This commit updates the version number to 1.17.0 as we're not on that version of
the nightly compiler, and at the same time this updates src/stage0.txt to
bootstrap from freshly minted beta compiler and beta Cargo.
Bounds parsing refactoring 2
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/37511 for previous discussion.
cc @matklad
Relaxed parsing rules:
- zero bounds after `:` are allowed in all contexts.
- zero predicates are allowed after `where`.
- trailing separator `,` is allowed after predicates in `where` clauses not followed by `{`.
Other parsing rules:
- trailing separator `+` is still allowed in all bound lists.
Code is also cleaned up and tests added.
I haven't touched parsing of trait object types yet, I'll do it later.
exclusive range patterns
adds `..` patterns to the language under a feature gate (`exclusive_range_pattern`).
This allows turning
``` rust
match i {
0...9 => {},
10...19 => {},
20...29 => {},
_ => {}
}
```
into
``` rust
match i {
0..10 => {},
10..20 => {},
20..30 => {},
_ => {}
}
```
Refactor the parser to consume token trees
This is groundwork for efficiently parsing attribute proc macro invocations, bang macro invocations, and `TokenStream`-based attributes and fragment matchers.
This improves parsing performance by 8-15% and expansion performance by 0-5% on a sampling of the compiler's crates.

Merge ObjectSum and PolyTraitRef in AST/HIR + some other refactoring
`ObjectSum` and `PolyTraitRef` are the same thing (list of bounds), they exist separately only due to parser quirks. The second commit merges them.
The first commit replaces `Path` with `Ty` in (not yet supported) equality predicates. They are parsed as types anyway and arbitrary types can always be disguised as paths using aliases, so this doesn't add any new functionality.
The third commit uses `Vec` instead of `P<[T]>` in AST. AST is not immutable like HIR and `Vec`s are more convenient for it, unnecessary conversions are also avoided.
The last commit renames `parse_ty_sum` (which is used for parsing types in general) into `parse_ty`, and renames `parse_ty` (which is used restricted contexts where `+` is not permitted due to operator priorities or other reasons) into `parse_ty_no_plus`.
This is the first part of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39085#issuecomment-272743755 and https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39080 focused on data changes and mechanical renaming, I'll submit a PR with parser changes a bit later.
