Keep last redundant linker flag, not first
When a library (L1) is passed to the linker multiple times, this is sometimes purposeful: there might be several other libraries in the linker command (L2 and L3) that all depend on L1. You'd end up with a (simplified) linker command that looks like:
```
-l2 -l1 -l3 -l1
```
With the previous behavior, when rustc encountered a redundant library, it would keep the first instance, and remove the later ones, resulting in:
```
-l2 -l1 -l3
```
This can cause a linker error, because on some platforms (e.g. Linux), the linker will only include symbols from L1 that are needed *at the point it's referenced in the command line*. So if L3 depends on additional symbols from L1, which aren't needed by L2, the linker won't know to include them, and you'll end up with "undefined symbols" errors.
A better behavior is to keep the *last* instance of the library:
```
-l2 -l3 -l1
```
This ensures that all "downstream" libraries have been included in the linker command before the "upstream" library is referenced.

Calculate Docker cache hash precisely from Dockerfile's dependencies
#58549 changed the Docker cache calculation to include every file under `src/ci/docker`, so that when files under `dist-x86_64-linux` is changed, its dependent image `dist-i686-linux` will also be rebuilt.
However, this ultraconservative solution caused the `dist-i686-linux` to be rebuilt every time an irrelevant Dockerfile (e.g. the PowerPC ones) is changed, which increases the building time beyond 3 hours and forcing a spurious but expected failure.
This commit instead parses the Dockerfile itself and look for the actual dependencies. The scripts needs to be copied into the Docker image, which must be done with the COPY command, so we just need to find all lines with a COPY command and add the source file into the hash calculator.
Note: this script only handles single-lined COPY command in the form `COPY src1 src2 src3 dst`, since these are the only variant used inside this repository.
CI: Set job names.
This should make it easier to identify what each job is doing when looking at the Travis or Appveyor UI.
- Set `name` for each job in Travis.
- Move `CI_JOB_NAME` to the front in Appveyor so that it appears first in the UI.
Track embedded-book in the toolstate
The embedded book was tested in the tools job but the test result was never published. This PR adds maintainer information of embedded-book. This PR also requires the next update to embedded-book to pass the all tests, currently its state is test-fail.
rust-lang-nursery/rust-toolstate#10 should be merged before this PR.
[CI] Update binutils for powerpc64 and powerpc64le
Cargo powerpc64 and powerpc64le are seeing `SIGILL` crashes in openssl,
which was found to be a linking problem, fixed by newer binutils. See
<https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/57345#issuecomment-462094555>
For powerpc64 we're using crosstool-ng, which doesn't offer a newer
binutils version, but we can just compile it separately. On powerpc64le
we're already building binutils. Both are now updated to binutils 2.32.

Replaced self-reflective explicit types with clearer `Self` or `Self::…` in stdlib docs
Many docs examples use explicit types instead of the semantically more clear `Self`/`Self::…` aliases.
By using the latter it's clear that the value's type depends on either `Self`, or an associated type of `Self`, instead of some constant type. It's also more consistent (and I'd argue correct), as the current docs aren't really consistent in this, as can be seen from the diff.
This is a best effort PR, as I was basically going through the docs manually, looking for offending examples. I'm sure I missed a few. Gotta start somewhere.
extra testing of how NLL handles wildcard type `_`
test that wildcard type `_` is not duplicated by `type Foo<X> = (X, X);` and potentially instantiated at different types when used in type ascriptions in let bindings.
(NLL's handling of this for the type ascription *expression form* is currently broken, or at least differs from what AST-borrowck does. I'll file a separate bug about that. Its not something critical to address since that expression is guarded by `#![feature(type_ascription)]`.)

Add todo!() macro
The primary use-case of `todo!()` macro is to be a much easier to type
alternative to `unimplemented!()` macro.
EDIT: hide unpopular proposal about re-purposing unimplemented
<details>
However, instead of just replacing `unimplemented!()`, it gives it a
more nuanced meaning: a thing which is intentionally left
unimplemented and which should not be called at runtime. Usually,
you'd like to prevent such cases statically, but sometimes you, for
example, have to implement a trait only some methods of which are
applicable. There are examples in the wild of code doing this thing,
and in this case, the current message of `unimplemented`, "not *yet*
implemented" is slightly misleading.
With the addition of TODO, you have three nuanced choices for a
`!`-returning macro (in addition to a good-old panic we all love):
* todo!()
* unreachable!()
* unimplemented!()
Here's a rough guideline what each one means:
- `todo`: use it during development, as a "hole" or placeholder. It
might be a good idea to add a pre-commit hook which checks that
`todo` is not accidentally committed.
- `unreachable!()`: use it when your code can statically guarantee
that some situation can not happen. If you use a library and hit
`unreachable!()` in the library's code, it's definitely a bug in the
library. It's OK to have `unreachable!()` in the code base,
although, if possible, it's better to replace it with
compiler-verified exhaustive checks.
- `unimplemented!()`: use it when the type checker forces you to
handle some situation, but there's a contract that a callee must not
actually call the code. If you use a library and hit
`unimplemented!()`, it's probably a bug in your code, though
it *could* be a bug in the library (or library docs) as well. It is
ok-ish to see an `unimplemented!()` in real code, but it usually
signifies a clunky, eyebrow-rising API.

lint.
- Tightens the span to just the ambiguous link.
- Reports ambiguities across all three namespaces.
- Uses structured suggestions for disambiguation.
- Adds a test for the warnings.
