The included test case would essentially never finish compiling without this
patch. It recursies twice at every ExprParen meaning that the branching factor
is 2^n
The included test case will take so long to parse on the old compiler that it'll
surely never let this crop up again.

`Zero` and `One` have precise definitions in mathematics as the identities of the `Add` and `Mul` operations respectively. As such, types that implement these identities are now also required to implement their respective operator traits. This should reduce their misuse whilst still enabling them to be used in generalized algebraic structures (not just numbers). Existing usages of `#[deriving(Zero)]` in client code could break under these new rules, but this is probably a sign that they should have been using something like `#[deriving(Default)]` in the first place.
For more information regarding the mathematical definitions of the additive and multiplicative identities, see the following Wikipedia articles:
- http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Additive_identity
- http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_identity
Note that for floating point numbers the laws specified in the doc comments of `Zero::zero` and `One::one` may not always hold. This is true however for many other traits currently implemented by floating point numbers. What traits floating point numbers should and should not implement is an open question that is beyond the scope of this pull request.
The implementation of `std::num::pow` has been made more succinct and no longer requires `Clone`. The coverage of the associated unit test has also been increased to test for more combinations of bases, exponents, and expected results.
Previously, they were treated like ~[] and &[] (which can have length
0), but fixed length vectors are fixed length, i.e. we know at compile
time if it's possible to have length zero (which is only for [T, .. 0]).
Fixes#11659.
This means that compilation continues for longer, and so we can see more
errors per compile. This is mildly more user-friendly because it stops
users having to run rustc n times to see n macro errors: just run it
once to see all of them.

For `use` statements, this means disallowing qualifiers when in functions and
disallowing `priv` outside of functions.
For `extern mod` statements, this means disallowing everything everywhere. It
may have been envisioned for `pub extern mod foo` to be a thing, but it
currently doesn't do anything (resolve doesn't pick it up), so better to err on
the side of forwards-compatibility and forbid it entirely for now.

The patch adds the missing pow method for all the implementations of the
Integer trait. This is a small addition that will most likely be
improved by the work happening in #10387.
Fixes#11499
The new macro loading infrastructure needs the ability to force a
procedural-macro crate to be built with the host architecture rather than the
target architecture (because the compiler is just about to dlopen it).
* Reexport io::mem and io::buffered structs directly under io, make mem/buffered
private modules
* Remove with_mem_writer
* Remove DEFAULT_CAPACITY and use DEFAULT_BUF_SIZE (in io::buffered)

Major changes:
- Define temporary scopes in a syntax-based way that basically defaults
to the innermost statement or conditional block, except for in
a `let` initializer, where we default to the innermost block. Rules
are documented in the code, but not in the manual (yet).
See new test run-pass/cleanup-value-scopes.rs for examples.
- Refactors Datum to better define cleanup roles.
- Refactor cleanup scopes to not be tied to basic blocks, permitting
us to have a very large number of scopes (one per AST node).
- Introduce nascent documentation in trans/doc.rs covering datums and
cleanup in a more comprehensive way.

The patch adds a `pow` function for types implementing `One`, `Mul` and
`Clone` trait.
The patch also renames f32 and f64 pow into powf in order to still have
a way to easily have float powers. It uses llvms intrinsics.
The pow implementation for all num types uses the exponentiation by
square.

Unique pointers and vectors currently contain a reference counting
header when containing a managed pointer.
This `{ ref_count, type_desc, prev, next }` header is not necessary and
not a sensible foundation for tracing. It adds needless complexity to
library code and is responsible for breakage in places where the branch
has been left out.
The `borrow_offset` field can now be removed from `TyDesc` along with
the associated handling in the compiler.
