Long-standing branch to remove foreign function wrappers altogether. Calls to C functions are done "in place" with no stack manipulation; the scheme relies entirely on the correct use of `#[fixed_stack_segment]` to guarantee adequate stack space. A linter is added to detect when `#[fixed_stack_segment]` annotations are missing. An `externfn!` macro is added to make it easier to declare foreign fns and wrappers in one go: this macro may need some refinement, though, for example it might be good to be able to declare a group of foreign fns. I leave that for future work (hopefully somebody else's work :) ).
Fixes#3678.
See discussion in #8489, but this selects option 3 by adding a `Default` trait to be implemented by various basic types.
Once this makes it into a snapshot I think it's about time to start overhauling all current use-cases of `fmt!` to move towards `ifmt!`. The goal is to replace `%X` with `{}` in 90% of situations, and this commit should enable that.
@brson grilled me about how this bugfix worked the first time around, and it occurred to me that it didn't in the case where the task is unwinding. Now it will.
Address issue #5257, for example these values all had the same hash value:
("aaa", "bbb", "ccc")
("aaab", "bb", "ccc")
("aaabbb", "", "ccc")
IterBytes for &[A] now includes the length, before calling iter_bytes on
each element.
IterBytes for &str is now terminated by a byte that does not appear in
UTF-8. This way only one more byte is processed when hashing strings.

I need `Clone` for `Tm` for my latest work on [rust-http](https://github.com/chris-morgan/rust-http) (static typing for headers, and headers like `Date` are a time), so here it is.
@huonw recommended deriving DeepClone while I was at it.
I also had to implement `DeepClone` for `~str` to get a derived implementation of `DeepClone` for `Tm`; I did `@str` while I was at it, for consistency.
This allows the internal implementation details of the TLS keys to be
changed without requiring the update of all the users. (Or, applying
changes that *have* to be applied for the keys to work correctly, e.g.
forcing LLVM to not merge these constants.)
Retry of PR #8471
Replace the remaining functions marked for issue #8228 with similar functions that are iterator-based.
Change `either::{lefts, rights}` to be iterator-filtering instead of returning a vector.
Replace `map_vec`, `map_vec2`, `iter_vec2` in std::result with three functions:
* `result::collect` gathers `Iterator<Result<V, U>>` to `Result<~[V], U>`
* `result::fold` folds `Iterator<Result<T, E>>` to `Result<V, E>`
* `result::fold_` folds `Iterator<Result<T, E>>` to `Result<(), E>`

Fixes#7722
I had a couple of queries:
- Should this return an array or an iterator?
- Should this be a method on iterators or on the rng? I implemented it in RngUtils as it seemed to belong with shuffle().
If they are on the trait then it is extremely annoying to use them as
generic parameters to a function, e.g. with the iterator param on the trait
itself, if one was to pass an Extendable<int> to a function that filled it
either from a Range or a Map<VecIterator>, one needs to write something
like:
fn foo<E: Extendable<int, Range<int>> +
Extendable<int, Map<&'self int, int, VecIterator<int>>>
(e: &mut E, ...) { ... }
since using a generic, i.e. `foo<E: Extendable<int, I>, I: Iterator<int>>`
means that `foo` takes 2 type parameters, and the caller has to specify them
(which doesn't work anyway, as they'll mismatch with the iterators used in
`foo` itself).
This patch changes it to:
fn foo<E: Extendable<int>>(e: &mut E, ...) { ... }
.with_c_str() is a replacement for the old .as_c_str(), to avoid
unnecessary boilerplate.
Replace all usages of .to_c_str().with_ref() with .with_c_str().
Previous dicussions about CString suggested that interior nulls should
throw an error. This was never implemented. Add this now, using a
condition (named null_byte) to allow for recovery.
Add method .to_c_str_unchecked() that skips this check.
Replace these with three functions based on iterators: collect, fold,
and fold_. The mapping part is replaced by iterator .map(), so the part
that these functions do is to accumulate the final Result<,> value.
* `result::collect` gathers `Iterator<Result<V, U>>` to `Result<~[V], U>`
* `result::fold` folds `Iterator<Result<T, E>>` to `Result<V, E>`
* `result::fold_` folds `Iterator<Result<T, E>>` to `Result<(), E>`
Remove the only use of either::partition since it was better
accomplished with vector methods.
Update either::partition so that it sizes the vectors correctly before
it starts.
