e56dbad9f7 librustc: Properly compare implementation method type parameter bounds
with the corresponding trait parameter bounds.

This is a version of the patch in PR #12611 by Florian Hahn, modified to
address Niko's feedback.

It does not address the issue of duplicate type parameter bounds, nor
does it address the issue of implementation-defined methods that contain
*fewer* bounds than the trait, because Niko's review indicates that this
should not be necessary (and indeed I believe it is not). A test has
been added to ensure that this works.

This will break code like:

    trait Foo {
        fn bar<T:Baz>();
    }

    impl Foo for Boo {
        fn bar<T:Baz + Quux>() { ... }
        //             ^~~~ ERROR
    }

This will be rejected because the implementation requires *more* bounds
than the trait. It can be fixed by either adding the missing bound to
the trait:

    trait Foo {
        fn bar<T:Baz + Quux>();
        //             ^~~~
    }

    impl Foo for Boo {
        fn bar<T:Baz + Quux>() { ... }  // OK
    }

Or by removing the bound from the impl:

    trait Foo {
        fn bar<T:Baz>();
    }

    impl Foo for Boo {
        fn bar<T:Baz>() { ... }  // OK
        //       ^ remove Quux
    }

This patch imports the relevant tests from #2687, as well as the test
case in #5886, which is fixed as well by this patch.

Closes #2687.
Closes #5886.
