for `~str`/`~[]`.
Note that `~self` still remains, since I forgot to add support for
`Box<self>` before the snapshot.
How to update your code:
* Instead of `~EXPR`, you should write `box EXPR`.
* Instead of `~TYPE`, you should write `Box<Type>`.
* Instead of `~PATTERN`, you should write `box PATTERN`.

The underlying I/O objects implement a good deal of various options here and
there for tuning network sockets and how they perform. Most of this is a relic
of "whatever libuv provides", but these options are genuinely useful.
It is unclear at this time whether these options should be well supported or
not, or whether they have correct names or not. For now, I believe it's better
to expose the functionality than to not, but all new methods are added with
an #[experimental] annotation.

This adds support for connecting to a unix socket with a timeout (a named pipe
on windows), and accepting a connection with a timeout. The goal is to bring
unix pipes/named sockets back in line with TCP support for timeouts.
Similarly to the TCP sockets, all methods are marked #[experimental] due to
uncertainty about the type of the timeout argument.
This internally involved a good bit of refactoring to share as much code as
possible between TCP servers and pipe servers, but the core implementation did
not change drastically as part of this commit.

This adds experimental support for timeouts when accepting sockets through
`TcpAcceptor::accept`. This does not add a separate `accept_timeout` function,
but rather it adds a `set_timeout` function instead. This second function is
intended to be used as a hard deadline after which all accepts will never block
and fail immediately.
This idea was derived from Go's SetDeadline() methods. We do not currently have
a robust time abstraction in the standard library, so I opted to have the
argument be a relative time in millseconds into the future. I believe a more
appropriate argument type is an absolute time, but this concept does not exist
yet (this is also why the function is marked #[experimental]).
The native support is built on select(), similarly to connect_timeout(), and the
green support is based on channel select and a timer.

This alters the borrow checker's requirements on invoking closures from
requiring an immutable borrow to requiring a unique immutable borrow. This means
that it is illegal to invoke a closure through a `&` pointer because there is no
guarantee that is not aliased. This does not mean that a closure is required to
be in a mutable location, but rather a location which can be proven to be
unique (often through a mutable pointer).
For example, the following code is unsound and is no longer allowed:
type Fn<'a> = ||:'a;
fn call(f: |Fn|) {
f(|| {
f(|| {})
});
}
fn main() {
call(|a| {
a();
});
}
There is no replacement for this pattern. For all closures which are stored in
structures, it was previously allowed to invoke the closure through `&self` but
it now requires invocation through `&mut self`.
The standard library has a good number of violations of this new rule, but the
fixes will be separated into multiple breaking change commits.
Closes #12224

This fixes various issues throughout the standard distribution and tests.

This prevents unix sockets from remaining on the system all over the place, and
more closely mirrors the behavior of libuv and windows pipes.

This adds a `TcpStream::connect_timeout` function in order to assist opening
connections with a timeout (cc #13523). There isn't really much design space for
this specific operation (unlike timing out normal blocking reads/writes), so I
am fairly confident that this is the correct interface for this function.
The function is marked #[experimental] because it takes a u64 timeout argument,
and the u64 type is likely to change in the future.

There are currently a number of return values from the std::comm methods, not
all of which are necessarily completely expressive:
* `Sender::try_send(t: T) -> bool`
This method currently doesn't transmit back the data `t` if the send fails
due to the other end having disconnected. Additionally, this shares the name
of the synchronous try_send method, but it differs in semantics in that it
only has one failure case, not two (the buffer can never be full).
* `SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> TrySendResult<T>`
This method accurately conveys all possible information, but it uses a
custom type to the std::comm module with no convenience methods on it.
Additionally, if you want to inspect the result you're forced to import
something from `std::comm`.
* `SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Option<T>`
This method uses Some(T) as an "error value" and None as a "success value",
but almost all other uses of Option<T> have Some/None the other way
* `Receiver::try_recv(t: T) -> TryRecvResult<T>`
Similarly to the synchronous try_send, this custom return type is lacking in
terms of usability (no convenience methods).
With this number of drawbacks in mind, I believed it was time to re-work the
return types of these methods. The new API for the comm module is:
Sender::send(t: T) -> ()
Sender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T>
SyncSender::send(t: T) -> ()
SyncSender::send_opt(t: T) -> Result<(), T>
SyncSender::try_send(t: T) -> Result<(), TrySendError<T>>
Receiver::recv() -> T
Receiver::recv_opt() -> Result<T, ()>
Receiver::try_recv() -> Result<T, TryRecvError>
The notable changes made are:
* Sender::try_send => Sender::send_opt. This renaming brings the semantics in
line with the SyncSender::send_opt method. An asychronous send only has one
failure case, unlike the synchronous try_send method which has two failure
cases (full/disconnected).
* Sender::send_opt returns the data back to the caller if the send is guaranteed
to fail. This method previously returned `bool`, but then it was unable to
retrieve the data if the data was guaranteed to fail to send. There is still a
race such that when `Ok(())` is returned the data could still fail to be
received, but that's inherent to an asynchronous channel.
* Result is now the basis of all return values. This not only adds lots of
convenience methods to all return values for free, but it also means that you
can inspect the return values with no extra imports (Ok/Err are in the
prelude). Additionally, it's now self documenting when something failed or not
because the return value has "Err" in the name.
Things I'm a little uneasy about:
* The methods send_opt and recv_opt are not returning options, but rather
results. I felt more strongly that Option was the wrong return type than the
_opt prefix was wrong, and I coudn't think of a much better name for these
methods. One possible way to think about them is to read the _opt suffix as
"optionally".
* Result<T, ()> is often better expressed as Option<T>. This is only applicable
to the recv_opt() method, but I thought it would be more consistent for
everything to return Result rather than one method returning an Option.
Despite my two reasons to feel uneasy, I feel much better about the consistency
in return values at this point, and I think the only real open question is if
there's a better suffix for {send,recv}_opt.

Someone reading the docs won't know what the types of various things
are, so this adds them in a few meaningful places to help with
comprehension.

This is something that is plausibly useful, and is provided by libuv. This is
not currently surfaced as part of the `TcpStream` type, but it may possibly
appear in the future. For now only the raw functionality is provided through the
Rtio objects.

These two tests are notoriously flaky on the windows bots right now, so I'm
ignoring them until I can investigate them some more. The truncate_works test
has been flaky for quite some time, but it has gotten much worse recently. The
test_exists test has been flaky since the recent std::run rewrite landed.
Finally, the "unix pipe" test failure is a recent discovery on the try bots. I
haven't seen this failing much, but better safe than sorry!

This commit changes the ToStr trait to:
impl<T: fmt::Show> ToStr for T {
fn to_str(&self) -> ~str { format!("{}", *self) }
}
The ToStr trait has been on the chopping block for quite awhile now, and this is
the final nail in its coffin. The trait and the corresponding method are not
being removed as part of this commit, but rather any implementations of the
`ToStr` trait are being forbidden because of the generic impl. The new way to
get the `to_str()` method to work is to implement `fmt::Show`.
Formatting into a `&mut Writer` (as `format!` does) is much more efficient than
`ToStr` when building up large strings. The `ToStr` trait forces many
intermediate allocations to be made while the `fmt::Show` trait allows
incremental buildup in the same heap allocated buffer. Additionally, the
`fmt::Show` trait is much more extensible in terms of interoperation with other
`Writer` instances and in more situations. By design the `ToStr` trait requires
at least one allocation whereas the `fmt::Show` trait does not require any
allocations.

I have a hunch this just deadlocked the windows bots. Due to UDP being a lossy
protocol, I don't think we can guarantee that the server can receive both
packets, so just listen for one of them.

This is part of the overall strategy I would like to take when approaching
issue #11165. The only two I/O objects that reasonably want to be "split" are
the network stream objects. Everything else can be "split" by just creating
another version.
The initial idea I had was the literally split the object into a reader and a
writer half, but that would just introduce lots of clutter with extra interfaces
that were a little unnnecssary, or it would return a ~Reader and a ~Writer which
means you couldn't access things like the remote peer name or local socket name.
The solution I found to be nicer was to just clone the stream itself. The clone
is just a clone of the handle, nothing fancy going on at the kernel level.
Conceptually I found this very easy to wrap my head around (everything else
supports clone()), and it solved the "split" problem at the same time.
The cloning support is pretty specific per platform/lib combination:
* native/win32 - uses some specific WSA apis to clone the SOCKET handle
* native/unix - uses dup() to get another file descriptor
* green/all - This is where things get interesting. When we support full clones
of a handle, this implies that we're allowing simultaneous writes
and reads to happen. It turns out that libuv doesn't support two
simultaneous reads or writes of the same object. It does support
*one* read and *one* write at the same time, however. Some extra
infrastructure was added to just block concurrent writers/readers
until the previous read/write operation was completed.
I've added tests to the tcp/unix modules to make sure that this functionality is
supported everywhere.
