This removes some of the easier instances of mutable fields where the explicit self can just become `&mut self` along with removing some unsafe blocks which aren't necessary any more now that purity is gone.
Most of #4568 is done, except for [one case](https://github.com/alexcrichton/rust/blob/less-mut-fields/src/libcore/vec.rs#L1754) where it looks like it has to do with it being a `const` vector. Removing the unsafe block yields:
```
/Users/alex/code/rust2/src/libcore/vec.rs:1755:12: 1755:16 error: illegal borrow unless pure: creating immutable alias to const vec content
/Users/alex/code/rust2/src/libcore/vec.rs:1755 for self.each |e| {
^~~~
/Users/alex/code/rust2/src/libcore/vec.rs:1757:8: 1757:9 note: impure due to access to impure function
/Users/alex/code/rust2/src/libcore/vec.rs:1757 }

error: aborting due to previous error
```
I also didn't delve too much into removing mutable fields with `Cell` or `transmute` and friends.
Changes the parser to parse all streams into token-trees before hitting the parser proper, in preparation for hygiene. As an added bonus, it appears to speed up the parser (albeit by a totally imperceptible 1%).
Also, many comments in the parser.
Also, field renaming in token-trees (readme->forest, cur->stack).
Adds an assert_eq! macro that asserts that its two arguments are equal. Error messages can therefore be somewhat more informative than a simple assert, because the error message includes "expected" and "given" values.
For bootstrapping purposes, this commit does not remove all uses of
the keyword "pure" -- doing so would cause the compiler to no longer
bootstrap due to some syntax extensions ("deriving" in particular).
Instead, it makes the compiler ignore "pure". Post-snapshot, we can
remove "pure" from the language.
There are quite a few (~100) borrow check errors that were essentially
all the result of mutable fields or partial borrows of `@mut`. Per
discussions with Niko I think we want to allow partial borrows of
`@mut` but detect obvious footguns. We should also improve the error
message when `@mut` is erroneously reborrowed.
Macro scope is now delimited by function, block, and module boundaries,
except for modules that are marked with #[macro_escape], which allows
macros to escape.
This is a natural extension of #4887, and handles the following three cases:
~~~~
a line with only /s
////////////////////////////////////////////
a line with only /s followed by whitespace
////////////////////////////////////////////
a block comment with only *s between two /s
/********************************/

It looks to me like the string_reader and tt_reader structs are
GC pointers only because they predate the modern borrow system.
This commit leaves the type names string_reader and tt_reader alone
(they still refer to GC-ed pointers), but internally the functions
now use borrowed pointers to refer to these structures. My guess
would be that it's possible to move this change outward and not
use the GCed pointers at all, but that change looks like it could be
a larger one. Actually, I'm delighted at how quick this change was.

- Moved ToStr implementation of unsigned integers to uint-template.rs.
- Marked the `str()` function as deprecated.
- Forwarded all conversion functions to `core::num::to_str_common()`
and `core::num::from_str_common()`.
- Fixed most places in the codebase where `to_str()` is being used.
- Added uint-template to_str and from_str overflow tests.
"Dual impls" are impls that are both type implementations and trait
implementations. They can lead to ambiguity and so this patch removes them
from the language.
This also enforces coherence rules. Without this patch, records can implement
traits not defined in the current crate. This patch fixes this, and updates
all of rustc to adhere to the new enforcement. Most of this patch is fixing
rustc to obey the coherence rules, which involves converting a bunch of records
to structs.
