Nicholas Nethercote abe45a9ffa Rename rustc_serialize::opaque::Encoder as MemEncoder.
This avoids the name clash with `rustc_serialize::Encoder` (a trait),
and allows lots qualifiers to be removed and imports to be simplified
(e.g. fewer `as` imports).

(This was previously merged as commit 5 in #94732 and then was reverted
in #97905 because of a perf regression caused by commit 4 in #94732.)

The rustc_ast crate contains those things concerned purely with syntax that is, the AST ("abstract syntax tree"), along with some definitions for tokens and token streams, data structures/traits for mutating ASTs, and shared definitions for other AST-related parts of the compiler (like the lexer and macro-expansion).

For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
