This commit makes several changes to `std::thread` in preparation for
final stabilization:
* It removes the ability to handle panics from `scoped` children; see
#20807 for discussion
* It adds a `JoinHandle` structure, now returned from `spawn`, which
makes it possible to join on children that do not share data from
their parent's stack. The child is automatically detached when the
handle is dropped, and the handle cannot be copied due to Posix
semantics.
* It moves all static methods from `std:🧵:Thread` to free
functions in `std::thread`. This was done in part because, due to the
above changes, there are effectively no direct `Thread` constructors,
and the static methods have tended to feel a bit awkward.
* Adds an `io::Result` around the `Builder` methods `scoped` and
`spawn`, making it possible to handle OS errors when creating
threads. The convenience free functions entail an unwrap.
* Stabilizes the entire module. Despite the fact that the API is
changing somewhat here, this is part of a long period of baking and
the changes are addressing all known issues prior to alpha2. If
absolutely necessary, further breaking changes can be made prior to beta.
Closes#20807
[breaking-change]
This includes everything necessary for promoting borrows of constant rvalues to `'static`.
That is, `&expr` will have the type `&'static T` if `const T: &'static T = &expr;` is valid.
There is a small exception, dereferences of raw pointers, as they misbehave.
They still "work" in constants as I didn't want to break legitimate uses (are there any?).
The qualification done here can be expanded to allow simple CTFE via `const fn`.
Highlights:
* Adds an 'uninstall.sh' script to `/usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh`, the path to which is printed during installation.
* Components can be deselected during install, like `install.sh --without=rust-docs`.
* Components can be listed with `install.sh --list-components`.
* Vastly reduces spew during install (but supporting a `--verbose` option).
Typicall install run looks like:

Rust is ready to roll.

Needs to be merged right before corresponding PRs to cargo and rust-packaging.

It's not clear what this means, because a macro in item position can expand to zero or more items. For now we disallow it, which is technically a
[breaking-change]
but is landing without an RFC. The `pub` keyword previously had no effect, which seems quite unintended.
Fixes#18317.
Fixes#14660.
This PR replaces uses of `os::getenv` with newly introduced `env::var{,_os}`.
Mostly did this as a background activity to procrastinate from procrastinating.
Tests appear to build and run fine. This includes benchmarks from test/bench directory.
Some function signatures have changed, so this is a [breaking-change].
In particular, radixes and numerical values of digits are represented by `u32` now.
Part of #22240
`PathBuf` does implement `Hash`, but `Path` doesn't. This makes it
annoying if you have a `HashMap` with `PathBuf`s as keys, because
it means you have to convert a `Path` into a `PathBuf` and get a
reference to it simply to perform operations on the `HashMap`!
Fixes#22047
`Range<u64>` and `Range<i64>` may be longer than usize::MAX on 32-bit
platforms, and thus they cannot fulfill the protocol for
ExactSizeIterator. We don't want a nonobvious platform dependency in
basic iterator traits, so the trait impl is removed.
The logic of this change assumes that usize is at least 32-bit.
This is technically a breaking change; note that `Range<usize>` and
`Range<isize>` are always ExactSizeIterators.

Add `#[rustc_error]` annotation, which causes trans to signal an error
if found on the `main()` function. This lets you write tests that live
in `compile-fail` but are expected to compile successfully. This is
handy when you have many small variations on a theme that you want to
keep together, and you are just testing the type checker, not the
runtime semantics.

Added all active features to the list in reference.md.
Added a second note about keeping the reference.md list up-to-date to the bottom of the list, since not everyone (including me) reads the big comment at the top of it. :)
Ensured that the feature gate list in reference.md is kept in alphabetical order.
Re-tag `slicing_syntax` as `Accepted`.
Rollup merge (373cbab5b08d6630da58f28d2166c19afc327fa6) of PR #20723
accidentally reverted a portion of commit
8327bcc167661c26ca5c6b967309ff745d302329 which shifted
`slicing_syntax` from Active to Accepted.
