This is PR is the beginning of a complete rewrite and ultimate removal of the `std::num::strconv` module (see #6220), and the removal of the `ToStrRadix` trait in favour of using the `std::fmt` functionality directly. This should make for a cleaner API, encourage less allocation, and make the implementation more comprehensible .
The `Formatter::{pad_integral, with_padding}` methods have also been refactored make things easier to understand.
The formatting tests for integers have been moved out of `run-pass/ifmt.rs` in order to provide more immediate feedback when building using `make check-stage2-std NO_REBUILD=1`.
Arbitrary radixes are now easier to use in format strings. For example:
~~~rust
assert_eq!(format!("{:04}", radix(3, 2)), ~"0011");
~~~
The benchmarks have been standardised between `std::num::strconv` and `std::num::fmt` to make it easier to compare the performance of the different implementations.

You rarely want to statically link against librustc and friends, so there's no
real reason to install the rlib version of these libraries, especially because
the rlibs are massive.
This is in preparation to remove the implementations of ToStrRadix in integers, and to remove the associated logic from `std::num::strconv`.
The parts that still need to be liberated are:
- `std::fmt::Formatter::runplural`
- `num::{bigint, complex, rational}`
This works towards a complete rewrite and ultimate removal of the `std::num::strconv` module (see #6220), and the removal of the `ToStrRadix` trait in favour of using the `std::fmt` functionality directly. This should make for a cleaner API, encourage less allocation, and make the implementation far more comprehensible.
The `Formatter::pad_integral` method has also been refactored make it easier to understand.

ptr::RawPtr, spell out units used for the `offset` argument.
spell out units used for the `offset` argument, so that callers do not
try to scale to byte units themselves.
(this was originally landed in PR #11002 for the stand-alone functions, but that PR did not modify the `RawPtr` methods, since that had no doc at all at the time. Now `RawPtr` has the *only* documentation for `offset`, since the stand-alone functions went away in PR #12167 / PR #12248.)
Previously an `unsafe` block created by the compiler (like those in the
formatting macros) would be "ignored" if surrounded by `unsafe`, that
is, the internal unsafety would be being legitimised by the external
block:
unsafe { println!("...") } =(expansion)=> unsafe { ... unsafe { ... } }
And the code in the inner block would be using the outer block, making
it considered used (and the inner one considered unused).
This patch forces the compiler to create a new unsafe context for
compiler generated blocks, so that their internal unsafety doesn't
escape to external blocks.
Fixes#12418.
The comments say that the prelude imports std::io::println since it would
be annoying to have to import it in every program that uses it. However,
the prelude doesn't actually import that function anymore. So, update the
comments to better match reality.
This first part of my attempts to fix#11432.
In this one I only set NonCamelCaseTypes to warn by default and tried to fix errors that were reported by `make check`.
Please feel free to let me know if I missed something or didn't do it the right way.
Thanks.

Moved #[allow(non_camel_case_types)] a level higher.
markdown.rs reverted
Fixed timer that was failing tests
Fixed another timer
Travis CI provides an easy-to-use continuous integration infrastructure for
github repos to use. Travis will automatically test all PRs which are opened
against the rust repository, informing PR owners of the test results.
I believe that this will be a very convenient piece of infrastructure as we'll
be able to reduce the load on bors quite a bit. In theory all PRs opened have
had the full test suite run against them, but unfortunately this is rarely the
case (I'm a prime suspect). Travis will be able to provide easy and relatively
quick (~30min) feedback for PRs. By ensuring fewer failures on bors, we can
hopefully feed more successful jobs to bors.
Overall, I expect this to be very helpful for new contributors as well as
regular contributors as it's another layer of tests being run which will
hopefully catch things sooner. One of the most convenient parts about using
Travis is that there's very little burden in terms of maintenance, and if things
go wrong we can easily turn travis completely off.
Note that this is *not* the metric by which a PR will be merged with. Using
travis will purely be another source for running tests, we will continue to gate
all PRs on bors.
LLVM's tools are not contained in the local directory if --llvm-root is used by

The first commit improves error messages during linking, and the second commit improves error messages during crate-loading time.

This commit rewrites crate loading internally in attempt to look at less
metadata and provide nicer errors. The loading is now split up into a few
stages:
1. Collect a mapping of (hash => ~[Path]) for a set of candidate libraries for a
given search. The hash is the hash in the filename and the Path is the
location of the library in question. All candidates are filtered based on
their prefix/suffix (dylib/rlib appropriate) and then the hash/version are
split up and are compared (if necessary).
This means that if you're looking for an exact hash of library you don't have
to open up the metadata of all libraries named the same, but also in your
path.
2. Once this mapping is constructed, each (hash, ~[Path]) pair is filtered down
to just a Path. This is necessary because the same rlib could show up twice
in the path in multiple locations. Right now the filenames are based on just
the crate id, so this could be indicative of multiple version of a crate
during one crate_id lifetime in the path. If multiple duplicate crates are
found, an error is generated.
3. Now that we have a mapping of (hash => Path), we error on multiple versions
saying that multiple versions were found. Only if there's one (hash => Path)
pair do we actually return that Path and its metadata.
With this restructuring, it restructures code so errors which were assertions
previously are now first-class errors. Additionally, this should read much less
metadata with lots of crates of the same name or same version in a path.

This "bubble up an error" macro was originally named if_ok! in order to get it
landed, but after the fact it was discovered that this name is not exactly
desirable.
The name `if_ok!` isn't immediately clear that is has much to do with error
handling, and it doesn't look fantastic in all contexts (if if_ok!(...) {}). In
general, the agreed opinion about `if_ok!` is that is came in as subpar.
The name `try!` is more invocative of error handling, it's shorter by 2 letters,
and it looks fitting in almost all circumstances. One concern about the word
`try!` is that it's too invocative of exceptions, but the belief is that this
will be overcome with documentation and examples.

I just started learning Rust and the absence of an explanation of the for-loop in the beginning really bugged me about the tutorial. Hence I simply added these lines, where I would have expected them. I know that there is something later on in the section on traits. However, this simple iteration scheme feels like something that you should be aware of right away.

One of the most common ways to use the stdin stream is to read it line by line
for a small program. In order to facilitate this common usage pattern, this
commit changes the stdin() function to return a BufferedReader by default. A new
`stdin_raw()` method was added to get access to the raw unbuffered stream.
I have not changed the stdout or stderr methods because they are currently
unable to flush in their destructor, but #12403 should have just fixed that.
The new methodology can be found in the re-worded comment, but the gist of it is
that -C prefer-dynamic doesn't turn off static linkage. The error messages
should also be a little more sane now.

The fairness yield mistakenly called `Local::take()` which meant that it would
only work if a local task was available. In theory sending on a channel (or calling try_recv) requires
no runtime because it never blocks, so there's no reason it shouldn't support
such a use case.
Closes#12391
I don't think `extra` is a good/meaningful name for a library. `libextra` should disappear, and we move all of its sub modules out of it. This PR is just one of that steps: move `extra::test` to `libtest`.
I didn't add `libtest` to doc index, because it's an internal library currently.
**Update:**
All comments addressed. All tests passed. Rebased and squashed.
On windows, the GetEnvironmentVariable function will return the necessary buffer
size if the buffer provided was too small. This case previously fell through the
checks inside of fill_utf16_buf_and_decode, tripping an assertion in the `slice`
method.
This adds an extra case for when the return value is >= the buffer size, in
which case we assume the return value as the new buffer size and try again.
Closes#12376
