56290a0044 std: Stabilize the prelude module
This commit is an implementation of [RFC 503][rfc] which is a stabilization
story for the prelude. Most of the RFC was directly applied, removing reexports.
Some reexports are kept around, however:

* `range` remains until range syntax has landed to reduce churn.
* `Path` and `GenericPath` remain until path reform lands. This is done to
  prevent many imports of `GenericPath` which will soon be removed.
* All `io` traits remain until I/O reform lands so imports can be rewritten all
  at once to `std::io::prelude::*`.

This is a breaking change because many prelude reexports have been removed, and
the RFC can be consulted for the exact list of removed reexports, as well as to
find the locations of where to import them.

f3a7ec7028 std: Second pass stabilization of sync
This pass performs a second pass of stabilization through the `std::sync`
module, avoiding modules/types that are being handled in other PRs (e.g.
mutexes, rwlocks, condvars, and channels).

The following items are now stable

* `sync::atomic`
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_BOOL_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_BOOL`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_INT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_INT`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_UINT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_UINT`)
* `sync::Once`
* `sync::ONCE_INIT`
* `sync::Once::call_once` (was `doit`)
  * C == `pthread_once(..)`
  * Boost == `call_once(..)`
  * Windows == `InitOnceExecuteOnce`
* `sync::Barrier`
* `sync::Barrier::new`
* `sync::Barrier::wait` (now returns a `bool`)
* `sync::Semaphore::new`
* `sync::Semaphore::acquire`
* `sync::Semaphore::release`

The following items remain unstable

* `sync::SemaphoreGuard`
* `sync::Semaphore::access` - it's unclear how this relates to the poisoning
                              story of mutexes.
* `sync::TaskPool` - the semantics of a failing task and whether a thread is
                     re-attached to a thread pool are somewhat unclear, and the
                     utility of this type in `sync` is question with respect to
                     the jobs of other primitives. This type will likely become
                     stable or move out of the standard library over time.
* `sync::Future` - futures as-is have yet to be deeply re-evaluated with the
                   recent core changes to Rust's synchronization story, and will
                   likely become stable in the future but are unstable until
                   that time comes.

9e224c2bf1 std: Re-enable at_exit()
The new semantics of this function are that the callbacks are run when the *main
thread* exits, not when all threads have exited. This implies that other threads
may still be running when the `at_exit` callbacks are invoked and users need to
be prepared for this situation.

Users in the standard library have been audited in accordance to these new rules
as well.

3801c2678f rollup merge of #20231: fhahn/issue-20226-eexist
I've created a patch for #20226, which maps `EEXIST` to the `PathAlreadyExists` error on Unix. To test this, I use `mkdir`, which raises `EEXIST` if the directory already exists.

On Windows, I map `ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS` to `PathAlreadyExist`, but I am note sure if `mkdir` on Windows raises `ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS` and do not have a Windows installation handy for testing.

And I noticed another thing. No error seems to map to `IoErrorKind::PathDoesntExist` and I am wondering what the difference to `FileNotFound` is?

4908017d59 std: Stabilize the std::str module
This commit starts out by consolidating all `str` extension traits into one
`StrExt` trait to be included in the prelude. This means that
`UnicodeStrPrelude`, `StrPrelude`, and `StrAllocating` have all been merged into
one `StrExt` exported by the standard library. Some functionality is currently
duplicated with the `StrExt` present in libcore.

This commit also currently avoids any methods which require any form of pattern
to operate. These functions will be stabilized via a separate RFC.

Next, stability of methods and structures are as follows:

Stable

* from_utf8_unchecked
* CowString - after moving to std::string
* StrExt::as_bytes
* StrExt::as_ptr
* StrExt::bytes/Bytes - also made a struct instead of a typedef
* StrExt::char_indices/CharIndices - CharOffsets was renamed
* StrExt::chars/Chars
* StrExt::is_empty
* StrExt::len
* StrExt::lines/Lines
* StrExt::lines_any/LinesAny
* StrExt::slice_unchecked
* StrExt::trim
* StrExt::trim_left
* StrExt::trim_right
* StrExt::words/Words - also made a struct instead of a typedef

Unstable

* from_utf8 - the error type was changed to a `Result`, but the error type has
              yet to prove itself
* from_c_str - this function will be handled by the c_str RFC
* FromStr - this trait will have an associated error type eventually
* StrExt::escape_default - needs iterators at least, unsure if it should make
                           the cut
* StrExt::escape_unicode - needs iterators at least, unsure if it should make
                           the cut
* StrExt::slice_chars - this function has yet to prove itself
* StrExt::slice_shift_char - awaiting conventions about slicing and shifting
* StrExt::graphemes/Graphemes - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::grapheme_indices/GraphemeIndices - this functionality may only be in
                                             libunicode
* StrExt::width - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::utf16_units - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfd_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfkd_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfc_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::nfkc_chars - this functionality may only be in libunicode
* StrExt::is_char_boundary - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_range_at - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_range_at_reverse - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_at - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrExt::char_at_reverse - naming is uncertain with container conventions
* StrVector::concat - this functionality may be replaced with iterators, but
                      it's not certain at this time
* StrVector::connect - as with concat, may be deprecated in favor of iterators

Deprecated

* StrAllocating and UnicodeStrPrelude have been merged into StrExit
* eq_slice - compiler implementation detail
* from_str - use the inherent parse() method
* is_utf8 - call from_utf8 instead
* replace - call the method instead
* truncate_utf16_at_nul - this is an implementation detail of windows and does
                          not need to be exposed.
* utf8_char_width - moved to libunicode
* utf16_items - moved to libunicode
* is_utf16 - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Items - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Item - moved to libunicode
* Utf16Encoder - moved to libunicode
* AnyLines - renamed to LinesAny and made a struct
* SendStr - use CowString<'static> instead
* str::raw - all functionality is deprecated
* StrExt::into_string - call to_string() instead
* StrExt::repeat - use iterators instead
* StrExt::char_len - use .chars().count() instead
* StrExt::is_alphanumeric - use .chars().all(..)
* StrExt::is_whitespace - use .chars().all(..)

Pending deprecation -- while slicing syntax is being worked out, these methods
are all #[unstable]

* Str - while currently used for generic programming, this trait will be
        replaced with one of [], deref coercions, or a generic conversion trait.
* StrExt::slice - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::slice_to - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::slice_from - use slicing syntax instead
* StrExt::lev_distance - deprecated with no replacement

Awaiting stabilization due to patterns and/or matching

* StrExt::contains
* StrExt::contains_char
* StrExt::split
* StrExt::splitn
* StrExt::split_terminator
* StrExt::rsplitn
* StrExt::match_indices
* StrExt::split_str
* StrExt::starts_with
* StrExt::ends_with
* StrExt::trim_chars
* StrExt::trim_left_chars
* StrExt::trim_right_chars
* StrExt::find
* StrExt::rfind
* StrExt::find_str
* StrExt::subslice_offset

5759cff48e std: Lower abstractions for thread_local/at_exit
The current implementations use `std::sync` primitives, but these primitives
currently end up relying on `thread_info` and a local `Thread` being available
(mainly for checking the panicking flag).

To get around this, this commit lowers the abstractions used by the windows
thread_local implementation as well as the at_exit_imp module. Both of these
modules now use a `sys::Mutex` and a `static mut` and manage the
allocation/locking manually.

a27fbac868 Revise std::thread API to join by default
This commit is part of a series that introduces a `std::thread` API to
replace `std::task`.

In the new API, `spawn` returns a `JoinGuard`, which by default will
join the spawned thread when dropped. It can also be used to join
explicitly at any time, returning the thread's result. Alternatively,
the spawned thread can be explicitly detached (so no join takes place).

As part of this change, Rust processes now terminate when the main
thread exits, even if other detached threads are still running, moving
Rust closer to standard threading models. This new behavior may break code
that was relying on the previously implicit join-all.

In addition to the above, the new thread API also offers some built-in
support for building blocking abstractions in user space; see the module
doc for details.

Closes #18000

2b3477d373 libs: merge librustrt into libstd
This commit merges the `rustrt` crate into `std`, undoing part of the
facade. This merger continues the paring down of the runtime system.

Code relying on the public API of `rustrt` will break; some of this API
is now available through `std::rt`, but is likely to change and/or be
removed very soon.

ddb2466f6a librustc: Always parse macro!()/macro![] as expressions if not
followed by a semicolon.

This allows code like `vec![1i, 2, 3].len();` to work.

This breaks code that uses macros as statements without putting
semicolons after them, such as:

    fn main() {
        ...
        assert!(a == b)
        assert!(c == d)
        println(...);
    }

It also breaks code that uses macros as items without semicolons:

    local_data_key!(foo)

    fn main() {
        println("hello world")
    }

Add semicolons to fix this code. Those two examples can be fixed as
follows:

    fn main() {
        ...
        assert!(a == b);
        assert!(c == d);
        println(...);
    }

    local_data_key!(foo);

    fn main() {
        println("hello world")
    }

Closes #18635.

08ce178866 rollup merge of #19274: alexcrichton/rewrite-sync
This commit is a reimplementation of `std::sync` to be based on the
system-provided primitives wherever possible. The previous implementation was
fundamentally built on top of channels, and as part of the runtime reform it has
become clear that this is not the level of abstraction that the standard level
should be providing. This rewrite aims to provide as thin of a shim as possible
on top of the system primitives in order to make them safe.

The overall interface of the `std::sync` module has in general not changed, but
there are a few important distinctions, highlighted below:

* The condition variable type, `Condvar`, has been separated out of a `Mutex`.
  A condition variable is now an entirely separate type. This separation
  benefits users who only use one mutex, and provides a clearer distinction of
  who's responsible for managing condition variables (the application).

* All of `Condvar`, `Mutex`, and `RWLock` are now directly built on top of
  system primitives rather than using a custom implementation. The `Once`,
  `Barrier`, and `Semaphore` types are still built upon these abstractions of
  the system primitives.

* The `Condvar`, `Mutex`, and `RWLock` types all have a new static type and
  constant initializer corresponding to them. These are provided primarily for C
  FFI interoperation, but are often useful to otherwise simply have a global
  lock. The types, however, will leak memory unless `destroy()` is called on
  them, which is clearly documented.

* The fundamental architecture of this design is to provide two separate layers.
  The first layer is that exposed by `sys_common` which is a cross-platform
  bare-metal abstraction of the system synchronization primitives. No attempt is
  made at making this layer safe, and it is quite unsafe to use! It is currently
  not exported as part of the API of the standard library, but the stabilization
  of the `sys` module will ensure that these will be exposed in time. The
  purpose of this layer is to provide the core cross-platform abstractions if
  necessary to implementors.

  The second layer is the layer provided by `std::sync` which is intended to be
  the thinnest possible layer on top of `sys_common` which is entirely safe to
  use. There are a few concerns which need to be addressed when making these
  system primitives safe:

    * Once used, the OS primitives can never be **moved**. This means that they
      essentially need to have a stable address. The static primitives use
      `&'static self` to enforce this, and the non-static primitives all use a
      `Box` to provide this guarantee.

    * Poisoning is leveraged to ensure that invalid data is not accessible from
      other tasks after one has panicked.

  In addition to these overall blanket safety limitations, each primitive has a
  few restrictions of its own:

    * Mutexes and rwlocks can only be unlocked from the same thread that they
      were locked by. This is achieved through RAII lock guards which cannot be
      sent across threads.

    * Mutexes and rwlocks can only be unlocked if they were previously locked.
      This is achieved by not exposing an unlocking method.

    * A condition variable can only be waited on with a locked mutex. This is
      achieved by requiring a `MutexGuard` in the `wait()` method.

    * A condition variable cannot be used concurrently with more than one mutex.
      This is guaranteed by dynamically binding a condition variable to
      precisely one mutex for its entire lifecycle. This restriction may be able
      to be relaxed in the future (a mutex is unbound when no threads are
      waiting on the condvar), but for now it is sufficient to guarantee safety.

* Condvars support timeouts for their blocking operations. The
  implementation for these operations is provided by the system.

Due to the modification of the `Condvar` API, removal of the `std::sync::mutex`
API, and reimplementation, this is a breaking change. Most code should be fairly
easy to port using the examples in the documentation of these primitives.

71d4e77db8 std: Rewrite the sync module
This commit is a reimplementation of `std::sync` to be based on the

* The `Condvar` implementation for an `RWLock` write lock has been removed. This

  commit is focused on exposing the system primitives first.

d6d4088bbf std: Close TcpListener with closesocket()
This may have inadvertently switched during the runtime overhaul, so this
switches TcpListener back to using sockets instead of file descriptors. This
also renames a bunch of variables called `fd` to `socket` to clearly show that
it's not a file descriptor.
