for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.
[breaking-change]
This updates a number of ignore-test tests, and removes a few completely
outdated tests due to the feature being tested no longer being supported.
This brings a number of bench/shootout tests up to date so they're compiling
again. I make no claims to the performance of these benchmarks, it's just nice
to not have bitrotted code.
