r? @brson This necessitated some cleanup to how we parse library filenames
when searching for libraries, since rustpkg may now create filenames
that contain '-' characters. Also cleaned up how rustpkg passes the
sysroot to a custom build script.
Each IO handle has a home event loop, which created it.
When a task wants to use an IO handle, it must first make sure it is on that home event loop.
It uses the scheduler handle in the IO handle to send itself there before starting the IO action.
Once the IO action completes, the task restores its previous home state.
If it is an AnySched task, then it will be executed on the new scheduler.
If it has a normal home, then it will return there before executing any more code after the IO action.

Given that bootstrapping and running the testsuite works without
exporting discriminant values as global constants, I conclude that
they're unused and can be removed.
This requires changes to method search and to codegen. We now emit a
vtable for objects that includes methods from all supertraits.
Closes#4100.
Also, actually populate the cache for vtables, and also key it by type
so that it actually works.
Long-standing branch to remove foreign function wrappers altogether. Calls to C functions are done "in place" with no stack manipulation; the scheme relies entirely on the correct use of `#[fixed_stack_segment]` to guarantee adequate stack space. A linter is added to detect when `#[fixed_stack_segment]` annotations are missing. An `externfn!` macro is added to make it easier to declare foreign fns and wrappers in one go: this macro may need some refinement, though, for example it might be good to be able to declare a group of foreign fns. I leave that for future work (hopefully somebody else's work :) ).
Fixes#3678.
Let CharIterator be a separate type from CharOffsetIterator (so that
CharIterator can be cloned, for example).
Implement CharOffsetIterator by using the same technique as the method
subslice_offset.
Add a function like raw::slice_bytes, but it doesn't check slice
boundaries. For iterator use where we always know the begin, end indices
are in range.
See discussion in #8489, but this selects option 3 by adding a `Default` trait to be implemented by various basic types.
Once this makes it into a snapshot I think it's about time to start overhauling all current use-cases of `fmt!` to move towards `ifmt!`. The goal is to replace `%X` with `{}` in 90% of situations, and this commit should enable that.
Add size_hint() to a few Iterators that were missing it.
Update a couple of existing size_hint()s to use checked_add() instead of
saturating_add() for the upper bound.
