Macro scope is now delimited by function, block, and module boundaries,
except for modules that are marked with #[macro_escape], which allows
macros to escape.
This is a natural extension of #4887, and handles the following three cases:
~~~~
a line with only /s
////////////////////////////////////////////
a line with only /s followed by whitespace
////////////////////////////////////////////
a block comment with only *s between two /s
/********************************/

It looks to me like the string_reader and tt_reader structs are
GC pointers only because they predate the modern borrow system.
This commit leaves the type names string_reader and tt_reader alone
(they still refer to GC-ed pointers), but internally the functions
now use borrowed pointers to refer to these structures. My guess
would be that it's possible to move this change outward and not
use the GCed pointers at all, but that change looks like it could be
a larger one. Actually, I'm delighted at how quick this change was.

- Moved ToStr implementation of unsigned integers to uint-template.rs.
- Marked the `str()` function as deprecated.
- Forwarded all conversion functions to `core::num::to_str_common()`
and `core::num::from_str_common()`.
- Fixed most places in the codebase where `to_str()` is being used.
- Added uint-template to_str and from_str overflow tests.
"Dual impls" are impls that are both type implementations and trait
implementations. They can lead to ambiguity and so this patch removes them
from the language.
This also enforces coherence rules. Without this patch, records can implement
traits not defined in the current crate. This patch fixes this, and updates
all of rustc to adhere to the new enforcement. Most of this patch is fixing
rustc to obey the coherence rules, which involves converting a bunch of records
to structs.
This will help with the auto_serialize2 migration. We have to change
ident from a type alias to uint into a unique type. We need to use
a struct instead of a "enum ident = token::str_num" because structs
support constants, but newtypes do not.
