The first six commits are from an earlier PR (#19858) and have already been reviewed. This PR makes an awful hack in the compiler to accommodate slices both natively and in the index a range form. After a snapshot we can hopefully add the new Index impls and then we can remove these awful hacks.

This commit performs a second pass for stabilization over the `std::ptr` module.
The specific actions taken were:
* The `RawPtr` trait was renamed to `PtrExt`
* The `RawMutPtr` trait was renamed to `MutPtrExt`
* The module name `ptr` is now stable.
* These functions were all marked `#[stable]` with no modification:
* `null`
* `null_mut`
* `swap`
* `replace`
* `read`
* `write`
* `PtrExt::is_null`
* `PtrExt::offset`
* These functions remain unstable:
* `as_ref`, `as_mut` - the return value of an `Option` is not fully expressive
as null isn't the only bad value, and it's unclear
whether we want to commit to these functions at this
time. The reference/lifetime semantics as written are
also problematic in how they encourage arbitrary
lifetimes.
* `zero_memory` - This function is currently not used at all in the
distribution, and in general it plays a broader role in the
"working with unsafe pointers" story. This story is not yet
fully developed, so at this time the function remains
unstable for now.
* `read_and_zero` - This function remains unstable for largely the same
reasons as `zero_memory`.
* These functions are now all deprecated:
* `PtrExt::null` - call `ptr::null` or `ptr::null_mut` instead.
* `PtrExt::to_uint` - use an `as` expression instead.
* `PtrExt::is_not_null` - use `!p.is_null()` instead.
Since runtime is removed, rust has no tasks anymore and everything is moving
from being task-* to thread-*. Let’s rename TaskRng as well!
* Rename TaskRng to ThreadRng
* Rename task_rng to thread_rng

This commit is part of a series that introduces a `std::thread` API to
replace `std::task`.
In the new API, `spawn` returns a `JoinGuard`, which by default will
join the spawned thread when dropped. It can also be used to join
explicitly at any time, returning the thread's result. Alternatively,
the spawned thread can be explicitly detached (so no join takes place).
As part of this change, Rust processes now terminate when the main
thread exits, even if other detached threads are still running, moving
Rust closer to standard threading models. This new behavior may break code
that was relying on the previously implicit join-all.
In addition to the above, the new thread API also offers some built-in
support for building blocking abstractions in user space; see the module
doc for details.

This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the
facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system.
Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API
is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be
removed very soon.

followed by a semicolon.
This allows code like `vec![1i, 2, 3].len();` to work.
This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting
semicolons after them, such as:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b)
assert!(c == d)
println(...);
}
It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons:
local_data_key!(foo)
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}
Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as
follows:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b);
assert!(c == d);
println(...);
}
local_data_key!(foo);
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}

This commit collapses the various prelude traits for slices into just one trait:
* SlicePrelude/SliceAllocPrelude => SliceExt
* CloneSlicePrelude/CloneSliceAllocPrelude => CloneSliceExt
* OrdSlicePrelude/OrdSliceAllocPrelude => OrdSliceExt
* PartialEqSlicePrelude => PartialEqSliceExt
This change makes the compiler no longer infer whether types (structures
and enumerations) implement the `Copy` trait (and thus are implicitly
copyable). Rather, you must implement `Copy` yourself via `impl Copy for
MyType {}`.
A new warning has been added, `missing_copy_implementations`, to warn
you if a non-generic public type has been added that could have
implemented `Copy` but didn't.
For convenience, you may *temporarily* opt out of this behavior by using
`#![feature(opt_out_copy)]`. Note though that this feature gate will never be
accepted and will be removed by the time that 1.0 is released, so you should
transition your code away from using it.
This breaks code like:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
Change this code to:
#[deriving(Show)]
struct Point2D {
x: int,
y: int,
}
impl Copy for Point2D {}
fn main() {
let mypoint = Point2D {
x: 1,
y: 1,
};
let otherpoint = mypoint;
println!("{}{}", mypoint, otherpoint);
}
This is the backwards-incompatible part of #13231.

At the same time remove the `pub use` of the variants in favor of accessing
through the enum type itself. This is a breaking change as the `Found` and

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 240][rfc] when applied to the standard
library. It primarily deprecates the entirety of `string::raw`, `vec::raw`,
`slice::raw`, and `str::raw` in favor of associated functions, methods, and
other free functions. The detailed renaming is:
* slice::raw::buf_as_slice => slice::from_raw_buf
* slice::raw::mut_buf_as_slice => slice::from_raw_mut_buf
* slice::shift_ptr => deprecated with no replacement
* slice::pop_ptr => deprecated with no replacement
* str::raw::from_utf8 => str::from_utf8_unchecked
* str::raw::c_str_to_static_slice => str::from_c_str
* str::raw::slice_bytes => deprecated for slice_unchecked (slight semantic diff)
* str::raw::slice_unchecked => str.slice_unchecked
* string::raw::from_parts => String::from_raw_parts
* string::raw::from_buf_len => String::from_raw_buf_len
* string::raw::from_buf => String::from_raw_buf
* string::raw::from_utf8 => String::from_utf8_unchecked
* vec::raw::from_buf => Vec::from_raw_buf
All previous functions exist in their `#[deprecated]` form, and the deprecation
messages indicate how to migrate to the newer variants.

Previously, the entire runtime API surface was publicly exposed, but
that is neither necessary nor desirable. This commit hides most of the
module, using librustrt directly as needed. The arrangement will need to

This commit makes `Cow` more usable by allowing it to be applied to
unsized types (as was intended) and providing some basic `ToOwned`
implementations on slice types. It also corrects the documentation for
`Cow` to no longer mention `DerefMut`, and adds an example.
This commit changes `AsSlice` to work on unsized types, and changes the
`impl` for `&[T]` to `[T]`. Aside from making the trait more general,
this also helps some ongoing work with method resolution changes.
This is a breaking change: code that uses generics bounded by `AsSlice`
will have to change. In particular, such code previously often took
arguments of type `V` where `V: AsSlice<T>` by value. These should now
be taken by reference:
```rust
fn foo<Sized? V: AsSlice<T>>(v: &V) { .. }
```
A few std lib functions have been changed accordingly.

Following [the collections reform
RFC](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/235),
this commit adds a new `borrow` module to libcore.
The module contains traits for borrowing data (`BorrowFrom` and
`BorrowFromMut`),
generalized cloning (`ToOwned`), and a clone-on-write smartpointer (`Cow`).
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}

or

pub enum Foo {

B
}
fn main() {

* Renames/deprecates the simplest and most obvious methods
* Adds FIXME(conventions)s for outstanding work
* Marks "handled" methods as unstable
NOTE: the semantics of reserve and reserve_exact have changed!
Other methods have had their semantics changed as well, but in a
way that should obviously not typecheck if used incorrectly.
Lots of work and breakage to come, but this handles most of the core
APIs and most eggregious breakage. Future changes should *mostly* focus on
niche collections, APIs, or simply back-compat additions.

This commit renames a number of extension traits for slices and string
slices, now that they have been refactored for DST. In many cases,
multiple extension traits could now be consolidated. Further
consolidation will be possible with generalized where clauses.
The renamings are consistent with the [new `-Prelude`
suffix](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/344). There are probably
a few more candidates for being renamed this way, but that is left for
API stabilization of the relevant modules.
Because this renames traits, it is a:

As part of the collections reform RFC, this commit removes all collections
traits in favor of inherent methods on collections themselves. All methods
should continue to be available on all collections.
This is a breaking change with all of the collections traits being removed and
no longer being in the prelude. In order to update old code you should move the
trait implementations to inherent implementations directly on the type itself.
Note that some traits had default methods which will also need to be implemented
to maintain backwards compatibility.

The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

This PR changes the signature of several methods from `foo(self, ...)` to
`foo(&self, ...)`/`foo(&mut self, ...)`, but there is no breakage of the usage
of these methods due to the autoref nature of `method.call()`s. This PR also
removes the lifetime parameter from some traits (`Trait<'a>` -> `Trait`). These
changes break any use of the extension traits for generic programming, but
those traits are not meant to be used for generic programming in the first
place. In the whole rust distribution there was only one misuse of a extension
trait as a bound, which got corrected (the bound was unnecessary and got
removed) as part of this PR.

Spring cleaning is here! In the Fall! This commit removes quite a large amount
of deprecated functionality from the standard libraries. I tried to ensure that
only old deprecated functionality was removed.
This is removing lots and lots of deprecated features, so this is a breaking
change. Please consult the deprecation messages of the deleted code to see how
to migrate code forward if it still needs migration.
