Alex Crichton 464cdff102 std: Stabilize APIs for the 1.6 release
This commit is the standard API stabilization commit for the 1.6 release cycle.
The list of issues and APIs below have all been through their cycle-long FCP and
the libs team decisions are listed below

Stabilized APIs

* `Read::read_exact`
* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof` (renamed from `UnexpectedEOF`)
* libcore -- this was a bit of a nuanced stabilization, the crate itself is now
  marked as `#[stable]` and the methods appearing via traits for primitives like
  `char` and `str` are now also marked as stable. Note that the extension traits
  themeselves are marked as unstable as they're imported via the prelude. The
  `try!` macro was also moved from the standard library into libcore to have the
  same interface. Otherwise the functions all have copied stability from the
  standard library now.
* The `#![no_std]` attribute
* `fs::DirBuilder`
* `fs::DirBuilder::new`
* `fs::DirBuilder::recursive`
* `fs::DirBuilder::create`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt`
* `os::unix::fs::DirBuilderExt::mode`
* `vec::Drain`
* `vec::Vec::drain`
* `string::Drain`
* `string::String::drain`
* `vec_deque::Drain`
* `vec_deque::VecDeque::drain`
* `collections::hash_map::Drain`
* `collections::hash_map::HashMap::drain`
* `collections::hash_set::Drain`
* `collections::hash_set::HashSet::drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::Drain`
* `collections::binary_heap::BinaryHeap::drain`
* `Vec::extend_from_slice` (renamed from `push_all`)
* `Mutex::get_mut`
* `Mutex::into_inner`
* `RwLock::get_mut`
* `RwLock::into_inner`
* `Iterator::min_by_key` (renamed from `min_by`)
* `Iterator::max_by_key` (renamed from `max_by`)

Deprecated APIs

* `ErrorKind::UnexpectedEOF` (renamed to `UnexpectedEof`)
* `OsString::from_bytes`
* `OsStr::to_cstring`
* `OsStr::to_bytes`
* `fs::walk_dir` and `fs::WalkDir`
* `path::Components::peek`
* `slice::bytes::MutableByteVector`
* `slice::bytes::copy_memory`
* `Vec::push_all` (renamed to `extend_from_slice`)
* `Duration::span`

//! # The Rust Standard Library
//!
//! The Rust Standard Library is the foundation of portable Rust software, a
//! set of minimal and battle-tested shared abstractions for the [broader Rust
//! ecosystem][crates.io]. It offers core types, like [`Vec<T>`] and
//! [`Option<T>`], library-defined [operations on language
//! primitives](#primitives), [standard macros](#macros), [I/O] and
//! [multithreading], among [many other things][other].
//!
//! `std` is available to all Rust crates by default, just as if each one
//! contained an `extern crate std;` import at the [crate root]. Therefore the
//! standard library can be accessed in [`use`] statements through the path
//! `std`, as in [`use std::env`], or in expressions through the absolute path
//! `::std`, as in [`::std::env::args()`].
//!
//! # How to read this documentation
//!
//! If you already know the name of what you are looking for the fastest way to
//! find it is to use the <a href="#" onclick="focusSearchBar();">search
//! bar</a> at the top of the page.
//!
//! Otherwise, you may want to jump to one of these useful sections:
//!
//! * [`std::*` modules](#modules)
//! * [Primitive types](#primitives)
//! * [Standard macros](#macros)
//! * [The Rust Prelude](prelude/index.html)
//!
//! If this is your first time, the documentation for the standard library is
//! written to be casually perused. Clicking on interesting things should
//! generally lead you to interesting places. Still, there are important bits
//! you don't want to miss, so read on for a tour of the standard library and
//! its documentation!
//!
//! Once you are familiar with the contents of the standard library you may
//! begin to find the verbosity of the prose distracting. At this stage in your
//! development you may want to press the **[-]** button near the top of the
//! page to collapse it into a more skimmable view.
//!
//! While you are looking at that **[-]** button also notice the **[src]**
//! button. Rust's API documentation comes with the source code and you are
//! encouraged to read it. The standard library source is generally high
//! quality and a peek behind the curtains is often enlightening.
//!
//! # What is in the standard library documentation?
//!
//! First of all, The Rust Standard Library is divided into a number of focused
//! modules, [all listed further down this page](#modules). These modules are
//! the bedrock upon which all of Rust is forged, and they have mighty names
//! like [`std::slice`] and [`std::cmp`]. Modules' documentation typically
//! includes an overview of the module along with examples, and are a smart
//! place to start familiarizing yourself with the library.
//!
//! Second, implicit methods on [primitive types] are documented here. This can
//! be a source of confusion for two reasons:
//!
//! 1. While primitives are implemented by the compiler, the standard library
//! implements methods directly on the primitive types (and it is the only
//! library that does so), which are [documented in the section on
//! primitives](#primitives).
//! 2. The standard library exports many modules *with the same name as
//! primitive types*. These define additional items related to the primitive
//! type, but not the all-important methods.
//!
//! So for example there is a [page for the primitive type
//! `i32`](primitive.i32.html) that lists all the methods that can be called on
//! 32-bit integers (very useful), and there is a [page for the module
//! `std::i32`](i32/index.html) that documents the constant values [`MIN`] and
//! [`MAX`](i32/constant.MAX.html) (rarely useful).
//!
//! Note the documentation for the primitives [`str`] and [`[T]`][slice] (also
//! called 'slice'). Many method calls on [`String`] and [`Vec<T>`] are actually
//! calls to methods on [`str`] and [`[T]`][slice] respectively, via [deref
//! coercions].
//!
//! Third, the standard library defines [The Rust Prelude], a small collection
//! of items - mostly traits - that are imported into every module of every
//! crate. The traits in the prelude are pervasive, making the prelude
//! documentation a good entry point to learning about the library.
//!
//! And finally, the standard library exports a number of standard macros, and
//! [lists them on this page](#macros) (technically, not all of the standard
//! macros are defined by the standard library - some are defined by the
//! compiler - but they are documented here the same). Like the prelude, the
//! standard macros are imported by default into all crates.
//!
//! # A Tour of The Rust Standard Library
//!
//! The rest of this crate documentation is dedicated to pointing out notable
//! features of The Rust Standard Library.
//!
//! ## Containers and collections
//!
//! The [`option`] and [`result`] modules define optional and error-handling
//! types, [`Option<T>`] and [`Result<T, E>`]. The [`iter`] module defines
//! Rust's iterator trait, [`Iterator`], which works with the [`for`] loop to
//! access collections.
//!
//! The standard library exposes three common ways to deal with contiguous
//! regions of memory:
//!
//! * [`Vec<T>`] - A heap-allocated *vector* that is resizable at runtime.
//! * [`[T; n]`][array] - An inline *array* with a fixed size at compile time.
//! * [`[T]`][slice] - A dynamically sized *slice* into any other kind of contiguous
//! storage, whether heap-allocated or not.
//!
//! Slices can only be handled through some kind of *pointer*, and as such come
//! in many flavors such as:
//!
//! * `&[T]` - *shared slice*
//! * `&mut [T]` - *mutable slice*
//! * [`Box<[T]>`][owned slice] - *owned slice*
//!
//! [`str`], a UTF-8 string slice, is a primitive type, and the standard library
//! defines many methods for it. Rust [`str`]s are typically accessed as
//! immutable references: `&str`. Use the owned [`String`] for building and
//! mutating strings.
//!
//! For converting to strings use the [`format!`] macro, and for converting from
//! strings use the [`FromStr`] trait.
//!
//! Data may be shared by placing it in a reference-counted box or the [`Rc`]
//! type, and if further contained in a [`Cell`] or [`RefCell`], may be mutated
//! as well as shared. Likewise, in a concurrent setting it is common to pair an
//! atomically-reference-counted box, [`Arc`], with a [`Mutex`] to get the same
//! effect.
//!
//! The [`collections`] module defines maps, sets, linked lists and other
//! typical collection types, including the common [`HashMap<K, V>`].
//!
//! ## Platform abstractions and I/O
//!
//! Besides basic data types, the standard library is largely concerned with
//! abstracting over differences in common platforms, most notably Windows and
//! Unix derivatives.
//!
//! Common types of I/O, including [files], [TCP], [UDP], are defined in the
//! [`io`], [`fs`], and [`net`] modules.
//!
//! The [`thread`] module contains Rust's threading abstractions. [`sync`]
//! contains further primitive shared memory types, including [`atomic`] and
//! [`mpsc`], which contains the channel types for message passing.
