A slice iterator is isomorphic to a slice, just with a slightly
different form: storing start and end pointers rather than start pointer
and length. This patch reflects this by making converting between them
as easy as `iter.as_slice()` (or even `iter[]` if the shorter lifetime
is ok). That is, `slice.iter().as_slice() == slice`.
At the same time remove the `pub use` of the variants in favor of accessing
through the enum type itself. This is a breaking change as the `Found` and
`NotFound` variants must now be imported through `BinarySearchResult` instead of
just `std::slice`.

Just like we do with AsSlice
This comes in handy when dealing with iterator-centric APIs (`IntoIterator`!) and you want to receive an `Iterator<S> where S: Str` argument. Without this PR, e.g. you can't receive `&["a", "b"].iter()` instead you'll have to type `&["a", "b"].iter().map(|&x| x)` (A similar thing happens with `&[String]`).

This change applies the conventions to unwrap listed in [RFC 430][rfc] to rename
non-failing `unwrap` methods to `into_inner`. This is a breaking change, but all
`unwrap` methods are retained as `#[deprecated]` for the near future. To update
code rename `unwrap` method calls to `into_inner`.

This commit makes `Cow` more usable by allowing it to be applied to
unsized types (as was intended) and providing some basic `ToOwned`
implementations on slice types. It also corrects the documentation for
`Cow` to no longer mention `DerefMut`, and adds an example.

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 240][rfc] when applied to the standard
library. It primarily deprecates the entirety of `string::raw`, `vec::raw`,
`slice::raw`, and `str::raw` in favor of associated functions, methods, and
other free functions. The detailed renaming is:
* slice::raw::buf_as_slice => slice::from_raw_buf
* slice::raw::mut_buf_as_slice => slice::from_raw_mut_buf
* slice::shift_ptr => deprecated with no replacement
* slice::pop_ptr => deprecated with no replacement
* str::raw::from_utf8 => str::from_utf8_unchecked
* str::raw::c_str_to_static_slice => str::from_c_str
* str::raw::slice_bytes => deprecated for slice_unchecked (slight semantic diff)
* str::raw::slice_unchecked => str.slice_unchecked
* string::raw::from_parts => String::from_raw_parts
* string::raw::from_buf_len => String::from_raw_buf_len
* string::raw::from_buf => String::from_raw_buf
* string::raw::from_utf8 => String::from_utf8_unchecked
* vec::raw::from_buf => Vec::from_raw_buf
All previous functions exist in their `#[deprecated]` form, and the deprecation
messages indicate how to migrate to the newer variants.

The `Char` trait itself may go away in favor of primitive inherent
methods. Still some questions about whether the preconditions are
following the final error handling conventions.
For now we are preferring free functions for primitive ctors,
so they are marked 'unstable' pending final decision. The
methods on `Char` are 'deprecated'.
'Numeric' is the proper name of the unicode character class,
and this frees up the word 'digit' for ascii use in libcore.
Since I'm going to rename `Char::is_digit_radix` to
`is_digit`, I am not leaving a deprecated method in place,
because that would just cause name clashes, as both
`Char` and `UnicodeChar` are in the prelude.

This commit makes `Cow` more usable by allowing it to be applied to
unsized types (as was intended) and providing some basic `ToOwned`
implementations on slice types. It also corrects the documentation for
`Cow` to no longer mention `DerefMut`, and adds an example.
This commit changes `AsSlice` to work on unsized types, and changes the
`impl` for `&[T]` to `[T]`. Aside from making the trait more general,
this also helps some ongoing work with method resolution changes.
This is a breaking change: code that uses generics bounded by `AsSlice`
will have to change. In particular, such code previously often took
arguments of type `V` where `V: AsSlice<T>` by value. These should now
be taken by reference:
```rust
fn foo<Sized? V: AsSlice<T>>(v: &V) { .. }
```
A few std lib functions have been changed accordingly.

This commit adds stability markers for the APIs that have recently been aligned with [numerics reform](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/369). For APIs that were changed as part of that reform, `#[unstable]` is used to reflect the recency, but the APIs will become `#[stable]` in a follow-up pass.
In addition, a few aspects of the APIs not explicitly covered by the RFC are marked here -- in particular, constants for floats.
This commit does not mark the `uint` or `int` modules as `#[stable]`, given the ongoing debate out the names and roles of these types.
Due to some deprecation (see the RFC for details), this is a:

This commit applies the stabilization of std::fmt as outlined in [RFC 380][rfc].
There are a number of breaking changes as a part of this commit which will need
to be handled to migrated old code:
* A number of formatting traits have been removed: String, Bool, Char, Unsigned,
Signed, and Float. It is recommended to instead use Show wherever possible or
to use adaptor structs to implement other methods of formatting.
* The format specifier for Boolean has changed from `t` to `b`.
* The enum `FormatError` has been renamed to `Error` as well as becoming a unit
struct instead of an enum. The `WriteError` variant no longer exists.
* The `format_args_method!` macro has been removed with no replacement. Alter
code to use the `format_args!` macro instead.
* The public fields of a `Formatter` have become read-only with no replacement.
Use a new formatting string to alter the formatting flags in combination with
the `write!` macro. The fields can be accessed through accessor methods on the
`Formatter` structure.
Other than these breaking changes, the contents of std::fmt should now also all
contain stability markers. Most of them are still #[unstable] or #[experimental]

Now that we've done `fail` -> `panic`, I feel bringing back the error handling guide is a good idea. We had one long ago, but it was removed when conditions were removed.
This doesn't cover the new FromError stuff, but I feel like it's already useful in this state, so I'm sending this PR now.
