This adds ‘help’ diagnostic messages to rustc. This is used for anything that
provides help to the user, particularly the `--explain` messages that were
previously integrated into the relevant error message.
The other extension types already worked this way and it can be useful to track some state along with the extension.
I also removed the `BasicMacroExpander` and `BasicIdentMacroExpander` since the span inside of them was never used. The expander function types now directly implement the relevant trait.
The spans inside of these types were always None and never used. Pass
the expander function directly instead of wrapping it in one of these
types.

This allows code to access the fields of tuples and tuple structs behind the feature gate `tuple_indexing`:
```rust
#![feature(tuple_indexing)]
let x = (1i, 2i);
assert_eq!(x.1, 2);
struct Point(int, int);
let origin = Point(0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.1, 0);
```
Implements [RFC 53](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0053-tuple-accessors.md). Closes#16950.
For convenience, the traits are implemented for the respective bare
functions. Change code from this:
```rust
ItemDecorator(some_function)
// or
ItemModifier(some_other_function)
```
to
```rust
ItemDecorator(box some_function)
// or
ItemModifier(box some_other_function)
```

Based on an observation that strings and arguments are always interleaved, thanks to #15832. Additionally optimize invocations where formatting parameters are unspecified for all arguments, e.g. `"{} {:?} {:x}"`, by emptying the `__STATIC_FMTARGS` array. Next, `Arguments::new` replaces an empty slice with `None` so that passing empty `__STATIC_FMTARGS` generates slightly less machine code when `Arguments::new` is inlined. Furthermore, formatting itself treats these cases separately without making redundant copies of formatting parameters.
All in all, this adds a single mov instruction per `write!` in most cases. That's why code size has increased.
This allows code to access the fields of tuples and tuple structs:
let x = (1i, 2i);
assert_eq!(x.1, 2);
struct Point(int, int);
let origin = Point(0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.1, 0);
Format specs are ignored and not stored in case they're all default.
Restore default formatting parameters during iteration.
Pass `None` instead of empty slices of format specs to take advantage
of non-nullable pointer optimization.
Generate a call to one of two functions of `fmt::Argument`.
Use '^' to specify center alignment in format strings.
fmt!( "[{:^5s}]", "Hi" ) -> "[ Hi ]"
fmt!( "[{:^5s}]", "H" ) -> "[ H ]"
fmt!( "[{:^5d}]", 1i ) -> "[ 1 ]"
fmt!( "[{:^5d}]", -1i ) -> "[ -1 ]"
fmt!( "[{:^6d}]", 1i ) -> "[ 1 ]"
fmt!( "[{:^6d}]", -1i ) -> "[ -1 ]"
If the padding is odd then the padding on the right will be one
character longer than the padding on the left.
Tuples squashed
Enables any macros using `MacExpr` to be treated as patterns when
they produce a literal in the form `ExprLit` (e.g. `stringify!` or `line!`).

1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code.
2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible.
3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.
Stop read+write expressions from expanding into two occurences
in the AST. Add a bool to indicate whether an operand in output
position if read+write or not.

declared with the same name in the same scope.
This breaks several common patterns. First are unused imports:
use foo::bar;
use baz::bar;
Change this code to the following:
use baz::bar;
Second, this patch breaks globs that import names that are shadowed by
subsequent imports. For example:
use foo::*; // including `bar`
use baz::bar;
Change this code to remove the glob:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz::bar;
Or qualify all uses of `bar`:
use foo::{boo, quux};
use baz;
... baz::bar ...
Finally, this patch breaks code that, at top level, explicitly imports
`std` and doesn't disable the prelude.
extern crate std;
Because the prelude imports `std` implicitly, there is no need to
explicitly import it; just remove such directives.
The old behavior can be opted into via the `import_shadowing` feature
gate. Use of this feature gate is discouraged.
This implements RFC #116.

These `where` clauses are accepted everywhere generics are currently
accepted and desugar during type collection to the type parameter bounds
we have today.
A new keyword, `where`, has been added. Therefore, this is a breaking

This paves the way to associated items by introducing an extra level of
abstraction ("impl-or-trait item") between traits/implementations and
methods. This new abstraction is encoded in the metadata and used
throughout the compiler where appropriate.
There are no functional changes; this is purely a refactoring.

This adds support to `quote_expr!` and friends for round-trip hygienic
preservation of Ident.
Here are the pieces of the puzzle:
* adding a method for encoding Ident for re-reading into token tree.
* Support for reading such encoded Idents in the lexer. Note that one
must peek ahead for MOD_SEP after scan_embedded_hygienic_ident.
* To ensure that encoded Idents are only read when we are in the midst
of expanding a `quote_expr` or similar, added a
`read_embedded_ident` flag on `StringReader`.
* pprust support for encoding Ident's as (uint,uint) pairs (for hygiene).
This leaves the `Share` trait at `std::kinds` via a `#[deprecated]` `pub use`
statement, but the `NoShare` struct is no longer part of `std::kinds::marker`
due to #12660 (the build cannot bootstrap otherwise).
All code referencing the `Share` trait should now reference the `Sync` trait,
and all code referencing the `NoShare` type should now reference the `NoSync`
type. The functionality and meaning of this trait have not changed, only the
naming.

meaning `'b outlives 'a`. Syntax currently does nothing but is needed for full
fix to #5763. To use this syntax, the issue_5763_bootstrap feature guard is
required.
The `type_overflow` lint, doesn't catch the overflow for `i64` because
the overflow happens earlier in the parse phase when the `u64` as biggest
possible int gets casted to `i64` , without checking the for overflows.
We can't lint in the parse phase, so a refactoring of the `LitInt` type
was necessary.
The types `LitInt`, `LitUint` and `LitIntUnsuffixed` where merged to one
type `LitInt` which stores it's value as `u64`. An additional parameter was
added which indicate the signedness of the type and the sign of the value.
Note: This PR is motivated by an attempt to write an custom syntax extension that tried to use `syntax::fold`, and that could only do so by fixing bugs in it and copying out private functions.

Refactored `syntax::fold`
Prior to this, the code there had a few issues:
- Default implementations inconsistenly either had the prefix `noop_` or
not.
- Some default methods where implemented in terms of a public noop function
for user code to call, others where implemented directly on the trait
and did not allow users of the trait to reuse the code.
- Some of the default implementations where private, and thus not reusable
for other implementors.
- There where some bugs where default implemntations called other default
implementations directly, rather than to the underlying Folder, with the
result of some ast nodes never being visted even if the user implemented that
method. (For example, the current Folder never folded struct fields)
This commit solves this situation somewhat radically by making __all__
`fold_...` functions in the module into Folder methods, and implementing
them all in terms of public `noop_...` functions for other implementors to
call out to.
Some public functions had to be renamed to fit the new system, so this is a
breaking change.

Also added a few trait implementations to `ast` types
This adds support for `quote_arm!(cx, $pat => $expr)`, and `macro_rules!(($a:arm) => (...))`. It also fixes a bug in pretty printing, where this would generate invalid code:
```
match { 5i } {
1 => 2,
_ => 3,
}
```
It would generate this code:
```
match { 5i } {
1 => 2
_ => 3
}
```
Finally, it adds a couple helper methods to `ExtCtxt`.
