./x.py test should be able to run individual tests
Allows user to be able to run individual tests by specifying filename i.e `./x.py test src/test/run-pass/foo.rs`
Fixes#48483
When the RawVec::try_reserve* methods were added, they took the place of
the ::reserve* methods in the source file, and new ::reserve* methods
wrapping the new try_reserve* methods were created. But the
documentation didn't move along, such that:
- reserve_* methods are barely documented.
- try_reserve_* methods have unmodified documentation from reserve_*,
such that their documentation indicate they are panicking/aborting.
This moves the documentation back to the right methods, with a
placeholder documentation for the try_reserve* methods.
Currently on CI we predominately compile LLVM with the default system compiler
which means gcc on Linux, some version of Clang on OSX, MSVC on Windows, and
gcc on MinGW. This commit switches Linux, OSX, and Windows to all use Clang
6.0.0 to build LLVM (aka the C/C++ compiler as part of the bootstrap). This
looks to generate faster code according to #49879 which translates to a faster
rustc (as LLVM internally is faster)
The major changes here were to the containers that build Linux releases,
basically adding a new step that uses the previous gcc 4.8 compiler to compile
the next Clang 6.0.0 compiler. Otherwise the OSX and Windows scripts have been
updated to download precompiled versions of Clang 6 and configure the build to
use them.
Note that `cc` was updated here to fix using `clang-cl` with `cc-rs` on MSVC, as
well as an update to `sccache` on Windows which was needed to correctly work
with `clang-cl`. Finally the MinGW compiler is entirely left out here
intentionally as it's currently thought that Clang can't generate C++ code for
MinGW and we need to use gcc, but this should be verified eventually.
Refactor auto trait handling in librustdoc to be accessible from librustc.
These commits transfer some of the functionality introduced in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/47833 to librustc with the intention of making the tools to work with auto traits accessible to third-party code, for example [rust-semverver](https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-semverver).
Some rough edges remain, and I'm certain some of the FIXMEs introduced will need some discussion, most notably the fairly ugly overall approach to pull out the core logic into librustc, which was previously fairly tightly coupled with various bits and bobs from librustdoc.

This commit is spawned out of a performance regression investigation in #50496.
In tracking down this regression it turned out that the `expand_statements`
function in the compiler was taking quite a long time. Further investigation
showed two key properties:
* The function was "fast" on glibc 2.24 and slow on glibc 2.23
* The hottest function was memmove from glibc
Combined together it looked like glibc gained an optimization to the memmove
function in 2.24. Ideally we don't want to rely on this optimization, so I
wanted to dig further to see what was happening.
The hottest part of `expand_statements` was `Drop for Drain` in the call to
`splice` where we insert new statements into the original vector. This *should*
be a cheap operation because we're draining and replacing iterators of the exact
same length, but under the hood memmove was being called a lot, causing a
slowdown on glibc 2.23.
It turns out that at least one of the optimizations in glibc 2.24 was that
`memmove` where the src/dst are equal becomes much faster. [This program][prog]
executes in ~2.5s against glibc 2.23 and ~0.3s against glibc 2.24, exhibiting
how glibc 2.24 is optimizing `memmove` if the src/dst are equal.
And all that brings us to what this commit itself is doing. The change here is
purely to `Drop for Drain` to avoid the call to `ptr::copy` if the region being
copied doesn't actually need to be copied. For normal usage of just `Drain`
itself this check isn't really necessary, but because `Splice` internally
contains `Drain` this provides a nice speed boost on glibc 2.23. Overall this
should fix the regression seen in #50496 on glibc 2.23 and also fix the
regression on Windows where `memmove` looks to not have this optimization.
Note that the way `splice` was called in `expand_statements` would cause a
quadratic number of elements to be copied via `memmove` which is likely why the
tuple-stress benchmark showed such a severe regression.
Closes#50496

Add some explanations for #[must_use]
`#[must_use]` can be given a string argument which is shown whilst warning for things.
We should add a string argument to most of the user-exposed ones.
I added these for everything but the operators, mostly because I'm not sure what to write there or if we need anything there.
Add more logarithm constants
Right now, we have `ln(2)` and `ln(10)`, but only `log2(e)` and `log10(e)`. This also adds `log2(10)` and `log10(2)` for consistency.
Optimize string handling in lit_token().
In the common case, the string value in a string literal Token is the
same as the string value in a string literal LitKind. (The exception is
when escapes or \r are involved.) This patch takes advantage of that to
avoid calling str_lit() and re-interning the string in that case. This
speeds up incremental builds for a few of the rustc-benchmarks, the best
by 3%.

Also remove some unnecessary debug_assert! when creating the shared
root, since the root should be stored in the rodata and thus be
impossible to accidentally modify.
