This builds on #5909. I've been combing through the pipes code to understand it and started refactoring a bit.
* Removes pipes::spawn_* functions. These are not particularly useful since they deal with low-level pipes types.
* Inlines the protocol-compiled definitions of `oneshot` and `streamp`. These are the only two uses of the protocol compiler in core and I'm inlining them so I can understand what they are doing as I work on pipes. I may un-inline them in the future.
* Removes redundant functions from core::comm
* Change the constructors to use the `new` convention
Like I commented in #2043, I can't reproduce the weirdness from #1388 on either mac or linux (x84_64) and pushing to try gives all green.
That's 128 less bytes to have to keep in the stack for every call to __morestack.
`read_until` is just doing a bytewise comparison. This means the following program prints `xyå12`, not `xy`, which it should if it was actually checking chars.
```rust
fn main() {
do io::with_str_reader("xyå12") |r| {
io::println(r.read_until('å', false));
}
}
```
This patch makes the type of read_until match what it is actually doing.
This is just a bunch of minor changes and simplifications to the structure of core::rt. It makes ownership of the ~Scheduler more strict (though it is still mutably aliased sometimes), turns the scheduler cleanup_jobs vector into just a single job, shunts the thread-local scheduler code off to its own file.
This pull request changes the representation of identifiers by adding an integer to the side of each one. This integer will eventually be a reference to a side-table of syntax contexts, presumably stored in TLS. This pull request also adds a bunch of utility functions required for hygiene, and associated tests, but doesn't actually deploy those functions.
Finally, it also has a number of small cleanup items.
This is a test file containing examples of commands that should
succeed. When we write the test runner, we will have to figure
out how to automate them.

This doesn't completely fix the x86 ABI for structs, but it does fix some cases. On linux, structs appear to be returned correctly now. On windows, structs are only returned by pointer when they are greater than 8 bytes. That scenario works now.
In the case where the struct is less than 8 bytes our generated code looks peculiar. When returning a pair of u16, C packs both variables into %eax to return them. Our generated code though expects to find one of the pair in %ax and the other in %dx. Similar for u8. I haven't looked into it yet.
There appears to also be struct passing problems on linux, where my `extern-pass-TwoU8s` and `extern-pass-TwoU16s` tests are failing.
