`let v = [24, ..1000];` now more or less emits the same IR as:
```Rust
let mut i = 0;
while i < 1000 {
v[i] = 24;
i += 1;
}
```
LLVM will still turn it into a memset if possible with optimization on.
The reasoning for doing it this way is that it's much easier to transition method-by-method to the `Map` API than trying to do the migration all at once.
I found an issue unrelated to my changes in one of the run-fail tests - if it uses `LinearMap`, it still fails but exits with 0. I xfailed it for now and opened [an issue](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/5512), because it's not caused by these changes.
r?
There are a lot of commits here, but not all that much substance. Mostly just refactoring.
I started sketching out the beginnings of a very simple I/O API in `core::rt::io` that represents I/O streams as a single `Stream` trait instead of `Reader` / `Writer` pairs. This seems to be the more common pattern (at least this is how the .NET BCL does it) and it seems to me that separate readers and writers would make duplex streams very awkward. Regardless, I don't intend to go very far down the I/O API design road without some mailing list discussion.
I've also started on the uv bindings for file I/O but haven't gotten very far.
Also hooked up the new scheduler to `rust_start` and the compiletest driver. 70% of run-pass test cases already pass, but I wouldn't read too much into that.
I also split the direct, low-level uv bindings in two so that the scheduler can have its own set, leaving `std::net` on its own.
As per #2521. Inlining seems to improve performance slightly:

x86_64: 17.4712 18.0696
(Average of 5 runs timed with `time`)
```Rust
fn foo() -> int {
int::from_str(~"28098").unwrap()
}
fn main() {
for 1000000.times {
foo();
foo();
foo();
foo();
foo();
}
}
```
All run on:
Linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2~bpo60+1 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The MIPS and ARM bits I didn't inline since I'm not as familiar with them and I also can't test them. All green on try.
