f7fb38729e librustc: Improve method autoderef/deref/index behavior more, and enable
`IndexMut` on mutable vectors.

This fixes a bug whereby the mutability fixups for method behavior were
not kicking in after autoderef failed to happen at any level. It also
adds support for `Index` to the fixer-upper.

Closes #12825.

1. The internal layout for traits has changed from (vtable, data) to (data, vtable). If you were relying on this in unsafe transmutes, you might get some very weird and apparently unrelated errors. You should not be doing this! Prefer not to do this at all, but if you must, you should use raw::TraitObject rather than hardcoding rustc's internal representation into your code.

2. The minimal type of reference-to-vec-literals (e.g., `&[1, 2, 3]`) is now a fixed size vec (e.g., `&[int, ..3]`) where it used to be an unsized vec (e.g., `&[int]`). If you want the unszied type, you must explicitly give the type (e.g., `let x: &[_] = &[1, 2, 3]`). Note in particular where multiple blocks must have the same type (e.g., if and else clauses, vec elements), the compiler will not coerce to the unsized type without a hint. E.g., `[&[1], &[1, 2]]` used to be a valid expression of type '[&[int]]'. It no longer type checks since the first element now has type `&[int, ..1]` and the second has type &[int, ..2]` which are incompatible.

3. The type of blocks (including functions) must be coercible to the expected type (used to be a subtype). Mostly this makes things more flexible and not less (in particular, in the case of coercing function bodies to the return type). However, in some rare cases, this is less flexible. TBH, I'm not exactly sure of the exact effects. I think the change causes us to resolve inferred type variables slightly earlier which might make us slightly more restrictive. Possibly it only affects blocks with unreachable code. E.g., `if ... { fail!(); "Hello" }` used to type check, it no longer does. The fix is to add a semicolon after the string.

6f99a27886 librustc: Implement lifetime elision.
This implements RFC 39. Omitted lifetimes in return values will now be
inferred to more useful defaults, and an error is reported if a lifetime
in a return type is omitted and one of the two lifetime elision rules
does not specify what it should be.

This primarily breaks two uncommon code patterns. The first is this:

    unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &Foo {
        ...
    }

This should be changed to:

    unsafe fn get_foo_out_of_thin_air() -> &'static Foo {
        ...
    }

The second pattern that needs to be changed is this:

    enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
        Borrowed(&'a str),
        Owned(String),
    }

    fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed {
        Owned(format!("hello world"))
    }

Change code like this to:

    enum MaybeBorrowed<'a> {
        Borrowed(&'a str),
        Owned(String),
    }

    fn foo() -> MaybeBorrowed<'static> {
        Owned(format!("hello world"))
    }

Closes #15552.

9e3d0b002a librustc: Remove the fallback to int from typechecking.
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.
