The f128 type has very little support in the compiler and the feature is
basically unusable today. Supporting half-baked features in the compiler can be
detrimental to the long-term development of the compiler, and hence this feature
is being removed.
This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes
the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental
type in the prelude by default.

RFC #27.
After a snapshot, the old syntax will be removed.
This can break some code that looked like `foo as &Trait:Send`. Now you
will need to write `foo as (&Trait+Send)`.
Closes#12778.

This involves numerous substeps:
1. Treat Self same as any other parameter.
2. No longer compute offsets for method parameters.
3. Store all generic types (both trait/impl and method) with a method,
eliminating odd discrepancies.
4. Stop doing unspeakable things to static methods and instead just use
the natural types, now that we can easily add the type parameters from
trait into the method's polytype.
5. No doubt some more. It was hard to separate these into distinct commits.
Fixes#13564
Both of these items are surfaced as a DefTy, so some extra logic was needed in
the decoder module to figure out whether one is actually an enum or whether it's
a typedef.
Closes#14757
Previously, documentation for an inlined trait (i.e. a trait imported
and reexported from another crate) didn't display the trait's
supertraits.
Closes#14636
Cross crate links can target items which are not rendered in the documentation.
If the item is reexported at a higher level, the destination of the link (a
concatenation of the fully qualified name) may actually lead to nowhere. This
fixes this problem by altering rustdoc to emit pages which redirect to the local
copy of the reexported structure.

There is currently no way to query all impls for a type from an external crate,
and with primitive types in play this is also quite difficult. Instead of
filtering, just suck in all impls from upstream crates into the local AST, and
have them get stripped later.
This will allow population of all implementations of traits for primitive types,
as well as filling in some corner cases with inlining documentation in other
cases.
This commit adds support in rustdoc to recognize the `#[doc(primitive = "foo")]`
attribute. This attribute indicates that the current module is the "owner" of
the primitive type `foo`. For rustdoc, this means that the doc-comment for the
module is the doc-comment for the primitive type, plus a signal to all
downstream crates that hyperlinks for primitive types will be directed at the
crate containing the `#[doc]` directive.
Additionally, rustdoc will favor crates closest to the one being documented
which "implements the primitive type". For example, documentation of libcore
links to libcore for primitive types, but documentation for libstd and beyond
all links to libstd for primitive types.
This change involves no compiler modifications, it is purely a rustdoc change.
The landing pages for the primitive types primarily serve to show a list of
implemented traits for the primitive type itself.
The primitive types documented includes both strings and slices in a semi-ad-hoc
way, but in a way that should provide at least somewhat meaningful
documentation.
Closes#14474
This is part of the ongoing renaming of the equality traits. See #12517 for more
details. All code using Eq/Ord will temporarily need to move to Partial{Eq,Ord}
or the Total{Eq,Ord} traits. The Total traits will soon be renamed to {Eq,Ord}.
