Tyson Nottingham 849dc1a20c Indicate both start and end of pass RSS in time-passes output
Previously, only the end of pass RSS was indicated. This could easily
lead one to believe that the change in RSS from one pass to the next was
attributable to the second pass, when in fact it occurred between the
end of the first pass and the start of the second.

Also, improve alignment of columns.

The driver crate is effectively the "main" function for the rust compiler. It orchestrates the compilation process and "knits together" the code from the other crates within rustc. This crate itself does not contain any of the "main logic" of the compiler (though it does have some code related to pretty printing or other minor compiler options).

For more information about how the driver works, see the rustc dev guide.
