Currently, the parser doesn't give any context when it finds an unclosed
delimiter and it's not EOF. Report the most recent unclosed delimiter, to help
the user along.
Closes#10636
Standardize the is_sep() functions to be the same in both posix and
windows, and re-export from path. Update extra::glob to use this.
Remove the usage of either, as it's going away.
Move the WindowsPath-specific methods out of WindowsPath and make them
top-level functions of path::windows instead. This way you cannot
accidentally write code that will fail to compile on non-windows
architectures without typing ::windows anywhere.
Remove GenericPath::from_c_str() and just impl BytesContainer for
CString instead.
Remove .join_path() and .push_path() and just implement BytesContainer
for Path instead.
Remove FilenameDisplay and add a boolean flag to Display instead.
Remove .each_parent(). It only had one caller, so just inline its
definition there.
Rewrite these methods as methods on Display and FilenameDisplay. This
turns
do path.with_display_str |s| { ... }
into
do path.display().with_str |s| { ... }
Add a new trait BytesContainer that is implemented for both byte vectors
and strings.
Convert Path::from_vec and ::from_str to one function, Path::new().
Remove all the _str-suffixed mutation methods (push, join, with_*,
set_*) and modify the non-suffixed versions to use BytesContainer.
Remove the old path.
Rename path2 to path.
Update all clients for the new path.
Also make some miscellaneous changes to the Path APIs to help the
adoption process.
There's currently a fair amount of code which is being ignored on unnamed blocks
(which are the default now), and I opted to leave it commented out for now. I
intend on very soon revisiting on how we perform linking with extern crates in
an effort to support static linking.
It's unclear to me why these currently aren't allowed, and my best guess is that
a long time ago we didn't strip the ast of cfg nodes before syntax expansion.
Now that this is done, I'm not certain that we should continue to prohibit this
functionality.
This is a step in the right direction towards #5605, because now we can add an
empty `std::macros` module to the documentation with a bunch of empty macros
explaining how they're supposed to be used.

r? anybody It's more helpful to list the span of each open delimiter seen so far
than to print out an error with the span of the last position in the file.
Closes#2354
For the benefit of the pretty printer we want to keep track of how
string literals in the ast were originally represented in the source
code.
This commit changes parser functions so they don't extract strings from
the token stream without at least also returning what style of string
literal it was. This is stored in the resulting ast node for string
literals, obviously, for the package id in `extern mod = r"package id"`
view items, for the inline asm in `asm!()` invocations.
For `asm!()`'s other arguments or for `extern "Rust" fn()` items, I just
the style of string, because it seemed disproportionally cumbersome to
thread that information through the string processing that happens with
those string literals, given the limited advantage raw string literals
would provide in these positions.
The other syntax extensions don't seem to store passed string literals
in the ast, so they also discard the style of strings they parse.

Replaces existing tests for removed obsolete-syntax errors with tests
for the resulting regular errors, adds a test for each of the removed
parser errors to make sure that obsolete forms don't start working
again, removes some obsolete/superfluous tests that were now failing.
Deletes some amount of dead code in the parser, also includes some small
changes to parser error messages to accomodate new tests.
This slurps up everything inside of an 'extern' block into the enclosing module
in order to document them. The documentation must be on the items themselves,
and they'll show up next to everything else on the module index pages.
Closes#5953
