This implements RFC 179 by making the pattern `&<pat>` require matching
against a variable of type `&T`, and introducing the pattern `&mut
<pat>` which only works with variables of type `&mut T`.
The pattern `&mut x` currently parses as `&(mut x)` i.e. a pattern match
through a `&T` or a `&mut T` that binds the variable `x` to have type
`T` and to be mutable. This should be rewritten as follows, for example,
for &mut x in slice.iter() {
becomes
for &x in slice.iter() {
let mut x = x;
Due to this, this is a
[breaking-change]

This commit introduces the syntax for negative implementations of traits
as shown below:
`impl !Trait for Type {}`

This "reexports" all the functionality of `core::char::CharExt` as
methods on `unicode::u_char::UnicodeChar` (renamed to `CharExt`).
Imports may need to be updated (one now just imports
`unicode::CharExt`, or `std::char::CharExt` rather than two traits from
either), so this is a
[breaking-change]
TODOs:
- ~~Entry is still `<'a, K, V>` instead of `<'a, O, V>`~~
- ~~BTreeMap is still outstanding~~.
- ~~Transform appropriate things into `.entry(...).get().or_else(|e| ...)`~~
Things that make me frowny face:
- I'm not happy about the fact that this `clone`s the key even when it's already owned.
- With small keys (e.g. `int`s), taking a reference seems wasteful.

code. Previously we were creating a subtyping relation in the wrong
direction. We now just unify types, which is stronger than necessary
but turns out fine.
Fixes#19552.
Fixes#19997.
Use autoderef for call notation. This is consistent in that we now autoderef all postfix operators (`.`, `[]`, and `()`). It also means you can call closures without writing `(*f)()`. Note that this is rebased atop the rollup, so only the final commit is relevant.

After 8b3c67690c the `make install`
command fails if docs are not disabled through CFG_DISABLE_DOCS,
because now the `install` target uses
../../tmp/dist/$(DOC_PKG_NAME)-$(CFG_BUILD)/install.sh
Instead of explicitly depending on
dist/$(PKG_NAME)-$(CFG_BUILD).tar.gz, the `prepare_[un]install`
targets now depend on `dist-tar-bins`, which packages the appropriate
dist archives depending on the configuration.
