This adds a few words about unit-like struct types (`struct Foo;`) in the sections for `struct` items, structure expressions and structure types (and fixes an adjacent typo or two). The added text is at the same time triply redundant because of how the sections are split and rather brief because I don't think there's that much to say about field-less structs without digressing into `impl`s and generic functions and whatnot, but it's probably better than nothing for a start.
The added arm for the grammar of struct expressions is really awkward. It's just
| expr_path
which is clearly not unambiguously a struct expression, but it didn't feel right not to add anything to the grammar chunk (and I can't tell whether the arm for enum-like structs is somehow unambiguous with regular enum expressions, either). Is this okay?
This changes various type_names to TypeNames and fixes the example for `tcp::accept` that was still using the old `match` syntax and `{|args| ...}` closures.
The `accept` example was fairly outdated. I was just going to stay away from all the IO things until the scheduler revamp lands, but `accept` is probably one of the obvious starting points for networking stuff for a learner, and I don't want to get in the way of anyone's enthusiasm.
Doesn't touch non-comment lines, so I hope I will get away without learning about unit tests. It doesn't seem like the test system is set up to extract tests from doc comments right now.
- Removed space between struct name and parentheses
- Fixed indentation of the rest of the file (missing end)
- Don't print parentheses for structs with no fields
- Added test
The "Generic functions" subsection mentions that generic functions are
instantiated based on context, so let's also mention right away (with a
link to the #paths section) that an explicit form is available.
This also adds an example to the function call expression section that
explicitly instantiates a generic function.

This fixes the current [random failures](http://buildbot.rust-lang.org/builders/auto-linux/builds/291/steps/test/logs/stdio) on the bots and closes#4436 by removing `unwrap_shared_mutable_state` and the code that depends on it. The result is that ARC-like things will not be unwrappable. This feature is complex and is not used outside of test cases.
Note that there is not consensus to remove it.
(second commit)
The first two commits are the actual fix going into place, and the last is just dealing with the fallout in the rest of the compiler.
The test added in the first two commits had 0 failures before this patch, and if the glob imports were changed to explicit imports then the errors showed up. Due to this behavior, I figured that the desired behavior was for glob imports to not accidentally leak a lot of non-public imports/functions/types into other modules.
There was quite a lot of fallout, and it all passes `make check` locally, but I doubt that it will pass on all platforms because there's probably some guarded off thing I missed.
I plan on making another patch soon which changes the default level of `unused_imports` to `warn` which will hopefully reduce a lot of the `use` noise throughout. In conjunction with #5104, and a few minor fixes, I think that the default level of `warn` is actually really usable.
The basic idea is that we add a new kind of adjustment, AutoAddEnv, that pads
an extern fn into a closure by adding the extra NULL word. Then there are a few
misc changes in trans to get the LLVM types to match up.
Fixes#4808.
