Typeck: Disallow scalar casts to bare_fn.

Bare functions are another example of a scalar but non-numeric
type (like char) that should be handled separately in casts.
This disallows expressions like `0 as extern "Rust" fn() -> int;`.

It might be advantageous to allow casts between bare functions
and raw pointers in unsafe code in the future, to pass function
pointers between Rust and C.

Closes #8728
Fix path parsing
Remove type overflow checks from check_const.rs, refs #4220

The checks are now handled by the linter
Check inferred integer literals for overflows, closes #4220
Add build_lib_with_cfgs, build_bin_with_cfgs to rustpkg API. Closes #9944.
Introduce an io::Buffer trait

This trait is meant to abstract whether a reader is actually implemented with an
underlying buffer. For all readers which are implemented as such, we can
efficiently implement things like read_char, read_line, read_until, etc. There
are two required methods for managing the internal buffer, and otherwise
read_line and friends can all become default methods.

Closes #10334
add rust_trylock_little_lock

Try to acquire lock and succeed only if lock is not already held.
Uses TryEnterCriticalSection or pthread_mutex_trylock.
Add Window build directory to .gitignore
Implement native::IoFactory

This commit re-organizes the io::native module slightly in order to have a
working implementation of rtio::IoFactory which uses native implementations. The
goal is to seamlessly multiplex among libuv/native implementations wherever
necessary.

Right now most of the native I/O is unimplemented, but we have existing bindings
for file descriptors and processes which have been hooked up. What this means is
that you can now invoke println!() from libstd with no local task, no local
scheduler, and even without libuv.

There's still plenty of work to do on the native I/O factory, but this is the
first steps into making it an official portion of the standard library. I don't
expect anyone to reach into io::native directly, but rather only std::io
primitives will be used. Each std::io interface seamlessly falls back onto the
native I/O implementation if the local scheduler doesn't have a libuv one
(hurray trait ojects!)

test: Clean up xfail-{fast,win32} tests

Rename {struct-update,fsu}-moves-and-copies, since win32
failed to run the test since UAC prevents any executable whose
name contaning "update". (#10452)

Some tests related to #9205 are expected to fail on gcc 4.8,
so they are marked as `xfail-win32` instead of `xfail-fast`.

Some tests using `extra::tempfile` fail on win32 due to #10462.
Mark them as `xfail-win32`.

Add shootout meteor contest benchmark.

This implementation of the meteor contest implements:

 - pregenetation of every feasible placement of the pieces on the

 - filtering of placement that implies unfeasible board
