adjusting a few foreign functions that were declared with by-ref
mode. This also allows us to remove by-val mode in the near future.
With copy mode, though, we have to be careful because Rust will implicitly pass
somethings by pointer but this may not be the C ABI rules. For example, rust
will pass a struct Foo as a Foo*. So I added some code into the adapters to
fix this (though the C ABI rules may put the pointer back, oh well).
This patch also includes a lint mode for the use of by-ref mode
in foreign functions as the semantics of this have changed.
Work towards #4846.
- Institute new region defaults where all omitted regions get a fresh lifetime.
- Require explicit region names except in functions.
- Fix a bug in region parameterization inference. I've been putting this off because it will not be important when we remove RP inference in favor of explicit declarations, but then it was blocking this patch.

The basic idea is that we add a new kind of adjustment, AutoAddEnv, that pads
an extern fn into a closure by adding the extra NULL word. Then there are a few
misc changes in trans to get the LLVM types to match up.
Fixes#4808.
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.
