fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
its own type. Use a bitset to represent built-in bounds. There
are several places in the language where only builtin bounds (aka kinds)
will be accepted, e.g. on closures, destructor type parameters perhaps,
and on trait types.
signature. In a nutshell, the idea is to (1) report an error if, for
a region pointer `'a T`, the lifetime `'a` is longer than any
lifetimes that appear in `T` (in other words, if a borrowed pointer
outlives any portion of its contents) and then (2) use this to assume
that in a function like `fn(self: &'a &'b T)`, the relationship `'a <=
'b` holds. This is needed for #5656. Fixes#5728.
- In a TraitRef, use the self type consistently to refer to the Self type:
- trait ref in `impl Trait<A,B,C> for S` has a self type of `S`.
- trait ref in `A:Trait` has the self type `A`
- trait ref associated with a trait decl has self type `Self`
- trait ref associated with a supertype has self type `Self`
- trait ref in an object type `@Trait` has no self type
- Rewrite `each_bound_traits_and_supertraits` to perform
substitutions as it goes, and thus yield a series of trait refs
that are always in the same 'namespace' as the type parameter
bound given as input. Before, we left this to the caller, but
this doesn't work because the caller lacks adequare information
to perform the type substitutions correctly.
- For provided methods, substitute the generics involved in the provided
method correctly.
- Introduce TypeParameterDef, which tracks the bounds declared on a type
parameter and brings them together with the def_id and (in the future)
other information (maybe even the parameter's name!).
- Introduce Subst trait, which helps to cleanup a lot of the
repetitive code involved with doing type substitution.
- Introduce Repr trait, which makes debug printouts far more convenient.
Fixes#4183. Needed for #5656.
bare function store (which is not in fact a kind of value) but rather
ty::TraitRef. Removes many uses of fail!() and other telltale signs of
type-semantic mismatch.
cc #4183 (not a fix, but related)
Various FIXME comments added around to denote copies which when removed cause
the compiler to segfault at some point before stage2. None of these copies
should even be necessary.

values to be copied. Rewrite kind computation so that instead of directly
computing the kind it computes what kinds of values are present in the type,
and then derive kinds based on that. I find this easier to think about.
Fixes#4821.
LinearMap is quite a bit faster, and is fully owned/sendable without
requiring copies. The older std::map also doesn't use explicit self and
relies on mutable fields.
