This commit is an implementation of [RFC 494][rfc] which removes the entire
`std::c_vec` module and redesigns the `std::c_str` module as `std::ffi`.
[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0494-c_str-and-c_vec-stability.md
The interface of the new `CString` is outlined in the linked RFC, the primary
changes being:
* The `ToCStr` trait is gone, meaning the `with_c_str` and `to_c_str` methods
are now gone. These two methods are replaced with a `CString::from_slice`
method.
* The `CString` type is now just a wrapper around `Vec<u8>` with a static
guarantee that there is a trailing nul byte with no internal nul bytes. This
means that `CString` now implements `Deref<Target = [c_char]>`, which is where
it gains most of its methods from. A few helper methods are added to acquire a
slice of `u8` instead of `c_char`, as well as including a slice with the
trailing nul byte if necessary.
* All usage of non-owned `CString` values is now done via two functions inside
of `std::ffi`, called `c_str_to_bytes` and `c_str_to_bytes_with_nul`. These
functions are now the one method used to convert a `*const c_char` to a Rust
slice of `u8`.
Many more details, including newly deprecated methods, can be found linked in
the RFC. This is a:

macro_rules! is like an item that defines a macro. Other items don't have a
trailing semicolon, or use a paren-delimited body.
If there's an argument for matching the invocation syntax, e.g. parentheses for
an expr macro, then I think that applies more strongly to the *inner*
delimiters on the LHS, wrapping the individual argument patterns.
- the self type includes some local type; and,
- type parameters in the self type must be constrained by a local type.
A type parameter is called *constrained* if it appears in some type-parameter of a local type.
Here are some examples that are accepted. In all of these examples, I
assume that `Foo` is a trait defined in another crate. If `Foo` were
defined in the local crate, then all the examples would be legal.
- `impl Foo for LocalType`
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType` -- T does not appear in Self, so it is OK
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for LocalType<T>` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
- `impl<T> Foo<T> for (LocalType<T>, T)` -- T here is constrained by LocalType
Here are some illegal examples (again, these examples assume that
`Foo` is not local to the current crate):
- `impl Foo for int` -- the Self type is not local
- `impl<T> Foo for T` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
- `impl<T> Foo for (LocalType, T)` -- T appears in Self unconstrained by a local type
This is a [breaking-change]. For the time being, you can opt out of
the new rules by placing `#[old_orphan_check]` on the trait (and
enabling the feature gate where the trait is defined). Longer term,
you should restructure your traits to avoid the problem. Usually this
means changing the order of parameters so that the "central" type
parameter is in the `Self` position.
As an example of that refactoring, consider the `BorrowFrom` trait:
```rust
pub trait BorrowFrom<Sized? Owned> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Owned) -> &Self;
}
```
As defined, this trait is commonly implemented for custom pointer
types, such as `Arc`. Those impls follow the pattern:
```rust
impl<T> BorrowFrom<Arc<T>> for T {...}
```
Unfortunately, this impl is illegal because the self type `T` is not
local to the current crate. Therefore, we are going to change the order of the parameters,
so that `BorrowFrom` becomes `Borrow`:
```rust
pub trait Borrow<Sized? Borrowed> for Sized? {
fn borrow_from(owned: &Self) -> &Borrowed;
}
```
Now the `Arc` impl is written:
```rust
impl<T> Borrow<T> for Arc<T> { ... }
```
This impl is legal because the self type (`Arc<T>`) is local.
This commit marks as stable those parts of `core::ops` that are in their
final planned form: `Drop`, all of the mathematical operators (`Add`,
`Sub`, etc), `Deref`/`DerefMut`. It leaves the `Index*`, `Slice*` and
`Fn*` traits unstable, as they are still undergoing active changes.
This commit wraps up the adjustments to the iterator for recent language
changes.
* Moves `rposition` from `ExactSizeIterator` to `IteratorExt` using a
`where` clause, thereby removing the `ExactSizeIterator:
DoubleEndedIterator` constraint.
* Merges `MutableDoubleEndedIterator` into `IteratorExt`, renaming
`reverse_` to `reverse_in_place`.
* Merges `IteratorOrdExt`, `IteratorCloneExt` and `CloneIteratorExt`
into `IteratorExt` using `where` clauses.
Marks as `#[stable]`:
* the `iter` module itself
* `FromIterator`, `Extend`
* `Iterator`, `IteratorExt`
* `map`
* `filter`
* `filter_map`
* `skip_while`
* `take_while`
* `scan`
* `flat_map`
* `inspect`
* `collect`
* `fold`
* `all`
* `any`
* `find`
* `rposition`
* `max`, `min`
* Various adapter types related to the above methods
Because of the trait merging, this is a:

Many of libstd's macros are now re-exported from libcore and libcollections.
Their libstd definitions have moved to a macros_stage0 module and can disappear
after the next snapshot.
Where the two crates had already diverged, I took the libstd versions as
they're generally newer and better-tested. See e.g. d3c831b, which was a fix to
libstd's assert_eq!() that didn't make it into libcore's.
Fixes#16806.

Closes#20444
* The `sync` module is stable
* The `sync::mpsc` module is stable
* The `Sender::send` method is stable.
* The `Once::doit` method is now removed.
* Deprecated atomic initializers are removed.
* Renamed atomic initializers are now stable.
* The `str` module itself is stable.
* The `StrExt` trait is stable (and impls).
* The `Utf8Error` type is unstable.
* The `from_utf8` function is stable
* Some iterators are now stable:
* `Chars`
* `CharIndices`
* The `MatchIndices` iterator is now unstable
* The public `traits` module is no longer public.
This implements RFC 179 by making the pattern `&<pat>` require matching
against a variable of type `&T`, and introducing the pattern `&mut
<pat>` which only works with variables of type `&mut T`.
The pattern `&mut x` currently parses as `&(mut x)` i.e. a pattern match
through a `&T` or a `&mut T` that binds the variable `x` to have type
`T` and to be mutable. This should be rewritten as follows, for example,
for &mut x in slice.iter() {
becomes
for &x in slice.iter() {
let mut x = x;
Due to this, this is a

Closes#20496.
This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how
recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the
standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release.
Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated
command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently
accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed).
The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both
of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.

The `Index[Mut]` traits now have one less input parameter, as the return type of the indexing operation is an associated type. This breaks all existing implementations.
---
binop traits (`Add`, `Sub`, etc) now have an associated type for their return type. Also, the RHS input parameter now defaults to `Self` (except for the `Shl` and `Shr` traits). For example, the `Add` trait now looks like this:
``` rust
trait Add<Rhs=Self> {
type Output;
fn add(self, Rhs) -> Self::Output;
}
```
The `Neg` and `Not` traits now also have an associated type for their return type.
This breaks all existing implementations of these traits.
---
Affected traits:
- `Iterator { type Item }`
- `IteratorExt` no input/output types, uses `<Self as Iterator>::Item` in its methods
- `DoubleEndedIterator` no input/output types, uses `<Self as Iterator>::Item` in its methods
- `DoubleEndedIteratorExt` no input/output types, uses `<Self as Iterator>::Item` in its methods
- `RandomAccessIterator` no input/output types
- `ExactSizeIterator` no input/output types, uses `<Self as Iterator>::Item` in its methods
This breaks all the implementations of these traits.
This modifies `Parser::eat_lt` to always split up `<<`s, instead of doing so only when a lifetime name followed or the `force` parameter (now removed) was `true`. This is because `Foo<<TYPE` is now a valid start to a type, whereas previously only `Foo<<LIFETIME` was valid.
This is a [breaking-change]. Change code that looks like this:
```rust
let x = foo as bar << 13;
```
to use parentheses, like this:
```rust
let x = (foo as bar) << 13;
```
Closes#17362.
This corresponds to the JMM memory model's non-volatile reads and writes to shared variables. It provides fairly weak guarantees, but prevents UB (specifically, you will never see a value that was not written _at some point_ to the provided location). It is not part of the C++ memory model and is only legal to provide to LLVM for loads and stores (not fences, atomicrmw, etc.).
Valid uses of this ordering are things like racy counters where you don't care about the operation actually being atomic, just want to avoid UB. It cannot be used for synchronization without additional memory barriers since unordered loads and stores may be reordered freely by the optimizer (this is the main way it differs from relaxed).
Because it is new to Rust and it provides so few guarantees, for now only the intrinsic is provided--this patch doesn't add it to any of the higher-level atomic wrappers.
