This change prevents the indentation in code blocks inside the /// doc comments
from being eaten. The indentation that is the same across the consecutive doc
comments is removed by the uindent_pass in librustdoc.
This allows mass-initialization of large structs without having to specify all the fields.
I'm a bit hesitant, but I wanted to get this out there. I don't really like using the `Zero` trait, because it doesn't really make sense for a type like `HashMap` to use `Zero` as the 'blank allocation' trait. In theory there'd be a new trait, but then that's adding cruft to the language which may not necessarily need to be there.
I do think that this can be useful, but I only implemented `Zero` on the basic types where I thought it made sense, so it may not be all that usable yet. (opinions?)
Moves all the remaining functions that could reasonably be methods to be methods, except for some FFI ones (which I believe @erickt is working on, possibly) and `each_split_within`, since I'm not really sure the details of it (I believe @kimundi wrote the current implementation, so maybe he could convert it to an external iterator method on `StrSlice`, e.g. `word_wrap_iter(&self) -> WordWrapIterator<'self>`, where `WordWrapIterator` impls `Iterator<&'self str>`. It probably won't be too hard, since it's already a state machine.)
This also cleans up the comparison impls for the string types, except I'm not sure how the lang items `eq_str` and `eq_str_uniq` need to be handled, so they (`eq_slice` and `eq`) remain stand-alone functions.
r? (yes, the review request is back, now that I got it building against incom... I mean master!)
(Attempting to port from orphaned pull-request #6764 )
Fix for #3961. Also includes a test case to illustrate the issues. (All of the entries that say "should align" should align with each other, and the four lines near the end that say "compare _" for _ in {A,B,C,D} should line up with each other.)
Before applying this change set:
-- the "(should align)"'s are all over the place, and the form/line feeding spaces are not cut out as one might or might not expect.
-- compare B and D do not match A and C.
(To be honest, its hard to really say what the right behavior is here, and people who are expecting a particular behavior out of a pretty printer in these cases may well get burned.)
This fixes the strange random crashes in compile-fail tests.

Previously, this was not a global call, and so when `#[deriving(Rand)]`
was in any module other than the top-level one, it failed (unless there
was a `use std;` in scope).
Also, fix a minor inconsistency between uints and u32s for this piece
of code.
This almost removes the StringRef wrapper, since all strings are
Equiv-alent now. Removes a lot of `/* bad */ copy *`'s, and converts
several things to be &'static str (the lint table and the intrinsics
table).
There are many instances of .to_managed(), unfortunately.
This removes some unnecessary allocations in the lexer, the typechecker and the metadata decoder. Reduces the time spent in the parsing and typechecking passes by about 10% for me.
As the comment said, the subtraction is bogus for multibyte characters.
Fortunately, we can just use last_pos instead of pos to get the correct
position without any subtraction hackery.
Closes#5090 by using the excellent new generic deriving code
Promotes the unreachable code attribute to a lint attribute (instead of always being a warning)
Fixes some edge cases when creating hashmaps/hashsets and also when consuming them. (fixes#5998)
Fix a laundry list of warnings involving unused imports that glutted
up compilation output. There are more, but there seems to be some
false positives (where 'remedy' appears to break the build), but this
particular set of fixes seems safe.
