This will hopefully help people with their first steps in Rust.

Fixes rust-lang#16143.
This is just a refactoring of the current installer so that Rust and Cargo
use the same codebase.

cc rust-lang#16456
This commit deprecates a few more in-tree libs for their crates.io counterparts.
Note that this commit does not make use of the #[deprecated] tag to prevent
warnings from being generated for in-tree usage. Once #[unstable] warnings are
turned on then all external users will be warned to move.

These crates have all been duplicated in rust-lang/$crate repositories so
development can happen independently of the in-tree copies. We can explore at a
later date replacing the in-tree copies with the external copies, but at this
time the libraries have changed very little over the past few months so it's
unlikely for changes to be sent to both repos.

cc rust-lang#19260
Using a type alias for iterator implementations is fragile since this
exposes the implementation to users of the iterator, and any changes
could break existing code.

This commit changes the iterators of `VecMap` to use
proper new types, rather than type aliases.  However, since it is
fair-game to treat a type-alias as the aliased type, this is a:

[breaking-change].
The primary focus of Rust's stability story at 1.0 is the standard library.
All other libraries distributed with the Rust compiler are planned to
be #[unstable] and therfore only accessible on the nightly channel of Rust. One
of the more widely used libraries today is libserialize, Rust's current solution
for encoding and decoding types.

The current libserialize library, however, has a number of drawbacks:

* The API is not ready to be stabilize as-is and we will likely not have enough
  resources to stabilize the API for 1.0.
* The library is not necessarily the speediest implementations with alternatives
  being developed out-of-tree (e.g. serde from erickt).
* It is not clear how the API of Encodable/Decodable can evolve over time while
  maintaining backwards compatibility.

One of the major pros to the current libserialize, however, is
`deriving(Encodable, Decodable)` as short-hands for enabling serializing and
deserializing a type. This is unambiguously useful functionality, so we cannot
simply deprecate the in-tree libserialize in favor of an external crates.io
implementation.

For these reasons, this commit starts off a stability story for libserialize by
following these steps:

1. The deriving(Encodable, Decodable) modes will be deprecated in favor of a
   renamed deriving(RustcEncodable, RustcDecodable).
2. The in-tree libserialize will be deprecated in favor of an external
   rustc-serialize crate shipped on crates.io. The contents of the crate will be
   the same for now (but they can evolve separately).
3. At 1.0 serialization will be performed through
   deriving(RustcEncodable, RustcDecodable) and the rustc-serialize crate. The
   expansions for each deriving mode will change from `::serialize::foo` to
   `::rustc_serialize::foo`.

This story will require that the compiler freezes its implementation of
`RustcEncodable` deriving for all of time, but this should be a fairly minimal
maintenance burden. Otherwise the crate in crates.io must always maintain the
exact definition of its traits, but the implementation of json, for example, can
continue to evolve in the semver-sense.

The major goal for this stabilization effort is to pave the road for a new
official serialization crate which can replace the current one, solving many of
its downsides in the process. We are not assuming that this will exist for 1.0,
hence the above measures. Some possibilities for replacing libserialize include:

* If plugins have a stable API, then any crate can provide a custom `deriving`
  mode (will require some compiler work). This means that any new serialization
  crate can provide its own `deriving` with its own backing
  implementation, entirely obsoleting the current libserialize and fully
  replacing it.

* Erick is exploring the possibility of code generation via preprocessing Rust
  source files in the near term until plugins are stable. This strategy would
  provide the same ergonomic benefit that `deriving` does today in theory.

So, in summary, the current libserialize crate is being deprecated in favor of
the crates.io-based rustc-serialize crate where the `deriving` modes are
appropriately renamed. This opens up space for a later implementation of
serialization in a more official capacity while allowing alternative
implementations to be explored in the meantime.

Concretely speaking, this change adds support for the `RustcEncodable` and
`RustcDecodable` deriving modes. After a snapshot is made warnings will be
turned on for usage of `Encodable` and `Decodable` as well as deprecating the
in-tree libserialize crate to encurage users to use rustc-serialize instead.
Error message has wrong spelling ("radix is to high").
Closes rust-lang#14602.  As discussed in that issue, the existing `at` and `name`
functions represent two different results with the empty string:

1. Matched the empty string.
2. Did not match anything.

Consider the following example.  This regex has two named matched
groups, `key` and `value`. `value` is optional:

```rust
// Matches "foo", "foo;v=bar" and "foo;v=".
regex!(r"(?P<key>[a-z]+)(;v=(?P<value>[a-z]*))?");
```

We can access `value` using `caps.name("value")`, but there's no way for
us to distinguish between the `"foo"` and `"foo;v="` cases.

Early this year, @BurntSushi recommended modifying the existing `at` and
`name` functions to return `Option`, instead of adding new functions to
the API.

This is a [breaking-change], but the fix is easy:

- `refs.at(1)` becomes `refs.at(1).unwrap_or("")`.
- `refs.name(name)` becomes `refs.name(name).unwrap_or("")`.
Both ContravariantLifetime and CovariantLifetime are marked as Copy,
so it makes sense for InvariantLifetime to be as well.
This commit takes a second pass through the `std::option` module to fully
stabilize any lingering methods inside of it.

These items were made stable as-is

* Some
* None
* as_mut
* expect
* unwrap
* unwrap_or
* unwrap_or_else
* map
* map_or
* map_or_else
* and_then
* or_else
* unwrap_or_default
* Default implementation
* FromIterator implementation
* Copy implementation

These items were made stable with modifications

* iter - now returns a struct called Iter
* iter_mut - now returns a struct called IterMut
* into_iter - now returns a struct called IntoIter, Clone is never implemented

This is a breaking change due to the modifications to the names of the iterator
types returned. Code referencing the old names should updated to referencing the
newer names instead. This is also a breaking change due to the fact that
`IntoIter` no longer implements the `Clone` trait.

These items were explicitly not stabilized

* as_slice - waiting on indexing conventions
* as_mut_slice - waiting on conventions with as_slice as well
* cloned - the API was still just recently added
* ok_or - API remains experimental
* ok_or_else - API remains experimental

This test would read with a timeout and then send a UDP message, expecting the
message to be received. The receiving port, however, was bound in the child
thread so it could be the case that the timeout and send happens before the
child thread runs. To remedy this we just bind the port before the child thread
runs, moving it into the child later on.

In US english, "that" is used in restrictive clauses in place of
"which", and often affects the meaning of sentences.

In UK english and many dialects, no distinction is
made.

While Rust devs want to avoid unproductive pedanticism, it is worth at
least being uniform in documentation such as:

http://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/index.html

and also in cases where correct usage of US english clarifies the
sentence.
Relax some of the bounds on the decoder methods back to FnMut to help accomodate
some more flavorful variants of decoders which may need to run the closure more
than once when it, for example, attempts to find the first successful enum to
decode.

This a breaking change due to the bounds for the trait switching, and clients
will need to update from `FnOnce` to `FnMut` as well as likely making the local
function binding mutable in order to call the function.

visualization of region inference constraint graph.

Optionally uses environment variables `RUST_REGION_GRAPH=<path_template>`
and `RUST_REGION_GRAPH_NODE=<node-id>` to select which file to output
to and which AST node to print.

Note that in some cases of method AST's, the identification of AST
node is based on the id for the *body* of the method; this is largely
due to having the body node-id already available at the relevant point
in the control-flow of rustc in its current incarnation. Ideally we
would handle identifying AST's by name in addition to node-id,
e.g. the same way that the pretty-printer supports path suffixes as
well as node-ids for identifying subtrees to print.
Includes a fix for a small mistake in `fn insert` which is caught by test_insert for len=15, but not len=7.

Part of rust-lang#18424

This changes the `escape_unicode` method on a `char` to use the new style of
unicode escapes in the language.

Closes rust-lang#19811
Closes rust-lang#19879

some more flavorful variants of decoders which may need to run the closure more
than once when it, for example, attempts to find the first successful enum to
decode.
The fix just checks if the bound is `Copy` and returns an `Err` if so.

Closes: rust-lang#19817

@nikomatsakis r?
Added -Z print-region-graph debugging option; produces graphviz visualization of region inference constraint graph.

Optionally uses environment variables `RUST_REGION_GRAPH=<path_template>` and `RUST_REGION_GRAPH_NODE=<node-id>` to select which file to output to and which AST node to print.
FIxed the spelling of the word "specific".
This commit stabilizes the `mem` and `default` modules of std.
Was testing rustup on a very minimal Debian installation and got errors during the install process (error occurred in `install.sh` of the Rust nightly.)

Noticed that Rustup was downloading the i686 nightly instead of x86-64. Installing `file` fixed the problem, and this patch adds the probe to ensure file is installed before attempting to use it.

There may still be an issue with the i686 installation, I did not investigate further.
Fixes some tuple indexing deprecation warnings. Didn't test. Don't see how it could fail unless I need to modify a makefile somewhere...

r? @alexcrichton
This is to encourage the use of the sugary syntax instead of the `<>` syntax, which will not be usable post-1.0. Rustdoc [still uses the `<>` syntax](rust-lang#19909), so if a rustdoc wizard is looking for something to do, it would be nice to use the parenthetical syntax there as well. (I tried to patch rustdoc as well, but failed…)
…exprbox-an-option

This is to allow us to migrate away from UnUniq in a followup commit,
and thus unify the code paths related to all forms of `box`.
Fix `make TAGS.emacs`.

@nikomatsakis has been complaining to me about this.  (I had not noticed since I drive `ctags` with a separate script.)

(Suitable for a rollup build.)
On the [guide site](http://doc.rust-lang.org/guide.html#if) I was confused when I got to "5 If". It looked like "5 LF" in lowercase.

Changing the if to lowercase solves this problem. I know titles are all capitalized, but I think it makes sense in this case to keep it lowercase, since `if` is a reserved word. I'd also be open to making it ```    `if`   ``` but I'm not sure how that would look on the site.
