closes#23620
This PR patches the issue mentioned in #23620, but there is also an ICE for invalid escape sequences in byte literals. This is due to the fact that the `scan_byte` function returns ` token::intern("??") ` for invalid bytes, resulting in an ICE later on. Is there a reason for this behavior? Shouldn't `scan_byte` fail when it encounters an invalid byte?
And I noticed a small inconsistency in the documentation. According to the formal byte literal definition in http://doc.rust-lang.org/reference.html#byte-and-byte-string-literals , a byte string literal contains `string_body *`, but according to the text (and the behavior of the lexer) it should not accept unicode escape sequences. Hence it should be replaced by `byte_body *`. If this is valid, I can add this fix to this PR.
Replace zeroing-on-drop with filling-on-drop.
This is meant to set the stage for removing *all* zeroing and filling (on drop) in the future.
Note that the code is meant to be entirely abstract with respect to the particular values used for the drop flags: the final commit demonstrates how to go from zeroing-on-drop to filling-on-drop by changing the value of three constants (in two files).
See further discussion on the internals thread:

This PR introduces a `Reflect` marker trait which is a supertrait of `Any`. The idea is that `Reflect` is defined for all concrete types, but is not defined for type parameters unless there is a `T:Reflect` bound. This is intended to preserve the parametricity property. This allows the `Any` interface to be stabilized without committing us to unbounded reflection that is not easily detectable by the caller.
The implementation of `Reflect` relies on an experimental variant of OIBIT. This variant behaves differently for objects, since it requires that all types exposed as part of the object's *interface* are `Reflect`, but isn't concerned about other types that may be closed over. In other words, you don't have to write `Foo+Reflect` in order for `Foo: Reflect` to hold (where `Foo` is a trait).
Given that `Any` is slated to stabilization and hence that we are committed to some form of reflection, the goal of this PR is to leave our options open with respect to parametricity. I see the options for full stabilization as follows (I think an RFC would be an appropriate way to confirm whichever of these three routes we take):
1. We make `Reflect` a lang-item.
2. We stabilize some version of the OIBIT variation I implemented as a general mechanism that may be appropriate for other use cases.
3. We give up on preserving parametricity here and just have `impl<T> Reflect for T` instead. In that case, `Reflect` is a harmless but not especially useful trait going forward.

Windows gets quite unhappy when a thread fails while the main thread is exiting,
frequently leading to process deadlock. This has been causing quite a few
deadlocks on the windows bots recently. The child threads are presumably failing
because the `println!` is failing due to the main thread being shut down.
RFC pending, but this is the patch that does it.
Totally untested. Likely needs some removed imports. std::collections docs should also be updated to provide better examples.
Closes#23508
Marks as `#[stable}`:
* `ok_or`
* `ok_or_else`
* `iter_mut`
* `cloned`
Similarly to `IteratorExt::cloned`, the `cloned` method is pared down to
work only on `Option<&T>`. Thus, this is a:

Now that `<[_]>::split` is an inherent method, it will trump `BufRead::split`
when `BufRead` is in scope, so there is no longer a conflict. As a result,
calling `slice.split()` will probably always give you precisely what you want!
Found a few 404s that seemed like simple fixes:
The Result docs use old_io Writer as an example. Fix the link to old_io Writer. There's probably an effort to update the example away from a deprecated api but this was a simple fix.
rustc/plugin was pointing at the old guide and it was a broken link anyways (plugin vs plugins). Point at the book instead.
The main page of the API docs referenced c_{str,vec}. Looks like these were deleted in 25d5a3a194. Point at ffi docs instead.
This commit revises `path` and `os_str` to use blanket impls for `From`
on reference types. This both cuts down on the number of required impls,
and means that you can pass through e.g. `T: AsRef<OsStr>` to
`PathBuf::from` without an intermediate call to `as_ref`.
It also makes a FIXME note for later generalizing the blanket impls for
`AsRef` and `AsMut` to use `Deref`/`DerefMut`, once it is possible to do
so.
This attribute has been deprecated in favor of #[should_panic]. This also
updates rustdoc to no longer accept the `should_fail` directive and instead
renames it to `should_panic`.
This commit removes compiler support for the `old_impl_check` attribute which
should in theory be entirely removed now. The last remaining use of it in the
standard library has been updated by moving the type parameter on the
`old_io::Acceptor` trait into an associated type. As a result, this is a
breaking change for all current users of the deprecated `old_io::Acceptor`
trait. Code can be migrated by using the `Connection` associated type instead.

This is technically a breaking change as it deprecates and unstables
some previously stable apis that were missed in the last round of
deprecations.
[breaking change]
This PR adds support for associated types to the `#[derive(...)]` syntax extension. In order to do this, it switches over to using where predicates to apply the type constraints. So now this:
```rust
type Trait {
type Type;
}
#[derive(Clone)]
struct Foo<A> where A: Trait {
a: A,
b: <A as Trait>::Type,
}
```
Gets expended into this impl:
```rust
impl<A: Clone> Clone for Foo<A> where
A: Trait,
<A as Trait>::Type: Clone,
{
fn clone(&self) -> Foo<T> {
Foo {
a: self.a.clone(),
b: self.b.clone(),
}
}
}
```
