Expanded docs and examples for PathBuf::file_name and friends
This addresses some common surprises when `PathBuf::set_file_name` is called on the path of a directory rather than a file.

Use an (over-writable) environment variable for the `gdb` command
Instead of hard-coding the command to run, using the environment
variable `GDB_CMD` (that defaults to `gdb`) allows using a different
debugger than the default `gdb` executable.
This gives the possibility to use `cgdb` as the debugger, which provides
a nicer user interface. Note that one has to use `GDB_CMD="cgdb --"` to
use cgdb (note the trailing `--`) to let cgdb pass the proper arguments
to `gdb`.
Reduce visual clutter of multiline start when possible
When a span starts on a line with nothing but whitespace to the left,
and there are no other annotations in that line, simplify the visual
representation of the span.
Go from:
```rust
error[E0072]: recursive type `A` has infinite size
--> file2.rs:1:1
|
1 | struct A {
| _^ starting here...
2 | | a: A,
3 | | }
| |_^ ...ending here: recursive type has infinite size
|
```
To:
```rust
error[E0072]: recursive type `A` has infinite size
--> file2.rs:1:1
|
1 | / struct A {
2 | | a: A,
3 | | }
| |_^ recursive type has infinite size
```

Remove `starting here...`/`...ending here` labels from all multiline
diagnostics.
The main changes around rustc::ty::Layout::struct and rustc_trans:adt:
* Added primitive_align field which stores alignment before repr align
* Always emit field padding when generating the LLVM struct fields
* Added methods for adjusting field indexes from the layout index to the
LLVM struct field index
The main user of this information is rustc_trans::adt::struct_llfields
which determines the LLVM fields to be used by LLVM, including padding
fields.
Update `Child` docs to not have a note section
In #29370 it's noted that for "the Note shouldn't be one, and should come before
the examples." This commit changes the positioning of the section and removes
wording that said take note in order for it to flow better with the surrounding
text and it's new position.
specialize Extend for Vec with IntoIter
Before, `vec.extend(&other_vec)` was quite a bit faster than `vec.extend(other_vec)`. This allows extending by consuming a vec to use the same code as extending from a slice.
Override ToOwned::clone_into for Path and OsStr
The only non-overridden one remaining is the CStr impl, which cannot
be optimized as doing so would break CString's second invariant.
Follow-up to 7ec27ae (PR #41009).

rustc_trans: do not treat byval as using up registers.
Perhaps not that well-documented, `byval` pointer arguments *are not* the same as pointer arguments used by pass-by-ref, but rather the pointer is only used by LLVM to pass the *contents* on the stack.
Fixes#41375.
Fix ICE building gluon_vm
The problem was due to various places we were failing to propagate obligations. I think I got them mostly correct, but I didn't get around to writing test cases for each case.

Bump stage0 to fix ARM LLVM
There was a serious ARM codegen bug in LLVM that was fixed by #40779,
also backported to beta. This updates stage0 to 1.17.0-beta.3 to pick
up that change, so ARM can bootstrap natively again.
Fixes#41291

Disable git caches again
The appveyor ones aren't working anyway (I need to talk to appveyor about them being corrupt) and the travis cache is taking too long to restore and is being killed, which is sometimes causing bad things to happen because the integrity checking made assumptions that restore was atomic.
I could fix the integrity checks, but we clearly need a different approach if restore is taking too long. Let's disable it all for now.
Improve std::path docs
Fixes#29368.
This PR contains a pretty significant redistribution of some of the module docs to more appropriate places, as well as general expansion, clarification, and additional examples.
For more details, see the commit descriptions.
