Impls can implement either zero or one traits; this has been true
more or less since we removed classes. So I got rid of the comments
saying "we should support multiple traits" and changed the code to
make it clear that we don't. This is just cleanup, and doesn't break
any existing tests.
`str::from_slice` and `vec::from_slice` are changed to `str::to_owned` and `vec::to_owned`. (#6389)
Replace `at_vec::from_owned` and `at_vec::from_slice` with `at_vec::to_managed_consume` and `at_vec::to_managed`.
Replace all instances of #[auto_*code] with the appropriate #[deriving] attribute
and remove the majority of the actual auto_* code, leaving stubs to refer the user to
the new syntax.
Also, moves the useful contents of auto_encode.rs to more appropriate spots: tests and comments to deriving/encodable.rs, and the ExtCtxtMethods trait to build.rs (unused so far, but the method syntax might be nicer than using the mk_* fns in many instances).

r? @brson This patch implements package IDs like
github.com/catamorphism/test-pkg.
To support such package IDs, I changed the PkgId struct to contain
a LocalPath and a RemotePath field, where the RemotePath reflects
the actual URL and the LocalPath reflects the file name of the cached
copy. Right now, the only difference is that the local path doesn't
contain dashes, but this will change when we implement #6407.
Also, PkgIds now have a short_name field -- though the short name
can be derived from the LocalPath, I thought it was cleaner not to
call option::get() wantonly.
This is mostly for `std::rc` and `std::arc` (but I haven't implemented it for ARC yet).
Implementing it correctly for managed boxes is *very* non-trivial. It would probably require an unholy mix of reflection and TLS.
