This commit renames a number of extension traits for slices and string
slices, now that they have been refactored for DST. In many cases,
multiple extension traits could now be consolidated. Further
consolidation will be possible with generalized where clauses.
The renamings are consistent with the [new `-Prelude`
suffix](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/344). There are probably
a few more candidates for being renamed this way, but that is left for
API stabilization of the relevant modules.
Because this renames traits, it is a:

However, I do not expect any code that currently uses the standard
library to actually break.

Unicode characters and strings.
Use `\u0080`-`\u00ff` instead. ASCII/byte literals are unaffected.
This PR introduces a new function, `escape_default`, into the ASCII
module. This was necessary for the pretty printer to continue to
function.

As part of the collections reform RFC, this commit removes all collections
traits in favor of inherent methods on collections themselves. All methods
should continue to be available on all collections.
This is a breaking change with all of the collections traits being removed and
no longer being in the prelude. In order to update old code you should move the
trait implementations to inherent implementations directly on the type itself.
Note that some traits had default methods which will also need to be implemented
to maintain backwards compatibility.

cc #18424
This PR changes the signature of several methods from `foo(self, ...)` to
`foo(&self, ...)`/`foo(&mut self, ...)`, but there is no breakage of the usage
of these methods due to the autoref nature of `method.call()`s. This PR also
removes the lifetime parameter from some traits (`Trait<'a>` -> `Trait`). These
changes break any use of the extension traits for generic programming, but
those traits are not meant to be used for generic programming in the first
place. In the whole rust distribution there was only one misuse of a extension
trait as a bound, which got corrected (the bound was unnecessary and got
removed) as part of this PR.

This change is an implementation of [RFC 69][rfc] which adds a third kind of
global to the language, `const`. This global is most similar to what the old
`static` was, and if you're unsure about what to use then you should use a
`const`.
The semantics of these three kinds of globals are:
* A `const` does not represent a memory location, but only a value. Constants
are translated as rvalues, which means that their values are directly inlined
at usage location (similar to a #define in C/C++). Constant values are, well,
constant, and can not be modified. Any "modification" is actually a
modification to a local value on the stack rather than the actual constant
itself.
Almost all values are allowed inside constants, whether they have interior
mutability or not. There are a few minor restrictions listed in the RFC, but
they should in general not come up too often.
* A `static` now always represents a memory location (unconditionally). Any
references to the same `static` are actually a reference to the same memory
location. Only values whose types ascribe to `Sync` are allowed in a `static`.
This restriction is in place because many threads may access a `static`
concurrently. Lifting this restriction (and allowing unsafe access) is a
future extension not implemented at this time.
* A `static mut` continues to always represent a memory location. All references
to a `static mut` continue to be `unsafe`.
This is a large breaking change, and many programs will need to be updated
accordingly. A summary of the breaking changes is:
* Statics may no longer be used in patterns. Statics now always represent a
memory location, which can sometimes be modified. To fix code, repurpose the
matched-on-`static` to a `const`.
static FOO: uint = 4;
match n {
FOO => { /* ... */ }
_ => { /* ... */ }
}
change this code to:
const FOO: uint = 4;
match n {
FOO => { /* ... */ }
_ => { /* ... */ }
}
* Statics may no longer refer to other statics by value. Due to statics being
able to change at runtime, allowing them to reference one another could
possibly lead to confusing semantics. If you are in this situation, use a
constant initializer instead. Note, however, that statics may reference other
statics by address, however.
* Statics may no longer be used in constant expressions, such as array lengths.
This is due to the same restrictions as listed above. Use a `const` instead.

Closes#17718
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/246
The tables in libunicode are far too large to want to be inlined into any other
program, so these tables are all going to remain `static`. For them to be legal,
they cannot reference one another by value, but instead use references now.
This commit also modifies the src/etc/unicode.py script to generate the right
tables.
This unifies the `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints
into one lint, `non_snake_case`. It also now checks for non-snake-case modules.
This also extends the non-camel-case types lint to check type parameters, and
merges the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` lint into the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint.
Because the `uppercase_variables` lint is now part of the `non_snake_case`
lint, all non-snake-case variables that start with lowercase characters (such
as `fooBar`) will now trigger the `non_snake_case` lint.
New code should be updated to use the new `non_snake_case` lint instead of the
previous `non_snake_case_functions` and `uppercase_variables` lints. All use of
the `non_uppercase_pattern_statics` should be replaced with the
`non_uppercase_statics` lint. Any code that previously contained non-snake-case
module or variable names should be updated to use snake case names or disable
the `non_snake_case` lint. Any code with non-camel-case type parameters should
be changed to use camel case or disable the `non_camel_case_types` lint.

These are like the existing bsearch methods but if the search fails,
it returns the next insertion point.
The new `binary_search` returns a `BinarySearchResult` that is either
`Found` or `NotFound`. For convenience, the `found` and `not_found`
methods convert to `Option`, ala `Result`.
Deprecate bsearch and bsearch_elem.
ImmutableVector -> ImmutableSlice
ImmutableEqVector -> ImmutableEqSlice
ImmutableOrdVector -> ImmutableOrdSlice
MutableVector -> MutableSlice
MutableVectorAllocating -> MutableSliceAllocating
MutableCloneableVector -> MutableCloneableSlice
MutableOrdVector -> MutableOrdSlice
These are all in the prelude so most code will not break.

This makes edge cases in which the `Iterator` trait was not in scope
and/or `Option` or its variants were not in scope work properly.
This breaks code that looks like:
struct MyStruct { ... }
impl MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
for x in MyStruct { ... } { ... }
Change ad-hoc `next` methods like the above to implementations of the
`Iterator` trait. For example:
impl Iterator<int> for MyStruct {
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<int> { ... }
}
Closes#15392.

- Graphemes and GraphemeIndices structs implement iterators over
grapheme clusters analogous to the Chars and CharOffsets for chars in
a string. Iterator and DoubleEndedIterator are available for both.
- tidied up the exports for libunicode. crate root exports are now moved
into more appropriate module locations:
- UnicodeStrSlice, Words, Graphemes, GraphemeIndices are in str module
- UnicodeChar exported from char instead of crate root
- canonical_combining_class is exported from str rather than crate root
Since libunicode's exports have changed, programs that previously relied
on the old export locations will need to change their `use` statements
to reflect the new ones. See above for more information on where the new
exports live.

- created new crate, libunicode, below libstd
- split Char trait into Char (libcore) and UnicodeChar (libunicode)
- Unicode-aware functions now live in libunicode
- is_alphabetic, is_XID_start, is_XID_continue, is_lowercase,
is_uppercase, is_whitespace, is_alphanumeric, is_control,
is_digit, to_uppercase, to_lowercase
- added width method in UnicodeChar trait
- determines printed width of character in columns, or None if it is
a non-NULL control character
- takes a boolean argument indicating whether the present context is
CJK or not (characters with 'A'mbiguous widths are double-wide in
CJK contexts, single-wide otherwise)
- split StrSlice into StrSlice (libcore) and UnicodeStrSlice
(libunicode)
- functionality formerly in StrSlice that relied upon Unicode
functionality from Char is now in UnicodeStrSlice
- words, is_whitespace, is_alphanumeric, trim, trim_left, trim_right
- also moved Words type alias into libunicode because words method is
in UnicodeStrSlice
- unified Unicode tables from libcollections, libcore, and libregex into
libunicode
- updated unicode.py in src/etc to generate aforementioned tables
- generated new tables based on latest Unicode data
- added UnicodeChar and UnicodeStrSlice traits to prelude
- libunicode is now the collection point for the std::char module,
combining the libunicode functionality with the Char functionality
from libcore
- thus, moved doc comment for char from core::char to unicode::char
- libcollections remains the collection point for std::str
The Unicode-aware functions that previously lived in the Char and
StrSlice traits are no longer available to programs that only use
libcore. To regain use of these methods, include the libunicode crate
and use the UnicodeChar and/or UnicodeStrSlice traits:
extern crate unicode;
use unicode::UnicodeChar;
use unicode::UnicodeStrSlice;
use unicode::Words; // if you want to use the words() method
NOTE: this does *not* impact programs that use libstd, since UnicodeChar
and UnicodeStrSlice have been added to the prelude.
