This commit removes all the old casting/generic traits from `std::num` that are
no longer in use by the standard library. This additionally removes the old
`strconv` module which has not seen much use in quite a long time. All generic
functionality has been supplanted with traits in the `num` crate and the
`strconv` module is supplanted with the [rust-strconv crate][rust-strconv].

This is a breaking change due to the removal of these deprecated crates, and the
alternative crates are listed above.
[breaking-change]
This patch
1. renames libunicode to librustc_unicode,
2. deprecates several pieces of libunicode (see below), and
3. removes references to deprecated functions from
librustc_driver and libsyntax. This may change pretty-printed
output from these modules in cases involving wide or combining
characters used in filenames, identifiers, etc.
The following functions are marked deprecated:
1. char.width() and str.width():
--> use unicode-width crate
2. str.graphemes() and str.grapheme_indices():
--> use unicode-segmentation crate
3. str.nfd_chars(), str.nfkd_chars(), str.nfc_chars(), str.nfkc_chars(),
char.compose(), char.decompose_canonical(), char.decompose_compatible(),
char.canonical_combining_class():
--> use unicode-normalization crate
This allows `io::Error` values to be stored in `Arc` properly.
Because this requires `Sync` of any value passed to `io::Error::new()`
and modifies the relevant `convert::From` impls, this is a
[breaking-change]
Fixes#24049.

This commit series starts out with more official test harness support for rustdoc tests, and then each commit afterwards adds a test (where appropriate). Each commit should also test and finish independently of all others (they're all pretty separable).
I've uploaded a [copy of the documentation](http://people.mozilla.org/~acrichton/doc/std/) generated after all these commits were applied, and a double check on issues being closed would be greatly appreciated! I'll also browse the docs a bit and make sure nothing regressed too horribly.
This commit stabilizes the old `io::Error::from_os_error` after being renamed to
use the `raw_os_error` terminology instead. This function is often useful when
writing bindings to OS functions but only actually converting to an I/O error at
a later point.

write_fmt calls write for each formatted field. The default implementation of write_fmt is used,
which will call write on not-yet-locked stdout (and write locking after), therefore making print!
in multithreaded environment still interleave contents of two separate prints.
I’m not sure whether we want to do this change, though, because it has the same deadlock hazard which we tried to avoid by not locking inside write_fmt itself (see [this comment](80def6c244/src/libstd/io/stdio.rs (L267))).

This patch implements reentrant mutexes, changes stdio handles to use these mutexes and overrides
write_fmt to lock the stdio handle for the whole duration of the call.

This introduces no functional changes except for reducing a few unnecessary operations and variables. Vec has the behavior that, if you request space past the capacity with reserve(), it will round up to the nearest power of 2. What that effectively means is that after the first call to reserve(16), we are doubling our capacity every time. So using the DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE and doubling cap_size() here is meaningless and has no effect on the call to reserve().
Note that with #23842 implemented this will hopefully have a clearer API and less of a need for commenting. If #23842 is not implemented then the most clear implementation would be to call reserve_exact(buf.capacity()) at every step (and making sure that buf.capacity() is not zero at the beginning of the function of course).
Edit- functional change now introduced. We will now zero 16 bytes of the vector first, then double to 32, then 64, etc. until we read 64kB. This stops us from zeroing the entire vector when we double it, some of which may be wasted work. Reallocation still follows the doubling strategy, but the responsibility has been moved to vec.extend(), which calls reserve() and push_back().
This commit stabilizes a few remaining bits of the `io::Error` type:
* The `Error::new` method is now stable. The last `detail` parameter was removed
and the second `desc` parameter was generalized to `E: Into<Box<Error>>` to
allow creating an I/O error from any form of error. Currently there is no form
of downcasting, but this will be added in time.
* An implementation of `From<&str> for Box<Error>` was added to liballoc to
allow construction of errors from raw strings.
* The `Error::raw_os_error` method was stabilized as-is.
* Trait impls for `Clone`, `Eq`, and `PartialEq` were removed from `Error` as it
is not possible to use them with trait objects.
This is a breaking change due to the modification of the `new` method as well as
the removal of the trait implementations for the `Error` type.
[breaking-change]
* The `io::Seek` trait.
* The `Iterator::{partition, unsip}` methods.
* The `Vec::into_boxed_slice` method.
* The `LinkedList::append` method.
* The `{or_insert, or_insert_with` methods in the `Entry` APIs.

This commit cleans out a large amount of deprecated APIs from the standard
library and some of the facade crates as well, updating all users in the
compiler and in tests as it goes along.
* The `io::Seek` trait, and `SeekFrom` enum.
* The `Iterator::{partition, unsip}` methods.
* The `Vec::into_boxed_slice` method.
* The `LinkedList::append` method.
* The `{or_insert, or_insert_with` methods in the `Entry` APIs.
This commit stabilizes the `std::num` module:
* The `Int` and `Float` traits are deprecated in favor of (1) the
newly-added inherent methods and (2) the generic traits available in
rust-lang/num.
* The `Zero` and `One` traits are reintroduced in `std::num`, which
together with various other traits allow you to recover the most
common forms of generic programming.
* The `FromStrRadix` trait, and associated free function, is deprecated
in favor of inherent implementations.
* A wide range of methods and constants for both integers and floating
point numbers are now `#[stable]`, having been adjusted for integer
guidelines.
* `is_positive` and `is_negative` are renamed to `is_sign_positive` and
`is_sign_negative`, in order to address #22985
* The `Wrapping` type is moved to `std::num` and stabilized;
`WrappingOps` is deprecated in favor of inherent methods on the
integer types, and direct implementation of operations on
`Wrapping<X>` for each concrete integer type `X`.

This removes the FromError trait, since it can now be expressed using
the new convert::Into trait. All implementations of FromError<E> where
changed to From<E>, and `try!` was changed to use From::from instead.
Because this removes FromError, it is a breaking change, but fixing it
simply requires changing the words `FromError` to `From`, and
`from_error` to `from`.

This functions swaps the order of arguments to a few functions that previously
took (output, input) parameters, but now take (input, output) parameters (in
that order).
The affected functions are:
* ptr::copy
* ptr::copy_nonoverlapping
* slice::bytes::copy_memory
* intrinsics::copy
* intrinsics::copy_nonoverlapping

with_end_to_cap is enormously expensive now that it's initializing
memory since it involves 64k allocation + memset on every call. This is
most noticable when calling read_to_end on very small readers, where the
new version if **4 orders of magnitude** faster.
BufReader also depended on with_end_to_cap so I've rewritten it in its
original form.
As a bonus, converted the buffered IO struct Debug impls to use the
debug builders.
I first came across this in sfackler/rust-postgres#106 where a user reported a 10x performance regression. A call to read_to_end turned out to be the culprit: 9cd413d42c.
The new version differs from the old in a couple of ways. The buffer size used is now adaptive. It starts at 32 bytes and doubles each time EOF hasn't been reached up to a limit of 64k. In addition, the buffer is only truncated when EOF or an error has been reached, rather than after every call to read as was the case for the old implementation.
I wrote up a benchmark to compare the old version and new version: https://gist.github.com/sfackler/e979711b0ee2f2063462
It tests a couple of different cases: a high bandwidth reader, a low bandwidth reader, and a low bandwidth reader that won't return more than 10k per call to `read`. The high bandwidth reader should be analagous to use cases when reading from e.g. a `BufReader` or `Vec`, and the low bandwidth readers should be analogous to reading from something like a `TcpStream`.
Of special note, reads from a high bandwith reader containing 4 bytes are now *4,495 times faster*.

Previously a panic was generated for recursive prints due to a double-borrow of
a `RefCell`. This was solved by the second borrow's output being directed
towards the global stdout instead of the per-thread stdout (still experimental
functionality).
After this functionality was altered, however, recursive prints still deadlocked
due to the overridden `write_fmt` method which locked itself first and then
wrote all the data. This was fixed by removing the override of the `write_fmt`
method. This means that unlocked usage of `write!` on a `Stdout`/`Stderr` may be
slower due to acquiring more locks, but it's easy to make more performant with a
call to `.lock()`.
Closes#23781
Now that `<[_]>::split` is an inherent method, it will trump `BufRead::split`
when `BufRead` is in scope, so there is no longer a conflict. As a result,
calling `slice.split()` will probably always give you precisely what you want!
This attribute has been deprecated in favor of #[should_panic]. This also
updates rustdoc to no longer accept the `should_fail` directive and instead
renames it to `should_panic`.
