The `Float` trait methods will be usable as functions via UFCS, and
we came to a consensus to remove duplicate functions like this a long
time ago.
It does still make sense to keep the duplicate functions when the trait
methods are static, unless the decision to leave out the in-scope trait
name resolution for static methods changes.
move errno -> IoError converter into std, bubble up OSRng errors
Also adds a general errno -> `~str` converter to `std::os`, and makes the failure messages for the things using `OSRng` (e.g. (transitively) the task-local RNG, meaning hashmap initialisation failures aren't such a black box).
This is an implementation detail of the `f32` and `f64` modules and it
should not be public. It renames many functions and leaves out any
provided by LLVM intrinsics, so it is not a sensible binding to the C
standard library's math library and will never be a stable target.
This also removes the abuse of link_name so that this can be switched to
using automatically generated definitions in the future. This also
removes the `scalbn` binding as it is equivalent to `ldexp` when
`FLT_RADIX` is 2, which must always be true for Rust.
The various ...Rng::new() methods can hit IO errors from the OSRng they use,
and it seems sensible to expose them at a higher level. Unfortunately, writing
e.g. `StdRng::new().unwrap()` gives a much poorer error message than if it
failed internally, but this is a problem with all `IoResult`s.

This commit switches privacy's checking of fields to have *all* fields be
private by default. This does not yet change tuple structs, this only affects
structs with named fields. The fallout of this change will follow shortly.

`collections::list::List` was decided in a [team meeting](https://github.com/mozilla/rust/wiki/Meeting-weekly-2014-03-25) that it was unnecessary, so this PR removes it. Additionally, it removes an old and redundant purity test and fixes some warnings.
