This commit generalises parsing of associative operators from left-associative
only (with some ugly hacks to support right-associative assignment) to properly
left/right-associative operators.
Parsing still is not general enough to handle non-associative,
non-highest-precedence prefix or non-highest-precedence postfix operators (e.g.
`..` range syntax), though. That should be fixed in the future.
Lastly, this commit adds support for parsing right-associative `<-` (left arrow)
operator with precedence higher than assignment as the operator for placement-in
feature.
This PR switches the implemented ordering from `unsafe const fn` (as was in the original RFC) to `const unsafe fn` (which is what the lang team decided on)
Previously, if you copied a signature from a trait definition such as:
```rust
fn foo<'a>(&'a Bar) -> bool {}
```
and moved it into an `impl`, there would be an error message:
"unexpected token `'a`"
Adding to the error message that a pattern is expected should help
users to find the actual problem with using a lifetime here.
This commit stabilizes and deprecates library APIs whose FCP has closed in the
last cycle, specifically:
Stabilized APIs:
* `fs::canonicalize`
* `Path::{metadata, symlink_metadata, canonicalize, read_link, read_dir, exists,
is_file, is_dir}` - all moved to inherent methods from the `PathExt` trait.
* `Formatter::fill`
* `Formatter::width`
* `Formatter::precision`
* `Formatter::sign_plus`
* `Formatter::sign_minus`
* `Formatter::alternate`
* `Formatter::sign_aware_zero_pad`
* `string::ParseError`
* `Utf8Error::valid_up_to`
* `Iterator::{cmp, partial_cmp, eq, ne, lt, le, gt, ge}`
* `<[T]>::split_{first,last}{,_mut}`
* `Condvar::wait_timeout` - note that `wait_timeout_ms` is not yet deprecated
but will be once 1.5 is released.
* `str::{R,}MatchIndices`
* `str::{r,}match_indices`
* `char::from_u32_unchecked`
* `VecDeque::insert`
* `VecDeque::shrink_to_fit`
* `VecDeque::as_slices`
* `VecDeque::as_mut_slices`
* `VecDeque::swap_remove_front` - (renamed from `swap_front_remove`)
* `VecDeque::swap_remove_back` - (renamed from `swap_back_remove`)
* `Vec::resize`
* `str::slice_mut_unchecked`
* `FileTypeExt`
* `FileTypeExt::{is_block_device, is_char_device, is_fifo, is_socket}`
* `BinaryHeap::from` - `from_vec` deprecated in favor of this
* `BinaryHeap::into_vec` - plus a `Into` impl
* `BinaryHeap::into_sorted_vec`
Deprecated APIs
* `slice::ref_slice`
* `slice::mut_ref_slice`
* `iter::{range_inclusive, RangeInclusive}`
* `std::dynamic_lib`

Qualified paths allow full path after the `>::`. For example
```rust
<T as Foo>::U::generic_method::<f64>()
```
The example is taken from `test/run-pass/associated-item-long-paths.rs`.

The attributes are copied from the item for which the trait impl is derived
I think now we can close these two issues:
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/13054 - `allow`, `deny` etc. were already copied, now `stable` and `unstable` are copied as well.
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/18969 - I'm not sure this is needed, insta-stability were good enough so far, copied stability will be better. Nonetheless, it can be subsumed by some more general mechanism for supplying arbitrary not necessarily stability related attributes (for example `inline`) to derived impls and their methods (I haven't found an open issue for such mechanism).
r? @alexcrichton
Stricter checking of stability attributes + enforcement of their invariants at compile time
(+ removed dead file librustc_front/attr.rs)
I intended to enforce use of `reason` for unstable items as well (it normally presents for new items), but it turned out too intrusive, many older unstable items don't have `reason`s.
r? @aturon
I'm studying how stability works and do some refactoring along the way, so it's probably not the last PR.
Previously, `/**/` was incorrectly regarded as a doc comment because it starts with `/**` and ends with `*/`. However, this caused an ICE because some code assumed that the length of a doc comment is at least 5. This commit adds an additional check to `is_block_doc_comment` that tests the length of the input.
Fixes#28844.
