Prefer String::from over from_str; String::from_str is unstable while
String::from is stable. Promote the latter by using it in examples.
Simply migrating unstable function to the closest alternative.
Debug overflow checks for arithmetic negation landed in #24500, at which time
the `abs` method on signed integers was changed to using `wrapping_neg` to
ensure that the function never panicked. This implied that `abs` of `INT_MIN`
would return `INT_MIN`, another negative value. When this change was back-ported
to beta, however, in #24708, the `wrapping_neg` function had not yet been
backported, so the implementation was changed in #24785 to `!self + 1`. This
change had the unintended side effect of enabling debug overflow checks for the
`abs` function. Consequently, the current state of affairs is that the beta
branch checks for overflow in debug mode for `abs` and the nightly branch does
not.
This commit alters the behavior of nightly to have `abs` always check for
overflow in debug mode. This change is more consistent with the way the standard
library treats overflow as well, and it is also not a breaking change as it's
what the beta branch currently does (albeit if by accident).

Some modest running-time improvements to `std::collections::BitSet` on bit-sets of varying set-membership densities. This is work originally from [here](https://github.com/rayglover/alt_collections). (Benchmarks copied below)
```
std::collections::BitSet / alt_collections::BitSet
copy_dense ... 3.08x
copy_sparse ... 4.22x
count_dense ... 11.01x
count_sparse ... 8.11x
from_bytes ... 1.47x
intersect_dense ... 6.54x
intersect_sparse ... 4.37x
union_dense ... 5.53x
union_sparse ... 5.60x
```
The exception is `from_bytes`, which I've left unaltered since the optimization is rather obscure.
Compiling with the cpu feature `popcnt` gave a further ~10% improvement on my machine, but this wasn't factored in to the benchmarks above.
Similar improvements could be made to `BitVec`, although that would probably require more substantial changes.
criticism welcome!
This adds strictly more information to the source files and reduces the
need for customized tooling to render the book.
(While this should not change the output of _rustbook_, it is very
useful when rendering the sources with external tools like Pandoc.)
Hiiii soooo I'm trying to get the reference grammar and associated tests running again, and I swear I tested before but I must have had multiple things going on when I did, because the change I made in #25137 to verify.rs is totally wrong. The RustLexer.tokens file that antlr generates has two sections:
```
EQ=1
LT=2
LE=3
EQEQ=4
NE=5
...
COMMENT=56
SHEBANG=57
UTF8_BOM=58
'='=1
'<'=2
'<='=3
'=='=4
...
```
and verify.rs is only interested in the first half-- the `continue` is to ignore the second half. In 9c7d5ae, I made it panic instead. I was trying to make sure verify.rs handled everything that might happen in the first half and complain if it didn't. That would mean the reference grammar was out of sync with at least verify.rs, if not the real grammar. But it's totally ok for verify.rs to not handle the entire second half of the file.
I'm sorry for breaking this :( Good thing these tests aren't being run regularly yet...? 😳
Tiny fixes collected while reading through the Rust book. If they're too nitpicky please let me know and I'll ignore the next ones. :)
The spaces after the function and closure arguments might be intentional, but they do not make much sense: the usual formatting doesn't have such spaces, and they aren't helping align the three lines together either.

Fixes#23968.
Since the values are stored in a u64 internally, we need to be mask away the
high bits after applying the ! operator. Otherwise, these bits will be set to
one, causing overflow.
A built-in feature enabling the dereferencing of newtype structs was removed
in PR https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/11188, and this error (E0068) was added at the same time to warn of
its removal. It seems to make sense to remove the error now, given that
the obsolete feature it is warning about was removed nearly a year and a
half ago.
This reverts commit 9c7d5ae57c.
This was wrong... the `continue` was to ignore the latter half of the
tokens file. Another mechanism will have to be used to keep the model
grammar's tokens in sync with the actual grammar's tokens :-/

The current version of the example won't compile due to unstable features.
This is an attempt to fix that, at the cost of slightly more verbose code.
Using rust 1.0.0 (a59de37e9).
It might be obvious, but I'm not well versed with rust, so feedback is very welcome.
