This implements RFC 39. Omitted lifetimes in return values will now be
inferred to more useful defaults, and an error is reported if a lifetime
in a return type is omitted and one of the two lifetime elision rules
does not specify what it should be.
This primarily breaks two uncommon code patterns. The first is this:
unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &Foo {
...
}
This should be changed to:
unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &'static Foo {
...
}
The second pattern that needs to be changed is this:
enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
Borrowed(&'a str),
Owned(String),
}
fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed {
Owned(format!("hello world"))
}
Change code like this to:
enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
Borrowed(&'a str),
Owned(String),
}
fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed<'static> {
Owned(format!("hello world"))
}
Closes#15552.

This is accomplished by rewriting static expressions into equivalent patterns.
This way, patterns referencing static variables can both participate
in exhaustiveness analysis as well as be compiled down into the appropriate
branch of the decision trees that match expressions are codegened to.

The first is to require that `#[crate_name]` and `--crate-name` always match (if both are specified). The second is to fix parallel compilation in cargo by mixing in `-C extra-filename` into the temporary outputs of the compiler.
When invoking the compiler in parallel, the intermediate output of the object
files and bytecode can stomp over one another if two crates with the same name
are being compiled.
The output file is already being disambiguated with `-C extra-filename`, so this
commit alters the naming of the temporary files to also mix in the extra
filename to ensure that file names don't clash.

Part of the original discussions around the `--crate-name` flag brought up that
mass confusion can arise when the flag specifies a different name than is
contained in the crate.
The current primary use case of the `--crate-name` flag is through cargo and
not requiring a `#[crate_name]` attribute, but if the `#[crate_name]` attribute
is specified it will likely go awry when the two names deviate from one another.
This commit requires that if both are provided they both match to prevent this
confusion.
Importing from types was disallowed in #6462. Flag was set for paths whether it is a module or a type. Type flag was set when impl was seen. The problem is, for cross-crate situations, when reexport is involved, it is possible that impl is seen too late because metadata is loaded lazily.
Fix#15664.
This small patch causes the stability lint to bail out when traversing
any AST produced via a macro expansion. Ultimately, we would like to
lint the contents of the macro at the place where the macro is defined,
but regardless we should not be linting it at the use site.
Closes#15703
except where trait objects are involved.
Part of issue #15349, though I'm leaving it open for trait objects.
Cross borrowing for trait objects remains because it is needed until we
have DST.
This will break code like:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(a);
Change this code to:
fn foo(x: &int) { ... }
let a = box 3i;
foo(&*a);

This makes two changes to region inference: (1) it allows region
inference to relate early-bound regions; and (2) it allows regions to be
related before variance runs. The former is needed because there is no
relation between the two regions before region substitution happens,
while the latter is needed because type collection has to run before
variance. We assume that, before variance is inferred, that lifetimes
are invariant. This is a conservative overapproximation.
This relates to #13885. This does not remove `~self` from the language
yet, however.

The important bit of this are the changes from line 445 in mem_categorization.rs. Most of the other changes are about adding an Implicit PointerKind, and this is only necessary for getting a decent error message :-s An alternative would have been to add an implciti/explicit flag to cat_deref, which could be mostly ignored and so would mean much fewer changes. However, the implicit state would only be valid if the PointerKind was BorrowedPtr, so it felt like it ought to be another kind of PointerKind. I still don't know which is the better design.
This branch has a fix for #15557 (a2bcef9) as well as a variety of patches I found useful while debugging this issue. These include adding `Show` impls to a variety of types, including the majority of `syntax::ast` and some of `middle::ty`.
