Reduces memory usage significantly and opens opportunities for more parallel compilation.
This PR was previously #19002 but I closed it because bors didn't seem to recognize the `r+` annotations there.
The trait has an obvious, sensible implementation directly on vectors so
the MemWriter wrapper is unnecessary. This will halt the trend towards
providing all of the vector methods on MemWriter along with eliminating
the noise caused by conversions between the two types. It also provides
the useful default Writer methods on Vec<u8>.
After the type is removed and code has been migrated, it would make
sense to add a new implementation of MemWriter with seeking support. The
simple use cases can be covered with vectors alone, and ones with the
need for seeks can use a new MemWriter implementation.

Hello,
`dylib` [seems][1] to be no longer an option for the `kind` key of the `link` attribute.
UPDATE: It should be the other way around: It [seems][1] `dylib` has been lost as a possible variant of the `kind` key of the `link` attribute. See the comment below.
Regards,
Ivan

creating a new Id object requires the format to match a subset of `ID` format defined by the DOT language. When the format did not match, the function called assert. This was not mentioned in the docs or the spec. I made the failure explicit by returning an Result<Id, ()>.
Following [the collections reform RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/235), this PR:
* Adds a new `borrow` module to libcore. The module contains traits for borrowing data (`BorrowFrom` and `BorrowFromMut`), generalized cloning (`ToOwned`), and a clone-on-write smartpointer (`Cow`).
* Deprecates the `_equiv` family of methods on `HashMap` and `HashSet` by instead generalizing the "normal" methods like `get` and `remove` to use the new `std::borrow` infrastructure.
* Generalizes `TreeMap`, `TreeSet`, `BTreeMap` and `BTreeSet` to use the new `std::borrow` infrastructure for lookups.

This is especially useful for declaring a static with external linkage in an executable. There isn't any way to do that currently since we mark everything in an executable as internal by default.
Also, a quick fix to have the no-compiler-rt target option respected when building staticlibs as well.
groundwork for better performance.
Key points:
- Separate out determining which method to use from actually selecting
a method (this should enable caching, as well as the pcwalton fast-reject strategy).
- Merge the impl selection back into method resolution and don't rely on
trait matching (this should perform better but also is needed to resolve some
kind of conflicts, see e.g. `method-two-traits-distinguished-via-where-clause.rs`)
- Purge a lot of out-of-date junk and coercions from method lookups.
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;
}
```
