std/rustc/rustpkg/syntax: Support the `extern mod = ...` form

This commit allows you to write:

 extern mod x = "a/b/c";

which means rustc will search in the RUST_PATH for a package with
ID a/b/c, and bind it to the name `x` if it's found.

Incidentally, move get_relative_to from back::rpath into std::path
