Add the ability to merge spans to codemap
This PR adds the ability to merge Spans. To do so, it builds on the Codemap's ability to verify the locations of spans, namely that following can be verified:
* the expn_id of both spans much match
* the lhs span needs to end on the same line the rhs span begins
* the lhs span must start at or before the rhs span
If all of these are met, a new span is returned that is min(lo), max(hi) of the two spans.
This PR also removes an older Span merge, as this new functionality subsumes it.

Refactor away RBML from rustc_metadata.
RBML and `ty{en,de}code` have had their long-overdue purge. Summary of changes:
* Metadata is now a tree encoded in post-order and with relative backward references pointing to children nodes. With auto-deriving and type safety, this makes maintenance and adding new information to metadata painless and bug-free by default. It's also more compact and cache-friendly (cache misses should be proportional to the depth of the node being accessed, not the number of siblings as in EBML/RBML).
* Metadata sizes have been reduced, for `libcore` it went down 16% (`8.38MB` -> `7.05MB`) and for `libstd` 14% (`3.53MB` -> `3.03MB`), while encoding more or less the same information
* Specialization is used in the bundled `libserialize` (crates.io `rustc_serialize` remains unaffected) to customize the encoding (and more importantly, decoding) of various types, most notably those interned in the `TyCtxt`. Some of this abuses a soundness hole pending a fix (cc @aturon), but when that fix arrives, we'll move to macros 1.1 `#[derive]` and custom `TyCtxt`-aware serialization traits.
* Enumerating children of modules from other crates is now orthogonal to describing those items via `Def` - this is a step towards bridging crate-local HIR and cross-crate metadata
* `CrateNum` has been moved to `rustc` and both it and `NodeId` are now newtypes instead of `u32` aliases, for specializing their decoding. This is `[syntax-breaking]` (cc @Manishearth ).

This commit adds syntax extension forms matching the types for procedural macros 2.0 (RFC #1566), these still require the usual syntax extension boiler plate, but this is a first step towards proper implementation and should be useful for macros 1.1 stuff too.
Supports both attribute-like and function-like macros.
A long time ago non-panicking `unwrap` methods were renamed to `into_inner` in this Pull Request: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/19149
Looks like this doc comment was not updated however.
trans: Only instantiate #[inline] functions in codegen units referencing them
This PR changes how `#[inline]` functions are translated. Before, there was one "master instance" of the function with `external` linkage and a number of on-demand instances with `available_externally` linkage in each codegen unit that referenced the function. This had two downsides:
* Public functions marked with `#[inline]` would be present in machine code of libraries unnecessarily (see #36280 for an example)
* LLVM would crash on `i686-pc-windows-msvc` due to what I suspect to be a bug in LLVM's Win32 exception handling code, because it doesn't like `available_externally` there (#36309).
This PR changes the behavior, so that there is no master instance and only on-demand instances with `internal` linkage. The downside of this is potential code-bloat if LLVM does not completely inline away the `internal` instances because then there'd be N instances of the function instead of 1. However, this can only become a problem when using more than one codegen unit per crate.

This flag takes a FILTER argument and instructs the test runner to skip
the tests whose names contain the word FILTER. --skip can be used
several times.
