Currently if a print happens while a thread is being torn down it may cause a
panic if the LOCAL_STDOUT TLS slot has been destroyed by that point. This adds a
guard to check and prints to the process stdout if that's the case (as we do for
if the slot is already borrowed).

The various `stdfoo_raw` methods in std::io now return `io::Result`s,
since they may not exist on Windows. They will always return `Ok` on
Unix-like platforms.

An automated script was run against the `.rs` and `.md` files,
subsituting every occurrence of `task` with `thread`. In the `.rs`
files, only the texts in the comment blocks were affected.
Changes the style guidelines regarding unit tests to recommend using a
sub-module named "tests" instead of "test" for unit tests as "test"
might clash with imports of libtest.
write_fmt calls write for each formatted field. The default implementation of write_fmt is used,
which will call write on not-yet-locked stdout (and write locking after), therefore making print!
in multithreaded environment still interleave contents of two separate prints.
This patch implements reentrant mutexes, changes stdio handles to use these mutexes and overrides
write_fmt to lock the stdio handle for the whole duration of the call.
Previously a panic was generated for recursive prints due to a double-borrow of
a `RefCell`. This was solved by the second borrow's output being directed
towards the global stdout instead of the per-thread stdout (still experimental
functionality).
After this functionality was altered, however, recursive prints still deadlocked
due to the overridden `write_fmt` method which locked itself first and then
wrote all the data. This was fixed by removing the override of the `write_fmt`
method. This means that unlocked usage of `write!` on a `Stdout`/`Stderr` may be
slower due to acquiring more locks, but it's easy to make more performant with a
call to `.lock()`.

This still needs to somehow figure out how to avoid unstable warnings arising from the use of unstable functions. I tried to use `#[allow_internal_unstable]` but it still spits out warnings as far as I can see. @huonw (I think you implemented it) does `#[allow_internal_unstable]` not work for some reason or am I using it incorrectly?
std::io does not currently expose the stdin_raw, stdout_raw, or
stderr_raw functions. According to the current plans for stdio (see RFC
#517), raw access will likely be provided using the platform-specific
std::os::{unix,windows} modules. At the moment we don't expose any way
to do this. As such, delete all mention of the _raw functions from the
stdin/stdout/stderr function documentation.
While we're at it, remove a few `pub`s from items that aren't exposed.
This is done just to lessen the confusion experienced by anyone who
looks at the source in an attempt to find the _raw functions.
The new `std::io` module has had some time to bake now, and this commit
stabilizes its functionality. There are still portions of the module which
remain unstable, and below contains a summart of the actions taken.
This commit also deprecates the entire contents of the `old_io` module in a
blanket fashion. All APIs should now have a reasonable replacement in the
new I/O modules.
Stable APIs:
* `std::io` (the name)
* `std::io::prelude` (the name)
* `Read`
* `Read::read`
* `Read::{read_to_end, read_to_string}` after being modified to return a `usize`
for the number of bytes read.
* `Write`
* `Write::write`
* `Write::{write_all, write_fmt}`
* `BufRead`
* `BufRead::{fill_buf, consume}`
* `BufRead::{read_line, read_until}` after being modified to return a `usize`
for the number of bytes read.
* `BufReader`
* `BufReader::{new, with_capacity}`
* `BufReader::{get_ref, get_mut, into_inner}`
* `{Read,BufRead} for BufReader`
* `BufWriter`
* `BufWriter::{new, with_capacity}`
* `BufWriter::{get_ref, get_mut, into_inner}`
* `Write for BufWriter`
* `IntoInnerError`
* `IntoInnerError::{error, into_inner}`
* `{Error,Display} for IntoInnerError`
* `LineWriter`
* `LineWriter::{new, with_capacity}` - `with_capacity` was added
* `LineWriter::{get_ref, get_mut, into_inner}` - `get_mut` was added)
* `Write for LineWriter`
* `BufStream`
* `BufStream::{new, with_capacities}`
* `BufStream::{get_ref, get_mut, into_inner}`
* `{BufRead,Read,Write} for BufStream`
* `stdin`
* `Stdin`
* `Stdin::lock`
* `Stdin::read_line` - added method
* `StdinLock`
* `Read for Stdin`
* `{Read,BufRead} for StdinLock`
* `stdout`
* `Stdout`
* `Stdout::lock`
* `StdoutLock`
* `Write for Stdout`
* `Write for StdoutLock`
* `stderr`
* `Stderr`
* `Stderr::lock`
* `StderrLock`
* `Write for Stderr`
* `Write for StderrLock`
* `io::Result`
* `io::Error`
* `io::Error::last_os_error`
* `{Display, Error} for Error`
Unstable APIs:
(reasons can be found in the commit itself)
* `Write::flush`
* `Seek`
* `ErrorKind`
* `Error::new`
* `Error::from_os_error`
* `Error::kind`
Deprecated APIs
* `Error::description` - available via the `Error` trait
* `Error::detail` - available via the `Display` implementation
* `thread::Builder::{stdout, stderr}`
Changes in functionality:
* `old_io::stdio::set_stderr` is now a noop as the infrastructure for printing
backtraces has migrated to `std::io`.
* The `ReadExt`, `WriteExt`, and `BufReadExt` extension traits were all removed
by folding functionality into the corresponding trait.

Being a person who somehow has taken a liking to premature optimisation, my knee-jerk reaction to
locking in std handles was preamble resembling following snippet:
let stdout = stdout();
let lstdout = stdout.lock();
let stdin = stdin();
let lstdin = stdin.lock();
and then reading from the locked handle like this:
let mut letter = [0; 1];
lstdin.read(&mut letter).unwrap();
As it is now this code will deadlock because the `read` method attempts to lock stdout as well!
This is an implementation of RFC 899 and adds stdio functionality to the new
`std::io` module. Details of the API can be found on the RFC, but from a high
level:
* `io::{stdin, stdout, stderr}` constructors are now available. There are also
`*_raw` variants for unbuffered and unlocked access.
* All handles are globally shared (excluding raw variants).
* The stderr handle is no longer buffered.
* All handles can be explicitly locked (excluding the raw variants).
The `print!` and `println!` machinery has not yet been hooked up to these
streams just yet. The `std::fmt::output` module has also not yet been
implemented as part of this commit.
In preparation for the I/O rejuvination of the standard library, this commit
renames the current `io` module to `old_io` in order to make room for the new
I/O modules. It is expected that the I/O RFCs will land incrementally over time
instead of all at once, and this provides a fresh clean path for new modules to
enter into as well as guaranteeing that all old infrastructure will remain in
place for some time.
As each `old_io` module is replaced it will be deprecated in-place for new
structures in `std::{io, fs, net}` (as appropriate).
This commit does *not* leave a reexport of `old_io as io` as the deprecation
lint does not currently warn on this form of use. This is quite a large breaking
change for all imports in existing code, but all functionality is retained
precisely as-is and path statements simply need to be renamed from `io` to
`old_io`.

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.

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.

This pass performs a second pass of stabilization through the `std::sync`
module, avoiding modules/types that are being handled in other PRs (e.g.
mutexes, rwlocks, condvars, and channels).
The following items are now stable
* `sync::atomic`
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_BOOL_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_BOOL`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_INT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_INT`)
* `sync::atomic::ATOMIC_UINT_INIT` (was `INIT_ATOMIC_UINT`)
* `sync::Once`
* `sync::ONCE_INIT`
* `sync::Once::call_once` (was `doit`)
* C == `pthread_once(..)`
* Boost == `call_once(..)`
* Windows == `InitOnceExecuteOnce`
* `sync::Barrier`
* `sync::Barrier::new`
* `sync::Barrier::wait` (now returns a `bool`)
* `sync::Semaphore::new`
* `sync::Semaphore::acquire`
* `sync::Semaphore::release`
The following items remain unstable
* `sync::SemaphoreGuard`
* `sync::Semaphore::access` - it's unclear how this relates to the poisoning
story of mutexes.
* `sync::TaskPool` - the semantics of a failing task and whether a thread is
re-attached to a thread pool are somewhat unclear, and the
utility of this type in `sync` is question with respect to
the jobs of other primitives. This type will likely become
stable or move out of the standard library over time.
* `sync::Future` - futures as-is have yet to be deeply re-evaluated with the
recent core changes to Rust's synchronization story, and will
likely become stable in the future but are unstable until
that time comes.

The new semantics of this function are that the callbacks are run when the *main
thread* exits, not when all threads have exited. This implies that other threads
may still be running when the `at_exit` callbacks are invoked and users need to
be prepared for this situation.
Users in the standard library have been audited in accordance to these new rules
as well.
