The common pattern `iter::repeat(elt).take(n).collect::<Vec<_>>()` is
exactly equivalent to `vec![elt; n]`, do this replacement in the whole
tree.
(Actually, vec![] is smart enough to only call clone n - 1 times, while
the former solution would call clone n times, and this fact is
virtually irrelevant in practice.)
stores relationships like `'c <= '0` (where `'c` is a free region and
`'0` is an inference variable) that are derived from closure
arguments. These are (rather hackily) ignored for purposes of inference,
preventing spurious errors. The current code did not handle transitive
cases like `'c <= '0` and `'0 <= '1`. Fixes#24085.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
