update documentation of tuple/unit structs
I made the "tuple structs are useless" editorializing a bit weaker and moved it to the end. Feel free to overrule me on that.
I also added an example of how to unpack a tuple struct with dot notation, because it came up on IRC.
`braced_empty_structs` is stable now, so I updated the example for unit-like structs to use that syntax. Should we show both ways?

Revert "Revert "Remove the return_address intrinsic.""
This reverts commit f698cd3a36.
Made possible by the merge of servo/servo#11872, this closes#34227 for good.
Fixes the formatting for inline assembly clobbers used in the book.
As this causes llvm to silently ignore the clobber an error is also
added to catch cases in which the wrong formatting was used.
Additionally a test case is added to confirm that this error works.
Avoid redundant downloads when bootstrapping
If the local file is available, then verify it against the hash we just
downloaded, and if it matches then we don't need to download it again.
Support `cfg_attr` on `path` attributes
Fixes#25544.
This is technically a [breaking-change]. For example, the following would break:
```rust
mod foo; // Suppose `foo.rs` existed in the appropriate location
```
The organization in rustbuild was a little odd at the moment where the `lib.rs`
was quite small but the binary `main.rs` was much larger. Unfortunately as well
there was a `build/` directory with the implementation of the build system, but
this directory was ignored by GitHub on the file-search prompt which was a
little annoying.
This commit reorganizes rustbuild slightly where all the library files (the
build system) is located directly inside of `src/bootstrap` and all the binaries
now live in `src/bootstrap/bin` (they're small). Hopefully this should allow
GitHub to index and allow navigating all the files while maintaining a
relatively similar layout to the other libraries in `src/`.
rustdoc: Remove paths from primitive page <title> tags
Currently primitive pages have a title like "std::u8 - Rust" this changes
it to "u8 - Rust" as "std::u8" is the name of a module not a primitive
type.
Add x86 intrinsics for bit manipulation (BMI 1.0, BMI 2.0, and TBM).
This PR adds the LLVM x86 intrinsics for the bit manipulation instruction sets (BMI 1.0, BMI 2.0, and TBM).
The objective of this pull-request is to allow building a library that implements all the algorithms offered by those instruction sets, using compiler intrinsics for the targets that support them (by means of `target_feature`).
The target features added are:
- `bmi`: Bit Manipulation Instruction Set 1.0, available in Intel >= Haswell and AMD's >= Jaguar/Piledriver,
- `bmi2`: Bit Manipulation Instruction Set 2.0, available in Intel >= Haswell and AMD's >= Excavator,
- `tbm`: Trailing Bit Manipulation, available only in AMD's Piledriver (won't be available in newer CPUs).
The intrinsics added are:
- BMI 1.0:
- `bextr`: Bit field extract (with register).
- BMI 2.0:
- `bzhi`: Zero high bits starting with specified bit position.
- `pdep`: Parallel bits deposit.
- `pext`: Parallel bits extract.
- TBM:
- `bextri`: Bit field extract (with immediate).
Move LLVM cleanup so modules are accessible during `after_llvm` phase
Fix for #34432. Also added a new phase controller `after_compilation_done` that gets called at the very end (i.e. after linking) at the suggestion of @nrc. The added test will segfault if the modules get deallocated too early, so it ensures the LLVM is not prematurely cleaned up.

Issue #34076: Removing reference to removed path.prefix() function
In the documentation for `std::path::Path`, there is a [reference](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/path/struct.Path.html#method.is_absolute) to the `path.prefix()` function which has since been removed. The offending reference is now also removed.
First pull request, feedback welcome!

prefer `if let` to match with `None => {}` arm in some places
This is a spiritual succesor to #34268 / 8531d581, in which we replaced a
number of matches of None to the unit value with `if let` conditionals
where it was judged that this made for clearer/simpler code (as would be
recommended by Manishearth/rust-clippy's `single_match` lint). The same
rationale applies to matches of None to the empty block.
