libcore documentation for builtin macros
Fixes: #36272
Additionally I've edited docstring for `include!` a bit. (related PR #36404)
Unfortunately it seems there is no sane way to reexport empty macros definitions for their docstrings. To avoid copying the whole documentation for builtin macros I've only copied description and added links to `std` macro pages.
Implement `From<Cow<str>> for String` and `From<Cow<[T]>> for Vec<T>`.
Motivation: the `selectors` crate is generic over a string type, in order to support all of `String`, `string_cache::Atom`, and `gecko_string_cache::Atom`. Multiple trait bounds are used for the various operations done with these strings. One of these operations is creating a string (as efficiently as possible, re-using an existing memory allocation if possible) from `Cow<str>`.
The `std::convert::From` trait seems natural for this, but the relevant implementation was missing before this PR. To work around this I’ve added a `FromCowStr` trait in `selectors`, but with trait coherence that means one of `selectors` or `string_cache` needs to depend on the other to implement this trait. Using a trait from `std` would solve this.
The `Vec<T>` implementation is just added for consistency. I also tried a more general `impl<'a, O, B: ?Sized + ToOwned<Owned=O>> From<Cow<'a, B>> for O`, but (the compiler thinks?) it conflicts with `From<T> for T` the impl (after moving all of `collections::borrow` into `core::borrow` to work around trait coherence).
Avoid some allocations in the macro parser
These three commits reduce the number of heap allocations done when compiling rustc-benchmarks/html5ever-2016-08-25 by 20%, from 16.5M to 13.3M. This speeds up (debug) compilation of it with a stage1 compiler by about 7%.
Fix line stepping in debugger.
Attribute drop code to block's closing brace, instead of the line where the allocation was done.
Attribute function epilogues to function body's closing brace, rather than the function header.

Use a faster `deflate` setting
In #37086 we have considered various ideas for reducing the cost of LLVM bytecode compression. This PR implements the simplest of these: use a faster `deflate` setting. It's very simple and reduces the compression time by almost half while increasing the size of the resulting rlibs by only about 2%.
I looked at using zstd, which might be able to halve the compression time again. But integrating zstd is beyond my Rust FFI integration abilities at the moment -- it consists of a few dozen C files, has a non-trivial build system, etc. I decided it was worth getting a big chunk of the possible improvement with minimum effort.
The following table shows the before and after percentages of instructions executed during compression while doing debug builds of some of the rustc-benchmarks with a stage1 compiler.
```
html5ever-2016-08-25 1.4% -> 0.7%
hyper.0.5.0 3.8% -> 2.4%
inflate-0.1.0 1.0% -> 0.5%
piston-image-0.10.3 2.9% -> 1.8%
regex.0.1.30 3.4% -> 2.1%
rust-encoding-0.3.0 4.8% -> 2.9%
syntex-0.42.2 2.9% -> 1.8%
syntex-0.42.2-incr-clean 14.2% -> 8.9%
```
The omitted ones spend 0% of their time in decompression.

remove keys w/ skolemized regions from proj cache when popping skolemized regions
This addresses #37154 (a regression). The projection cache was incorrectly caching the results for skolemized regions -- when we pop skolemized regions, we are supposed to drop cache keys for them (just as we remove those skolemized regions from the region inference graph). This is because those skolemized region numbers will be reused later with different meaning (and we have determined that the old ones don't leak out in any meaningful way).
I did a *somewhat* aggressive fix here of only removing keys that mention the skolemized regions. One could imagine just removing all keys added since we started the skolemization (as indeed I did in my initial commit). This more aggressive fix required fixing a latent bug in `TypeFlags`, as an aside.
I believe the more aggressive fix is correct; clearly there can be entries that are unrelated to the skoelemized region, and it's a shame to remove them. My one concern was that it *is* possible I believe to have some region variables that are created and related to skolemized regions, and maybe some of them could end up in the cache. However, that seems harmless enough to me-- those relations will be removed, and couldn't have impacted how trait resolution proceeded anyway (iow, the cache entry is not wrong, though it is kind of useless).

TRPL: guessing game: minor clarification
The original text is correct and exact, but might confuse a non-English speaker (at least I was confused), so I made it a bit more plain (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/37307).
I know minor wording changes like these are affected by personal style, so I'd understand if you don't find this useful.

Add error explaination for E0182, E0230 and E0399
This PR adds some error descriptions requested in issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32777.
r? @GuillaumeGomez
Specifically this adds descriptions for
E0182 - unexpected binding of associated item in expression path
E0230 - missing type parameter from on_unimplemented description
E0399 - overriding a trait type without re-implementing default methods
Motivation: the `selectors` crate is generic over a string type,
in order to support all of `String`, `string_cache::Atom`, and
`gecko_string_cache::Atom`. Multiple trait bounds are used
for the various operations done with these strings.
One of these operations is creating a string (as efficiently as possible,
re-using an existing memory allocation if possible) from `Cow<str>`.
The `std::convert::From` trait seems natural for this, but
the relevant implementation was missing before this PR.
To work around this I’ve added a `FromCowStr` trait in `selectors`,
but with trait coherence that means one of `selectors` or `string_cache`
needs to depend on the other to implement this trait.
Using a trait from `std` would solve this.
The `Vec<T>` implementation is just added for consistency.
I also tried a more general
`impl<'a, O, B: ?Sized + ToOwned<Owned=O>> From<Cow<'a, B>> for O`,
but (the compiler thinks?) it conflicts with `From<T> for T` the impl
(after moving all of `collections::borrow` into `core::borrow`
to work around trait coherence).
syntax: Tweak path parsing logic
Associated paths starting with `<<` are parsed in patterns.
Paths like `self::foo::bar` are interpreted as paths and not as `self` arguments in methods (cc @matklad).
Now, I believe, *all* paths are consistently parsed greedily in case of ambiguity.
Detection of `&'a mut self::` requires pretty large (but still fixed) lookahead, so I had to increase the size of parser's lookahead buffer.
Curiously, if `lookahead_distance >= lookahead_buffer_size` was used previously, the parser hung forever, I fixed this as well, now it ICEs.

macros: Future proof `#[no_link]`
This PR future proofs `#[no_link]` for macro modularization (cc #35896).
First, we resolve all `#[no_link] extern crate`s. `#[no_link]` crates without `#[macro_use]` or `#[macro_reexport]` are not resolved today, this is a [breaking-change]. For example,
```rust
```
Any breakage can be fixed by simply removing the `#[no_link] extern crate`.
Second, `#[no_link] extern crate`s will define an empty module in type namespace to eventually allow importing the crate's macros with `use`. This is a [breaking-change], for example:
```rust
mod syntax {} //< This becomes a duplicate error.
```

Enable line number debuginfo in releases
This commit enables by default passing the `-C debuginfo=1` argument to the
compiler for the stable, beta, and nightly release channels. A new configure
option was also added, `--enable-debuginfo-lines`, to enable this behavior in
developer builds as well.
Closes#36452
