&str can be turned into @~str on demand, using to_owned(), so for
strings, we can create a specialized interner that accepts &str for
intern() and find() but stores and returns @~str.

This pulls all the logic for discovering the crate entry point into a new pass (out of resolve and typeck), then changes it so that main is only looked for at the crate level (`#[main]` can still be used anywhere).
I don't understand the special android logic here and worry that I may have broken it.
In rustpkg, pass around sysroot; in rustpkg tests, set the sysroot
manually so that tests can find libcore and such.
With bonus metadata::filesearch refactoring to avoid copies.
Lots of linking arguments need to be passed as -Wl,--foo so giving the
comma meaning at the rustc layer makes those flags impossible to pass.
Multiple arguments can now be passed from a shell by quoting the
argument: --link-args='-lfoo -Wl,--as-needed'.
Adds two extra flags: `--linker` which takes extra flags to pass to the linker, can be used multiple times and `--print-link-args` which prints out linker arguments. Currently `--print-link-args` needs execution to get past translation to get the `LinkMeta` data.
I haven't done tests or updated any extra documentation yet, so this pull request is currently here for review.
Changes the parser to parse all streams into token-trees before hitting the parser proper, in preparation for hygiene. As an added bonus, it appears to speed up the parser (albeit by a totally imperceptible 1%).
Also, many comments in the parser.
Also, field renaming in token-trees (readme->forest, cur->stack).
I believe this patch incorporates all expected syntax changes from extern
function reform (#3678). You can now write things like:
extern "<abi>" fn foo(s: S) -> T { ... }
extern "<abi>" mod { ... }
extern "<abi>" fn(S) -> T
The ABI for foreign functions is taken from this syntax (rather than from an
annotation). We support the full ABI specification I described on the mailing
list. The correct ABI is chosen based on the target architecture.
Calls by pointer to C functions are not yet supported, and the Rust type of
crust fns is still *u8.
