Added home_for_io_with_sched variant. Temporarily making IO unkillable.
Make json::to_xxx(&Json) fns Json::to_xxx(&self)

to_str, to_pretty_str, to_writer, and to_pretty_writer were at the top
level of extra::json, this moves them into an impl for Json to match
with what's been done for the rest of libextra and libstd.
Make getopts count (and thus align/paginate) in terms of codepoints not bytes.
Use the proper monomorphized ty::t for llvm alias hints. Closes #7260.
Rename {Reader,Writer}ByteConversions methods

The method names in std::rt::io::extensions::WriterByteConversions are
the same as those in std::io::WriterUtils and a resolve error causes
rustc to fail after trying to find an impl of io::Writer instead of
trying to look for rt::io::Writer as well.

Same goes for ReaderByteConversions.
