When strings lose their trailing null, this pattern will become dangerous:
let foo = "bar";
let foo_ptr: *u8 = &foo[0];
Instead we should use c_strs to handle this correctly.
* LLVM now has a C interface to LLVMBuildAtomicRMW
* The exception handling support for the JIT seems to have been dropped
* Various interfaces have been added or headers have changed
rvalues aren't going to be used anywhere but as the argument, so
there's no point in copying them. LLVM used to eliminate the copy
later, but why bother emitting it in the first place?

This is preparation for removing `@fn`.
This does *not* use default methods yet, because I don't know
whether they work. If they do, a forthcoming PR will use them.
This also changes the precedence of `as`.
* All globals marked as `pub` won't have the `internal` linkage type set
* All global references across crates are forced to use the address of the
global in the other crate via an external reference.

Closes#8179
Change the former repetition::
for 5.times { }
to::
do 5.times { }
.times() cannot be broken with `break` or `return` anymore; for those
cases, use a numerical range loop instead.

The purpose here is to get rid of compile_upto, which pretty much always requires the user to read the source to figure out what it does. It's replaced by a sequence of obviously-named functions:
- phase_1_parse_input(sess, cfg, input);
- phase_2_configure_and_expand(sess, cfg, crate);
- phase_3_run_analysis_passes(sess, expanded_crate);
- phase_4_translate_to_llvm(sess, expanded_crate, &analysis, outputs);
- phase_5_run_llvm_passes(sess, &trans, outputs);
- phase_6_link_output(sess, &trans, outputs);
Each of which takes what it takes and returns what it returns, with as little variation as possible in behaviour: no "pairs of options" and "pairs of control flags". You can tell if you missed a phase because you will be missing a `phase_N` call to some `N` between 1 and 6.
It does mean that people invoking librustc from outside need to write more function calls. The benefit is that they can _figure out what they're doing_ much more easily, and stop at any point, rather than further overloading the tangled logic of `compile_upto`.
As the title says, valid debug info is now generated for any kind of pattern-based bindings like an example from the automated tests:
```rust
let ((u, v), ((w, (x, Struct { a: y, b: z})), Struct { a: ae, b: oe }), ue) =
((25, 26), ((27, (28, Struct { a: 29, b: 30})), Struct { a: 31, b: 32 }), 33);
```
(Not that you would necessarily want to do a thing like that :P )
