The new `::ops::Range` has separated implementations for each of the
numeric types, while the old `::iter::Range` has one for type `Int`.
However, we do not take output bindings into account when selecting
traits. So it confuses `typeck` and makes the new range does not work as
good as the old one when it comes to type inference.
This patch implements `Iterator` for the new range for one type `Int`.
This limitation could be lifted, however, if we ever reconsider the
output types' role in type inference.

specialized to closures, and invoke them as soon as we know the
closure kind. I thought initially we would need a fixed-point
inference algorithm but it appears I was mistaken, so we can do this.
Update the coherence rules to "covered first" -- the first type parameter to contain either a local type or a type parameter must contain only covered type parameters.

An alternative to #21749.
This also refactors the naming lint code a little bit and slightly rephrases some warnings (`uppercase` → `upper case`).
Closes#21735.
The usecase is that functions made visible to systems outside of the
rust ecosystem require the symbol to be visible.
This adds a lint for functions that are not exported, but also not mangled.
It has some gotchas:
[ ]: There is fallout in core that needs taking care of
[ ]: I'm not convinced the error message is correct
[ ]: It has no tests
~~However, there's an underlying issue which I'd like feedback on- which is that my belief that that non-pub functions would not have their symbols exported, however that seems not to be the case in the first case that this lint turned up in rustc (`rust_fail`), which intuition suggests has been working.~~
This seems to be a separate bug in rust, wherein the symbols are exported in binaries, but not in rlibs or dylibs. This lint would catch that case.
This commit performs a final stabilization pass over the std::fmt module,
marking all necessary APIs as stable. One of the more interesting aspects of
this module is that it exposes a good deal of its runtime representation to the
outside world in order for `format_args!` to be able to construct the format
strings. Instead of hacking the compiler to assume that these items are stable,
this commit instead lays out a story for the stabilization and evolution of
these APIs.
There are three primary details used by the `format_args!` macro:
1. `Arguments` - an opaque package of a "compiled format string". This structure
is passed around and the `write` function is the source of truth for
transforming a compiled format string into a string at runtime. This must be
able to be constructed in stable code.
2. `Argument` - an opaque structure representing an argument to a format string.
This is *almost* a trait object as it's just a pointer/function pair, but due
to the function originating from one of many traits, it's not actually a
trait object. Like `Arguments`, this must be constructed from stable code.
3. `fmt::rt` - this module contains the runtime type definitions primarily for
the `rt::Argument` structure. Whenever an argument is formatted with
nonstandard flags, a corresponding `rt::Argument` is generated describing how
the argument is being formatted. This can be used to construct an
`Arguments`.
The primary interface to `std::fmt` is the `Arguments` structure, and as such
this type name is stabilize as-is today. It is expected for libraries to pass
around an `Arguments` structure to represent a pending formatted computation.
The remaining portions are largely "cruft" which would rather not be stabilized,
but due to the stability checks they must be. As a result, almost all pieces
have been renamed to represent that they are "version 1" of the formatting
representation. The theory is that at a later date if we change the
representation of these types we can add new definitions called "version 2" and
corresponding constructors for `Arguments`.
One of the other remaining large questions about the fmt module were how the
pending I/O reform would affect the signatures of methods in the module. Due to
[RFC 526][rfc], however, the writers of fmt are now incompatible with the
writers of io, so this question has largely been solved. As a result the
interfaces are largely stabilized as-is today.

Specifically, the following changes were made:
* The contents of `fmt::rt` were all moved under `fmt::rt::v1`
* `fmt::rt` is stable
* `fmt::rt::v1` is stable
* `Error` is stable
* `Writer` is stable
* `Writer::write_str` is stable
* `Writer::write_fmt` is stable
* `Formatter` is stable
* `Argument` has been renamed to `ArgumentV1` and is stable
* `ArgumentV1::new` is stable
* `ArgumentV1::from_uint` is stable
* `Arguments::new_v1` is stable (renamed from `new`)
* `Arguments::new_v1_formatted` is stable (renamed from `with_placeholders`)
* All formatting traits are now stable, as well as the `fmt` method.
* `fmt::write` is stable
* `fmt::format` is stable
* `Formatter::pad_integral` is stable
* `Formatter::pad` is stable
* `Formatter::write_str` is stable
* `Formatter::write_fmt` is stable
* Some assorted top level items which were only used by `format_args!` were
removed in favor of static functions on `ArgumentV1` as well.
* The formatting-flag-accessing methods remain unstable
Within the contents of the `fmt::rt::v1` module, the following actions were
taken:
* Reexports of all enum variants were removed
* All prefixes on enum variants were removed
* A few miscellaneous enum variants were renamed
* Otherwise all structs, fields, and variants were marked stable.
In addition to these actions in the `std::fmt` module, many implementations of
`Show` and `String` were stabilized as well.
In some other modules:
* `ToString` is now stable
* `ToString::to_string` is now stable
* `Vec` no longer implements `fmt::Writer` (this has moved to `String`)
This is a breaking change due to all of the changes to the `fmt::rt` module, but
this likely will not have much impact on existing programs.
Closes#20661
[breaking-change]
Coercions will now attempt to autoderef as needed before reborrowing.
This includes overloaded `Deref`, e.g. `&Rc<T>` coerces to `&T`, and
`DerefMut`, e.g. `&mut Vec<T>` coerces to `&mut [T]` (in addition to `&[T]`).
Closes#21432.
It was considered to be impossible but actually it can
happen for nested closures. Also, because there must
be nested closures when this happens, we can use more
targeted help message.
Closes#21390Closes#21600
explicit form `Fn<A,B>` and now should use `Fn(A) -> B` or
`Fn<A,Output=B>`, but in some cases we get duplicate error
reports. This is mildly annoying and arises because of the main error
and another error from the projection. Might be worth squashing those,
but seems like a separate problem.
This implements the remaining bits of 'feature staging', as described in [RFC 507](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0507-release-channels.md).
This is not quite done, but the substance of the work is complete so submitting for early review.
Key changes:
* `unstable`, `stable` and `deprecated` attributes all require 'feature' and 'since', and support an optional 'reason'.
* The `unstable` lint is removed.
* A new 'stability checking' pass warns when a used unstable library feature has not been activated with the `feature` attribute. At 1.0 beta this will become an error.
* A new 'unused feature checking' pass emits a lint ('unused_feature', renamed from 'unknown_feature') for any features that were activated but not used.
* A new tidy script `featureck.py` performs some global sanity checking, particularly that 'since' numbers agree, and also prints out a summary of features.
Differences from RFC:
* As implemented `unstable` requires a `since` attribute. I do not know if this is useful. I included it in the original sed script and just left it.
* RFC didn't specify the name of the optional 'reason' attribute.
* This continues to use 'unstable', 'stable' and 'deprecated' names (the 'nice' names) instead of 'staged_unstable', but only activates them with the crate-level 'staged_api' attribute.
I intend to update the RFC based on the outcome of this PR.
Issues:
* The unused feature check doesn't account for language features - i.e. you can activate a language feature, not use it, and not get the error.
Open questions:
* All unstable and deprecated features are named 'unnamed_feature', which i picked just because it is uniquely greppable. This is the 'catch-all' feature. What should it be?
* All stable features are named 'grandfathered'. What should this be?
TODO:
* Add check that all `deprecated` attributes are paired with a `stable` attribute in order to preserve the knowledge about when a feature became stable.
* Update rustdoc in various ways.
* Remove obsolete stability discussion from reference.
* Add features for 'path', 'io', 'os', 'hash' and 'rand'.
