22179f49e5 librustc: Feature gate subslice matching in non-tail positions.
This breaks code that uses the `..xs` form anywhere but at the end of a
slice. For example:

    match foo {
        [ 1, ..xs, 2 ]
        [ ..xs, 1, 2 ]
    }

Add the `#![feature(advanced_slice_patterns)]` gate to reenable the
syntax.

RFC #54.

Closes #16951.

9b3f9d9444 Change exhaustiveness analysis to permit multiple constructors per pattern
Slice patterns are different from the rest in that a single slice pattern
does not have a distinct constructor if it contains a variable-length subslice
pattern. For example, the pattern [a, b, ..tail] can match a slice of length 2, 3, 4
and so on.

As a result, the decision tree for exhaustiveness and redundancy analysis should
explore each of those constructors separately to determine if the pattern could be useful
when specialized for any of them.
