Replace FNV with a faster hash function.
Hash table lookups are very hot in rustc profiles and the time taken within `FnvHash` itself is a big part of that. Although FNV is a simple hash, it processes its input one byte at a time. In contrast, Firefox has a homespun hash function that is also simple but works on multiple bytes at a time. So I tried it out and the results are compelling:
```
futures-rs-test 4.326s vs 4.212s --> 1.027x faster (variance: 1.001x, 1.007x)
helloworld 0.233s vs 0.232s --> 1.004x faster (variance: 1.037x, 1.016x)
html5ever-2016- 5.397s vs 5.210s --> 1.036x faster (variance: 1.009x, 1.006x)

issue-32062-equ 0.347s vs 0.335s --> 1.035x faster (variance: 1.033x, 1.019x)

syntex-0.42.2 32.268s vs 31.275s --> 1.032x faster (variance: 1.014x, 1.022x)

(That's a stage1 compiler doing debug builds. Results for a stage2 compiler are similar.)
The attached commit is not in a state suitable for landing because I changed the implementation of FnvHasher without changing its name (because that would have required touching many lines in the compiler). Nonetheless, it is a good place to start discussions.
Profiles show very clearly that this new hash function is a lot faster to compute than FNV. The quality of the new hash function is less clear -- it seems to do better in some cases and worse in others (judging by the number of instructions executed in `Hash{Map,Set}::get`).

Stabilize `..` in tuple (struct) patterns
I'd like to nominate `..` in tuple and tuple struct patterns for stabilization.
This feature is a relatively small extension to existing stable functionality and doesn't have known blockers.
The feature first appeared in Rust 1.10 6 months ago.
An example of use: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/36203
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/33627
r? @nikomatsakis
Diagnostics for struct path resolution errors in resolve and typeck are unified.
Self type is treated as a type alias in few places (not reachable yet).
Unsafe cell is seen in constants even through type aliases.
All checks for struct paths in typeck work on type level.
Implement the `!` type
This implements the never type (`!`) and hides it behind the feature gate `#[feature(never_type)]`. With the feature gate off, things should build as normal (although some error messages may be different). With the gate on, `!` is usable as a type and diverging type variables (ie. types that are unconstrained by anything in the code) will default to `!` instead of `()`.
E0248, E0267 & E0268 Change into issue format
r? @jonathandturner Part of #35391, #35519 and #35520. I have squashed all changes into a single commit. Please review the changes.
E0248 Change in issue format
E0267 UT New Format
E0268 UT New Format
E0267 & E0268 New Error Format
Refactor constant evaluation to use a single error reporting function
that reports a type-error-like message.
Also, unify all error codes with the "constant evaluation error" message
to just E0080, and similarly for a few other duplicate codes. The old
situation was a total mess, and now that we have *something* we can
further iterate on the UX.
