This implements RFC 39. Omitted lifetimes in return values will now be
inferred to more useful defaults, and an error is reported if a lifetime
in a return type is omitted and one of the two lifetime elision rules
does not specify what it should be.
This primarily breaks two uncommon code patterns. The first is this:
unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &Foo {
...
}
This should be changed to:
unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &'static Foo {
...
}
The second pattern that needs to be changed is this:
enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
Borrowed(&'a str),
Owned(String),
}
fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed {
Owned(format!("hello world"))
}
Change code like this to:
enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
Borrowed(&'a str),
Owned(String),
}
fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed<'static> {
Owned(format!("hello world"))
}
Closes#15552.

Reimplement the string slice's `Iterator<char>` by wrapping the already efficient
slice iterator.
The iterator uses our guarantee that the string contains valid UTF-8, but its only unsafe
code is transmuting the decoded `u32` into `char`.
Benchmarks suggest that the runtime of `Chars` benchmarks are reduced by up to 30%,
runtime of `Chars` reversed reduced by up to 60%.

except where trait objects are involved.
Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects.
Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we
have DST.
This will break code like:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(a);
Change this code to:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(&*a);

Someone asked for an example usage of this on IRC, so I tossed together the simplest one. Obviously, this isn't up to snuff, but it's better than nothing.
- `width()` computes the displayed width of a string, ignoring the width of control characters.
- arguably we might do *something* else for control characters, but the question is, what?
- users who want to do something else can iterate over chars()
- `graphemes()` returns a `Graphemes` struct, which implements an iterator over the grapheme clusters of a &str.
- fully compliant with [UAX#29](http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/#Grapheme_Cluster_Boundaries)
- passes all [Unicode-supplied tests](http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr41/tr41-15.html#Tests29)
- added code to generate additionial categories in `unicode.py`
- `Cn` aka `Not_Assigned`
- categories necessary for grapheme cluster breaking
- tidied up the exports from libunicode
- all exports are exposed through a module rather than directly at crate root.
- std::prelude imports UnicodeChar and UnicodeStrSlice from std::char and std::str rather than directly from libunicode
