The Guide isn't 100% perfect, but it's basically complete. It's
certainly better than the tutorial is. Time to start pointing more
people its way.
I also just made it consistent to call all things 'guides' rather than
tutorials.
Fixes#9874. This is the big one.
And two bugs that just go away.
Fixes#14503.
Fixes#15009.

Avoid ever constructing cyclic types in the first place, rather than detecting them in resolve. This simplifies logic elsewhere in the compiler, in particular on the trait reform branch.

Bugs in pdflatex (#12804) are preventing the guide from landing (https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/16657). This solves the immediate problem by changing the build system to prefer lualatex, xelatex to pdflatex (which is apparently obsolete). Because the xelatex on the snapshot bot seems to completely ignore the `-output-directory` option, I also had to frob the makefiles a bit for that case.
The pointer in the slice must not be null, because enum representations
make that assumption. The `exchange_malloc` function returns a non-null
sentinel for the zero size case, and it must not be passed to the
`exchange_free` lang item.
Since the length is always equal to the true capacity, a branch on the
length is enough for most types. Slices of zero size types are
statically special cased to never attempt deallocation. This is the same
implementation as `Vec<T>`.
Closes#14395
This allows code to access the fields of tuples and tuple structs behind the feature gate `tuple_indexing`:
```rust
#![feature(tuple_indexing)]
let x = (1i, 2i);
assert_eq!(x.1, 2);
struct Point(int, int);
let origin = Point(0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.1, 0);
```
Implements [RFC 53](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/active/0053-tuple-accessors.md). Closes#16950.
This builds on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/17109, putting the target triple into the installer name so that we can have both 32-bit and 64-bit.
The resulting installers will be called `rust-0.12.0-pre-x86_64-w64-mingw32.exe`, etc.
This adds links to SO, reddit, and discuss to the README. The main intent is to start advertising discuss.rust-lang.org more, in a location that doesn't mislead casual users to it (people who are building Rust are more likely to be the right audience than those that are just visiting the web site).
Currently `./configure --llvm-root=...` and similar flags will break incremental builds by forcing reconfiguration on every `make`. This happens because `reconfig.mk` incorrectly treats submodules in the `-` (uninitialized) state as requiring reconfiguration, and `./configure` deliberately deinitializes unneeded submodules. The fix is to reconfigure only when submodules are in the `+` state (wrong commit checked out).
Previously, some parts of this optimization were impossible because the
alignment passed to the free function was not correct. That was fully
fixed by #17012.
Closes#17092

Based on an observation that strings and arguments are always interleaved, thanks to #15832. Additionally optimize invocations where formatting parameters are unspecified for all arguments, e.g. `"{} {:?} {:x}"`, by emptying the `__STATIC_FMTARGS` array. Next, `Arguments::new` replaces an empty slice with `None` so that passing empty `__STATIC_FMTARGS` generates slightly less machine code when `Arguments::new` is inlined. Furthermore, formatting itself treats these cases separately without making redundant copies of formatting parameters.
All in all, this adds a single mov instruction per `write!` in most cases. That's why code size has increased.
This allows code to access the fields of tuples and tuple structs:
let x = (1i, 2i);
assert_eq!(x.1, 2);
struct Point(int, int);
let origin = Point(0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.0, 0);
assert_eq!(origin.1, 0);
Format specs are ignored and not stored in case they're all default.
Restore default formatting parameters during iteration.
Pass `None` instead of empty slices of format specs to take advantage
of non-nullable pointer optimization.
Generate a call to one of two functions of `fmt::Argument`.
