Non-copyability is not enforced yet, and something is still flaky with
dropping of the internal value, so don't actually use them yet. I'm
merging this in so that I don't have to keep merging against new
patches.
This involved, in part, changing the ast::def type so that a def_fn
has a "purity" field. This lets the typechecker determine whether
functions defined in other crates are pure.
It also required updating some error messages in tests. As a test
for cross-crate constrained functions, I added a safe_slice function
to std::str (slice(), with one of the asserts replaced with a
function precondition) and some test cases (various versions of
fn-constraint.rs) that call it. Also, I changed "fn" to "pred" for
some of the boolean functions in std::uint.
This will replace the various node_id-to-node mappings done in several
other passes. This commit already uses the new map in resolve, dropping
the ast_map that was built there before.
This reduces some redundancy in the AST data structures and cruft in
the code that works with them. To get a def_id from a node_id, apply
ast::local_def, which adds the local crate_num to the given node_id.
Most code only deals with crate-local node_ids, and won't have to
create def_ids at all.

Most of the fields in an AST item were present in all variants. Things
could be simplified considerably by putting them in the rec rather
than in the variant tags.
I added a "resolved" version of the ast::constr type -- ty::constr_def
-- that has a def_id field instead of an ann_field. This is more
consistent with other types and eliminates some checking.
Incidentally, I removed the def_map argument to the top-level function
in middle::alias, since the ty::ctxt already has a def_map field.
Since the decl in a for or for-each loop must always be a local
decl, I changed the AST to express this. Fewer potential match
failures and "the impossible happened" error messages = yay!
Generate appropriate constraints for calls to functions with
preconditions, and reject calls where those constraints don't
hold true in the prestate.
...by which I mean that it works for one test case :-)
The old system tried to ensure that the location an alias pointed at
would retain its type. That turned out to not be strong enough in the
face of aliases to the inside of tags.
The new system instead proves that values pointed to by aliases are
not replaced (or invalidated in some other way) at all. It knows of
two sufficient conditions for this, and tries to prove at least of
them:
A) The alias is 'immutably rooted' in a local, and this local is not
reassigned for the lifetime of the alias. Immutably rooted means
the alias refers to the local itself, or to something reachable
from the local through immutable dereferencing.
B) No value whose type might include the type of the 'inner mutable
element' of the thing the alias refers to (for example, the box in
rec(mutable x = @mutable int)) is from the outer scope is accessed
for the lifetime of the alias. This means for functions, no other
argument types may include the alias's inner mutable type. For alt,
for each, and for, it means the body does not refer to any locals
originating from outside their scope that include this type.
The lifetime of an alias in an alt, for each, or for body is defined
as the range from its definition to its last use, not to the point
where it goes out of scope. This makes working around these
restrictions somewhat less annoying. For example, you can assign to
your alt-ed value you don't refer to any bindings afterwards.
This litters aberrations like 'alt({foo.bar}) { ... }' and f({*baz})
though the code (mostly in trans.rs). These are a way to explicitly
copy the given value so that it can be safely aliased. At some point
we'll probably want a more explicit copy operator.
The error message for (for example) "import vec;" without "use std;"
was "cyclic import", which was misleading because there were no
cycles. I changed it to "cyclic import or nonexistent module",
which doesn't break existing tests.
