This is the same approach taken in #24270, except that this
should not be a breaking change because it only changes the output
of hash functions, which nobody should be relying on.
add regression test for try!
Our widespread internal use of `try` was like a regression test. Now that most of `try!`s have been converted to `?`, lets add a proper regression test.

Flatten rustc and rustc_trans module hierarchy slightly.
The following moves were made, in the name of sanity/simplicity:
* `rustc::middle::{cfg, infer, traits, ty}` to `rustc::{cfg, infer, traits, ty}`
* `rustc::middle::subst` to `rustc::ty::subst`
* `rustc_trans::trans::*` to `rustc_trans::*`
* `rustc_trans::save` to `rustc_save_analysis` (cc @nrc)
I've rebased a larger WIP branch on top of this and the only conflicts were in imports, but YMMV.
std: Rewrite Once with poisoning
This commit rewrites the `std::sync::Once` primitive with poisoning in mind in
light of #31688. Currently a panic in the initialization closure will cause
future initialization closures to run, but the purpose of a Once is usually to
initialize some global state so it's highly likely that the global state is
corrupt if a panic happened. The same strategy of a mutex is taken where a panic
is propagated by default.
A new API, `call_once_force`, was added to subvert panics like is available on
Mutex as well (for when panicking is handled internally).
Adding this support was a significant enough change to the implementation that
it was just completely rewritten from scratch, primarily to avoid using a
`StaticMutex` which needs to have `destroy()` called on it at some point (a pain
to do).
Closes#31688

Add note on `str` being an unsized type in strings section of book
The book section on Rust strings mentions `&str` and `String` but does not address why `str` is not used directly. This adds a short blurb and a link to the unsized types chapter. The second draft of the book will go more in-depth on this, but this should help a bit for now. Thanks #rust for clarifying this point, and let me know if it needs rewording or different placement 😄.

Document heap allocation location guarantee
```
14:25 < aidanhs> is there any guarantee that boxes will not move the value on the heap when they are moved?
14:26 <@steveklabnik> aidanhs: ... i'm not sure if it's a guarantee, but it follows, generally
14:26 <@steveklabnik> aidanhs: moves mean memcpy, so you're memcpying the structure of the box itself, which is copying the pointer
14:26 <@steveklabnik> so the pointer won't be updated
14:26 <@steveklabnik> moves cannot do complex things like move the memory around on the heap
14:26 <@kmc> aidanhs: I would say it's guaranteed
14:27 < aidanhs> steveklabnik: yeah, that's what I was thinking, it'd be pretty strange for rust to do something, but I couldn't find any docs one way or the other
14:27 <@steveklabnik> kmc: aidanhs yeah, it's like a borderline thing that we don't explicitly guanratee but i think IS guaranteed by our other guarantees
14:27 <@steveklabnik> mostly that move == memcpy
14:28 < aidanhs> kmc: steveklabnik great thanks! would a PR to the rust reference along these lines be ok?
14:28 < jmesmon> aidanhs: I believe owning_ref has some discussion of that (stable references)
14:29 <@steveklabnik> aidanhs: i would probably take that, yeah
14:29 < aidanhs> jmesmon: thanks, I'll take a look at that

We use a 64bit integer to pass the set of attributes that is to be
removed, but the called C function expects a 32bit integer. On most
platforms this doesn't cause any problems other than being unable to
unset some attributes, but on ARM even the lower 32bit aren't handled
correctly because the 64bit value is passed in different registers, so
the C function actually sees random garbage.
So we need to fix the relevant functions to use 32bit integers instead.
Additionally we need an implementation that actually accepts 64bit
integers because some attributes can only be unset that way.
Fixes#32360
configure: update required LLVM version
Rust 1.7.0 and newer appears to require LLVM 3.6.0 or newer when
building against a version that's out of the tree with the --llvm-root
flag.

Fix unsound behaviour with null characters in thread names (issue #32475)
Previously, the thread name (&str) was converted to a CString in the
new thread, but outside unwind::try, causing a panic to continue into FFI.
This patch changes that behaviour, so that the panic instead happens
in the parent thread (where panic infrastructure is properly set up),
not the new thread.
This could potentially be a breaking change for architectures who don't
support thread names.
Hardcode accepting 0 as a valid str char boundary
If we check explicitly for index == 0, that removes the need to read the
byte at index 0, so it avoids a trip to the string's memory, and it
optimizes out the slicing index' bounds check whenever it is (a constant) zero.
Remove ungrammatical dots from the error index.
They were probably meant as a shorthand for omitted code.
Part of #32446 but there should be a separate fix for the issue.
