Major changes are:
- replace ~[ty_param] with Generics structure, which includes
both OptVec<TyParam> and OptVec<Lifetime>;
- the use of syntax::opt_vec to avoid allocation for empty lists;
cc #4846
This patch series is doing a couple things with the ultimate goal of removing `#[allow(vecs_implicitly_copyable)]`, although I'm not quite there yet. The main change is passing around `@~str`s in most places, and using `ref`s in others. As far as I could tell, there are no performance changes with these patches, and all the tests pass on my mac.
r? @graydon - This is for greater uniformity (for example, macros that generate
tuples). rustc already supported 1-tuple patterns, but there was no
way to construct a 1-tuple term.
@graydon , as far as your comment on #4898 - it did turn out to be solvable inside the macro (since @luqmana already fixed it using structs instead), but I still think it's a good idea to allow 1-tuples, for uniformity. I don't think anyone is likely to trip over it, and I'm not too worried that it changes the amount of ambiguity.

- Moved ToStr implementation of unsigned integers to uint-template.rs.
- Marked the `str()` function as deprecated.
- Forwarded all conversion functions to `core::num::to_str_common()`
and `core::num::from_str_common()`.
- Fixed most places in the codebase where `to_str()` is being used.
- Added uint-template to_str and from_str overflow tests.
Changes:
- Refactor move mode computation
- Removes move mode arguments, unary move, capture clauses
(though they still parse for backwards compatibility)
- Simplify how moves are handled in trans
- Fix a number of illegal copies that cropped up
- Workaround for bug involving def-ids in params
(see details below)
Future work (I'll open bugs for these...):
- Improve error messages for moves that are due
to bindings
- Add support for moving owned content like a.b.c
to borrow check, test in trans (but I think it'll
"just work")
- Proper fix for def-ids in params
Def ids in params:
Move captures into a map instead of recomputing.
This is a workaround for a larger bug having to do with the def-ids associated
with ty_params, which are not always properly preserved when inlining. I am
not sure of my preferred fix for the larger bug yet. This current fix removes
the only code in trans that I know of which relies on ty_param def-ids, but
feels fragile.
- Make `extern fn()` assignable to any closure type, rather than
a subtype.
- Remove unused int_ty_set and float_ty_set
- Refactor variable unification and make it more DRY
- Do fn sub/lub/glb on the level of fn_sig
- Rename infer::to_str::ToStr to infer::to_str::InferStr
- Capitalize names of various types
- Correct hashing of FnMeta
- Convert various records-of-fns into structs-of-fns. This is both
eliminating use of deprecated features and more forwards compatible
with fn reform.
