Futureproof Rust for fancier suffixed literals. The Rust compiler tokenises a literal followed immediately (no whitespace) by an identifier as a single token: (for example) the text sequences `"foo"bar`, `1baz` and `1u1024` are now a single token rather than the pairs `"foo"` `bar`, `1` `baz` and `1u` `1024` respectively.
The compiler rejects all such suffixes in the parser, except for the 12 numeric suffixes we have now.
I'm fairly sure this will affect very few programs, since it's not currently legal to have `<literal><identifier>` in a Rust program, except in a macro invocation. Any macro invocation relying on this behaviour can simply separate the two tokens with whitespace: `foo!("bar"baz)` becomes `foo!("bar" baz)`.
This implements [RFC 463](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/0463-future-proof-literal-suffixes.md), and so closes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/19088.
This adds an optional suffix at the end of a literal token:
`"foo"bar`. An actual use of a suffix in a expression (or other literal
that the compiler reads) is rejected in the parser.
This doesn't switch the handling of numbers to this system, and doesn't
outlaw illegal suffixes for them yet.
This commit applies the stabilization of std::fmt as outlined in [RFC 380][rfc].
There are a number of breaking changes as a part of this commit which will need
to be handled to migrated old code:
* A number of formatting traits have been removed: String, Bool, Char, Unsigned,
Signed, and Float. It is recommended to instead use Show wherever possible or
to use adaptor structs to implement other methods of formatting.
* The format specifier for Boolean has changed from `t` to `b`.
* The enum `FormatError` has been renamed to `Error` as well as becoming a unit
struct instead of an enum. The `WriteError` variant no longer exists.
* The `format_args_method!` macro has been removed with no replacement. Alter
code to use the `format_args!` macro instead.
* The public fields of a `Formatter` have become read-only with no replacement.
Use a new formatting string to alter the formatting flags in combination with
the `write!` macro. The fields can be accessed through accessor methods on the
`Formatter` structure.
Other than these breaking changes, the contents of std::fmt should now also all
contain stability markers. Most of them are still #[unstable] or #[experimental]

Closes#18904
`slice_shift_char` splits a `str` into it's leading `char` and the remainder of the `str`. Currently, it returns a `(Option<char>, &str)` such that:
"bar".slice_shift_char() => (Some('b'), "ar")
"ar".slice_shift_char() => (Some('a'), "r")
"r".slice_shift_char() => (Some('r'), "")
"".slice_shift_char() => (None, "")
This is a little odd. Either a `str` can be split into both a head and a tail or it cannot. So the return type should be `Option<(char, &str)>`. With the current behaviour, in the case of the empty string, the `str` returned is meaningless - it is always the empty string.
This PR changes `slice_shift_char` so that:
"bar".slice_shift_char() => Some(('b', "ar"))
"ar".slice_shift_char() => Some(('a', "r"))
"r".slice_shift_char() => Some(('r', ""))
"".slice_shift_char() => None
This breaks code that referred to variant names in the same namespace as
their enum. Reexport the variants in the old location or alter code to
refer to the new locations:
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
=>
```
pub use self::Foo::{A, B};
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = A;
}
```
or
```
pub enum Foo {
A,
B
}
fn main() {
let a = Foo::A;
}
```

The examples in the documentation for syntax::ext::deriving::encodable
are outdated, and do not work. To fix this, the following changes are
applied:
- emit_field() -> emit_struct_field()
- read_field() -> read_struct_field()
- Use Result to report errors
- Add the mut keyword to Encoder/Decoder
- Prefer Encodable::encode() to emit_uint
* Moves multi-collection files into their own directory, and splits them into seperate files
* Changes exports so that each collection has its own module
* Adds underscores to public modules and filenames to match standard naming conventions
(that is, treemap::{TreeMap, TreeSet} => tree_map::TreeMap, tree_set::TreeSet)
* Renames PriorityQueue to BinaryHeap
* Renames SmallIntMap to VecMap
* Miscellanious fallout fixes

- The signature of the `*_equiv` methods of `HashMap` and similar structures
have changed, and now require one less level of indirection. Change your code
from:
```
hashmap.find_equiv(&"Hello");
hashmap.find_equiv(&&[0u8, 1, 2]);
```
to:
```
hashmap.find_equiv("Hello");
hashmap.find_equiv(&[0u8, 1, 2]);
```
- The generic parameter `T` of the `Hasher::hash<T>` method have become
`Sized?`. Downstream code must add `Sized?` to that method in their
implementations. For example:
```
impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher {
fn hash<T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ }
}
```
must be changed to:
```
impl Hasher<FnvState> for FnvHasher {
fn hash<Sized? T: Hash<FnvState>>(&self, t: &T) -> u64 { /* .. */ }
// ^^^^^^
}
```

This is an implementation of the rustc bits of [RFC 403][rfc]. This adds a new
flag to the compiler, `-l`, as well as tweaking the `include!` macro (and
related source-centric macros).
The compiler's new `-l` flag is used to link libraries in from the command line.
This flag stacks with `#[link]` directives already found in the program. The
purpose of this flag, also stated in the RFC, is to ease linking against native
libraries which have wildly different requirements across platforms and even
within distributions of one platform. This flag accepts a string of the form
`NAME[:KIND]` where `KIND` is optional or one of dylib, static, or framework.
This is roughly equivalent to if the equivalent `#[link]` directive were just
written in the program.
The `include!` macro has been modified to recursively expand macros to allow
usage of `concat!` as an argument, for example. The use case spelled out in RFC
403 was for `env!` to be used as well to include compile-time generated files.
The macro also received a bit of tweaking to allow it to expand to either an
expression or a series of items, depending on what context it's used in.
