except where trait objects are involved.
Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects.
Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we
have DST.
This will break code like:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(a);
Change this code to:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(&*a);

This was parsed by the parser but completely ignored; not even stored in
the AST!
This breaks code that looks like:
static X: &'static [u8] = &'static [1, 2, 3];
Change this code to the shorter:
static X: &'static [u8] = &[1, 2, 3];
Closes#15312.

This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes
the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental
type in the prelude by default.

This fix suppresses dead_code warnings from code generated by regex! when
the result of regex! is unused. Correct behavior should be a single
unused variable warning.
Regression tests are included for both `let` and `static` bound regex!
values.
As part of removing `pub use` glob, two extra import globs were
injected to make `quote_expr!` work. However the globs caused
`unused_import` warning in some places.
Quasiquoter needed the globs since it generated idents (e.g. `TyU`)
rather than absolute paths (`::syntax::ast::TyU`).
This patch removes the extra globs and makes quasiquoter use absolute
paths.
Fixes#14618
* All of the *_val functions have gone from #[unstable] to #[stable]
* The overwrite and zeroed functions have gone from #[unstable] to #[stable]
* The uninit function is now deprecated, replaced by its stable counterpart,
uninitialized

for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

Commits for details.
This shouldn't change the generated code at all (except for switching to `LitBinary` from an explicit ExprVec of individual ExprLit bytes for `prefix_bytes`).
char literals now work in a quotation.
There were several instances of duplicated functionality in regex_macros
compared to AstBuilder so refactor those out.
The AST doesn't need ~s everywhere, so we can save allocations this way
& the enum isn't particularly large (~4 words) nor are regexes
long (normally), so the space saved in the `Cat` vector is unlikely to
be very much.
