This commit disables rustc's emission of rpath attributes into dynamic libraries
and executables by default. The functionality is still preserved, but it must
now be manually enabled via a `-C rpath` flag.
This involved a few changes to the local build system:
* --disable-rpath is now the default configure option
* Makefiles now prefer our own LD_LIBRARY_PATH over the user's LD_LIBRARY_PATH
in order to support building rust with rust already installed.
* The compiletest program was taught to correctly pass through the aux dir as a
component of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in more situations.
The major impact of this change is that neither rustdoc nor rustc will work
out-of-the-box in all situations because they are dynamically linked. It must be
arranged to ensure that the libraries of a rust installation are part of the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The default installation paths for all platforms ensure this,
but if an installation is in a nonstandard location, then configuration may be
necessary.
Additionally, for all developers of rustc, it will no longer be possible to run
$target/stageN/bin/rustc out-of-the-box. The old behavior can be regained
through the `--enable-rpath` option to the configure script.
This change brings linux/mac installations in line with windows installations
where rpath is not possible.

This updates https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/15075.
Rename `ToStr::to_str` to `ToString::to_string`. The naive renaming ends up with two `to_string` functions defined on strings in the prelude (the other defined via `collections::str::StrAllocating`). To remedy this I removed `StrAllocating::to_string`, making all conversions from `&str` to `String` go through `Show`. This has a measurable impact on the speed of this conversion, but the sense I get from others is that it's best to go ahead and unify `to_string` and address performance for all `to_string` conversions in `core::fmt`. `String::from_str(...)` still works as a manual fast-path.
Note that the patch was done with a script, and ended up renaming a number of other `*_to_str` functions, particularly inside of rustc. All the ones I saw looked correct, and I didn't notice any additional API breakage.
Closes#15046.

[breaking-change] Use `Sized?` to indicate a dynamically sized type parameter or trait (used to be `type`). E.g.,
```
trait Tr for Sized? {}
fn foo<Sized? X: Share>(x: X) {}

Extend the null ptr optimization to work with slices, closures, procs, & trait objects by using the internal pointers as the discriminant.
This decreases the size of `Option<&[int]>` (and similar) by one word.
This will break code that used the old `Index` trait. Change this code
to use the new `Index` traits. For reference, here are their signatures:
pub trait Index<Index,Result> {
fn index<'a>(&'a self, index: &Index) -> &'a Result;
}
pub trait IndexMut<Index,Result> {
fn index_mut<'a>(&'a mut self, index: &Index) -> &'a mut Result;
}

I ran `make check` and everything went smoothly. I also tested `#[deriving(Decodable, Encodable)]` on a struct containing both Cell<T> and RefCell<T> and everything now seems to work fine.
LLVM doesn't handle i1 value in allocas/memory very well and skips a number of optimizations if it hits it. So we have to do the same thing that Clang does, using i1 for SSA values, but storing i8 in memory.
Fixes#15203.
LLVM doesn't really like types with a bit-width that isn't a multiple of
8 and disable various optimizations if it encounters such types used
with loads/stores. OTOH, booleans must be represented as i1 when used as
SSA values. To get the best results, we must use i1 for SSA values, and
i8 when storing the value to memory.
By using range asserts on loads, LLVM can eliminate the required
zero-extend and truncate operations.

`Vec::push_all` with a length 1 slice seems to have significant overhead compared to `Vec::push`.

This is an implementation of [RFC 35](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0035-remove-crate-id.md).
The summary for this PR is the same as that of the RFC, with one addendum:
* Removes the `#[crate_id]` attribute and knowledge of versions from rustc.
* Added a `#[crate_name]` attribute similar to the old `#[crate_id]` attribute
* Output filenames no longer have versions or hashes
* Symbols no longer have versions (they still have hashes)
* A new flag, `--extern`, is used to override searching for external crates
* A new flag, `-C metadata=foo`, used when hashing symbols
* [added] An old flag, `--crate-name`, was re purposed to specify the crate name from the command line.
I tried to maintain backwards compatibility wherever possible (with warnings being printed). If I missed anywhere, however, please let me know!

See commits for info, a number of these are 'breaking', although liburl is marked experimental so I'm not sure that matters so much.
First two commits will be impacted if #15138 is adopted, but it's a simple rename.
In a cargo-driven world the primary location for the name of a crate will be in
its manifest, not in the source file itself. The purpose of this flag is to
reduce required duplication for new cargo projects.
This is a breaking change because the existing --crate-name flag actually
printed the crate name. This flag was renamed to --print-crate-name, and to
maintain consistence, the --crate-file-name flag was renamed to
--print-file-name.
To maintain backwards compatibility, the --crate-file-name flag is still
recognized, but it is deprecated.
