This "finishes" the generic deriving code (which I started in #5640), in the sense it supports everything that I can think of being useful. (Including lifetimes and type parameters on methods and traits, arguments and return values of (almost) any type, static methods.)
It closes#6149, but met with #6257, so the following doesn't work:
```rust
#[deriving(TotalEq)]
struct Foo<'self>(&'self int);
```
(It only fails for `TotalOrd`, `TotalEq` and `Clone`, since they are the only ones that call a method directly on sub-elements of the type, which means that the auto-deref interferes with the pointer.)
It also makes `Rand` (chooses a random variant, fills the fields with random values, including recursively for recursive types) and `ToStr` (`x.to_str()` is the same as `fmt!("%?", x)`) derivable, as well as converting IterBytes to the generic code (which made the code 2.5x shorter, more robust and added support for tuple structs).
({En,De}codable are trickier, so I'll convert them over later.)
@brson: r? [please ignore the other one that was accidentally based off master due to back-button-bugs in github.com]
My goal is to resolve the question of whether we want to encourage (by example) consistent use of pub to make identifiers publicly-accessible, even in syntax extensions. (If people don't want that, then we can just let this pull request die.)
This is part one of two. Part two, whose contents should be clear from the FIXME's in this commit, would land after this gets incorporated into a snapshot.
(The eventual goal is to address issue #6009 , which was implied by my choice of branch name, but not mentioned in the pull request, so github did not notice it.)
The former fills each field of a struct or enum variant with a random
value (and picks a random enum variant). The latter makes the .to_str
method have the same output as fmt!("%?", ..).
This adds support for static methods, and arguments of most types, traits with
type parameters, methods with type parameters (and lifetimes for both), as well
as making the code more robust to support deriving on types with lifetimes (i.e.
'self).
I just had `git apply` fix most of them and then did a quick skim over the diff to fix a few cases where it did the wrong thing (mostly replacing tabs with 4 spaces, when someone's editor had them at 8 spaces).

Sorry this is so big, and sorry the first commit is just titled 'wip'.
Some interesting bits
* [LocalServices](f9069baa70) - This is the set of runtime capabilities that *all* Rust code should expect access to, including the local heap, GC, logging, unwinding.
* [impl Reader, etc. for Option](5fbb0949a5) - Constructors like `File::open` return Option<FileStream>. This lets you write I/O code without ever unwrapping an option.
This series adds a lot of [documentation](https://github.com/brson/rust/blob/io/src/libcore/rt/io/mod.rs#L11) to `core::rt::io`.
The drop block has been deprecated for quite some time. This patch series removes support for parsing it and all the related machinery that made drop work.
As a side feature of all this, I also added the ability to annote fields in structs. This allows comments to be properly associated with an individual field. However, I didn't update `rustdoc` to integrate these comment blocks into the documentation it generates.

A month's worth of parser cleanup here. Much of this is new comments and renaming. A number of these commits also remove unneeded code. Probably the biggest refactor here is splitting "parse_item_or_view_item" into two functions; it turns out that the only overlap between items in foreign modules and items in regular modules was macros, so this refactor should make things substantially easier for future maintenance.
before this change, the parser would parse 14.a() as a method call, but
would parse 14.ø() as the floating-point number 14. followed by a function
call. This is because it was checking is_alpha, rather than ident_start,
and was therefore wrong with respect to unicode.
In principle, it seems like a nice idea to abstract over the two
functions that parse blocks (one with inner attrs allowed, one not).
However, the existing one wound up making things more complex than
just having two separate functions, especially after the obsolete
syntax is (will be) removed.
prec.rs no longer had much to do with precedence; the token->binop
function fits better in token.rs, and the one-liner defining the
precedence of 'as' can go next to the other precedence stuff in
ast_util.rs

Unwinding through macros now happens as a call to the trait function `FailWithCause::fail_with()`, which consumes self, allowing to use a more generic failure object in the future.

This also reverts some changes to TLS that were leaking memory.

This reverts commit 6030e3982a.
This reorders error messages in ways that aren't intended. A more satisfying solution will require an interface that allows diagnostics to be grouped together, so that messages that logically belong together aren't reordered.
#4569
Closes#3083.
This takes a similar approach to #5797 where a set is present on the `tcx` of used mutable definitions. Everything is by default warned about, and analyses must explicitly add mutable definitions to this set so they're not warned about.
Most of this was pretty straightforward, although there was one caveat that I ran into when implementing it. Apparently when the old modes are used (or maybe `legacy_modes`, I'm not sure) some different code paths are taken to cause spurious warnings to be issued which shouldn't be issued. I'm not really sure how modes even worked, so I was having a lot of trouble tracking this down. I figured that because they're a legacy thing that I'd just de-mode the compiler so that the warnings wouldn't be a problem anymore (or at least for the compiler).
Other than that, the entire compiler compiles without warnings of unused mutable variables. To prevent bad warnings, #5965 should be landed (which in turn is waiting on #5963) before landing this. I figured I'd stick it out for review anyway though.
