typestate now drops constraints correctly in the post-state of
a move expression or a declaration whose op is a move. It doesn't
yet drop constraints mentioning variables that get updated.
To do this, I had to change typestate to use trit-vectors instead
of bit-vectors, because for every constraint, there are three
possible values: known-to-be-false (e.g. after x <- y, init(y) is
known-to-be-false), known-to-be-true, and unknown. Before, we
conflated known-to-be-false with unknown. But move requires them
to be treated differently. Consider:
(program a)
(a1) x = 1;
(a2) y <- x;
(a3) log x;
(program b)
(b1) x = 1;
(b2) y <- z;
(b3) log x;
With only two values, the postcondition of statement a2 for
constraint init(x) is the same as that of b2: 0. But in (a2)'s
postcondition, init(x) *must* be false, but in (b2)'s condition,
it's just whatever it was in the postcondition of the preceding statement.
This reduces some redundancy in the AST data structures and cruft in
the code that works with them. To get a def_id from a node_id, apply
ast::local_def, which adds the local crate_num to the given node_id.
Most code only deals with crate-local node_ids, and won't have to
create def_ids at all.

I noticed that typestate was being lazier than it should be,
because it was only checking typestate for statements and
top-level expression (that is, the expression in a stmt_expr, but
not any subexpressions). So I rewrote the checks in tstate/ck.rs
to use walk, which exposed a few bugs in typestate that I fixed.
Also added some more test cases for if-check.
* Reorganized typestate into several modules.
* Made typestate check that any function with a non-nil return type
returns a value. For now, the check is a warning and not an error
(see next item).
* Added a "bot" type (prettyprinted as _|_), for constructs like be, ret, break, cont, and
fail that don't locally return a value that can be inspected. "bot"
is distinct from "nil". There is no concrete syntax for _|_, while
the concrete syntax for the nil type is ().
* Added support to the parser for a ! annotation on functions whose
result type is _|_. Such a function is required to have either a
fail or a call to another ! function that is reached in all control
flow paths. The point of this annotation is to mark functions like
unimpl() and span_err(), so that an alt with a call to err() in one
case isn't a false positive for the return-value checker. I haven't
actually annotated anything with it yet.
* Random bugfixes:
* * Fixed bug in trans::trans_binary that was throwing away the
cleanups for nested subexpressions of an and or or
(tests: box-inside-if and box-inside-if2).
** In typeck, unify the expected type arguments of a tag with the
actual specified arguments.
