Task local data management

Allows storing boxes with arbitrary types inside, to be accessed anywhere within
a task, keyed by a pointer to a global finaliser function. Useful for dynamic
variables, singletons, and interfacing with foreign code with bad callback
interfaces.

To use, declare a monomorphic (no type parameters) global function at the type
to store, and use it as the 'key' when accessing.

~~~{.rust}
use std::local_data;

fn key_int(_: @int) {}
fn key_vector(_: @~[int]) {}

unsafe {
    local_data::set(key_int, @3);
    assert!(local_data::get(key_int) == Some(@3));

    local_data::set(key_vector, @~[3]);
    assert!(local_data::get(key_vector).unwrap()[0] == 3);
}
~~~

Casting 'Arcane Sight' reveals an overwhelming aura of Transmutation
magic.

 * instantiations of a single polymorphic function to index data of different
 * types; arbitrary type coercion is possible this way.
 *
 * One other exception is that this global state can be used in a destructor
 * context to create a circular @-box reference, which will crash during task
 * failure (see issue #3039).
