Rewrite associated types to use projection rather than dummy type parameters. This closes almost every (major) open issue, but I'm holding off on that until the code has landed and baked a bit. Probably it should have more tests, as well, but I wanted to get this landed as fast as possible so that we can collaborate on improving it.
The commit history is a little messy, particularly the merge commit at the end. If I get some time, I might just "reset" to the beginning and try to carve up the final state into logical pieces. Let me know if it seems hard to follow. By far the most crucial commit is "Implement associated type projection and normalization."

1. Produced more unique types than is necessary. This increases memory consumption.
2. Linking the type parameter to its definition *seems* like a good idea, but it
encourages reliance on the bounds listing.
3. It made pretty-printing harder and in particular was causing bad error messages
when errors occurred before the `TypeParameterDef` entries were fully stored.
This commit adds support for the compiler to distinguish between different forms
of lookup paths in the compiler itself. Issue #19767 has some background on this
topic, as well as some sample bugs which can occur if these lookup paths are not
separated.
This commits extends the existing command line flag `-L` with the same trailing
syntax as the `-l` flag. Each argument to `-L` can now have a trailing `:all`,
`:native`, `:crate`, or `:dependency`. This suffix indicates what form of lookup
path the compiler should add the argument to. The `dependency` lookup path is
used when looking up crate dependencies, the `crate` lookup path is used when
looking for immediate dependencies (`extern crate` statements), and the `native`
lookup path is used for probing for native libraries to insert into rlibs. Paths
with `all` are used for all of these purposes (the default).
The default compiler lookup path (the rustlib libdir) is by default added to all
of these paths. Additionally, the `RUST_PATH` lookup path is added to all of
these paths.
Closes#19767
There is also some work here to make resolve a bit more stable - it no longer overwrites a specific import with a glob import.

Import shadowing of single/list imports by globs is now forbidden. An interesting case is where a glob import imports a re-export (`pub use`) of a single import. This still counts as a single import for the purposes of shadowing .You can usually fix any bustage by re-ordering such imports. A single import may still shadow (override) a glob import or the prelude.

followed by a semicolon.
This allows code like `vec![1i, 2, 3].len();` to work.
This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting
semicolons after them, such as:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b)
assert!(c == d)
println(...);
}
It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons:
local_data_key!(foo)
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}
Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as
follows:
fn main() {
...
assert!(a == b);
assert!(c == d);
println(...);
}
local_data_key!(foo);
fn main() {
println("hello world")
}

Closes#18635.

This commit takes a second pass through the `std::option` module to fully
stabilize any lingering methods inside of it.
These items were made stable as-is
* Some
* None
* as_mut
* expect
* unwrap
* unwrap_or
* unwrap_or_else
* map
* map_or
* map_or_else
* and_then

* Copy implementation
These items were made stable with modifications
* iter - now returns a struct called Iter
* iter_mut - now returns a struct called IterMut
* into_iter - now returns a struct called IntoIter, Clone is never implemented
This is a breaking change due to the modifications to the names of the iterator
types returned. Code referencing the old names should updated to referencing the
newer names instead. This is also a breaking change due to the fact that
`IntoIter` no longer implements the `Clone` trait.
These items were explicitly not stabilized
* as_slice - waiting on indexing conventions
* as_mut_slice - waiting on conventions with as_slice as well
* cloned - the API was still just recently added
* ok_or - API remains experimental
* ok_or_else - API remains experimental
