In the general case, at least, it is not possible to make an object out of an unsized type. This is because the object type would have to store the fat pointer information for the `self` value *and* the vtable -- meaning it'd have to be a fat pointer with three words -- but for the compiler to know that the object requires three words, it would have to know the self-type of the object (is `self` a thin or fat pointer?), which of course it doesn't.
Fixes#18333.

(Previously, scopes were solely identified with NodeId's; this
refactoring prepares for a future where that does not hold.)
Ground work for a proper fix to #8861.

Use the expected type to infer the argument/return types of unboxed closures. Also, in `||` expressions, use the expected type to decide if the result should be a boxed or unboxed closure (and if an unboxed closure, what kind).
This supercedes PR #19089, which was already reviewed by @pcwalton.
This commit applies the stabilization of std::fmt as outlined in [RFC 380][rfc].
There are a number of breaking changes as a part of this commit which will need
to be handled to migrated old code:
* A number of formatting traits have been removed: String, Bool, Char, Unsigned,
Signed, and Float. It is recommended to instead use Show wherever possible or
to use adaptor structs to implement other methods of formatting.
* The format specifier for Boolean has changed from `t` to `b`.
* The enum `FormatError` has been renamed to `Error` as well as becoming a unit
struct instead of an enum. The `WriteError` variant no longer exists.
* The `format_args_method!` macro has been removed with no replacement. Alter
code to use the `format_args!` macro instead.
* The public fields of a `Formatter` have become read-only with no replacement.
Use a new formatting string to alter the formatting flags in combination with
the `write!` macro. The fields can be accessed through accessor methods on the
`Formatter` structure.
Other than these breaking changes, the contents of std::fmt should now also all
contain stability markers. Most of them are still #[unstable] or #[experimental]

Closes#18904
Ensure that the type parameters passed to methods outlive the call expression.
Fixes#18899.
This is yet another case of forgotten to consistently enforce the constraints in every instance where they apply. Might be nice to try and refactor to make this whole thing more DRY, but for now here's a targeted fix.

This fixes#17388.
Note that we don't check type parameters in trait-references and so on, so we accept some nonsense (I opened https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/18865). (It may be easier to just add support for `T::Foo` and deprecate the qpath code until we can implement it more robustly using the trait lookup infrastructure, not sure.)

Closes#18904
region binding at the impl site, so for method types that come from impls,
it is necessary to liberate/instantiate late-bound regions at multiple
depths.
Reduces memory usage significantly and opens opportunities for more parallel compilation.
This PR was previously #19002 but I closed it because bors didn't seem to recognize the `r+` annotations there.
The trait has an obvious, sensible implementation directly on vectors so
the MemWriter wrapper is unnecessary. This will halt the trend towards
providing all of the vector methods on MemWriter along with eliminating
the noise caused by conversions between the two types. It also provides
the useful default Writer methods on Vec<u8>.
After the type is removed and code has been migrated, it would make
sense to add a new implementation of MemWriter with seeking support. The
simple use cases can be covered with vectors alone, and ones with the
need for seeks can use a new MemWriter implementation.
