Coherence requires that libcore's traits be implemented in libcore for ~[T] and
~str (due to them being language defined types). These implementations cannot
live in libcore forever, but for now, until Heap/Box/Uniq is a lang item, these
implementations must reside inside of libcore. While not perfect
implementations, these shouldn't reside in libcore for too long.
With some form of lang item these implementations can be in a proper crate
because the lang item will not be present in libcore.
This moves as much allocation as possible from teh std::str module into
core::str. This includes essentially all non-allocating functionality, mostly
iterators and slicing and such.
This primarily splits the Str trait into only having the as_slice() method,
adding a new StrAllocating trait to std::str which contains the relevant new
allocation methods. This is a breaking change if any of the methods of "trait
Str" were overriden. The old functionality can be restored by implementing both
the Str and StrAllocating traits.

This commit adds a new trait, MutableVectorAllocating, which represents
functions on vectors which can allocate.
This is another extension trait to slices which should be removed once a lang
item exists for the ~ allocation.
This implements all traits inside of core::num for all the primitive types,
removing all the functionality from libstd. The std modules reexport all of the
necessary items from the core modules.
This strips out all string-related functionality from the num module. The
inherited functionality is all that will be implemented in libcore (for now).
Primarily, libcore will not implement the Float trait or any string-related
functionality.
It may be possible to migrate string parsing functionality into libcore in the
future, but for now it will remain in libstd.
All functionality in core::num is reexported in std::num.
This commit removes the std::{managed, reference} modules. The modules serve
essentially no purpose, and the only free function removed was `managed::ptr_eq`
which can be achieved by comparing references.

This removes the TotalOrd and TotalEq implementation macros, they will be added
later to the numeric modules (where the other comparison implementations live).

Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.

How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

The underlying I/O objects implement a good deal of various options here and
there for tuning network sockets and how they perform. Most of this is a relic
of "whatever libuv provides", but these options are genuinely useful.
It is unclear at this time whether these options should be well supported or
not, or whether they have correct names or not. For now, I believe it's better
to expose the functionality than to not, but all new methods are added with
an #[experimental] annotation.
Currently, rustc requires that a linkage be a product of 100% rlibs or 100%
dylibs. This is to satisfy the requirement that each object appear at most once
in the final output products. This is a bit limiting, and the upcoming libcore
library cannot exist as a dylib, so these rules must change.
The goal of this commit is to enable *some* use cases for mixing rlibs and
dylibs, primarily libcore's use case. It is not targeted at allowing an
exhaustive number of linkage flavors.
There is a new dependency_format module in rustc which calculates what format
each upstream library should be linked as in each output type of the current
unit of compilation. The module itself contains many gory details about what's
going on here.
cc #10729
Update the example to make the usage of `pub mod foo;` much more
apparent, as well as using an example where setting the visibility of
the module is actually necessary.
The `std::bitflags::bitflags!` macro did not provide support for
adding attributes to the generates structure, due to limitations in
the parser for macros. This patch works around the parser limitations
by requiring a `flags` keyword in the `bitflags!` invocations:
bitflags!(
#[deriving(Hash)]
#[doc="Three flags"]
flags Flags: u32 {
FlagA = 0x00000001,
FlagB = 0x00000010,
FlagC = 0x00000100
}
)
The intent of `std::bitflags` is to allow building type-safe wrappers
around C-style flags APIs. But in addition to construction these flags
from the Rust side, we need a way to convert them from the C
side. This patch adds a `from_bits` function, which is unsafe since
the bits in question may not represent a valid combination of flags.
Finally, this patch changes `std::io::FilePermissions` from an exposed
`u32` representation to a typesafe representation (that only allows valid
flag combinations) using the `std::bitflags`.

While there are various references to the work compositionality on the web, I can't find any reference to it being an actual word. My understanding is that composability is what's actually meant here anyway.
If an unbalanced [ exists in a string or comment, this should not be
considered when calculating the indent at the top level.
Similarly, when testing for ({/}) to see if we're at the top level to
begin with, strings and comments should be skipped.
