The `std::net` primitives should be ready for use now and as a result the old
ones are now deprecated and slated for removal. Most TCP/UDP functionality is
now available through `std::net` but the `std::old_io::net::pipe` module is
removed entirely from the standard library.
Unix socket funtionality can be found in sfackler's [`unix_socket`][unix] crate
and there is currently no replacement for named pipes on Windows.

This affects the `set_non_blocking` function which cannot fail for Unix or
Windows, given correct parameters. Additionally, the short UDP write error case
has been removed as there is no such thing as "short UDP writes", instead, the
operating system will error out if the application tries to send a packet
larger than the MTU of the network path.
This removes a large array of deprecated functionality, regardless of how
recently it was deprecated. The purpose of this commit is to clean out the
standard libraries and compiler for the upcoming alpha release.
Some notable compiler changes were to enable warnings for all now-deprecated
command line arguments (previously the deprecated versions were silently
accepted) as well as removing deriving(Zero) entirely (the trait was removed).
The distribution no longer contains the libtime or libregex_macros crates. Both
of these have been deprecated for some time and are available externally.
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.

Closes#20068
This patch continues the runtime removal by moving pipe and
networking-related code into `sys`.
Because this eliminates APIs in `libnative` and `librustrt`, it is a:
[breaking-change]
This functionality is likely to be available publicly, in some form,
from `std` in the future.
