Update to the Rusty rust-installer
This updates the rust-installer submodule to the new version written in Rust (rust-lang/rust-installer#62), now moved to `src/tools/rust-installer` and invoked in `dist.rs` as a cargo-based tool command. All of the former shell-script invocations now invoke the tool, otherwise keeping the same arguments as before.
As a small bonus, `rustc-src` now also uses the same tarball generator, so it gains a smaller `.tar.xz` too.
Fixes#41569. r? @alexcrichton
linkchecker: Add support for <base> tag
Add support for the HTML <base> tag as used by mdBook so The Unstable
Book can be checked.
Also cleanup a few things:
* Stop checking the name attribute. It should never have been used and
mdBook has since been fixed not to use it.
* Make sure we only check html files.
* Remove a few unnecessary allocations.
Finally, dead links in The Unstable Book have been fixed.
This does not actually improve build times, since it still depends
on rustc_trans, but is better layering and fits the multi-backend
future slightly better.
Consequently, session creation can no longer initialize LLVM.
The few places that use the compiler without going through
rustc_driver/CompilerCalls thus need to be careful to manually
initialize LLVM (via rustc_trans!) immediately after session
creation.
This means librustc is not rebuilt when LLVM changes.
fix confusion about parts required for float formatting
The documentation for flt2dec doesn't match up with the actual
implementation, so fix the documentation to align with reality.
Presumably due to the mismatch, the formatting code for floats in
std::fmt can use correspondingly shorter arrays in some places, so fix
those places up as well.
Fixes#41304.
There's no shell interpreting the file paths under the new Rusty
rust-installer, so we don't need to use `sanitize_sh` for it. Plus,
the drive-letter transformation is actually harmful for the now-native
Windows rust-installer to understand those paths.
Make diagnostic note for existing method with unsatisfied trait bounds
multiline for cleaner output.
```
= note: the method `count` exists but the following trait bounds were not satisfied:
`[closure@../../src/test/compile-fail/issue-36053-2.rs:17:39: 17:53] : std::ops::FnMut<(&_,)>`
`std::iter::Filter<std::iter::Fuse<std::iter::Once<&str>> [closure@../../src/test/compile-fail/issue-36053-2.rs:17:39: 17:53]> : std::iter::Iterator`

Move the code for loading metadata from rlibs and dylibs from
rustc_metadata into rustc_trans, and introduce a trait to avoid
introducing a direct dependency on rustc_trans.
This means rustc_metadata is no longer rebuilt when LLVM changes.
Part of #29378 .
- In particular explains *why* we would use the builder instead of
the free function.
- Changes the parent-child explanation for a spawned-caller.
- Add link to `io::Result` in `thread::Builder`
- Corrects the `thread::Builder::spawn` documentation.

Update RLS to solve serious crash
As a follow-up to rust-lang-nursery/rls#312, this PR contains the fix to the latest experienced RLS crashes, which should hopefully reach the nightly release as soon as possible.
LLVM: Add support for EABI-compliant libcalls on MSP430.
This change will allow rust code to have proper support for division
and multiplication using libgcc.

Disallow ._ in float literal.
This patch makes lexer stop parsing number literals before `._`, as well as before `.a`. Underscore itself is still allowed like in `4_000_000.000_000_`.
Fixes a half part of #41723. The other is `""_`.
rustc_resolve: don't deny outer type parameters in embedded constants.
This solves a problem noted at https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/29646#issuecomment-300929548, where an associated const default in a trait couldn't refer to `Self` or type parameters, due to inaccuracies in lexical scoping.
I've also allowed "embedded expressions" (`[T; expr]`, `[x; expr]`, `typeof expr`) to refer to type parameters in scope. *However*, the typesystem still doesn't handle #34344.
Fully resolving that issue requires breaking cycles more aggressively (e.g. lazy evaluation), *even* in when the expression doesn't depend on type parameters, to type-check it at all, and then also type-level "constant projections" (in the vein of `{expr}` from const generics).
Added generic example of std::ops::Add in doc comments
We discussed on IRC how the std::ops examples were potentially missing examples using generics. This PR adds an example to std::ops::Add that shows the use of a generic type T. I'm not sure this is ready for merge as I think the two examples now make the documentation a bit verbose, but I think it's a good starting point. I'd love to hear others thoughts on this. This is in relation to the last item in issue #29365.
rustc: simpler ParameterEnvironment and free regions.
The commits describe the slow transformation but the highlights are:
* `ReEarlyBound` is considered free, with a scope based on the item that defined the lifetime parameter, and the root body of the `RegionMaps` in use, removing the need for `free_substs`
* `liberate_late_bound_regions` and `implicit_region_bound` moved to typeck
* `CodeExtent` not interned at all now - ideally it would be 2 `u32` but it's small anyway
Future work building up on this could include:
* `ParameterEnvironment` becoming just the result of `predicates_of`
* interning makes my "parent chain" scheme unnecessary
* `implicit_region_bound` could be retrieved from `RegionMaps`
* renaming `CodeExtent` to `Scope`
* generalizing "call site" to "use site" or something better to include constants
* renaming `RegionMaps` to `ScopeTree` and its API to talk about "parents" explicitly
