Implement for Vec, DList, RingBuf. Add MutableSeq to the prelude.
Since the collections traits are in the prelude most consumers of
these methods will continue to work without change.

Currently when a read-only file has unlink() invoked on it on windows, the call
will fail. On unix, however, the call will succeed. In order to have a more
consistent behavior across platforms, this error is recognized on windows and
the file is changed to read-write before removal is attempted.
This PR is the outcome of the library stabilization meeting for the
`liballoc::owned` and `libcore::cell` modules.
Aside from the stability attributes, there are a few breaking changes:
* The `owned` modules is now named `boxed`, to better represent its
contents. (`box` was unavailable, since it's a keyword.) This will
help avoid the misconception that `Box` plays a special role wrt
ownership.
* The `AnyOwnExt` extension trait is renamed to `BoxAny`, and its `move`
method is renamed to `downcast`, in both cases to improve clarity.
* The recently-added `AnySendOwnExt` extension trait is removed; it was
not being used and is unnecessary.

Being able to index into the bytes of a string encourages
poor UTF-8 hygiene. To get a view of `&[u8]` from either
a `String` or `&str` slice, use the `as_bytes()` method.

floating point numbers for real.
This will break code that looks like:
let mut x = 0;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Change that code to:
let mut x = 0i;
while ... {
x += 1;
}
println!("{}", x);
Closes#15201.

This breaks a fair amount of code. The typical patterns are:
* `for _ in range(0, 10)`: change to `for _ in range(0u, 10)`;
* `println!("{}", 3)`: change to `println!("{}", 3i)`;
* `[1, 2, 3].len()`: change to `[1i, 2, 3].len()`.

Replace its usage with byte string literals, except in `bytes!()` tests.
Also add a new snapshot, to be able to use the new b"foo" syntax.
The src/etc/2014-06-rewrite-bytes-macros.py script automatically
rewrites `bytes!()` invocations into byte string literals.
Pass it filenames as arguments to generate a diff that you can inspect,
or `--apply` followed by filenames to apply the changes in place.
Diffs can be piped into `tip` or `pygmentize -l diff` for coloring.

* ~[a, b, c]

All users of ~[T] should move to using Vec<T> instead.
The `FileStat` struct contained a `path` field, which was filled by the
`stat` and `lstat` function. Since this field isn't in fact returned by
the operating system (it was copied from the paths passed to the
functions) it was removed, as in the `fstat` case we aren't working with
a `Path`, but directly with a fd.
If your code used the `path` field of `FileStat` you will now have to
manually store the path passed to `stat` along with the returned struct.

These implementations must live in libstd right now because the fmt module has
not been migrated yet. This will occur in a later PR.
Just to be clear, there are new extension traits, but they are not necessary
once the std::fmt module has migrated to libcore, which is a planned migration
in the future.
for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

This patch changes `std::io::FilePermissions` from an exposed `u32`
representation to a typesafe representation (that only allows valid
flag combinations) using the `std::bitflags`, thus ensuring a greater
degree of safety on the Rust side.
Despite the change to the type, most code should continue to work
as-is, sincde the new type provides bit operations in the style of C
flags. To get at the underlying integer representation, use the `bits`
method; to (unsafely) convert to `FilePermissions`, use
`FilePermissions::from_bits`.
Closes#6085.

Previously, windows was using the CREATE_NEW flag which fails if the file
previously existed, which differed from the unix semantics. This alters the
opening to use the OPEN_ALWAYS flag to mirror the unix semantics.
Closes#13861
Clarifies the interaction of `is_dir`, `is_file` and `exists` with
symbolic links. Adds a convenience `lstat` function alongside of
`stat`. Removes references to conditions.
Closes issue #12583.
The `walk_dir` iterator was simulating a queue using a vector (in particular, using `shift`),
leading to O(n^2) performance. Since the order was not well-specified (see issue #13411),
the simplest fix is to use the vector as a stack (and thus yield a depth-first traversal).
This patch does exactly that. It leaves the order as originally specified -- "some top-down
order" -- and adds a test to ensure a top-down traversal.
Note that the underlying `readdir` function does not specify any particular order, nor
does the system call it uses.
Closes#13411.
move errno -> IoError converter into std, bubble up OSRng errors
Also adds a general errno -> `~str` converter to `std::os`, and makes the failure messages for the things using `OSRng` (e.g. (transitively) the task-local RNG, meaning hashmap initialisation failures aren't such a black box).
The various ...Rng::new() methods can hit IO errors from the OSRng they use,
and it seems sensible to expose them at a higher level. Unfortunately, writing
e.g. `StdRng::new().unwrap()` gives a much poorer error message than if it
failed internally, but this is a problem with all `IoResult`s.
