Disallow writing through mutable pointers stored in non-mut Box.
Fix#14270
The fix works by making `cmt::freely_aliasable` result more fine-grained.
Instead of encoding the aliasability (i.e. whether the cmt is uniquely writable or not) as an option, now pass back an enum indicating either: 1. freely-aliasable (thus not uniquely-writable), 2. non-aliasable (thus uniquely writable), or 3. unique but immutable (and thus not uniquely writable, according to proposal from issue #14270.)
This is all of course a giant hack that will hopefully go away with an eventually removal of special treatment of `Box<T>` (aka `ty_unique`) from the compiler.

the plan is to treat all binary operators as if they were overloaded,
relying on the fact that we have impls for all the builtin scalar
operations (and no more). But then during writeback we clear the
overload if the types correspond to a builtin op.
This strategy allows us to avoid having to know the types of the
operands ahead of time. It also avoids us overspecializing as we did in
the past.
`std::dynamic_library` is currently using `std::old_io::Path` specifically. This change brings the API in alignment with `std::fs::File` by having it take `std::path::AsPath`.

This commit removes parser support for `extern crate "foo" as bar` as the
renamed crate is now required to be an identifier. Additionally this commit
enables hard errors on crate names that contain hyphens in them, they must now
solely contain alphanumeric characters or underscores.
If the crate name is inferred from the file name, however, the file name
`foo-bar.rs` will have the crate name inferred as `foo_bar`. If a binary is
being emitted it will have the name `foo-bar` and a library will have the name
`libfoo_bar.rlib`.
This commit is a breaking change for a number of reasons:
* Old syntax is being removed. This was previously only issuing warnings.
* The output for the compiler when input is received on stdin is now `rust_out`
instead of `rust-out`.
* The crate name for a crate in the file `foo-bar.rs` is now `foo_bar` which can
affect infrastructure such as logging.

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.

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).

Reject specialized Drop impls.
See Issue #8142 for discussion.
This makes it illegal for a Drop impl to be more specialized than the original item.
So for example, all of the following are now rejected (when they would have been blindly accepted before):
```rust
struct S<A> { ... };
impl Drop for S<i8> { ... } // error: specialized to concrete type
struct T<'a> { ... };
impl Drop for T<'static> { ... } // error: specialized to concrete region
struct U<A> { ... };
impl<A:Clone> Drop for U<A> { ... } // error: added extra type requirement
struct V<'a,'b>;
impl<'a,'b:a> Drop for V<'a,'b> { ... } // error: added extra region requirement
```
Due to examples like the above, this is a [breaking-change].
(The fix is to either remove the specialization from the `Drop` impl, or to transcribe the requirements into the struct/enum definition; examples of both are shown in the PR's fixed to `libstd`.)

The compiler will now issue a warning for crates that have syntax of the form
`extern crate "foo" as bar`, but it will still continue to accept this syntax.
Additionally, the string `foo-bar` will match the crate name `foo_bar` to assist
in the transition period as well.
This patch will land hopefully in tandem with a Cargo patch that will start
translating all crate names to have underscores instead of hyphens.

The primary motivation here is to sidestep #19032 -- for a time, I thought that we should improve coherence or otherwise extend the language, but I now think that any such changes will require more time to bake. In the meantime, inheritance amongst the fn traits is both logically correct *and* a simple solution to that obstacle. This change introduces inheritance and modifies the compiler so that it can properly generate impls for closures and fns.
Things enabled by this PR (but not included in this PR):
1. An impl of `FnMut` for `&mut F` where `F : FnMut` (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/23015).
2. A better version of `Thunk` I've been calling `FnBox`.
I did not include either of these in the PR because:
1. Adding the impls in 1 currently induces a coherence conflict with the pattern trait. This is interesting and merits some discussion.
2. `FnBox` deserves to be a PR of its own.
The main downside to this design is (a) the need to write impls by hand; (b) the possibility of implementing `FnMut` with different semantics from `Fn`, etc. Point (a) is minor -- in particular, it does not affect normal closure usage -- and could be addressed in the future in many ways (better defaults; convenient macros; specialization; etc). Point (b) is unfortunate but "just a bug" from my POV, and certainly not unique to these traits (c.f. Copy/Clone, PartialEq/Eq, etc). (Until we lift the feature-gate on implementing the Fn traits, in any case, there is room to correct both of these if we find a nice way.)
Note that I believe this change is reversible in the future if we decide on another course of action, due to the feature gate on implementing the `Fn` traits, though I do not (currently) think we should reverse it.
Fixes#18835.

Implementation notes:
We identify Drop impl specialization by not being as parametric as the
struct/enum definition via unification.
More specifically:
1. Attempt unification of a skolemized instance of the struct/enum
with an instance of the Drop impl's type expression where all of
the impl's generics (i.e. the free variables of the type
expression) have been replaced with unification variables.
2. If unification fails, then reject Drop impl as specialized.
3. If unification succeeds, check if any of the skolemized
variables "leaked" into the constraint set for the inference
context; if so, then reject Drop impl as specialized.
4. Otherwise, unification succeeded without leaking skolemized
variables: accept the Drop impl.
We identify whether a Drop impl is injecting new predicates by simply
looking whether the predicate, after an appropriate substitution,
appears on the struct/enum definition.
This permits all coercions to be performed in casts, but adds lints to warn in those cases.
Part of this patch moves cast checking to a later stage of type checking. We acquire obligations to check casts as part of type checking where we previously checked them. Once we have type checked a function or module, then we check any cast obligations which have been acquired. That means we have more type information available to check casts (this was crucial to making coercions work properly in place of some casts), but it means that casts cannot feed input into type inference.
[breaking change]
* Adds two new lints for trivial casts and trivial numeric casts, these are warn by default, but can cause errors if you build with warnings as errors. Previously, trivial numeric casts and casts to trait objects were allowed.
* The unused casts lint has gone.
* Interactions between casting and type inference have changed in subtle ways. Two ways this might manifest are:
- You may need to 'direct' casts more with extra type information, for example, in some cases where `foo as _ as T` succeeded, you may now need to specify the type for `_`
- Casts do not influence inference of integer types. E.g., the following used to type check:
```
let x = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
Because the cast would inform inference that `x` must have type `u32`. This no longer applies and the compiler will fallback to `i32` for `x` and thus there will be a type error in the cast. The solution is to add more type information:
```
let x: u32 = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```
This is a [breaking-change]. When indexing a generic map (hashmap, etc) using the `[]` operator, it is now necessary to borrow explicitly, so change `map[key]` to `map[&key]` (consistent with the `get` routine). However, indexing of string-valued maps with constant strings can now be written `map["abc"]`.

This commit:
* Introduces `std::convert`, providing an implementation of
RFC 529.
* Deprecates the `AsPath`, `AsOsStr`, and `IntoBytes` traits, all
in favor of the corresponding generic conversion traits.
Consequently, various IO APIs now take `AsRef<Path>` rather than
`AsPath`, and so on. Since the types provided by `std` implement both
traits, this should cause relatively little breakage.
* Deprecates many `from_foo` constructors in favor of `from`.
* Changes `PathBuf::new` to take no argument (creating an empty buffer,
as per convention). The previous behavior is now available as
`PathBuf::from`.
* De-stabilizes `IntoCow`. It's not clear whether we need this separate trait.

contains ref-bindings, do not permit any upcasting from the type of
the value being matched. Similarly, do not permit coercion in a `let`.
This is a [breaking-change] in that it closes a type hole that
previously existed, and in that coercion is not performed. You should
be able to work around the latter by converting:
```rust
let ref mut x: T = expr;
```
into
```rust
let x: T = expr;
let ref mut x = x;
```
Restricting coercion not to apply in the case of `let ref` or `let ref mut` is sort
of unexciting to me, but seems the best solution:
1. Mixing coercion and `let ref` or `let ref mut` is a bit odd, because you are taking
the address of a (coerced) temporary, but only sometimes. It's not syntactically evident,
in other words, what's going on. When you're doing a coercion, you're kind of
2. Put another way, I would like to preserve the relationship that
`equality <= subtyping <= coercion <= as-coercion`, where this is
an indication of the number of `(T1,T2)` pairs that are accepted by
the various relations. Trying to mix `let ref mut` and coercion
would create another kind of relation that is like coercion, but
acts differently in the case where a precise match is needed.
3. In any case, this is strictly more conservative than what we had
before and we can undo it in the future if we find a way to make
coercion mix with type equality.
The change to match I feel ok about but similarly unthrilled. There is
some subtle text already concerning whether to use eqtype or subtype
for identifier bindings. The best fix I think would be to always have
match use strict equality but use subtyping on identifier bindings,
but the comment `(*)` explains why that's not working at the moment.
As above, I think we can change this as we clean up the code there.
This should solve issues #23115, #23469, and #23407.
As the title says, this is just a workaround. The underlying problem is that macro expansion can produce invalid spans. I've opened issue #23480 so we don't forget about that.
