This closes#5204 and #6421.
This also removes the `vecs_implicitly_copyable` lint (although now reading #6421, this may not be desired?). If we want to leave it in, it at least removes it from the compiler.
fail!() used to require owned strings but can handle static strings
now. Also, it can pass its arguments to fmt!() on its own, no need for
the caller to call fmt!() itself.

Also fix up all the fallout elsewhere throughout core. It's really nice being
able to have the prelude.
I'm not quite sure how resolution works with traits, but it seems to me like the public imports at the top-level of the core crate were leaking into the sub-crates, but that could also be working as intended. Regardless, things compile without the re-exports now.

* Move `SharedMutableState`, `LittleLock`, and `Exclusive` from `core::unstable` to `core::unstable::sync`
* Modernize the `SharedMutableState` interface with methods
* Rename `SharedMutableState` to `UnsafeAtomicRcBox` to match `RcBox`.
When trying to import nonexistent items from existing modules, specify that
that is what happened, rather than just reporting "unresolved name".
Ideally the error would be reported on the span of the import... but I do not see a way to get a span there. Help appreciated 😄
This pull request adds 4 atomic intrinsics to the compiler, in preparation for #5042.
* `atomic_load(src: &int) -> int` performs an atomic sequentially consistent load.
* `atomic_load_acq(src: &int) -> int` performs an atomic acquiring load.
* `atomic_store(dst: &mut int, val: int)` performs an atomic sequentially consistent store.
* `atomic_store_rel(dst: &mut int, val: int)` performs an atomic releasing store.

Every unresolved import is reported. An additional error message isn't useful
and obscures (imo) the real errors: I need to take it into account when
looking at the error count.
In this commit I added a useful utility type, named Void, that encapsulates the
doable but annoying job of creating an uninhabited type. As well, a function on
that type, named absurd, was created which is useful for ignoring the result of
matching on that type. No unit tests were created because it is not possible to
create an instance of this type to test the usage of.
This type is useful because it is like NonCopyable in that it can be used to
create a type with special characteristics without special bloat. For instance,
instead of typing pub struct PhantomType { priv contents : () } for each void
type one may want to use one can simply type pub struct PhantomType (Void);.
This type make such special cases much easier to write.
