Sebastian Thiel eface32e41 Add `make tips` as useful make target
By accident, I found the `make tips` target, which helped me to gain more insight on how to work with the system more quickly.

Emanuel Czirai e1d2eda7f3 allow RUST_BACKTRACE=0 to act as if unset
/# This is a combination of 16 commits.
/# The first commit's message is:
allow RUST_BACKTRACE=disabled to act as if unset

When RUST_BACKTRACE is set to "disabled" then this acts as if the env.
var is unset.

/# This is the 2nd commit message:

case insensitive "DiSaBLeD" RUST_BACKTRACE value

previously it expected a lowercase "disabled" to treat the env. var as
unset

/# This is the 3rd commit message:

RUST_BACKTRACE=0 acts as if unset

previously RUST_BACKTRACE=disabled was doing the same thing

/# This is the 4th commit message:

RUST_BACKTRACE=0|n|no|off acts as if unset

previously only RUST_BACKTRACE=0 acted as if RUST_BACKTRACE was unset
Now added more options (case-insensitive): 'n','no' and 'off'
eg. RUST_BACKTRACE=oFF

/# This is the 5th commit message:

DRY on the value of 2

DRY=don't repeat yourself
Because having to remember to keep the two places of '2' in sync is not
ideal, even though this is a simple enough case.

/# This is the 6th commit message:

Revert "DRY on the value of 2"

This reverts commit 95a0479d5cf72a2b2d9d21ec0bed2823ed213fef.

Nevermind this DRY on 2, because we already have a RY on 1,
besides the code is less readable this way...

/# This is the 7th commit message:

attempt to document unsetting RUST_BACKTRACE

/# This is the 8th commit message:

curb allocations when checking for RUST_BACKTRACE

this means we don't check for case-insensitivity anymore

/# This is the 9th commit message:

as decided, RUST_BACKTRACE=0 turns off backtrace

/# This is the 10th commit message:

RUST_TEST_NOCAPTURE=0 acts as if unset

(that is, capture is on)

Any other value acts as if nocapture is enabled (that is, capture is off)

/# This is the 11th commit message:

update other RUST_TEST_NOCAPTURE occurrences

apparently only one place needs updating

/# This is the 12th commit message:

update RUST_BACKTRACE in man page

/# This is the 13th commit message:

handle an occurrence of RUST_BACKTRACE

/# This is the 14th commit message:

ensure consistency with new rules for backtrace

/# This is the 15th commit message:

a more concise comment for RUST_TEST_NOCAPTURE

/# This is the 16th commit message:

update RUST_TEST_NOCAPTURE in man page

Greg Chapple dc6ed63655 Added info on the build system to contributing guide
I recently wrote a blog post on contributing to the Rust compiler which
gained some interest. It was mentioned in a comment on Reddit that it
would be useful to integrate some of the information from that post to
the official contributing guide.

This is the start of my efforts to integrate what I wrote with the
official guide.

This commit adds information on the build system. It is not a complete
guide on the build system, but it should be enough to provide a good
starting place for those wishing to contribute.

Steve Klabnik f645cad3a1 CONTRIBUTING.md redux
This redux of CONTRIBUTING.md adds in more information, including
subsuming both compliment-bugreport.md and Note-development-policy
in the wiki.

I only glanced at the broad TOC of Note-development-policy, and did
not use the text as the basis for the re-write. This will then address
the last outstanding part of #5831.
