This redux of CONTRIBUTING.md adds in more information, including
subsuming both compliment-bugreport.md and Note-development-policy
in the wiki.
I only glanced at the broad TOC of Note-development-policy, and did
not use the text as the basis for the re-write. This will then address
the last outstanding part of #5831.
Highlights:
* Adds an 'uninstall.sh' script to `/usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh`, the path to which is printed during installation.
* Components can be deselected during install, like `install.sh --without=rust-docs`.
* Components can be listed with `install.sh --list-components`.
* Vastly reduces spew during install (but supporting a `--verbose` option).
Typicall install run looks like:
```
brian@brianX1:~/dev/multirust⟫ sudo ./install.sh
[sudo] password for brian:
install: creating uninstall script at /usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh
install: installing component 'rustc'
install: installing component 'cargo'
install: installing component 'rust-docs'
Rust is ready to roll.
```
Needs to be merged right before corresponding PRs to cargo and rust-packaging.

It's not clear what this means, because a macro in item position can expand to zero or more items. For now we disallow it, which is technically a
[breaking-change]
but is landing without an RFC. The `pub` keyword previously had no effect, which seems quite unintended.
Fixes#18317.
Fixes#14660.
This PR replaces uses of `os::getenv` with newly introduced `env::var{,_os}`.
Mostly did this as a background activity to procrastinate from procrastinating.
Tests appear to build and run fine. This includes benchmarks from test/bench directory.
Some function signatures have changed, so this is a [breaking-change].
In particular, radixes and numerical values of digits are represented by `u32` now.
Part of #22240
`PathBuf` does implement `Hash`, but `Path` doesn't. This makes it
annoying if you have a `HashMap` with `PathBuf`s as keys, because
it means you have to convert a `Path` into a `PathBuf` and get a
reference to it simply to perform operations on the `HashMap`!
