Implement RFC #43

Remove the ability of the borrow checker to determine that repeated
dereferences of a Box<T> refer to the same memory object. This will
usually require one of two workarounds:

1) The interior of a Box<T> will sometimes need to be moved / borrowed
into a temporary before moving / borrowing individual derived paths.

2) A `ref x` pattern will have to be replaced with a `box ref x`
pattern.

Fixes #16094.
