fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.
This fixes the issue described in #4202.
From what I understood of the code, when we reexport a trait in a submodule using e.g. "pub use foo::SomeTrait", we were not previously making an effort to reexport the static methods on that trait.
I'm new to the Rust code base (and the Rust language itself) so my approach may not be kosher, but this patch works by changing the encoder to include the static methods associated with traits.
I couldn't see any tests for this area of the code, so I didn't really have any examples to go by. If tests are needed, I'm happy to work through that if I can get some assistance to do so.
Closes#6183.
The first commit changes the compiler's method of treating a `for` loop, and all the remaining commits are just dealing with the fallout.
The biggest fallout was the `IterBytes` trait, although it's really a whole lot nicer now because all of the `iter_bytes_XX` methods are just and-ed together. Sadly there was a huge amount of stuff that's `cfg(stage0)` gated, but whoever lands the next snapshot is going to have a lot of fun deleting all this code!
&str can be turned into @~str on demand, using to_owned(), so for
strings, we can create a specialized interner that accepts &str for
intern() and find() but stores and returns @~str.
its own type. Use a bitset to represent built-in bounds. There
are several places in the language where only builtin bounds (aka kinds)
will be accepted, e.g. on closures, destructor type parameters perhaps,
and on trait types.

I just had `git apply` fix most of them and then did a quick skim over the diff to fix a few cases where it did the wrong thing (mostly replacing tabs with 4 spaces, when someone's editor had them at 8 spaces).
In rustpkg, pass around sysroot; in rustpkg tests, set the sysroot
manually so that tests can find libcore and such.
With bonus metadata::filesearch refactoring to avoid copies.
There's no unifying theme here; I'm just trying to clear a bunch of small commits: removing dead code, adding comments, renaming to an upper-case type, fixing one test case.
signature. In a nutshell, the idea is to (1) report an error if, for
a region pointer `'a T`, the lifetime `'a` is longer than any
lifetimes that appear in `T` (in other words, if a borrowed pointer
outlives any portion of its contents) and then (2) use this to assume
that in a function like `fn(self: &'a &'b T)`, the relationship `'a <=
'b` holds. This is needed for #5656. Fixes#5728.
