090040bf40 librustc: Remove ~EXPR, ~TYPE, and ~PAT from the language, except
for `~str`/`~[]`.

Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.

How to update your code:

* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.

* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.

* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

Commits for details.

This shouldn't change the generated code at all (except for switching to `LitBinary` from an explicit ExprVec of individual ExprLit bytes for `prefix_bytes`).

1ad0cba5e6 regex_macros: simplify using AstBuilder & the improved quoting.
char literals now work in a quotation.

There were several instances of duplicated functionality in regex_macros
compared to AstBuilder so refactor those out.

de14a739ae regex: remove the use of ~[] & some unnecessary ~'s.
The AST doesn't need ~s everywhere, so we can save allocations this way
& the enum isn't particularly large (~4 words) nor are regexes
long (normally), so the space saved in the `Cat` vector is unlikely to
be very much.
