Because I'm still 😷😷😷 , I figured some mindless tasks would be better than trying to finish the ownership guide.
The manual has long been waiting for some ❤️❤️❤️ , and so I gave it a quick once-over. I made small commits in case any of the changes are a bit weird, I mostly did a few things:
1. changed 'manual' to 'reference.' I feel like this name is better. If it's not, It's not a huge deal. it shouldn't be `rust.md` though.
2. word wrapped everything appropriately. Changes 1&2 are in the first commit, so that its' easier to see the changes in the later ones.
3. fixed other small style issues
4. removed references to things that are in the standard library, and not the language itself
There's still lots of gross in here, but I didn't want to pile on too too many changes.

This breaks code like:
struct Foo {
...
}
pub fn make_foo() -> Foo {
...
}
Change this code to:
pub struct Foo { // note `pub`
...
}
pub fn make_foo() -> Foo {
...
}
The `visible_private_types` lint has been removed, since it is now an
error to attempt to expose a private type in a public API. In its place
a `#[feature(visible_private_types)]` gate has been added.
Closes#16463.
RFC #48.

Change to resolve and update compiler and libs for uses.

Enum variants are now in both the value and type namespaces. This means that
if you have a variant with the same name as a type in scope in a module, you
will get a name clash and thus an error. The solution is to either rename the
type or the variant.
Part of issue #16640. I am leaving this issue open to handle parsing of
higher-rank lifetimes in traits.
This change breaks code that used unboxed closures:
* Instead of `F:|&: int| -> int`, write `F:Fn(int) -> int`.
* Instead of `F:|&mut: int| -> int`, write `F:FnMut(int) -> int`.
* Instead of `F:|: int| -> int`, write `F:FnOnce(int) -> int`.

This breaks code that looked like:
mymacro!(static::foo);
... where `mymacro!` expects a path or expression. Change such macros to
not accept keywords followed by `::`.
Closes#17298.

The implementation essentially desugars during type collection and AST
type conversion time into the parameter scheme we have now. Only fully
qualified names--e.g. `<T as Foo>::Bar`--are supported.
This prevents confusing errors when accidentally using an assignment
in an `if` expression. For example:
```rust
fn main() {
let x = 1u;
if x = x {
println!("{}", x);
}
}
```
Previously, this yielded:
```
test.rs:4:16: 4:17 error: expected `:`, found `!`
test.rs:4 println!("{}", x);
^
```
With this change, it now yields:
```
test.rs:3:8: 3:13 error: mismatched types: expected `bool`, found `()` (expected bool, found ())
test.rs:3 if x = x {
^~~~~
```
Closes issue #17283
The `StrInterner::clear()` method takes self immutably but can invalidate references returned by `StrInterner::get_ref`. Since `get_ref` is unused, just remove it.
Closes#17181
Sized deallocation makes it pointless to provide an address that never
overlaps with pointers returned by an allocator. Code can branch on the
capacity of the allocation instead of a comparison with this sentinel.
This improves the situation in #8859, and the remaining issues are only
from the logging API, which should be disabled by default in optimized
release builds anyway along with debug assertions. The remaining issues
are part of #17081.
Closes#8859
