A most trivial documentation correction. The examples in the intro are all about adding to the end of the array, not the beginning, but this one line says "prepend".
This isn't a very serious problem, it just made me a bit confused when I got to it.
This PR includes a sequence of commits that gradually dismantles the `librustrt` `rtio` system -- the main trait previously used to abstract over green and native io. It also largely dismantles `libnative`, moving much of its code into `libstd` and refactoring as it does so.
TL;DR:
* Before this PR: `rustc hello.rs && wc -c hello` produces 715,996
* After this PR: `rustc hello.rs && wc -c hello` produces 368,100
That is, this PR reduces the footprint of hello world by ~50%.
This is a major step toward #17325 (i.e. toward implementing the [runtime removal RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/230).) What remains is to pull out the scheduling, synchronization and task infrastructure, and to remove `libgreen`. These will be done soon in a follow-up PR.
Part of the work here is eliminating the `rtio` abstraction, which in many cases means bringing the implementation of io closer to the actual API presented in `std::io`.
Another aspect of this PR is the creation of two new, *private* modules within `std` that implement io:
* The `sys` module, which represents a platform-specific implementation of a number of low-level abstractions that are used directly within `std::io` and `std::os`. These "abstractions" are left largely the same as they were in `libnative` (except for the removal of `Arc` in file descriptors), but they are expected to evolve greatly over time. Organizationally, there are `sys/unix/` and `sys/windows/` directories which both implement the entire `sys` module hierarchy; this means that nearly all of the platform-specific code is isolated and you can get a handle on each platform in isolation.
* The `sys_common` module, which is rooted at `sys/common`, and provides a few pieces of private, low-level, but cross-platform functionality.
In the long term, the `sys` modules will provide hooks for exposing high-level platform-specific APIs as part of `libstd`. The first such API will be access to file descriptors from `std::io` abstractions, but a bit of design work remains before that step can be taken.
The `sys_common` module includes some traits (like `AsFileDesc`) which allow communication of private details between modules in disparate locations in the hierarchy; this helps overcome the relatively simple hierarchical privacy system in Rust.
To emphasize: the organization in `sys` is *very preliminary* and the main goal was to migrate away from `rtio` as quickly and simply as possible. The design will certainly evolve over time, and all of the details are currently private.
Along the way, this PR also entirely removes signal handling, since it was only supported on `librustuv` which was removed a while ago.
Because of the removal of APIs from `libnative` and `librustrt`, and the removal of signal handling, this is a:
[breaking-change]
Some of these APIs will return in public from from `std` over time.

These modules will house the code that used to be part of the runtime system
in libnative. The `sys_common` module contains a few low-level but
cross-platform details. The `sys` module is set up using `#[cfg()]` to
include either a unix or windows implementation of a common API
surface. This API surface is *not* exported directly in `libstd`, but is
instead used to bulid `std::os` and `std::io`.
Ultimately, the low-level details in `sys` will be exposed in a
controlled way through a separate platform-specific surface, but that
setup is not part of this patch.
Various miscellaneous changes pushing towards HRTB support:
1. Update parser and adjust ast to support `for<'a,'b>` syntax, both in closures and trait bounds. Warn on the old syntax (not error, for stage0).
2. Refactor TyTrait representation to include a TraitRef.
3. Purge `once_fns` feature gate and `once` keyword.
r? @pcwalton
This is a [breaking-change]:
- The `once_fns` feature is now officially deprecated. Rewrite using normal closures or unboxed closures.
- The new `for`-based syntax now issues warnings (but not yet errors):
- `fn<'a>(T) -> U` becomes `for<'a> fn(T) -> U`
- `<'a> |T| -> U` becomes `for<'a> |T| -> U`
Previously Int inherited from PartialOrd (via Primitive)
but not Ord. But integers have a total order, so
inheriting from Ord is appropriate. Fixes#18776.
`FnOnce` environments that fit within an `int` are passed to the closure by value. For some reason there was an assert that this would only happen if there were 1 or 0 free variables, but it can also happen if there are multiple variables that happen to fit.
Closes#18652
Ensured that Extend & FromIterator are implemented for the libcollection.
Removed the fact that FromIterator had to be implemented in order to implement Extend, as it did not make sense for LruCache (it needs to be given a size and there are no Default for LruCache).
Changed the name from Extend to Extendable.
Part of #18424
When establishing region links within a pattern, use the mem-cat
of the type the pattern matches against (that is, the result
of `iter.next()`) rather than that of the iterator type.

This commit implements processing these two attributes at the crate level as
well as at the item level. When #[cfg] is applied at the crate level, then the
entire crate will be omitted if the cfg doesn't match. The #[cfg_attr] attribute
is processed as usual in that the attribute is included or not depending on
whether the cfg matches.
This was spurred on by motivations of #18585 where #[cfg_attr] annotations will
be applied at the crate-level.
cc #18585
The internals of strftime were converted to use a single formatter,
instead of creating and concatenating a bunch of small strings. This
showed ~3x improvement in the benches.
Also, since the formatted time may be going straight to a Writer, TmFmt
was introduced, and is returned from all formatting methods on Tm. This
allows the saving of another string allocation. Anyone wanting a String
can just call .to_string() on the returned value.
This runs validation prior to return the created `TmFmt`, catching errors before formatting happens. The specialized formats skip this validation, since we already know they are valid.
