floating point numbers for real.
This will break code that looks like:
let mut x = 0;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Change that code to:
let mut x = 0i;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Closes#15201.

Implement the stronger guarantees for mutable borrows from #12624. This
removes the ability to read from a mutably borrowed path for the
duration of the borrow, and enforces a unique access path for any
mutable borrow, for both reads and writes.
This makes mutable borrows work better with concurrent accesses from
multiple threads, and it opens the door for allowing moves out of
mutably borrowed values, as long as a new value is written before the
mutable borrow ends. This also aligns Rust more closely with academic
languages based on substructural types and separation logic.
The most common situation triggering an error after this change is a
call to a function mutably borrowing self with self.field as one of the
arguments. The workaround is to bind self.field to a temporary, but the
need for these temporaries will hopefully go away after #6268 is fixed.
Another situation that triggers an error is using the head expression of
a match in an arm that binds a variable with a mutable reference. The
use of the head expression needs to be replaced with an expression that
reconstructs it from match-bound variables.
This fixes#12624.

What we now do is to create a region variable for each &
expression (and also each borrow). The lifetime of this
variable will be checked by borrowck to ensure it is not greater
than the lifetime of the underlying data. This both leads to
shorter lifetimes in some cases but also longer in others,
such as taking the address to the interior of unique boxes
tht are rooted in region pointers (e.g., returning a pointer
to the interior of a sendable map).
This may lead to issue #2977 if the rvalue is not POD, because
we may drop the data in trans sooner than borrowck expects us
to. Need to work out precisely where that fix ought to occur.
