parameters
This involves numerous substeps:
1. Treat Self same as any other parameter.
2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters.
3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method,
eliminating odd discrepancies.
4. Stop doing unspeakable things to static methods and instead just use
the natural types, now that we can easily add the type parameters from
trait into the method's polytype.
5. No doubt some more. It was hard to separate these into distinct commits.

* The # character no longer needs to be escaped
* The \-based escapes have been removed
* '{{' is now an escape for '{'
* '}}' is now an escape for '}'

Adds the option -Zsave-analysis which will dump the results of syntax and type checking into CSV files. These can be interpreted by tools such as DXR to provide semantic information about Rust programs for code search, cross-reference, etc.

With this change, rustc creates a unique type identifier for types in debuginfo. These type identifiers are used by LLVM to correctly handle link-time-optimization scenarios but also help rustc with dealing with inlining from other crates. For more information, see the documentation block at the top of librustc/middle/trans/debuginfo.rs.

The following features have been removed
* box [a, b, c]
* ~[a, b, c]
* box [a, ..N]
* ~[a, ..N]
* ~[T] (as a type)
* deprecated_owned_vector lint
All users of ~[T] should move to using Vec<T> instead.
This commit is the final step in the libstd facade, #13851. The purpose of this
commit is to move libsync underneath the standard library, behind the facade.
This will allow core primitives like channels, queues, and atomics to all live
in the same location.
There were a few notable changes and a few breaking changes as part of this
movement:
* The `Vec` and `String` types are reexported at the top level of libcollections
* The `unreachable!()` macro was copied to libcore
* The `std::rt::thread` module was moved to librustrt, but it is still
reexported at the same location.
* The `std::comm` module was moved to libsync
* The `sync::comm` module was moved under `sync::comm`, and renamed to `duplex`.
It is now a private module with types/functions being reexported under
`sync::comm`. This is a breaking change for any existing users of duplex
streams.
* All concurrent queues/deques were moved directly under libsync. They are also
all marked with #![experimental] for now if they are public.
* The `task_pool` and `future` modules no longer live in libsync, but rather
live under `std::sync`. They will forever live at this location, but they may
move to libsync if the `std::task` module moves as well.

This commit uses the same trick as ~/Box to map Gc<T> to @T internally inside
the compiler. This moves a number of implementations of traits to the `gc`
module in the standard library.
This removes functions such as `Gc::new`, `Gc::borrow`, and `Gc::ptr_eq` in
favor of the more modern equivalents, `box(GC)`, `Deref`, and pointer equality.
The Gc pointer itself should be much more useful now, and subsequent commits
will move the compiler away from @T towards Gc<T>

If this breaks your code, take a deep breath, go for a walk, and
consider why you're relying on the sign extension semantics of
enum-to-float casts.

This uncovered some dead code, most notably in middle/liveness.rs, which I think suggests there must be something fishy with that part of the code.
The #[allow(dead_code)] annotations on some of the fields I am not super happy about but as I understand, marker type may disappear at some point.
Previously, constants used unsigned extension, while non-constants used
signed extension. This unifies both paths to use signed extension.
If this breaks your code, take a deep breath, go for a walk, and
consider why you're relying on the sign extension semantics of
enum-to-float casts.

Both of these items are surfaced as a DefTy, so some extra logic was needed in
the decoder module to figure out whether one is actually an enum or whether it's
a typedef.
Closes#14757
All rust functions are internal implementation details with respect to the ABI
exposed by crates, but extern fns are public components of the ABI and shouldn't
be stripped. This commit serializes reachable extern fns to metadata, so when
LTO is performed all of their symbols are not stripped.
Closes#14500
This commit carries out the request from issue #14678:
> The method `Iterator::len()` is surprising, as all the other uses of
> `len()` do not consume the value. `len()` would make more sense to be
> called `count()`, but that would collide with the current
> `Iterator::count(|T| -> bool) -> unit` method. That method, however, is
> a bit redundant, and can be easily replaced with
> `iter.filter(|x| x < 5).count()`.
> After this change, we could then define the `len()` method
> on `iter::ExactSize`.
Closes#14678.

In addition to avoiding 16-byte filenames with bytecode files, this commit also
avoids 16-byte filenames with object files pulled in from native libraries.
LLDB contains a bug that makes it crash if an archive it reads
contains a file the name of which is exactly 16 bytes long. This
bug recently has made it impossible to debug Rust applications with
LLDB because some standard libraries triggered it indirectly:
For rlibs, rustc includes the LLVM bytecode in the archive, giving
it the extension ".bc.deflate". For liballoc (for example) this
results in the 16 character filename "alloc.bc.deflate", which is
bad.
This commit replaces the ".bc.deflate" suffix with
".bytecode.deflate" which itself is already longer than 16 bytes,
thus making sure that the bug won't be run into anymore.
The bug could still be run into with 14 character filenames because
then the .o files will trigger it. However, this is much more rare
and working around it would introduce more complexity than necessary
at the moment. It can always be done later on, if the need arises.
Fixes#14356.
Division and remainder by 0 are undefined behavior, and are detected at runtime.
This commit adds support for ensuring that MIN / -1 is also checked for at
runtime, as this would cause signed overflow, or undefined behvaior.
