New const traits syntax This PR only affects the AST and doesn't actually change anything semantically. All occurrences of `~const` outside of libcore have been replaced by `[const]`. Within libcore we have to wait for rustfmt to be bumped in the bootstrap compiler. This will happen "automatically" (when rustfmt is run) during the bootstrap bump, as rustfmt converts `~const` into `[const]`. After this we can remove the `~const` support from the parser Caveat discovered during impl: there is no legacy bare trait object recovery for `[const] Trait` as that snippet in type position goes down the slice /array parsing code and will error r? ``@fee1-dead`` cc ``@nikomatsakis`` ``@traviscross`` ``@compiler-errors`` |

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax
– that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).
For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
