To be more specific:
`UPPERCASETYPE` was changed to `UppercaseType`
`type_new` was changed to `Type::new`
`type_function(value)` was changed to `value.method()`
With the recent fixes to method resolution, we can now remove the
dummy type parameters used as crutches in the iterator module.
For example, the zip adaptor type is just ZipIterator<T, U> now.
This moves the raw struct layout of closures, vectors, boxes, and strings into a
new `unstable::raw` module. This is meant to be a centralized location to find
information for the layout of these values.
As safe method, `repr`, is provided to convert a rust value to its raw
representation. Unsafe methods to convert back are not provided because they are
rarely used and too numerous to write an implementation for each (not much of a
common pattern).
This is a cleanup pull request that does:
* removes `os::as_c_charp`
* moves `str::as_buf` and `str::as_c_str` into `StrSlice`
* converts some functions from `StrSlice::as_buf` to `StrSlice::as_c_str`
* renames `StrSlice::as_buf` to `StrSlice::as_imm_buf` (and adds `StrSlice::as_mut_buf` to match `vec.rs`.
* renames `UniqueStr::as_bytes_with_null_consume` to `UniqueStr::to_bytes`
* and other misc cleanups and minor optimizations
The theory is simple, the immutable iterators simply hold state
variables (indicies or pointers) into frozen containers. We can freely
clone these iterators, just like we can clone borrowed pointers.
VecIterator needs a manual impl to handle the lifetime struct member.

This implements the trait for vector iterators, replacing the reverse
iterator types. The methods will stay, for implementing the future
reverse Iterable traits and convenience.
This can also be trivially implemented for circular buffers and other
variants of arrays like strings.
The `DoubleEndedIterator` trait will allow for implementing algorithms
like in-place reverse on generic mutable iterators.
The naming (`Range` vs. `Iterator`, `Bidirectional` vs. `DoubleEnded`)
can be bikeshedded in the future.

Sorry this is so huge, but it's been accumulating for about a month. There's lots of stuff here, mostly oriented toward enabling multithreaded scheduling and improving compatibility between the old and new runtimes. Adds task pinning so that we can create the 'platform thread' in servo.
[Here](e1555f9b56/src/libstd/rt/mod.rs (L201)) is the current runtime setup code.
About half of this has already been reviewed.
The free-standing functions in f32, f64, i8, i16, i32, i64, u8, u16,
u32, u64, float, int, and uint are replaced with generic functions in
num instead.
This means that instead of having to know everywhere what the type is, like
~~~
f64::sin(x)
~~~
You can simply write code that uses the type-generic versions in num instead, this works for all types that implement the corresponding trait in num.
~~~
num::sin(x)
~~~
Note 1: If you were previously using any of those functions, just replace them
with the corresponding function with the same name in num.
Note 2: If you were using a function that corresponds to an operator, use the
operator instead.
Note 3: This is just https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/7090 reopened against master.
In particular, it is not valid to go around passing uninitialized or zero'd
memory as arguments. Rust should generally be free to assume that the arguments
it gets are valid input values, but the output of intrinsics::uninit() and
intrinsics::init() are not (e.g., an @T is just null, leading to an error
if we should try to increment the ref count).

This is work continued from the now landed #7495 and #7521 pulls.
Removing the headers from unique vectors is another project, so I've separated the allocator.
Implement methods `.pop_opt() -> Option<T>` and `.shift_opt() -> Option<T>` to allow retrieval of front/back of a vec in one operation without fail. .pop() and .shift() are changed to reuse the former two methods.
Follows the naming of the previous method .head_opt()
Add a function to safely retrieve the first element of a ~[T], as
Option<T>. Implement shift() using shift_opt().
Add tests for both .shift() and .shift_opt()
