Closes #25459

This commit is an implementation of [RFC 1040][rfc] which is a redesign of the
currently-unstable `Duration` type. The API of the type has been scaled back to
be more conservative and it also no longer supports negative durations.

[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1040-duration-reform.md

The inner `duration` module of the `time` module has now been hidden (as
`Duration` is reexported) and the feature name for this type has changed from
`std_misc` to `duration`. All APIs accepting durations have also been audited to
take a more flavorful feature name instead of `std_misc`.

Closes #24874

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.

E.g. if `foo.rs` looks like

    #![feature(test)]
    extern crate test;

    #[bench]
    fn bar(b: &mut test::Bencher) {
        b.iter(|| {
            1
        })
    }

    #[test]
    fn baz() {}

    #[bench]
    fn qux(b: &mut test::Bencher) {
        b.iter(|| {
            panic!()
        })
    }

Then

    $ rustc --test foo.rs
    $ ./foo

    running 3 tests
    test baz ... ok
    test qux ... FAILED
    test bar ... ok

    failures:

    ---- qux stdout ----
    	thread 'qux' panicked at 'explicit panic', bench.rs:17

    failures:
        qux

    test result: FAILED. 2 passed; 1 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured

    $ ./foo --bench ba

    running 2 tests
    test baz ... ignored
    test bar ... bench:        97 ns/iter (+/- 74)

    test result: ok. 0 passed; 0 failed; 1 ignored; 1 measured

In particular, the two benchmark are being run as tests in the default
mode.

This helps for the main distribution, since benchmarks are only run with
`PLEASE_BENCH=1`, which is rarely set (and never set on the test bots),
and helps for code-coverage tools: benchmarks are run and so don't count
as dead code.

Fixes #15842.

This commit removes all the old casting/generic traits from `std::num` that are
no longer in use by the standard library. This additionally removes the old
`strconv` module which has not seen much use in quite a long time. All generic
functionality has been supplanted with traits in the `num` crate and the
`strconv` module is supplanted with the [rust-strconv crate][rust-strconv].

This is a breaking change due to the removal of these deprecated crates, and the
alternative crates are listed above.

[breaking-change]

`s/([^\(\s]+\.)len\(\) [(?:!=)>] 0/!$1is_empty()/g`

for `Box<FnBox()>`. I found the alias was still handy because it is
shorter than the fully written type.

This is a [breaking-change]: convert code using `Invoke` to use `FnBox`,
which is usually pretty straight-forward. Code using thunk mostly works
if you change `Thunk::new => Box::new` and `foo.invoke(arg)` to
`foo(arg)`.

This commit cleans out a large amount of deprecated APIs from the standard
library and some of the facade crates as well, updating all users in the
compiler and in tests as it goes along.

* Marks `#[stable]` the contents of the `std::convert` module.

* Added methods `PathBuf::as_path`, `OsString::as_os_str`,
  `String::as_str`, `Vec::{as_slice, as_mut_slice}`.

* Deprecates `OsStr::from_str` in favor of a new, stable, and more
  general `OsStr::new`.

* Adds unstable methods `OsString::from_bytes` and `OsStr::{to_bytes,
  to_cstring}` for ergonomic FFI usage.

[breaking-change]

Now that support has been removed, all lingering use cases are renamed.

This permits all coercions to be performed in casts, but adds lints to warn in those cases.

Part of this patch moves cast checking to a later stage of type checking. We acquire obligations to check casts as part of type checking where we previously checked them. Once we have type checked a function or module, then we check any cast obligations which have been acquired. That means we have more type information available to check casts (this was crucial to making coercions work properly in place of some casts), but it means that casts cannot feed input into type inference.

[breaking change]

* Adds two new lints for trivial casts and trivial numeric casts, these are warn by default, but can cause errors if you build with warnings as errors. Previously, trivial numeric casts and casts to trait objects were allowed.
* The unused casts lint has gone.
* Interactions between casting and type inference have changed in subtle ways. Two ways this might manifest are:
- You may need to 'direct' casts more with extra type information, for example, in some cases where `foo as _ as T` succeeded, you may now need to specify the type for `_`
- Casts do not influence inference of integer types. E.g., the following used to type check:

```
let x = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```

Because the cast would inform inference that `x` must have type `u32`. This no longer applies and the compiler will fallback to `i32` for `x` and thus there will be a type error in the cast. The solution is to add more type information:

```
let x: u32 = 42;
let y = &x as *const u32;
```

This commit:

* Introduces `std::convert`, providing an implementation of
RFC 529.

* Deprecates the `AsPath`, `AsOsStr`, and `IntoBytes` traits, all
in favor of the corresponding generic conversion traits.

  Consequently, various IO APIs now take `AsRef<Path>` rather than
`AsPath`, and so on. Since the types provided by `std` implement both
traits, this should cause relatively little breakage.

* Deprecates many `from_foo` constructors in favor of `from`.

* Changes `PathBuf::new` to take no argument (creating an empty buffer,
  as per convention). The previous behavior is now available as
  `PathBuf::from`.

* De-stabilizes `IntoCow`. It's not clear whether we need this separate trait.

The [associated RFC][rfc] for possibly splitting out `flush` has been closed and
as a result there are no more blockers for stabilizing this method, so this
commit marks the method as such.

[rfc]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/950

This reverts commit bce7a6f4.

This commit stabilizes essentially all of the new `std::path` API. The
API itself is changed in a couple of ways (which brings it in closer
alignment with the RFC):

* `.` components are now normalized away, unless they appear at the
  start of a path. This in turn effects the semantics of e.g. asking for
  the file name of `foo/` or `foo/.`, both of which yield `Some("foo")`
  now. This semantics is what the original RFC specified, and is also
  desirable given early experience rolling out the new API.

* The `parent` function now succeeds if, and only if, the path has at
  least one non-root/prefix component. This change affects `pop` as
  well.

* The `Prefix` component now involves a separate `PrefixComponent`
  struct, to better allow for keeping both parsed and unparsed prefix data.

In addition, the `old_path` module is now deprecated.

Closes #23264

[breaking-change]

Right now the rust upgrade in cargo is blocked on fixing this overflow. If a
this benchmark is run it will trigger an overflow error today:

    #[bench]
    fn foo(b: &mut test::Bencher) {}

This commit adds a check on each iteration of the loop that the maximum
multiplier (10) doesn't overflow, and if it does just return the results so far.

This commit performs a stabilization pass over the `std::fs` module now that
it's had some time to bake. The change was largely just adding `#[stable]` tags,
but there are a few APIs that remain `#[unstable]`.

The following apis are now marked `#[stable]`:

* `std::fs` (the name)
* `File`
* `Metadata`
* `ReadDir`
* `DirEntry`
* `OpenOptions`
* `Permissions`
* `File::{open, create}`
* `File::{sync_all, sync_data}`
* `File::set_len`
* `File::metadata`
* Trait implementations for `File` and `&File`
* `OpenOptions::new`
* `OpenOptions::{read, write, append, truncate, create}`
* `OpenOptions::open` - this function was modified, however, to not attempt to
  reject cross-platform openings of directories. This means that some platforms
  will succeed in opening a directory and others will fail.
* `Metadata::{is_dir, is_file, len, permissions}`
* `Permissions::{readonly, set_readonly}`
* `Iterator for ReadDir`
* `DirEntry::path`
* `remove_file` - like with `OpenOptions::open`, the extra windows code to
  remove a readonly file has been removed. This means that removing a readonly
  file will succeed on some platforms but fail on others.
* `metadata`
* `rename`
* `copy`
* `hard_link`
* `soft_link`
* `read_link`
* `create_dir`
* `create_dir_all`
* `remove_dir`
* `remove_dir_all`
* `read_dir`

The following apis remain `#[unstable]`.

* `WalkDir` and `walk` - there are many methods by which a directory walk can be
  constructed, and it's unclear whether the current semantics are the right
  ones. For example symlinks are not handled super well currently. This is now
  behind a new `fs_walk` feature.
* `File::path` - this is an extra abstraction which the standard library
  provides on top of what the system offers and it's unclear whether we should
  be doing so. This is now behind a new `file_path` feature.
* `Metadata::{accessed, modified}` - we do not currently have a good
  abstraction for a moment in time which is what these APIs should likely be
  returning, so these remain `#[unstable]` for now. These are now behind a new
  `fs_time` feature
* `set_file_times` - like with `Metadata::accessed`, we do not currently have
  the appropriate abstraction for the arguments here so this API remains
  unstable behind the `fs_time` feature gate.
* `PathExt` - the precise set of methods on this trait may change over time and
  some methods may be removed. This API remains unstable behind the `path_ext`
  feature gate.
* `set_permissions` - we may wish to expose a more granular ability to set the
  permissions on a file instead of just a blanket "set all permissions" method.
  This function remains behind the `fs` feature.

The following apis are now `#[deprecated]`

* The `TempDir` type is now entirely deprecated and is [located on
  crates.io][tempdir] as the `tempdir` crate with [its source][github] at
  rust-lang/tempdir.

The stability of some of these APIs has been questioned over the past few weeks
in using these APIs, and it is intentional that the majority of APIs here are
marked `#[stable]`. The `std::fs` module has a lot of room to grow and the
material is [being tracked in a RFC issue][rfc-issue].

[rfc-issue]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/939

[breaking-change]

This commit deprecates the majority of std::old_io::fs in favor of std::fs and
its new functionality. Some functions remain non-deprecated but are now behind a
feature gate called `old_fs`. These functions will be deprecated once
suitable replacements have been implemented.

The compiler has been migrated to new `std::fs` and `std::path` APIs where
appropriate as part of this change.

Now that the `std::env` module has had some time to bake this commit marks most
of its APIs as `#[stable]`. Some notable APIs that are **not** stable (and still
use the same `env` feature gate) are:

* `{set,get}_exit_status` - there are still questions about whether this is the
  right interface for setting/getting the exit status of a process.
* `page_size` - this may change location in the future or perhaps name as well.

This also effectively closes #22122 as the variants of `VarError` are
`#[stable]` now. (this is done intentionally)
