This commit switches over the backtrace infrastructure from piggy-backing off
the RUST_LOG environment variable to using the RUST_BACKTRACE environment
variable (logging is now disabled in libstd).
This commit moves all logging out of the standard library into an external
crate. This crate is the new crate which is responsible for all logging macros
and logging implementation. A few reasons for this change are:
* The crate map has always been a bit of a code smell among rust programs. It
has difficulty being loaded on almost all platforms, and it's used almost
exclusively for logging and only logging. Removing the crate map is one of the
end goals of this movement.
* The compiler has a fair bit of special support for logging. It has the
__log_level() expression as well as generating a global word per module
specifying the log level. This is unfairly favoring the built-in logging
system, and is much better done purely in libraries instead of the compiler
itself.
* Initialization of logging is much easier to do if there is no reliance on a
magical crate map being available to set module log levels.
* If the logging library can be written outside of the standard library, there's
no reason that it shouldn't be. It's likely that we're not going to build the
highest quality logging library of all time, so third-party libraries should
be able to provide just as high-quality logging systems as the default one
provided in the rust distribution.
With a migration such as this, the change does not come for free. There are some
subtle changes in the behavior of liblog vs the previous logging macros:
* The core change of this migration is that there is no longer a physical
log-level per module. This concept is still emulated (it is quite useful), but
there is now only a global log level, not a local one. This global log level
is a reflection of the maximum of all log levels specified. The previously
generated logging code looked like:
if specified_level <= __module_log_level() {
println!(...)
}
The newly generated code looks like:
if specified_level <= ::log::LOG_LEVEL {
if ::log::module_enabled(module_path!()) {
println!(...)
}
}
Notably, the first layer of checking is still intended to be "super fast" in
that it's just a load of a global word and a compare. The second layer of
checking is executed to determine if the current module does indeed have
logging turned on.
This means that if any module has a debug log level turned on, all modules
with debug log levels get a little bit slower (they all do more expensive
dynamic checks to determine if they're turned on or not).
Semantically, this migration brings no change in this respect, but
runtime-wise, this will have a perf impact on some code.
* A `RUST_LOG=::help` directive will no longer print out a list of all modules
that can be logged. This is because the crate map will no longer specify the
log levels of all modules, so the list of modules is not known. Additionally,
warnings can no longer be provided if a malformed logging directive was
supplied.
The new "hello world" for logging looks like:
#[phase(syntax, link)]
extern crate log;
fn main() {
debug!("Hello, world!");
}

This commit shreds all remnants of libextra from the compiler and standard
distribution. Two modules, c_vec/tempfile, were moved into libstd after some
cleanup, and the other modules were moved to separate crates as seen fit.

This aims to cover the basics of writing safe unsafe code. At the moment
it is just designed to be a better place for the `asm!()` docs than the
detailed release notes wiki page, and I took the time to write up some
other things.
More examples are needed, especially of things that can subtly go wrong;
and vast areas of `unsafe`-ty aren't covered, e.g. `static mut`s and
thread-safety in general.

This enables the lowering of llvm 64b intrinsics to hardware ops, resolving issues around `__kernel_cmpxchg64` on older kernels on ARM devices, and also enables use of the hardware floating point unit, resolving https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/10482.
Whenever a failure happens, if a program is run with
`RUST_LOG=std::rt::backtrace` a backtrace will be printed to the task's stderr
handle. Stack traces are uncondtionally printed on double-failure and
rtabort!().
This ended up having a nontrivial implementation, and here's some highlights of
it:
* We're bundling libbacktrace for everything but OSX and Windows
* We use libgcc_s and its libunwind apis to get a backtrace of instruction
pointers
* On OSX we use dladdr() to go from an instruction pointer to a symbol
* On unix that isn't OSX, we use libbacktrace to get symbols
* Windows, as usual, has an entirely separate implementation
Lots more fun details and comments can be found in the source itself.

This functionality is not super-core and so doesn't need to be included
in std. It's possible that std may need rand (it does a little bit now,
for io::test) in which case the functionality required could be moved to
a secret hidden module and reexposed by librand.
Unfortunately, using #[deprecated] here is hard: there's too much to
mock to make it feasible, since we have to ensure that programs still
typecheck to reach the linting phase.
- remove `node.js` dep., it has no effect as of #12747 (1)
- switch between LaTeX compilers, some cleanups
- CSS: fixup the print stylesheet, refactor highlighting code (2)
(1): `prep.js` outputs its own HTML directives, which `pandoc` cannot recognize when converting the document into LaTeX (this is why the PDF docs have never been highlighted as of now).
Note that if we were to add the `.rust` class to snippets, we could probably use pandoc's native highlighting capatibilities i.e. Kate ([here is](http://adrientetar.github.io/rust-tuts/tutorial/tutorial.pdf) an example of that).
(2): the only real highlighting change is for lifetimes which are now brown instead of red, the rest is just refactor of twos shades of red that look the same.
Also I made numbers highlighting for src in rustdoc a tint more clear so that it is less bothering.

Closes#9873. Closes#12788.
Work towards #9876.
Several minor things here:
* Fix the `need_ok` function in `configure`
* Install man pages with non-executable permissions
* Use the correct directory for man pages when installing (this was a recent regression)
* Put all distributables in a new `dist/` directory in the build directory (there are soon to be significantly more of these)
Finally, this also creates a new, more precise way to install and uninstall Rust's files, the `install.sh` script, and creates a build target (currently `dist-tar-bins`) that creates a binary tarball containing all the installable files, boilerplate and license docs, and `install.sh`.
This binary tarball is the lowest-common denominator way to install Rust on Unix. We'll use it as the default installer on Linux (OS X will use .pkg).
## How `install.sh` works
* First, the makefiles (`prepare.mk` and `dist.mk`) put all the stuff that needs to be installed in a new directory in `dist/`.
* Then it puts `install.sh` in that same directory and a list of all the files to install at `rustlib/manifest`.
* Then the directory can be packaged and distributed.
* When `install.sh` runs it does some sanity checking then copies everything in the manifest to the install prefix, then copies the manifest as well.
* When `install.sh` runs again in the future it first looks for the existing manifest at the install prefix, and if it exists deletes everything in it. This is how the core distribution is upgraded - cargo is responsible for the rest.
* `install.sh --uninstall` will uninstall Rust
## Future work:
* Modify `install.sh` to accept `--man-dir` etc
* Rewrite `install.mk` to delegate to `install.sh`
* Investigate how `install.sh` does or doesn't work with .pkg on Mac
* Modify `dist.mk` to create `.pkg` files for all hosts
* Possibly use [makeself](http://www.megastep.org/makeself/) to create self-extracting installers
* Modify dist-snap bots run on mac as well, uploading binary tarballs and .pkg files for the four combos of linux, mac, x86, and x86_64.
* Adjust build system to be able to augment versions with '-nightly'
* Adjust build system to name dist artifacts without version numbers e.g. `rust-nightly-...pkg`. This is so we don't leave a huge trail of old nightly binaries on S3 - they just get overwritten.
* Create new dist-nightly builder
* Give the build master a new cron job to push to dist-nightly every night
* Add docs to distributables
* Update README.md to reflect the new reality
* Modernize the website to promote new installers

This restores the old behaviour (as compared to building PDF versions of
all standalone docs), because some of the guides use unicode characters,
which seems to make pdftex unhappy.

as a valid codeblock (i.e. mismatching delimiters), which made using
rustdoc on its own documentation impossible (since it used nested
codeblocks to demonstrate how testable codesnippets worked).
This modifies those snippets so that they're delimited by indentation,
but this then means they're tested by `rustdoc --test` & rendered as
Rust code (because there's no way to add `notrust` to
indentation-delimited code blocks). A comment is added to stop the
compiler reading the text too closely, but this unfortunately has to be
visible in the final docs, since that's the text on which the
highlighting happens.
E.g. this stops check-...-doc rules for `rustdoc.md` and `librustdoc`
from stamping on each other, so that they are correctly built and
tested. (Previously only the rustdoc crate was tested.)
This converts it to be very similar to crates.mk, with a single list of
the documentation items creating all the necessary bits and pieces.
Changes include:
- rustdoc is used to render HTML & test standalone docs
- documentation building now obeys NO_REBUILD=1
- testing standalone docs now obeys NO_REBUILD=1
- L10N is slightly less broken (in particular, it shares dependencies
and code with the rest of the code)
- PDFs can be built for all documentation items, not just tutorial and
manual
- removes the obsolete & unused extract-tests.py script
- adjust the CSS for standalone docs to use the rustdoc syntax

This new SVH is used to uniquely identify all crates as a snapshot in time of
their ABI/API/publicly reachable state. This current calculation is just a hash
of the entire crate's AST. This is obviously incorrect, but it is currently the
reality for today.
This change threads through the new Svh structure which originates from crate
dependencies. The concept of crate id hash is preserved to provide efficient
matching on filenames for crate loading. The inspected hash once crate metadata
is opened has been changed to use the new Svh.
The goal of this hash is to identify when upstream crates have changed but
downstream crates have not been recompiled. This will prevent the def-id drift
problem where upstream crates were recompiled, thereby changing their metadata,
but downstream crates were not recompiled.
In the future this hash can be expanded to exclude contents of the AST like doc
comments, but limitations in the compiler prevent this change from being made at
this time.

The compiler itself doesn't necessarily need any features of green threading
such as spawning tasks and lots of I/O, so libnative is slightly more
appropriate for rustc to use itself.
This should also help the rusti bot which is currently incompatible with libuv.
tidy has some limitations (e.g. the "checked in binaries" check doesn't
and can't actually check git), and so it's useful to run tests without
running tidy occasionally.
This trades an O(n) allocation + memcpy for a O(1) proc allocation (for
the destructor). Most users only need &[u8] anyway (all of the users in
the main repo), and so this offers large gains.
These two containers are indeed collections, so their place is in
libcollections, not in libstd. There will always be a hash map as part of the
standard distribution of Rust, but by moving it out of the standard library it
makes libstd that much more portable to more platforms and environments.
This conveniently also removes the stuttering of 'std::hashmap::HashMap',
although 'collections::HashMap' is only one character shorter.
Two optimizations:
1. Compress `foo.bc` in each rlib with `flate`. These are just taking up space and are only used with LTO, no need for LTO to be speedy.
2. Stop install `librustc.rlib` and friends, this is a *huge* source of bloat. There's no need for us to install static libraries for these components.

running tidy occasionally.
You rarely want to statically link against librustc and friends, so there's no
real reason to install the rlib version of these libraries, especially because
the rlibs are massive.
LLVM's tools are not contained in the local directory if --llvm-root is used by
the ./configure script. This fixes the installation path to be the root provided
by --llvm-root.
