7c00d77e8b librustc: Implement the syntax in the RFC for unboxed closure sugar.
Part of issue #16640. I am leaving this issue open to handle parsing of
higher-rank lifetimes in traits.

This change breaks code that used unboxed closures:

* Instead of `F:|&: int| -> int`, write `F:Fn(int) -> int`.

* Instead of `F:|&mut: int| -> int`, write `F:FnMut(int) -> int`.

* Instead of `F:|: int| -> int`, write `F:FnOnce(int) -> int`.

8d27232141 librustc: Tie up loose ends in unboxed closures.
This patch primarily does two things: (1) it prevents lifetimes from
leaking out of unboxed closures; (2) it allows unboxed closure type
notation, call notation, and construction notation to construct closures
matching any of the three traits.

This breaks code that looked like:

    let mut f;
    {
        let x = &5i;
        f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
    }

Change this code to avoid having a reference escape. For example:

    {
        let x = &5i;
        let mut f; // <-- move here to avoid dangling reference
        f = |&mut:| *x + 10;
    }

I believe this is enough to consider unboxed closures essentially
implemented. Further issues (for example, higher-rank lifetimes) should
be filed as followups.

Closes #14449.
