The set of types which can have an inherent impl changed slightly and rustdoc
just needed to catch up to understand what it means to see a `impl str`!
Closes#23511
All methods listed in "Trait Implementations" now hyperlink to the source trait
instead of themselves, allowing easy browsing of the documentation of a trait
method.
Closes#17476
This ensures that all external traits are run through the same filters that the
rest of the AST goes through, stripping hidden function as necessary.
Closes#13698
This isn't really possible to test in an automatic way, since the only traits
you can negative impl are `Send` and `Sync`, and the implementors page for
those only exists in libstd.

Previously, impls for `[T; n]` were collected in the same place as impls for `[T]` and `&[T]`. This splits them out into their own primitive page in both core and std.
This is a [breaking-change]. When indexing a generic map (hashmap, etc) using the `[]` operator, it is now necessary to borrow explicitly, so change `map[key]` to `map[&key]` (consistent with the `get` routine). However, indexing of string-valued maps with constant strings can now be written `map["abc"]`.

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.

Impls on `clean::Type::FixedVector` are now collected in the array
primitive page instead of the slice primitive page.
Also add a primitive docs for arrays to `std`.
* rustdoc was doubly appending the file name to the path of where to
generate the source files, meanwhile, the [src] hyperlinks were not
* Added a flag to rustdoc::html::render::clean_srcpath to ignore the
last path component, i.e. the file name itself to prevent the issue
* This also avoids creating directories with the same name as source
files, and it makes sure the link to `main.css` is correct as well.
* Added regression tests to ensure the rustdoc heirarchy of rendered
source files remains consistent
Fixes#23192
Previously it would fail on a trivial case like
/// Summary line

Compliant markdown preprocessor would render that as two separate paragraphs, but our summary line
extractor interprets both lines as the same paragraph and includes both into the short summary resulting in
This adds search by type (for functions/methods) support to Rustdoc. Target issue is at https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/658.
I've described my approach here: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/658#issuecomment-76484200. I'll copy the text in here as well:

Hi, it took me longer than I wished, but I have implemented this in a not-too-complex way that I think can be extended to support more complex features (like the ones mentioned [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/12866#issuecomment-66945317)).
The idea is to generate a JSON representation of the types of methods/functions in the existing index, and then make the JS understand when it should look by type (and not by name).
I tried to come up with a JSON representation that can be extended to support generics, bounds, ref/mut annotations and so on. Here are a few samples:
Function:
```rust
fn to_uppercase(c: char) -> char
```
```json
{
"inputs": [
{"name": "char"}
],
"output": {
"name": "char",
}
}
```
Method (implemented or defined in trait):
```rust
// in struct Vec
// self is considered an argument as well
fn capacity(&self) -> usize
```
```json
{
"inputs": [
{"name": "vec"}
],
"output": {
"name": "usize"
}
}
```
This simple format can be extended by adding more fields, like `generic: bool`, a `bounds` mapping and so on.
I have a working implementation in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/compare/master...mihneadb:rustdoc-search-by-type. You can check out a live demo [here](http://data.mihneadb.net/doc/std/index.html?search=charext%20-%3E%20char).
The feature list is not that long:
- search by types (you *can* use generics as well, as long as you use the exact name - e.g. [`vec,t -> `](http://data.mihneadb.net/doc/std/index.html?search=vec%2C%20t%20-%3E))
- order of arguments does not matter
- `self` is took into account as well (e.g. search for `vec -> usize`)
- does not use "complex" annotations (e.g. you don't search for `&char -> char` but for `char -> char`)
My goal is to get a working, minimal "base" merged so that others can build upon it. How should I proceed? Do I open a PR (badly in need of code review since this is my first non "hello world"-ish rust code)?

We require the *deferred* loading, not just an opportunistic
asynchronous loading. I think `<script defer>` is safe to use,
according to <http://caniuse.com/#feat=script-defer>.
It had been a source of huge bloat in rustdoc outputs. Of course, we can simply disable compiler docs (as `rustc` generates over 90M of HTML) but this approach fares better even after such decision.
Each directory now has `sidebar-items.js`, which immediately calls `initSidebarItems` with a JSON sidebar data. This file is shared throughout every item in the sidebar. The current item is highlighted via a separate JS snippet (`window.sidebarCurrent`). The JS file is designed to be loaded asynchronously, as the sidebar is rendered before the content and slow sidebar loading blocks the entire rendering. For the minimal accessibility without JS, links to the parent items are left in HTML.
In the future, it might also be possible to integrate crates data with the same fashion: `sidebar-items.js` at the root path will do that. (Currently rustdoc skips writing JS in that case.)
This has a huge impact on the size of rustdoc outputs. Originally it was 326MB uncompressed (37.7MB gzipped, 6.1MB xz compressed); it is 169MB uncompressed (11.9MB gzipped, 5.9MB xz compressed) now. The sidebar JS only takes 10MB uncompressed & 0.3MB gzipped.
The two main sub-modules, `c_str` and `os_str`, have now had some time to bake
in the standard library. This commits performs a sweep over the modules adding
various stability tags.
The following APIs are now marked `#[stable]`
* `OsString`
* `OsStr`
* `OsString::from_string`
* `OsString::from_str`
* `OsString::new`
* `OsString::into_string`
* `OsString::push` (renamed from `push_os_str`, added an `AsOsStr` bound)
* various trait implementations for `OsString`
* `OsStr::from_str`
* `OsStr::to_str`
* `OsStr::to_string_lossy`
* `OsStr::to_os_string`
* various trait implementations for `OsStr`
* `CString`
* `CStr`
* `NulError`
* `CString::new` - this API's implementation may change as a result of
rust-lang/rfcs#912 but the usage of `CString::new(thing)` looks like it is
unlikely to change. Additionally, the `IntoBytes` bound is also likely to
change but the set of implementors for the trait will not change (despite the
trait perhaps being renamed).
* `CString::from_vec_unchecked`
* `CString::as_bytes`
* `CString::as_bytes_with_nul`
* `NulError::nul_position`
* `NulError::into_vec`
* `CStr::from_ptr`
* `CStr::as_ptr`
* `CStr::to_bytes`
* `CStr::to_bytes_with_nul`
* various trait implementations for `CStr`
The following APIs remain `#[unstable]`
* `OsStr*Ext` traits remain unstable as the organization of `os::platform` is
uncertain still and the traits may change location.
* `AsOsStr` remains unstable as generic conversion traits are likely to be
rethought soon.
The following APIs were deprecated
* `OsString::push_os_str` is now called `push` and takes `T: AsOsStr` instead (a
superset of the previous functionality).

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.
In preparation for upcoming changes to the `Writer` trait (soon to be called
`Write`) this commit renames the current `write` method to `write_all` to match
the semantics of the upcoming `write_all` method. The `write` method will be
repurposed to return a `usize` indicating how much data was written which
differs from the current `write` semantics. In order to head off as much
unintended breakage as possible, the method is being deprecated now in favor of
a new name.
