This removes the stacking of type parameters that occurs when invoking
trait methods, and fixes all places in the standard library that were
relying on it. It is somewhat awkward in places; I think we'll probably
want something like the `Foo::<for T>::new()` syntax.
If they are on the trait then it is extremely annoying to use them as
generic parameters to a function, e.g. with the iterator param on the trait
itself, if one was to pass an Extendable<int> to a function that filled it
either from a Range or a Map<VecIterator>, one needs to write something
like:
fn foo<E: Extendable<int, Range<int>> +
Extendable<int, Map<&'self int, int, VecIterator<int>>>
(e: &mut E, ...) { ... }
since using a generic, i.e. `foo<E: Extendable<int, I>, I: Iterator<int>>`
means that `foo` takes 2 type parameters, and the caller has to specify them
(which doesn't work anyway, as they'll mismatch with the iterators used in
`foo` itself).
This patch changes it to:
fn foo<E: Extendable<int>>(e: &mut E, ...) { ... }
Write external iterators for Difference, Sym. Difference, Intersection
and Union set operations.
These iterators are generic insofar that they could work on any ordered
sequence iterators, even though they are type specialized to the
TreeSetIterator in this case.
Looking at the `check` function in the treeset tests, rustc seems
unwilling to compile a function resembling::
fn check<'a, T: Iterator<&'a int>>(... )
so the tests for these iterators are still running the legacy loop
protocol.
Change the former repetition::
for 5.times { }
to::
do 5.times { }
.times() cannot be broken with `break` or `return` anymore; for those
cases, use a numerical range loop instead.
.intersection(), .union() etc methods in trait std::container::Set use
internal iters. Remove these methods from the trait.
I reported issue #8154 for the reinstatement of iterator-based set algebra
methods to the Set trait.
For bitv and treemap, that lack Iterator implementations of set
operations, preserve them as methods directly on the types themselves.
For HashSet, these methods are replaced by the present .union_iter()
etc.
Fixes most of #4989. I didn't add Persistent{Set,Map} since the only
persistent data structure is fun_treemap and its functionality is
currently too limited to build a trait out of.
The free-standing functions in f32, f64, i8, i16, i32, i64, u8, u16,
u32, u64, float, int, and uint are replaced with generic functions in
num instead.
This means that instead of having to know everywhere what the type is, like
~~~
f64::sin(x)
~~~
You can simply write code that uses the type-generic versions in num instead, this works for all types that implement the corresponding trait in num.
~~~
num::sin(x)
~~~
Note 1: If you were previously using any of those functions, just replace them
with the corresponding function with the same name in num.
Note 2: If you were using a function that corresponds to an operator, use the
operator instead.
Note 3: This is just https://github.com/mozilla/rust/pull/7090 reopened against master.

Change the signature of Iterator.size_hint() to always have a lower bound.
Implement .size_hint() on all remaining iterators (if it differs from the default).
Both extra::treemap::TreeMap and extra::treemap::TreeSet have
corresponding iterators TreeMapIterator and TreeSetIterator.
Unfortunately, the tests and extra::serialize use the older .each.
Update all the dependent code, and remove .each.

the `test/run-pass/class-trait-bounded-param.rs` test was xfailed and
written in an ancient dialect of Rust so I've just removed it
this also removes `to_vec` from DList because it's provided by
`std::iter::to_vec`
an Iterator implementation is added for OptVec but some transitional
internal iterator methods are still left
