Implement "claim" (issue #14), which is a version of "check" that
doesn't really do the check at runtime. It's an unsafe feature.
The new flag --check-claims turns claims into checks automatically --
but it's off by default, so by default, the assertion in a claim
doesn't execute at runtime.
This will replace the various node_id-to-node mappings done in several
other passes. This commit already uses the new map in resolve, dropping
the ast_map that was built there before.
This reduces some redundancy in the AST data structures and cruft in
the code that works with them. To get a def_id from a node_id, apply
ast::local_def, which adds the local crate_num to the given node_id.
Most code only deals with crate-local node_ids, and won't have to
create def_ids at all.
These errors are non-fatal. The session.abort_if_errors function needs to be
called at strategic points to convert the previous errors to utter failure.

Issue #440
I added a "resolved" version of the ast::constr type -- ty::constr_def
-- that has a def_id field instead of an ann_field. This is more
consistent with other types and eliminates some checking.
Incidentally, I removed the def_map argument to the top-level function
in middle::alias, since the ty::ctxt already has a def_map field.
Changed function types to include a list of constraints. Added
code for parsing and pretty-printing constraints. This necessitated
splitting pprust into two files (pprust and ppaux) to break a
circulate dependency, as ty_to_str now needs to print out constraints,
which may include literals, but pprust depended on ty.
The alias checker works by ensuring that any value to which an alias
is created is rooted in some way that ensures it outlives the alias.
It is now disallowed to create an alias to the content of a mutable
box, or to a box hanging off a mutable field. There is also machinery
in place to prevent assignment to local variables whenever they are
the root of a live alias.
