Whenever a type implements Deref, rustdoc will now add a section to the "methods
available" sections for "Methods from Deref<Target=Foo>", listing all the
inherent methods of the type `Foo`.
Closes#19190
This ends up causing duplicate output in rustdoc. The source of these duplicates
is that the item is defined in both resolve namespaces, so it's listed twice.
Closes#23207
* All bounds are now discovered through the trait to be inlined.
* The `?Sized` bound now renders correctly for inlined associated types.
* All `QPath`s (`<A as B>::C`) instances are rendered as `A::C` where `C` is a
hyperlink to the trait `B`. This should improve at least how the docs look at
least.
* Supertrait bounds are now separated and display as the source lists them.

This ensures that all external traits are run through the same filters that the
rest of the AST goes through, stripping hidden function as necessary.
Closes#13698
us to construct trait-references and do other things without forcing a
full evaluation of the supertraits. One downside of this scheme is that
we must invoke `ensure_super_predicates` before using any construct that
might require knowing about the super-predicates.
rustdoc impl item did not include default methods for local crates, but did include them for external crates. This resulted in duplicate methods. Fix so that impl item does not include default methods for external crates.
Fix#22595.
fmt::Show is for debugging, and can and should be implemented for
all public types. This trait is used with `{:?}` syntax. There still
exists #[derive(Show)].
fmt::String is for types that faithfully be represented as a String.
Because of this, there is no way to derive fmt::String, all
implementations must be purposeful. It is used by the default format
syntax, `{}`.
This will break most instances of `{}`, since that now requires the type
to impl fmt::String. In most cases, replacing `{}` with `{:?}` is the
correct fix. Types that were being printed specifically for users should
receive a fmt::String implementation to fix this.

Build `clean::ConstantItem` values in the `inline` module and
pretty-print the AST for inlined const items.
Doc strings are still missing from inlined constants (see #19773).

The current terminology of "task failure" often causes problems when
writing or speaking about code. You often want to talk about the
possibility of an operation that returns a Result "failing", but cannot
because of the ambiguity with task failure. Instead, you have to speak
of "the failing case" or "when the operation does not succeed" or other
circumlocutions.
Likewise, we use a "Failure" header in rustdoc to describe when
operations may fail the task, but it would often be helpful to separate
out a section describing the "Err-producing" case.
We have been steadily moving away from task failure and toward Result as
an error-handling mechanism, so we should optimize our terminology
accordingly: Result-producing functions should be easy to describe.
To update your code, rename any call to `fail!` to `panic!` instead.
Assuming you have not created your own macro named `panic!`, this
will work on UNIX based systems:
grep -lZR 'fail!' . | xargs -0 -l sed -i -e 's/fail!/panic!/g'
You can of course also do this by hand.

Fixes that unit-like structs cannot be used if they are reexported and
used in another crate. The compiler fails with an ICE, because unit-like
structs are exported as DefFn and the expression `UnitStruct` is
interpreted as function pointer instead of a call to the constructor.
To resolve this ambiguity tuple-like struct constructors are now exported
as CtorFn. When `rustc::metadata::decoder` finds a CtorFn it sets a new
flag `is_ctor` in DefFn to true.
Relevant changes are in `rustc::metadata::{encoder, decoder}` and in
`rustc::middle::ty`.
Closes#12660 and #16973.
The implementation essentially desugars during type collection and AST
type conversion time into the parameter scheme we have now. Only fully
qualified names--e.g. `<T as Foo>::Bar`--are supported.

# Changes to `core::option`
Most of the module is marked as stable or unstable; most of the unstable items are awaiting resolution of conventions issues.
However, a few methods have been deprecated, either due to lack of use or redundancy:
* `take_unwrap`, `get_ref` and `get_mut_ref` (redundant, and we prefer for this functionality to go through an explicit .unwrap)
* `filtered` and `while`
* `mutate` and `mutate_or_set`
* `collect`: this functionality is being moved to a new `FromIterator` impl.
# Changes to `core::result`
Most of the module is marked as stable or unstable; most of the unstable items are awaiting resolution of conventions issues.
* `collect`: this functionality is being moved to a new `FromIterator` impl.
* `fold_` is deprecated due to lack of use
* Several methods found in `core::option` are added here, including `iter`, `as_slice`, and variants.
Due to deprecations, this is a:
