[breaking-change] Use `Sized?` to indicate a dynamically sized type parameter or trait (used to be `type`). E.g.,
```
trait Tr for Sized? {}
fn foo<Sized? X: Share>(x: X) {}
```
This pull request adds hygiene for 3 kinds of argument bindings:
- arguments to item fns,
- arguments to `ExprFnBlock`s, and
- arguments to `ExprProc`s
It also adds a bunch of unit tests, fixes a few macro uses to be non-capturing, and has a few cleanup items.
local `make check` succeeds.
This was parsed by the parser but completely ignored; not even stored in
the AST!
This breaks code that looks like:
static X: &'static [u8] = &'static [1, 2, 3];
Change this code to the shorter:
static X: &'static [u8] = &[1, 2, 3];
Closes#15312.

Rationale: for what appear to be historical reasons only, the PatIdent contains
a Path rather than an Ident. This means that there are many places in the code
where an ident is artificially promoted to a path, and---much more problematically---
a bunch of elements from a path are simply thrown away, which seems like an invitation
to some really nasty bugs.
This commit replaces the Path in a PatIdent with a SpannedIdent, which just contains an ident
and a span.
Being able to index into the bytes of a string encourages
poor UTF-8 hygiene. To get a view of `&[u8]` from either
a `String` or `&str` slice, use the `as_bytes()` method.
Closes#12710.

This change registers new snapshots, allowing `*T` to be removed from the language. This is a large breaking change, and it is recommended that if compiler errors are seen that any FFI calls are audited to determine whether they should be actually taking `*mut T`.
This PR includes two big things and a bunch of little ones.
1) It enables hygiene for variables bound by 'match' expressions.
2) It fixes a bug discovered indirectly (#15221), wherein fold traversal failed to visit nonterminal nodes.
3) It fixes a small bug in the macro tutorial.
It also adds tests for the first two, and makes a bunch of small comment improvements and cleanup.
This change starts denying `*T` in the parser. All code using `*T` should ensure
that the FFI call does indeed take `const T*` on the other side before renaming
the type to `*const T`.
Otherwise, all code can rename `*T` to `*const T`.

The f128 type has very little support in the compiler and the feature is
basically unusable today. Supporting half-baked features in the compiler can be
detrimental to the long-term development of the compiler, and hence this feature
is being removed.
This breaks a fair amount of code. The typical patterns are:
* `for _ in range(0, 10)`: change to `for _ in range(0u, 10)`;
* `println!("{}", 3)`: change to `println!("{}", 3i)`;
* `[1, 2, 3].len()`: change to `[1i, 2, 3].len()`.
RFC #30. Closes#6023.

Unit-like structs are written as `struct Foo;`, but we erroneously
accepted `struct Foo();` and took it to mean the same thing. Now we
don't, so use the `struct Foo;` form!

The parser already has special logic for parsing `>` tokens from `>>`, and this
commit extends the logic to the acquiring a `>` from the `>=` and `>>=` tokens
as well.
Closes#15043
The lexer already ignores CRLF in between tokens, but it doesn't
properly handle carriage returns inside strings and doc comments. Teach
it to treat CRLF as LF inside these tokens, and to disallow carriage
returns that are not followed by linefeeds. This includes handling an
escaped CRLF inside a regular string token the same way it handles an
escaped LF.
This is technically a breaking change, as bare carriage returns are no
longer allowed, and CRLF sequences are now treated as LF inside strings
and doc comments, but it's very unlikely to actually affect any
real-world code.
This change is necessary to have Rust code compile on Windows the same
way it does on Unix. The mozilla/rust repository explicitly sets eol=lf
for Rust source files, but other Rust repositories don't. Notably,
rust-http cannot be compiled on Windows without converting the CRLF line
endings back to LF.

Teach StringReader how to emit errors for arbitrary spans, so we don't
need to modify peek_span. This allows for emitting errors without having
a &mut borrow of the StringReader.
See #14646 (tracking issue) and rust-lang/rfcs#69.
This does not close the tracking issue, as the `bytes!()` macro still needs to be removed. It will be later, after a snapshot is made with the changes in this PR, so that the new syntax can be used when bootstrapping the compiler.
Use ty_rptr/ty_uniq(ty_trait) rather than TraitStore to represent trait types.
Also addresses (but doesn't close) #12470.
Part of the work towards DST (#12938).
[breaking-change] lifetime parameters in `&mut trait` are now invariant. They used to be contravariant.
Move into a new syntax::parse::lexer::StringReader method the code
that was almost duplicated for parsing backslash-escapes in
byte, byte string, char, and string literals.
This removes all remnants of `@` pointers from rustc. Additionally, this removes
the `GC` structure from the prelude as it seems odd exporting an experimental
type in the prelude by default.
Closes#14193

RFC #27.
After a snapshot, the old syntax will be removed.
This can break some code that looked like `foo as &Trait:Send`. Now you
will need to write `foo as (&Trait+Send)`.
Closes#12778.

This adopts @jbclements' solution to #14539.
I'm not sure if this is a breaking change or not.

The following features have been removed
* box [a, b, c]
* ~[a, b, c]
* box [a, ..N]
* ~[a, ..N]
* ~[T] (as a type)
* deprecated_owned_vector lint
All users of ~[T] should move to using Vec<T> instead.
