This patch marks `PartialEq`, `Eq`, `PartialOrd`, and `Ord` as
`#[stable]`, as well as the majorify of manual implementaitons of these
traits. The traits match the [reform
RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/439).
Along the way, two changes are made:
* The recently-added type parameters for `Ord` and `Eq` are
removed. These were mistakenly added while adding them to `PartialOrd`
and `PartialEq`, but they don't make sense given the laws that are
required for (and use cases for) `Ord` and `Eq`.
* More explicit laws are added for `PartialEq` and `PartialOrd`,
connecting them to their associated mathematical concepts.
In the future, many of the impls should be generalized; see
since generalizing later is not a breaking change.

post-unboxed-closure-conversion. This requires a fair amount of
annoying coercions because all the `map` etc types are defined
generically over the `F`, so the automatic coercions don't propagate;
this is compounded by the need to use `let` and not `as` due to
stage0. That said, this pattern is to a large extent temporary and
unusual.
This patch marks `clone` stable, as well as the `Clone` trait, but
leaves `clone_from` unstable. The latter will be decided by the beta.
The patch also marks most manual implementations of `Clone` as stable,
except where the APIs are otherwise deprecated or where there is
uncertainty about providing `Clone`.

lifetimes. This currently causes an ICE; it should (ideally) work, but
failing that at least give a structured error. For the purposes of
this PR, though, workaround is fine.
Using a type alias for iterator implementations is fragile since this exposes the implementation to users of the iterator, and any changes could break existing code.
This PR changes the iterators of `BTreeMap`, `BTreeSet`, `HashMap`, and `HashSet` to use proper new types, rather than type aliases. However, since it is fair-game to treat a type-alias as the aliased type, this is a:

One question is: should we start by warning, and only switch to hard error later? I think we discussed something like this in the meeting.

This commit performs a second pass stabilization of the `std::default` module.
The module was already marked `#[stable]`, and the inheritance of `#[stable]`
was removed since this attribute was applied. This commit adds the `#[stable]`
attribute to the trait definition and one method name, along with all
implementations found in the standard distribution.

- The following operator traits now take their arguments by value: `Add`, `Sub`, `Mul`, `Div`, `Rem`, `BitAnd`, `BitOr`, `BitXor`, `Shl`, `Shr`. This breaks all existing implementations of these traits.
- The binary operation `a OP b` now "desugars" to `OpTrait::op_method(a, b)` and consumes both arguments.
- `String` and `Vec` addition have been changed to reuse the LHS owned value, and to avoid internal cloning. Only the following asymmetric operations are available: `String + &str` and `Vec<T> + &[T]`, which are now a short-hand for the "append" operation.

This passes `make check` locally. I haven't touch the unary operators in this PR, but converting them to by value should be very similar to this PR. I can work on them after this gets the thumbs up.
@nikomatsakis r? the compiler changes
@aturon r? the library changes. I think the only controversial bit is the semantic change of the `Vec`/`String` `Add` implementation.

I am trying to add an implementation of `bitor` for `BTreeSet`. I think I am most of the way there, but I am going to need some guidance to take it all the way.
When I run `make check`, I get:
```
error: cannot move out of dereference of `&`-pointer
self.union(_rhs).map(|&i| i).collect::<BTreeSet<T>>()
^~
```
I'd appreciate any nudges in the right direction. If I can figure this one out, I am sure I will be able to implement `bitand`, `bitxor`, and `sub` as well.

**Update**
I have added implementations for `BitOr`, `BitAnd`, `BitXor`, and `Sub` for `BTreeSet`.
Add initial attempt at implementing BitOr for BTreeSet.
Update the implementation of the bitor operator for BTreeSets.
`make check` ran fine through this.
Add implementations for BitAnd, BitXor, and Sub as well.
Remove the FIXME comment and add unstable flags.
Add doctests for the bitop functions.
I'm interested in including doctests for `BTreeMap`'s `iter_mut` and `into_iter` methods in this PR as well, but I am not sure of the best way to demonstrate/test what they do for the doctests.
Now that we have an overloaded comparison (`==`) operator, and that `Vec`/`String` deref to `[T]`/`str` on method calls, many `as_slice()`/`as_mut_slice()`/`to_string()` calls have become redundant. This patch removes them. These were the most common patterns:
- `assert_eq(test_output.as_slice(), "ground truth")` -> `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth")`
- `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth".to_string())` -> `assert_eq(test_output, "ground truth")`
- `vec.as_mut_slice().sort()` -> `vec.sort()`
- `vec.as_slice().slice(from, to)` -> `vec.slice(from_to)`
---
Note that e.g. `a_string.push_str(b_string.as_slice())` has been left untouched in this PR, since we first need to settle down whether we want to favor the `&*b_string` or the `b_string[]` notation.
This is rebased on top of #19167
