#[plugin] #[no_link] extern crate bleh;
becomes a crate attribute
#![plugin(bleh)]
The feature gate is still required.
It's almost never correct to link a plugin into the resulting library /
executable, because it will bring all of libsyntax and librustc with it.
However if you really want this behavior, you can get it with a separate
`extern crate` item in addition to the `plugin` attribute.
Fixes#21043.
Fixes#20769.
[breaking-change]
This adds support for lint groups to the compiler. Lint groups are a way of
grouping a number of lints together under one name. For example, this also
defines a default lint for naming conventions, named `bad_style`. Writing
`#[allow(bad_style)]` is equivalent to writing
`#[allow(non_camel_case_types, non_snake_case, non_uppercase_statics)]`. These
lint groups can also be defined as a compiler plugin using the new
`Registry::register_lint_group` method.
This also adds two built-in lint groups, `bad_style` and `unused`. The contents
of these groups can be seen by running `rustc -W help`.
