just
copied/cloned which is helpful for avoiding reference counts.
Support #5297
install.mk : install-runtime-target added for conveneice
automatically push runtime library to android device
test.mk : expanded to support android test automation with adb
compiletest : expanded to support android test automation with adb
Moving the trait into `core` allows it to be added to the `num::Float` trait.
I have also added and `assert_approx_eq!` macro. This is useful fo making approximate assertions on types that implement the `ApproxEq` trait.
Examples:
~~~rust
// using the default epsilon value
assert_approx_eq!(1.0000001f, 1.0f);
// using a custom epsilon value
assert_approx_eq!(1.000001f, 1.0f, 1.0e-5);
// fails with: "left: 1.00001 does not approximately equal right: 1"
assert_approx_eq!(1.00001f, 1.0f);
~~~
The former fills each field of a struct or enum variant with a random
value (and picks a random enum variant). The latter makes the .to_str
method have the same output as fmt!("%?", ..).
This adds support for static methods, and arguments of most types, traits with
type parameters, methods with type parameters (and lifetimes for both), as well
as making the code more robust to support deriving on types with lifetimes (i.e.
'self).
transitional patch to resolve compile/link failure on android
after #6161 landed, I've encountered below errors since android does not support glob in libc.

Since android does not have `glob.h`, `glob_t` definition comes from
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-ndk/vSH6MWPD0Vk#6100 should be resolved.
In commit d7f5e43 "core::rt: Add the local heap to newsched tasks",
local_malloc and local_free have become rather big and their forced
inlining causes quite a bit of code bloat. Compile times for crates
affected by the bloat (e.g. rustc) improve, while others (e.g. libstd)
seem to be unaffected, so I guess the inlining doesn't gain us much.
