The trait has an obvious, sensible implementation directly on vectors so
the MemWriter wrapper is unnecessary. This will halt the trend towards
providing all of the vector methods on MemWriter along with eliminating
the noise caused by conversions between the two types. It also provides
the useful default Writer methods on Vec<u8>.
After the type is removed and code has been migrated, it would make
sense to add a new implementation of MemWriter with seeking support. The
simple use cases can be covered with vectors alone, and ones with the
need for seeks can use a new MemWriter implementation.

Came up on IRC that this was a bit unhelpful as to what should actually be *done*. I am new to changing compiler messages, please let me know if there's anything else that needs to be done to accomadate this change.
(My build system is still constantly crashing [Is bors contagious?], so this hasn't been formally `check`ed. I figure it's a simple enough change that any consequences [like compile-fail expected messages?] can be eyeballed by someone more experienced.)
`slice_shift_char` splits a `str` into it's leading `char` and the remainder of the `str`. Currently, it returns a `(Option<char>, &str)` such that:
"bar".slice_shift_char() => (Some('b'), "ar")
"ar".slice_shift_char() => (Some('a'), "r")
"r".slice_shift_char() => (Some('r'), "")
"".slice_shift_char() => (None, "")
This is a little odd. Either a `str` can be split into both a head and a tail or it cannot. So the return type should be `Option<(char, &str)>`. With the current behaviour, in the case of the empty string, the `str` returned is meaningless - it is always the empty string.
This PR changes `slice_shift_char` so that:
"bar".slice_shift_char() => Some(('b', "ar"))
"ar".slice_shift_char() => Some(('a', "r"))
"r".slice_shift_char() => Some(('r', ""))
"".slice_shift_char() => None
Following [the collections reform RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/235), this PR:
* Adds a new `borrow` module to libcore. The module contains traits for borrowing data (`BorrowFrom` and `BorrowFromMut`), generalized cloning (`ToOwned`), and a clone-on-write smartpointer (`Cow`).
* Deprecates the `_equiv` family of methods on `HashMap` and `HashSet` by instead generalizing the "normal" methods like `get` and `remove` to use the new `std::borrow` infrastructure.
* Generalizes `TreeMap`, `TreeSet`, `BTreeMap` and `BTreeSet` to use the new `std::borrow` infrastructure for lookups.

This is especially useful for declaring a static with external linkage in an executable. There isn't any way to do that currently since we mark everything in an executable as internal by default.
Also, a quick fix to have the no-compiler-rt target option respected when building staticlibs as well.
groundwork for better performance.
Key points:
- Separate out determining which method to use from actually selecting
a method (this should enable caching, as well as the pcwalton fast-reject strategy).
- Merge the impl selection back into method resolution and don't rely on
trait matching (this should perform better but also is needed to resolve some
kind of conflicts, see e.g. `method-two-traits-distinguished-via-where-clause.rs`)
- Purge a lot of out-of-date junk and coercions from method lookups.
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;
}

The examples in the documentation for syntax::ext::deriving::encodable
are outdated, and do not work. To fix this, the following changes are
applied:
- emit_field() -> emit_struct_field()
- read_field() -> read_struct_field()
- Use Result to report errors
- Add the mut keyword to Encoder/Decoder
- Prefer Encodable::encode() to emit_uint
This implements a considerable portion of rust-lang/rfcs#369 (tracked in #18640). Some interpretations had to be made in order to get this to work. The breaking changes are listed below:
[breaking-change]
- `core::num::{Num, Unsigned, Primitive}` have been deprecated and their re-exports removed from the `{std, core}::prelude`.
- `core::num::{Zero, One, Bounded}` have been deprecated. Use the static methods on `core::num::{Float, Int}` instead. There is no equivalent to `Zero::is_zero`. Use `(==)` with `{Float, Int}::zero` instead.
- `Signed::abs_sub` has been moved to `std::num::FloatMath`, and is no longer implemented for signed integers.
- `core::num::Signed` has been removed, and its methods have been moved to `core::num::Float` and a new trait, `core::num::SignedInt`. The methods now take the `self` parameter by value.
- `core::num::{Saturating, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub, CheckedMul, CheckedDiv}` have been removed, and their methods moved to `core::num::Int`. Their parameters are now taken by value. This means that
- `std::time::Duration` no longer implements `core::num::{Zero, CheckedAdd, CheckedSub}` instead defining the required methods non-polymorphically.
- `core::num::{zero, one, abs, signum}` have been deprecated. Use their respective methods instead.
- The `core::num::{next_power_of_two, is_power_of_two, checked_next_power_of_two}` functions have been deprecated in favor of methods defined a new trait, `core::num::UnsignedInt`
- `core::iter::{AdditiveIterator, MultiplicativeIterator}` are now only implemented for the built-in numeric types.
- `core::iter::{range, range_inclusive, range_step, range_step_inclusive}` now require `core::num::Int` to be implemented for the type they a re parametrized over.
Adds a method for printing a fatal error and also a help message to the
parser and uses this in a variety of places to improve error messages.
Closes#12213.
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`
