Remove the old AST-based backend from rustc_trans.
Starting with Rust 1.13, `--disable-orbit` , `-Z orbit=off` and `#[rustc_no_mir]` have been removed.
Only the new MIR backend is left in the compiler, and only early const_eval uses ASTs from other crates.
Filling drop (previously "zeroing drop"), `#[unsafe_no_drop_flag]` and associated unstable APIs are gone.
Implementing `Drop` doesn't add a flag anymore to the type, all of the dynamic drop is function local.
This is a [breaking-change], please use `Option::None` and/or `mem::forget` if you are unsure about your ability to prevent/control the drop of a value. In the future, `union` will be usable in some such cases.
**NOTE**: DO NOT MERGE before we get the new beta as the stage0, there's some cruft to remove.
All of this will massively simplify any efforts to implement (and as such it blocks) features such as `union`s, safe use of `#[packed]` or new type layout optimizations, not to mention many other experiments.
Carrier trait (third attempt)
This adds a `Carrier` trait to operate with `?`. The only public implementation is for `Result`, so effectively the trait does not exist, however, it ensures future compatibility for the `?` operator. This is not intended to be used, nor is it intended to be a long-term solution.
Although this exact PR has not been through Crater, I do not expect it to be a breaking change based on putting numerous similar PRs though Crater in the past.

Wording fixes in error messages
This PR is largely wording fixes to existing PRs that I found going back through the ones that have already been updated. Sometimes seeing the message in context made me think "oh there's a better wording!"
There's one additional fix. This will also prevent the secondary underlining of derive call (since they look like macros to the system in the way I was using):
```
error[E0184]: the trait `Copy` may not be implemented for this type; the type has a destructor
--> src/test/compile-fail/E0184.rs:11:10
|
11 | #[derive(Copy)] //~ ERROR E0184
| ^^^^
| |
| in this macro invocation
```
Is now just:
```
error[E0184]: the trait `Copy` may not be implemented for this type; the type has a destructor
--> src/test/compile-fail/E0184.rs:11:10
|
11 | #[derive(Copy)] //~ ERROR E0184
| ^^^^
```
Move 'doesn't live long enough' errors to labels
This patch moves the "doesn't live long enough" region-style errors to instead use labels.
An example follows.
Before:
```
error: `x` does not live long enough
--> src/test/compile-fail/send-is-not-static-ensures-scoping.rs:26:18
|
26 | let y = &x;
| ^
|
note: reference must be valid for the block at 23:10...
--> src/test/compile-fail/send-is-not-static-ensures-scoping.rs:23:11
|
23 | fn main() {
| ^
note: ...but borrowed value is only valid for the block suffix following statement 0 at 25:18
--> src/test/compile-fail/send-is-not-static-ensures-scoping.rs:25:19
|
25 | let x = 1;
| ^
```
After:
```
error: `x` does not live long enough
--> src/test/compile-fail/send-is-not-static-ensures-scoping.rs:26:18
|
26 | let y = &x;
| ^ does not live long enough
...
32 | };
| - borrowed value only valid until here
...
35 | }
| - borrowed value must be valid until here
```
