librustc: Apply null pointer optimization to slices, closures and trait
objects.
librustc: Remove match arm since we don't allow enum to float casts.
librustc: Don't create &[T] slices with NULL as the ptr.
Add tests for null pointer opt.
librustc: Accept type aliases for structures in structure literals and
structure patterns.

Closes #4508.
libcore: Fix Items iterator for zero sized types.
librustc: Disallow modules and types from having the same name.

This will break code that looks like:

    struct Foo {
        ...
    }

    mod Foo {
        ...
    }

Change this code to:

    struct Foo {
        ...
    }

    impl Foo {
        ...
    }

Or rename the module.

Closes #15205.

librustc (RFC #34): Implement the new `Index` and `IndexMut` traits.

This will break code that used the old `Index` trait. Change this code
to use the new `Index` traits. For reference, here are their signatures:

    pub trait Index<Index,Result> {
        fn index<'a>(&'a self, index: &Index) -> &'a Result;
    }
    pub trait IndexMut<Index,Result> {
        fn index_mut<'a>(&'a mut self, index: &Index) -> &'a mut Result;
    }

Closes #6515.

Extend the null ptr optimization to work with slices, closures, procs, & trait objects by using the internal pointers as the discriminant.
