This should hopefully fix all cast-related ICEs once and for all.
I managed to make diagnostics hate me and give me spurious "decoder error"
- removing $build/tmp/extended-errors seems to fix it.
Constants with values that depend on generic parameters or `Self` cause
ICEs in `check_const`, and are not yet accepted via RFC, so we need to
throw a proper error in these cases.
This allows compiling entire crates from memory or preprocessing source files before they are tokenized.
Minor API refactoring included, which is a [breaking-change] for libsyntax users:
* `ParseSess::{next_node_id, reserve_node_ids}` moved to rustc's `Session`
* `new_parse_sess` -> `ParseSess::new`
* `new_parse_sess_special_handler` -> `ParseSess::with_span_handler`
* `mk_span_handler` -> `SpanHandler::new`
* `default_handler` -> `Handler::new`
* `mk_handler` -> `Handler::with_emitter`
* `string_to_filemap(sess source, path)` -> `sess.codemap().new_filemap(path, source)`
This also updates the error messages for both. For E0066, it removes mention
of "managed heap", which was removed in 8a91d33. For E0069, I just tweaked
the wording to make it a bit more explicit.
Also change several error messages to refer to "items" rather than
"methods", since associated items that require resolution during type
checking are not always methods.
There is no subtyping relationship between the types (or their non-freshened
variants), so they can not be merged.

There were still some mentions of `~[T]` and `~T`, mostly in comments and debugging statements. I tried to do my best to preserve meaning, but I might have gotten some wrong-- I'm happy to fix anything :)
Fixes the problem in #16974 with unhelpful error messages when accidentally using the wrong syntax for the `crate_type="lib"` attribute. The attribute syntax error now shows up instead of "main function not found".
If the user intended to set the crate_type to "lib" but accidentally used
incorrect syntax such as `#![crate_type(lib)]`, the compilation would fail with
"main function not found". This made it hard to locate the source of the
problem, since the failure would cause the warning about the incorrect
attribute not to be shown.
This change is worrisome to me, both because:
1. I thought the rules in RFC 599 imply that the `Box<Trait>` without `'static`
in the first case would expand to the second case, but their behaviors
here differ. And,
2. The explicit handling of `'static` should mean `dropck` has no application
here and thus we should have seen no change to the expected error messages.
Nonetheless, the error messages changed.
The error message was misleading, so I adjusted it, and I also added the long diagnostics for this error (resolves one point in #24407).
I was unsure about how to phrase the error message. Is “generic parameter binding” the correct term for this?
The [UnsafeCell documentation says it is undefined behavior](http://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/std/cell/struct.UnsafeCell.html), so people shouldn't do it.
This happened to catch one case in libstd that was doing this, and I switched that to use an UnsafeCell internally.
Closes#13146
[breaking-change] Technically breaking, since code that had been using
these transmutes before will no longer compile. However, it was
undefined behavior, so really, it's a good thing. Fixing your code would
require some re-working to use an UnsafeCell instead.
Closes#13146
